[PATCH] Add full_path_type arg to cifs_build_path_to_root()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

When cifs_get_root() calls cifs_build_path_to_root(), it expects a full
path from the root, even in the presence of a DFS link.

e.g. in the case of a DFS link like

    //A/shareA/link -> //B/shareB/sub/dir/

When mounting shareA and doing a "cd link", cifs_get_root() was getting

    "//B/shareB//sub/dir"

Instead of

    "/sub/dir"

Resulting in

    sh: cd: link: No such file or directory

When the DFS link points to a share without a sub-dir suffix
(e.g. //A/shareA/link -> //B/shareB/) cifs_build_path_to_root() returns
an empty string which seems inconsistent. I would expect it have the
same behaviour as when there is a sub-dir and prefix the whole DFS UNC
path (it returns "" where I would expect "//B/shareB/"). This might be
a bug? I will try to return the expected path to see what happens.

I would like to know what you think.

There are 2 ways to fix this:
- never prefix an UNC path, even when using a DFS link i.e. remove all
  code dealing with DFS from cifs_build_path_to_root)
- add a new arg to decide the behaviour of cifs_build_path_to_root().

The attached patch implements the second solution and fixes the problem.
- lets the caller of cifs_build_path_to_root() decide the behaviour via
  a new argument.
- make cifs_get_root() always use a simple path.
- keep old behaviour on the other code paths (only one, in
  cifs_do_mount)

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fs/cifs: Add full_path_type arg to
 cifs_build_path_to_root()

Only add the server prefix in the case of a DFS link when explicitely
asked.

This function is called from:
- cifs_mount()
- cifs_get_root()

The later expects a full path from the root, even in the presence of a
DFS link.

e.g. in the case of a DFS link like

    //A/shareA/link -> //B/shareB/sub/dir/

When doing a "cd link", cifs_get_root() was getting

    "//B/shareB//sub/dir"

Instead of

    "/sub/dir"

Resulting in

    sh: cd: link: No such file or directory

This commit
- lets the caller of cifs_build_path_to_root() decide the behaviour via
  a new argument.
- make cifs_get_root() always use a simple path.

Thanks to Josef Cejka <jcejka@xxxxxxxx> for finding the bug&fix.
