+Version 1.62
+------------
+Add sockopt=TCP_NODELAY mount option. EA (xattr) routines hardened
+to more strictly handle corrupt frames.
+
+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
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.
+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).
