convert fuse_ctl

2025-11-16T06:35:03+00:00

objects are created in fuse_ctl_add_dentry() by d_alloc_name()+d_add(), removed by simple_remove_by_name(). What we return is a borrowed reference - it is valid until the call of fuse_ctl_remove_conn() and we depend upon the exclusion (on fuse_mutex) for safety. Return value is used only within the caller (fuse_ctl_add_conn()). Replace d_add() with d_make_persistent() + dput(). dput() is paired with d_alloc_name() and return value is the result of d_make_persistent(). Acked-by: Miklos Szeredi Signed-off-by: Al Viro

new helper: simple_remove_by_name()

2025-11-16T06:35:01+00:00

simple_recursive_removal(), but instead of victim dentry it takes parent + name. Used to be open-coded in fs/fuse/control.c, but there's no need to expose the guts of that thing there and there are other potential users, so let's lift it into libfs...

fuse_ctl_add_conn(): fix nlink breakage in case of early failure

2025-11-16T06:35:01+00:00

fuse_ctl_remove_conn() used to decrement the link count of root manually; that got subsumed by simple_recursive_removal(), but in case when subdirectory creation has failed the latter won't get called. Just move the modification of parent's link count into fuse_ctl_add_dentry() to keep the things simple. Allows to get rid of the nlink argument as well...

fuse_ctl: use simple_recursive_removal()

easier that way - no need to keep that array of dentry references, etc. Reviewed-by: Christian Brauner Signed-off-by: Al Viro

[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out

2024-09-27T15:18:43+00:00

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441 ("fs: remove no_llseek") To quote that commit, At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek - git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do sed -i '/\/d' $i done would do it. Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the form .llseek = no_llseek, so it's obviously safe.

fuse: remove unneeded lock which protecting update of congestion_threshold

2024-03-06T10:07:51+00:00

Commit 670d21c6e17f6 ("fuse: remove reliance on bdi congestion") change how congestion_threshold is used and lock in fuse_conn_congestion_threshold_write is not needed anymore. 1. Access to supe_block is removed along with removing of bdi congestion. Then down_read(&fc->killsb) which protecting access to super_block is no needed. 2. Compare num_background and congestion_threshold without holding bg_lock. Then there is no need to hold bg_lock to update congestion_threshold. Signed-off-by: Kemeng Shi Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

fuse: Remove the control interface for virtio-fs

2022-07-21T14:06:19+00:00

The commit 15c8e72e88e0 ("fuse: allow skipping control interface and forced unmount") tries to remove the control interface for virtio-fs since it does not support aborting requests which are being processed. But it doesn't work now. This patch fixes it by skipping creating the control interface if fuse_conn->no_control is set.

fuse: remove reliance on bdi congestion

2022-03-22T22:57:00+00:00

The bdi congestion tracking in not widely used and will be removed. Fuse is one of a small number of filesystems that uses it, setting both the sync (read) and async (write) congestion flags at what it determines are appropriate times. The only remaining effect of the sync flag is to cause read-ahead to be skipped. The only remaining effect of the async flag is to cause (some) WB_SYNC_NONE writes to be skipped. So instead of setting the flags, change: - .readahead to stop when it has submitted all non-async pages for read. - .writepages to do nothing if WB_SYNC_NONE and the flag would be set - .writepage to return AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE if WB_SYNC_NONE and the flag would be set. The writepages change causes a behavioural change in that pageout() can now return PAGE_ACTIVATE instead of PAGE_KEEP, so SetPageActive() will be called on the page which (I think) will further delay the next attempt at writeout. This might be a good thing. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/164549983737.9187.2627117501000365074.stgit@noble.brown Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Cc: Anna Schumaker Cc: Chao Yu Cc: Darrick J.
