smb: client: handle unlink(2) of files open by different clients

Browse source

In order to identify whether a certain file is open by a different
client, start the unlink process by sending a compound request of
CREATE(DELETE_ON_CLOSE) + CLOSE with only FILE_SHARE_DELETE bit set in
smb2_create_req::ShareAccess.  If the file is currently open, then the
server will fail the request with STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION, in which
case we'll map it to -EBUSY, so __cifs_unlink() will fall back to
silly-rename the file.

This fixes the following case where open(O_CREAT) fails with
-ENOENT (STATUS_DELETE_PENDING) due to file still open by a different
client.

* Before patch

$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt/1 -o ...,nosharesock
$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt/2 -o ...,nosharesock
$ cd /mnt/1
$ touch foo
$ exec 3<>foo
$ cd /mnt/2
$ rm foo
$ touch foo
touch: cannot touch 'foo': No such file or directory
$ exec 3>&-

* After patch

$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt/1 -o ...,nosharesock
$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt/2 -o ...,nosharesock
$ cd /mnt/1
$ touch foo
$ exec 3<>foo
$ cd /mnt/2
$ rm foo
$ touch foo
$ exec 3>&-
