Support for faster packet signing (using GMAC instead of CMAC) can now be negotiated to some newer servers, including Windows. See MS-SMB2 section 2.2.3.17. This patch adds support for sending the new negotiate context with the first of three supported signing algorithms (AES-CMAC) and decoding the response. A followon patch will add support for sending the other two (including AES-GMAC, which is fastest) and changing the signing algorithm used based on what was negotiated. To allow the client to request GMAC signing set module parameter "enable_negotiate_signing" to 1.

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.
