When we SMB3 mounted with mapchars (to allow reserved characters : \ / > < * ? via the Unicode Windows to POSIX remap range) empty paths (eg when we open "" to query the root of the SMB3 directory on mount) were not null terminated so we sent garbarge as a path name on empty paths which caused SMB2/SMB2.1/SMB3 mounts to fail when mapchars was specified. mapchars is particularly important since Unix Extensions for SMB3 are not supported (yet) Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Disseldorp <ddiss@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/cifs/cifs_unicode.c | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) --- a/fs/cifs/cifs_unicode.c +++ b/fs/cifs/cifs_unicode.c @@ -290,7 +290,8 @@ int cifsConvertToUTF16(__le16 *target, const char *source, int srclen, const struct nls_table *cp, int mapChars) { - int i, j, charlen; + int i, charlen; + int j = 0; char src_char; __le16 dst_char; wchar_t tmp; @@ -298,12 +299,11 @@ cifsConvertToUTF16(__le16 *target, const if (!mapChars) return cifs_strtoUTF16(target, source, PATH_MAX, cp); - for (i = 0, j = 0; i < srclen; j++) { + for (i = 0; i < srclen; j++) { src_char = source[i]; charlen = 1; switch (src_char) { case 0: - put_unaligned(0, &target[j]); goto ctoUTF16_out; case ':': dst_char = cpu_to_le16(UNI_COLON); @@ -350,6 +350,7 @@ cifsConvertToUTF16(__le16 *target, const } ctoUTF16_out: + put_unaligned(0, &target[j]); /* Null terminate target unicode string */ return j; } Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from smfrench@xxxxxxxxx are queue-3.15/fs-cifs-fix-regression-in-cifs_create_mf_symlink.patch queue-3.15/cifs-fix-mount-failure-with-broken-pathnames-when-smb3-mount-with-mapchars-option.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
