Subject: [PATCH 3/5] cifs: negotiate chained SMB2 compression capabilities
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 00:15:41 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260610151543.25218-4-linkinjeon@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260610151543.25218-1-linkinjeon@kernel.org>
Advertise LZ77 and Pattern_V1 with chained transform support in the
SMB 3.1.1 compression negotiate context. Validate the server's returned
algorithm list and flags, then retain the negotiated capabilities for a
future compressed transform receive implementation.
This patch only negotiates capabilities. It does not request compressed
READ responses or add a compressed transform receive path.
