The filenames for cifs documentation is not using the same convention as almost all Kernel documents is using. So, rename them to a more appropriate name. Then, manually convert the documentation files for CIFS to ReST. By doing a manual conversion, we can preserve the original author's style, while making it to look more like the other Kernel documents. Most of the conversion here is trivial. The most complex one was the README file (which was renamed to usage.rst). Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The author wishes to express his appreciation and thanks to:
|
|
Andrew Tridgell (Samba team) for his early suggestions about smb/cifs VFS
|
|
improvements. Thanks to IBM for allowing me time and test resources to pursue
|
|
this project, to Jim McDonough from IBM (and the Samba Team) for his help, to
|
|
the IBM Linux JFS team for explaining many esoteric Linux filesystem features.
|
|
Jeremy Allison of the Samba team has done invaluable work in adding the server
|
|
side of the original CIFS Unix extensions and reviewing and implementing
|
|
portions of the newer CIFS POSIX extensions into the Samba 3 file server. Thank
|
|
Dave Boutcher of IBM Rochester (author of the OS/400 smb/cifs filesystem client)
|
|
for proving years ago that very good smb/cifs clients could be done on Unix-like
|
|
operating systems. Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Urban Widmark, John
|
|
Newbigin and others for their work on the Linux smbfs module. Thanks to
|
|
the other members of the Storage Network Industry Association CIFS Technical
|
|
Workgroup for their work specifying this highly complex protocol and finally
|
|
thanks to the Samba team for their technical advice and encouragement.
