Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6
Pull CIFS fixes from Steve French: "Two minor cifs fixes and a minor documentation cleanup for cifs.txt" * 'for-next' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6: cifs: update cifs.txt and remove some outdated infos cifs: Avoid calling unlock_page() twice in cifs_readpage() when using fscache cifs: Do not take a reference to the page in cifs_readpage_worker()

This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System
|
||||
(CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
|
||||
(SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
|
||||
PC operating systems. CIFS is fully supported by current network
|
||||
file servers such as Windows 2000, Windows 2003 (including
|
||||
Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
|

PC operating systems. New and improved versions of CIFS are now
|

called SMB2 and SMB3. These dialects are also supported by the

CIFS VFS module. CIFS is fully supported by network

file servers such as Windows 2000, 2003, 2008 and 2012
|

as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
|

server support for Linux and many other operating systems), so
|

this network filesystem client can mount to a wide variety of
|
||||
servers. The smbfs module should be used instead of this cifs module
|
||||
for mounting to older SMB servers such as OS/2. The smbfs and cifs
|
||||
modules can coexist and do not conflict. The CIFS VFS filesystem
|
||||
module is designed to work well with servers that implement the
|
||||
newer versions (dialects) of the SMB/CIFS protocol such as Samba,

the program written by Andrew Tridgell that turns any Unix host

be obtained from the project page and installed in the path in the same
