+Version 1.61
+------------
+Fix append problem to Samba servers (files opened with O_APPEND could
+have duplicated data). Fix oops in cifs_lookup. Workaround problem
+mounting to OS/400 Netserve. Fix oops in cifs_get_tcp_session.
+Disable use of server inode numbers when server only
+partially supports them (e.g. for one server querying inode numbers on
+FindFirst fails but QPathInfo queries works). Fix oops with dfs in
+cifs_put_smb_ses. Fix mmap to work on directio mounts (needed
+for OpenOffice when on forcedirectio mount e.g.)
+
+Version 1.60
+-------------
+Fix memory leak in reconnect. Fix oops in DFS mount error path.
+Set s_maxbytes to smaller (the max that vfs can handle) so that
+sendfile will now work over cifs mounts again. Add noforcegid
+and noforceuid mount parameters. Fix small mem leak when using
+ntlmv2. Fix 2nd mount to same server but with different port to
+be allowed (rather than reusing the 1st port) - only when the
+user explicitly overrides the port on the 2nd mount.
+
+Version 1.59
+------------
+Client uses server inode numbers (which are persistent) rather than
+client generated ones by default (mount option "serverino" turned
+on by default if server supports it). Add forceuid and forcegid
+mount options (so that when negotiating unix extensions specifying
+which uid mounted does not immediately force the server's reported
+uids to be overridden). Add support for scope mount parm. Improve
+hard link detection to use same inode for both. Do not set
+read-only dos attribute on directories (for chmod) since Windows
+explorer special cases this attribute bit for directories for
+a different purpose.
+
+Version 1.58
+------------
+Guard against buffer overruns in various UCS-2 to UTF-8 string conversions
+when the UTF-8 string is composed of unusually long (more than 4 byte) converted
+characters. Add support for mounting root of a share which redirects immediately
+to DFS target. Convert string conversion functions from Unicode to more
+accurately mark string length before allocating memory (which may help the
+rare cases where a UTF-8 string is much larger than the UCS2 string that
+we converted from). Fix endianness of the vcnum field used during
+session setup to distinguish multiple mounts to same server from different
+userids. Raw NTLMSSP fixed (it requires /proc/fs/cifs/experimental
+flag to be set to 2, and mount must enable krb5 to turn on extended security).
+Performance of file create to Samba improved (posix create on lookup
+removes 1 of 2 network requests sent on file create)
+
+Version 1.57
+------------
+Improve support for multiple security contexts to the same server. We
+used to use the same "vcnumber" for all connections which could cause
+the server to treat subsequent connections, especially those that
+are authenticated as guest, as reconnections, invalidating the earlier
+user's smb session. This fix allows cifs to mount multiple times to the
+same server with different userids without risking invalidating earlier
+established security contexts. fsync now sends SMB Flush operation
+to better ensure that we wait for server to write all of the data to
+server disk (not just write it over the network). Add new mount
+parameter to allow user to disable sending the (slow) SMB flush on
+fsync if desired (fsync still flushes all cached write data to the server).
+Posix file open support added (turned off after one attempt if server
+fails to support it properly, as with Samba server versions prior to 3.3.2)
+Fix "redzone overwritten" bug in cifs_put_tcon (CIFSTcon may allocate too
+little memory for the "nativeFileSystem" field returned by the server
+during mount). Endian convert inode numbers if necessary (makes it easier
+to compare inode numbers on network files from big endian systems).
+
+Version 1.56
+------------
+Add "forcemandatorylock" mount option to allow user to use mandatory
+rather than posix (advisory) byte range locks, even though server would
+support posix byte range locks. Fix query of root inode when prefixpath
+specified and user does not have access to query information about the
+top of the share. Fix problem in 2.6.28 resolving DFS paths to
+Samba servers (worked to Windows). Fix rmdir so that pending search
+(readdir) requests do not get invalid results which include the now
+removed directory. Fix oops in cifs_dfs_ref.c when prefixpath is not reachable
+when using DFS. Add better file create support to servers which support
+the CIFS POSIX protocol extensions (this adds support for new flags
+on create, and improves semantics for write of locked ranges).
+
+Version 1.55
+------------
+Various fixes to make delete of open files behavior more predictable
+(when delete of an open file fails we mark the file as "delete-on-close"
+in a way that more servers accept, but only if we can first rename the
+file to a temporary name). Add experimental support for more safely
+handling fcntl(F_SETLEASE). Convert cifs to using blocking tcp
+sends, and also let tcp autotune the socket send and receive buffers.
+This reduces the number of EAGAIN errors returned by TCP/IP in
+high stress workloads (and the number of retries on socket writes
+when sending large SMBWriteX requests). Fix case in which a portion of
+data can in some cases not get written to the file on the server before the
+file is closed. Fix DFS parsing to properly handle path consumed field,
+and to handle certain codepage conversions better. Fix mount and
+umount race that can cause oops in mount or umount or reconnect.
+
+Version 1.54
+------------
+Fix premature write failure on congested networks (we would give up
+on EAGAIN from the socket too quickly on large writes).
+Cifs_mkdir and cifs_create now respect the setgid bit on parent dir.
+Fix endian problems in acl (mode from/to cifs acl) on bigendian
+architectures. Fix problems with preserving timestamps on copying open
+files (e.g. "cp -a") to Windows servers. For mkdir and create honor setgid bit
+on parent directory when server supports Unix Extensions but not POSIX
+create. Update cifs.upcall version to handle new Kerberos sec flags
+(this requires update of cifs.upcall program from Samba). Fix memory leak
+on dns_upcall (resolving DFS referralls). Fix plain text password
+authentication (requires setting SecurityFlags to 0x30030 to enable
+lanman and plain text though). Fix writes to be at correct offset when
+file is open with O_APPEND and file is on a directio (forcediretio) mount.
+Fix bug in rewinding readdir directory searches. Add nodfs mount option.
+
+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. 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).
+
Version 1.46
------------
Support deep tree mounts. Better support OS/2, Win9x (DOS) time stamps.
EINVAL on readdir when filldir fails due to overwritten blocksize
(fixes FC problem). Return error in rename 2nd attempt retry (ie report
if rename by handle also fails, after rename by path fails, we were
-not reporting whether the retry worked or not).
+not reporting whether the retry worked or not). Fix NTLMv2 to
+work to Windows servers (mount with option "sec=ntlmv2").
