[cifs-protocol] Linux: want to cache CIFS file in local file cache
Hello! I am writing a Linux server, and I want to pre-fetch a number of CIFS files and cache locally. The files are on a CIFS share mounted as read only. I was planning on opening the file, calling posix_fadvise(,POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED) on the file descriptor, and then closing the file. Will this work? Is there a better way of doing this? Thanks!!

BTW: is it documented that the userParameters attribute is stored as utf8 string, while the samr interface uses UTF16?
