cifs: Fix changing times and read-only attr over SMB1 smb_set_file_info() function
Function CIFSSMBSetPathInfo() is not supported by non-NT servers and
returns error. Fallback code via open filehandle and CIFSSMBSetFileInfo()
does not work neither because CIFS_open() works also only on NT server.
Therefore currently the whole smb_set_file_info() function as a SMB1
callback for the ->set_file_info() does not work with older non-NT SMB
servers, like Win9x and others.
This change implements fallback code in smb_set_file_info() which will
works with any server and allows to change time values and also to set or
clear read-only attributes.
To make existing fallback code via CIFSSMBSetFileInfo() working with also
non-NT servers, it is needed to change open function from CIFS_open()
(which is NT specific) to cifs_open_file() which works with any server
(this is just a open wrapper function which choose the correct open
function supported by the server).
CIFSSMBSetFileInfo() is working also on non-NT servers, but zero time
values are not treated specially. So first it is needed to fill all time
values if some of them are missing, via cifs_query_path_info() call.
There is another issue, opening file in write-mode (needed for changing
attributes) is not possible when the file has read-only attribute set.
The only option how to clear read-only attribute is via SMB_COM_SETATTR
command. And opening directory is not possible neither and here the
SMB_COM_SETATTR command is the only option how to change attributes.
And CIFSSMBSetFileInfo() does not honor setting read-only attribute, so
for setting is also needed to use SMB_COM_SETATTR command.
Existing code in cifs_query_path_info() is already using SMB_COM_GETATTR as
a fallback code path (function SMBQueryInformation()), so introduce a new
function SMBSetInformation which will implement SMB_COM_SETATTR command.
My testing showed that Windows XP SMB1 client is also using SMB_COM_SETATTR
command for setting or clearing read-only attribute against non-NT server.
So this can prove that this is the correct way how to do it.
With this change it is possible set all 4 time values and all attributes,
including clearing and setting read-only bit on non-NT SMB servers.
Tested against Win98 SMB1 server.
This change fixes "touch" command which was failing when called on existing
file. And fixes also "chmod +w" and "chmod -w" commands which were also
failing (as they are changing read-only attribute).
Note that this change depends on following change
"cifs: Improve cifs_query_path_info() and cifs_query_file_info()"
as it require to query all 4 time attribute values.
