For DFS root mounts that contain a prefix path, do not change them after failover. E.g., if the user mounts //srvA/root/dir1 and then lost connection to srvA, it will reconnect to //srvB/root/dir1 In case of DFS links, which may resolve to different prefix paths depending on their list of targets, the following must be supported: - mount //srvA/root/link/bar - connect to //srvA/share - set prefix path to "bar" - lost connection to srvA - reconnect to next target: //srvB/share/foo - set new prefix path to "foo/bar" In cifs_tree_connect(), check the server_type field of the cached DFS referral to determine whether or not prefix path should be updated.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
