Subject: [RFC PATCH 00/11] smb/server: change notify support
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 03:16:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723031644.312866-1-chenxiaosong@chenxiaosong.com> (raw)
From: ChenXiaoSong <chenxiaosong@kylinos.cn>
Sorry for taking such a long time to complete the ksmbd change notify feature.
Over the past few months, I have been busy with the birth of my daughter and
my PhD-related tasks, which left me with limited time to work on it.
Once Gaël updates his patch ("ksmbd: defer CHANGE_NOTIFY completion instead of STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED"),
I will rebase my patchset on top of it.
To test this feature, the following patches need to be applied to cifs-utils and kernel smb client:
- cifs-utils: https://chenxiaosong.com/lkml/cifs-utils-parse-notify
- kernel smb client: https://chenxiaosong.com/lkml/cifs-improve-notify
The complete kernel client and server patches are also available at the following link:
https://chenxiaosong.com/repo/linux/ksmbd-change-notify
ChenXiaoSong (11):
smb/server: add debug type for change notify
smb/server: validate notify requests
smb/server: support canceling notify requests
smb/server: watch directories for changes
smb/server: keep notify watches on file handles
smb/server: save simple notify events
smb/server: save old names for rename notify events
smb/server: match rename notify events
smb/server: encode notify events
smb/server: send notify events to the client
smb/server: break directory leases before sending notify events
