ksmbd: add procfs interface for runtime monitoring and statistics

2026-02-09T02:25:16+00:00

This patch introduces a /proc filesystem interface to ksmbd, providing visibility into the internal state of the SMB server. This allows administrators and developers to monitor active connections, user sessions, and opened files in real-time without relying on external tools or heavy debugging. Key changes include: - Connection Monitoring (/proc/fs/ksmbd/clients): Displays a list of active network connections, including client IP addresses, SMB dialects, credits, and last active timestamps. - Session Management (/proc/fs/ksmbd/sessions/): Adds a global sessions file to list all authenticated users and their session IDs. - Creates individual session entries (e.g., /proc/fs/ksmbd/sessions/) detailing capabilities (DFS, Multi-channel, etc.), signing/encryption algorithms, and connected tree shares. - File Tracking (/proc/fs/ksmbd/files): Shows all currently opened files across the server, including tree IDs, process IDs (PID), access modes (daccess/saccess), and oplock/lease states. - Statistics & Counters: Implements internal counters for global server metrics, such as the number of tree connections, total sessions, and processed read/write bytes.

smb: move smb_version_values to common/smbglob.h

2025-12-01T03:11:44+00:00

Merge the struct members of the server and the client: - req_capabilities: from client - header_preamble_size: from client - cap_unicode: from client - capabilities: from server, rename to req_capabilities - max_read_size: from server - max_write_size: from server - max_trans_size: from server - max_credits: from server - create_durable_size: from server - create_durable_v2_size: from server - create_mxac_size: from server - create_disk_id_size: from server - create_posix_size: from server Then move duplicate definitions to common header file.

ksmbd: do not set SMB2_GLOBAL_CAP_ENCRYPTION for SMB 3.1.1

2024-04-02T14:21:25+00:00

SMB2_GLOBAL_CAP_ENCRYPTION flag should be used only for 3.0 and 3.0.2 dialects. This flags set cause compatibility problems with other SMB clients.

ksmbd: add support for durable handles v1/v2

2024-03-12T05:36:39+00:00

Durable file handles allow reopening a file preserved on a short network outage and transparent client reconnection within a timeout. i.e. Durable handles aren't necessarily cleaned up when the opening process terminates. This patch add support for durable handle version 1 and 2. To prove durable handles work on ksmbd, I have tested this patch with the following smbtorture tests: smb2.durable-open.open-oplock smb2.durable-open.open-lease smb2.durable-open.reopen1 smb2.durable-open.reopen1a smb2.durable-open.reopen1a-lease smb2.durable-open.reopen2 smb2.durable-open.reopen2a smb2.durable-open.reopen2-lease smb2.durable-open.reopen2-lease-v2 smb2.durable-open.reopen3 smb2.durable-open.reopen4 smb2.durable-open.delete_on_close2 smb2.durable-open.file-position smb2.durable-open.lease smb2.durable-open.alloc-size smb2.durable-open.read-only smb2.durable-v2-open.create-blob smb2.durable-v2-open.open-oplock smb2.durable-v2-open.open-lease smb2.durable-v2-open.reopen1 smb2.durable-v2-open.reopen1a smb2.durable-v2-open.reopen1a-lease smb2.durable-v2-open.reopen2 smb2.durable-v2-open.reopen2b Signed-off-by: Namjae Jeon Signed-off-by: Steve French
