Subject: [PATCH v7.3 1/9] cifs: Remove code for querying FILE_INFO_STANDARD via CIFSSMBQPathInfo()
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2026 23:25:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261026222600.17323-2-pali@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261026222600.17323-1-pali@kernel.org>
Querying FILE_INFO_STANDARD structure via SMB_INFO_STANDARD level over
TRANS2_QUERY_PATH_INFORMATION or TRANS2_QUERY_FILE_INFORMATION command
(implemented in CIFSSMBQPathInfo() when called with argument legacy=true)
is mostly unusable.
Win9x SMB server returns over those commands the FILE_INFO_STANDARD
structure with swapped TIME and DATE fields, compared with [MS-CIFS] spec
and Samba server implementation. Therefore this command cannot be used
unless we know against which server implementation we are connected.
There are already two fallback mechanisms for querying information about
path which are working correctly against Samba, NT and Win9x servers:
CIFSFindFirst() and SMBQueryInformation() commands.
So remove TRANS2_QUERY_PATH_INFORMATION/SMB_INFO_STANDARD code from
CIFSSMBQPathInfo() function, when the function is called with legacy=true.
Note that there is no use of CIFSSMBQPathInfo(legacy=true) anymore.
