fuse: add default_request_timeout and max_request_timeout sysctls

2025-03-31T12:59:27+00:00

Introduce two new sysctls, "default_request_timeout" and "max_request_timeout". These control how long (in seconds) a server can take to reply to a request. If the server does not reply by the timeout, then the connection will be aborted. The upper bound on these sysctl values is 65535. "default_request_timeout" sets the default timeout if no timeout is specified by the fuse server on mount. 0 (default) indicates no default timeout should be enforced. If the server did specify a timeout, then default_request_timeout will be ignored. "max_request_timeout" sets the max amount of time the server may take to reply to a request. 0 (default) indicates no maximum timeout. If max_request_timeout is set and the fuse server attempts to set a timeout greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use max_request_timeout as the timeout. Similarly, if default_request_timeout is greater than max_request_timeout, the system will use max_request_timeout as the timeout. If the server does not request a timeout and default_request_timeout is set to 0 but max_request_timeout is set, then the timeout will be max_request_timeout. Please note that these timeouts are not 100% precise. The request may take roughly an extra FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ seconds beyond the set max timeout due to how it's internally implemented. $ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0 $ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout: Invalid argument $ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout 65535 $ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 65535 $ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/default_request_timeout 0 $ sysctl -a | grep fuse.default_request_timeout fs.fuse.default_request_timeout = 0 [Luis Henriques: Limit the timeout to the range [FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ, fuse_max_req_timeout]] Signed-off-by: Joanne Koong Reviewed-by: Bernd Schubert Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky Reviewed-by: Luis Henriques Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable

2025-01-28T12:48:37+00:00

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net, drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function. Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata. This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the proc_handlers. Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command: Spatch: virtual patch @ depends on !(file in "net") disable optional_qualifier @ identifier table_name != { watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, iwcm_ctl_table, ucma_ctl_table, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table }; @@ + const struct ctl_table table_name [] = { ... }; sed: sed --in-place \ -e "s/struct ctl_table .table = &uts_kern/const struct ctl_table *table = \&uts_kern/" \ kernel/utsname_sysctl.c Reviewed-by: Song Liu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) # for kernel/trace/ Reviewed-by: Martin K.

fuse: enable dynamic configuration of fuse max pages limit (FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES)

2024-10-25T15:05:49+00:00

Introduce the capability to dynamically configure the max pages limit (FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES) through a sysctl. This allows system administrators to dynamically set the maximum number of pages that can be used for servicing requests in fuse. Previously, this is gated by FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES which is statically set to 256 pages. One result of this is that the buffer size for a write request is limited to 1 MiB on a 4k-page system. The default value for this sysctl is the original limit (256 pages). $ sysctl -a | grep max_pages_limit fs.fuse.max_pages_limit = 256 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 256 $ echo 1024 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit 1024 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 1024 $ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument $ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument $ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit 65535 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 65535 Signed-off-by: Joanne Koong Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik Reviewed-by: Sweet Tea Dorminy Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi
