Hello, I would like to propose backporting this commit to stable releases: https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/3681c74d342db75b0d641ba60de27bf73e16e66b smb: client: handle lack of EA support in smb2_query_path_info() It is fixing support for querying special files (fifo/socket/block/char) over SMB2+ servers which do not support extended attributes and reparse point at the same time on one inode, which applied for older Windows servers (pre-Win10). I think that commit should have line: Fixes: ea41367b2a60 ("smb: client: introduce SMB2_OP_QUERY_WSL_EA") Note that the mention commit depends on: ca4b2c460743 ("fs/smb/client: avoid querying SMB2_OP_QUERY_WSL_EA for SMB3 POSIX") Pali
