+Version 1.53
+------------
+DFS support added (Microsoft Distributed File System client support needed
+for referrals which enable a hierarchical name space among servers).
+Disable temporary caching of mode bits to servers which do not support
+storing of mode (e.g. Windows servers, when client mounts without cifsacl
+mount option) and add new "dynperm" mount option to enable temporary caching
+of mode (enable old behavior). Fix hang on mount caused when server crashes
+tcp session during negotiate protocol.
+
+Version 1.52
+------------
+Fix oops on second mount to server when null auth is used.
+Enable experimental Kerberos support. Return writebehind errors on flush
+and sync so that events like out of disk space get reported properly on
+cached files. Fix setxattr failure to certain Samba versions. Fix mount
+of second share to disconnected server session (autoreconnect on this).
+Add ability to modify cifs acls for handling chmod (when mounted with
+cifsacl flag). Fix prefixpath path separator so we can handle mounts
+with prefixpaths longer than one directory (one path component) when
+mounted to Windows servers. Fix slow file open when cifsacl
+enabled. Fix memory leak in FindNext when the SMB call returns -EBADF.
+
+
+Version 1.51
+------------
+Fix memory leak in statfs when mounted to very old servers (e.g.
+Windows 9x). Add new feature "POSIX open" which allows servers
+which support the current POSIX Extensions to provide better semantics
+(e.g. delete for open files opened with posix open). Take into
+account umask on posix mkdir not just older style mkdir. Add
+ability to mount to IPC$ share (which allows CIFS named pipes to be
+opened, read and written as if they were files). When 1st tree
+connect fails (e.g. due to signing negotiation failure) fix
+leak that causes cifsd not to stop and rmmod to fail to cleanup
+cifs_request_buffers pool. Fix problem with POSIX Open/Mkdir on
+bigendian architectures. Fix possible memory corruption when
+EAGAIN returned on kern_recvmsg. Return better error if server
+requires packet signing but client has disabled it. When mounted
+with cifsacl mount option - mode bits are approximated based
+on the contents of the ACL of the file or directory. When cifs
+mount helper is missing convert make sure that UNC name
+has backslash (not forward slash) between ip address of server
+and the share name.
+
+Version 1.50
+------------
+Fix NTLMv2 signing. NFS server mounted over cifs works (if cifs mount is
+done with "serverino" mount option). Add support for POSIX Unlink
+(helps with certain sharing violation cases when server such as
+Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions). Add "nounix"
+mount option to allow disabling the CIFS Unix Extensions for just
+that mount. Fix hang on spinlock in find_writable_file (race when
+reopening file after session crash). Byte range unlock request to
+windows server could unlock more bytes (on server copy of file)
+than intended if start of unlock request is well before start of
+a previous byte range lock that we issued.
+
+Version 1.49
+------------
+IPv6 support. Enable ipv6 addresses to be passed on mount (put the ipv6
+address after the "ip=" mount option, at least until mount.cifs is fixed to
+handle DNS host to ipv6 name translation). Accept override of uid or gid
+on mount even when Unix Extensions are negotiated (it used to be ignored
+when Unix Extensions were ignored). This allows users to override the
+default uid and gid for files when they are certain that the uids or
+gids on the server do not match those of the client. Make "sec=none"
+mount override username (so that null user connection is attempted)
+to match what documentation said. Support for very large reads, over 127K,
+available to some newer servers (such as Samba 3.0.26 and later but
+note that it also requires setting CIFSMaxBufSize at module install
+time to a larger value which may hurt performance in some cases).
+Make sign option force signing (or fail if server does not support it).
+
+Version 1.48
+------------
+Fix mtime bouncing around from local idea of last write times to remote time.
+Fix hang (in i_size_read) when simultaneous size update of same remote file
+on smp system corrupts sequence number. Do not reread unnecessarily partial page
+(which we are about to overwrite anyway) when writing out file opened rw.
+When DOS attribute of file on non-Unix server's file changes on the server side
+from read-only back to read-write, reflect this change in default file mode
+(we had been leaving a file's mode read-only until the inode were reloaded).
+Allow setting of attribute back to ATTR_NORMAL (removing readonly dos attribute
+when archive dos attribute not set and we are changing mode back to writeable
+on server which does not support the Unix Extensions). Remove read only dos
+attribute on chmod when adding any write permission (ie on any of
+user/group/other (not all of user/group/other ie 0222) when
+mounted to windows. Add support for POSIX MkDir (slight performance
+enhancement and eliminates the network race between the mkdir and set
+path info of the mode).
+
+
Version 1.47
------------
Fix oops in list_del during mount caused by unaligned string.
+Fix file corruption which could occur on some large file
+copies caused by writepages page i/o completion bug.
Seek to SEEK_END forces check for update of file size for non-cached
-files.
+files. Allow file size to be updated on remote extend of locally open,
+non-cached file. Fix reconnect to newer Samba servers (or other servers
+which support the CIFS Unix/POSIX extensions) so that we again tell the
+server the Unix/POSIX cifs capabilities which we support (SetFSInfo).
+Add experimental support for new POSIX Open/Mkdir (which returns
+stat information on the open, and allows setting the mode).
