[PATCH 01/10] smb/client: reduce loop count in map_smb2_to_linux_error() by half
Posted by chenxiaosong.chenxiaosong@linux.dev 2 weeks, 1 day ago
From: ChenXiaoSong <chenxiaosong@kylinos.cn>

The smb2_error_map_table array currently has 1740 elements. When searching
for the last element and calling smb2_print_status(), 3480 comparisons
are needed.

The loop in smb2_print_status() is unnecessary, smb2_print_status() can be
removed, and only iterate over the array once, printing the message when
the target status code is found.

Posted by Steve French 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Have merged the first three patches (see below) in this series into
cifs-2.6.git for-next pending additional review and testing.   The
other seven may also be ok - but want to look more carefully at them,
more review appreciated

ba521f56912f (HEAD -> for-next, origin/for-next) smb: add two elements
to smb2_error_map_table array
905d8999d67d smb/client: remove unused elements from smb2_error_map_table array
26866d690bd1 smb/client: reduce loop count in map_smb2_to_linux_error() by half

Posted by ChenXiaoSong 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Thanks for your review.

I'll test these patches as soon as possible. Besides smbtorture and 
xfstests, what other testing tools are available for SMB?

Thanks,
ChenXiaoSong.
