Improvements to the SMB3.1.1 client on Linux have continued at a rapid pace over the past year. These allow Linux to better access Samba server, as well as the Cloud (Azure), NAS appliances, Windows systems, Macs and an ever increasing number of embedded Linux devices including those using the new smb3 kernel server Linux (ksmbd). The SMB3.1.1 client for Linux (cifs.ko) continues to be one of the most actively developed file systems on Linux and these improvements have made it possible to run additional workloads remotely. The exciting recent addition of the new kernel server also allows more rapid development and testing of optimizations for Linux. Over the past year, performance has dramatically improved with features like multichannel (allowing better parallelization of i/o and also utilization of multiple network devices simultaneously), with much faster encryption and signing, with better use of compounding and improved support for RDMA. Security has improved and alternative security models are now possible with the addition of modefromsid and idsfromsid and also better integration with Kerberos security tooling. New features have been added include the ability to swap over SMB3 and boot over SMB3. Quality continues to improve with more work on 'xfstests' and test automation - tooling (cifs-utils) continue to be extended to make use of SMB3.1.1 mounts easier. This presentation will describe and demonstrate the progress that has been made over the past year in the Linux kernel client in accessing servers using the SMB3.1.1 family of protocols. In addition recommendations on common configuration choices, and troubleshooting techniques will be discussed. Learning Objectives: What new features are now possible when accessing servers from Linux?,What new tools have been added to make it easier to use SMB3.1.1 mounts from Linux?,What new features are nearing completion that you should you expect to see in the near future?,How can I configure the security settings I need to use SMB3.1.1 for my workload?,How can I configure the client for optimal performance for my workload?
