Hi,

I am planning to backport cifs to get SMB2 support on kernel 3.0.35.

I see cifs backports from the link below which is till 4.9 kernel but I
need to backport to 3.0.35 and my requirement is only for SMB2 to mount
directories from Windows 10.
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxSMB3_build_backport

Wanted to know where to start and what should be the approach. Has anyone
already done this? Is this a huge task to get SMB2 support in 3.0.35 kernel?

Please advise.

Regards,
Manish
