actual state that these attributes must have. It is 6 by
default, which means that hidden and system must be
set, but not read-only. The configuration value is
calculated as the sum of the following components:
linksAreUnicode If this boolean variable is set to yes, the HP CIFS
Client stores faked links in Unicode format on the
server. This is incompatible with the CygWin32 format
for symbolic links, but allows lossless storage of client
paths. If it is set to no, symbolic links are more or less
compatible to those of CygWin32 on Windows, but a
conversion to the server character set is performed.
Regardless of this variable, the HP CIFS Client can
read symbolic link files in both formats.
attributesCacheTime
File attributes are cached for this amount of time (in
milliseconds).
dirCacheTime Directory contents are cached for this amount of time
(in milliseconds).
maxCachedFiles This is the maximum number of file objects that are
held as cache of NFS file handles. If an NFS file handle
is requested which is not in the cache, it must be looked
up recursively, which may result in a notable
performance loss. Recursive lookups are logged as rare
events.
dataCacheSize This is the size of the data cache that is allocated for
open files in bytes. The value is rounded to a multiple
of the cache's page size, which is derived from the
maximum transferable size. The page size will always
be a power of two. (move to cifs.dataCacheSize)
closeDelay This variable defines the time a file is kept open when
it is not used. The value is a dictionary with the
following keys:
