Hi Steven, Thank you for your email.
Someone from my team will be working with you and will be contacting you tomorrow. Thanks and regards, Sebastian Canevari Senior Support Escalation Engineer, US-CSS DSC PROTOCOL TEAM 7100 N Hwy 161, Irving, TX - 75039 "Las Colinas - LC2" Tel: +1 469 775 7849 e-mail: seba...@microsoft.com<mailto:seba...@microsoft.com> From: Steven Danneman [mailto:steven.danne...@isilon.com] Sent: Monday, November 30, 2009 5:58 PM To: Interoperability Documentation Help; cifs-proto...@samba.org; p...@tridgell.net Subject: SMB2 mixed lock & unlock requests in a single SMB_LOCK request Hello, I've come across another SMB2 locking issue that I can't find explicit documentation for in MS-SMB2 (v18.0). My first question, is whether a single SMB_LOCK request can contain both unlock and lock requests as the LockingAndX command type in SMBv1 could? The MS-SMB2 document hints that the answer to this question is "no" but it doesn't seem to explicitly state it anywhere. Section 2.2.26 states: "The SMB2 LOCK Request packet is sent by the client to either lock or unlock portions of a file." This statement is ambiguous as to whether the "or" is inclusive or exclusive. In my testing, sending both lock and unlock requests in a single SMB2 locking request returns a STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER. However, if the requests are ordered such that a unlock structure come first, the unlock request seems to succeed. The attached pcap, against W2K8R2 shows: 1) Packet 27-28: A single lock request succeeding on range 0-10. 2) Packet 29-30: A lock request with unlock(0-10) and lock(10-10) failing with INVALID_PARAMETER. 3) Packet 31-32: A lock request with lock(0-10) and lock(10-10) succeeding, showing that the previous request, though it returned an error, succeeded in unlocking. It seems to me the server behavior should be to return STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER without completing any of the lock/unlock requests when they are mixed. Both the fact that this isn't allowed, and the W2K8R2 behavior deviation should be documented.
