2019-07-10fuse: Add FOPEN_STREAM to use stream_open()Kirill Smelkov1-0/+2
commit bbd84f33652f852ce5992d65db4d020aba21f882 upstream. Starting from commit 9c225f2655e3 ("vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX") files opened even via nonseekable_open gate read and write via lock and do not allow them to be run simultaneously. This can create read vs write deadlock if a filesystem is trying to implement a socket-like file which is intended to be simultaneously used for both read and write from filesystem client. See commit 10dce8af3422 ("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without deadlock") for details and e.g. commit 581d21a2d02a ("xenbus: fix deadlock on writes to /proc/xen/xenbus") for a similar deadlock example on /proc/xen/xenbus. To avoid such deadlock it was tempting to adjust fuse_finish_open to use stream_open instead of nonseekable_open on just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flags, but grepping through Debian codesearch shows users of FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE, and in particular GVFS which actually uses offset in its read and write handlers https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=-%3Enonseekable+%3D https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1399-1481 so if we would do such a change it will break a real user. Add another flag (FOPEN_STREAM) for filesystem servers to indicate that the opened handler is having stream-like semantics; does not use file position and thus the kernel is free to issue simultaneous read and write request on opened file handle. This patch together with stream_open() should be added to stable kernels starting from v3.14+. This will allow to patch OSSPD and other FUSE filesystems that provide stream-like files to return FOPEN_STREAM | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE in open handler and this way avoid the deadlock on all kernel versions. This should work because fuse_finish_open ignores unknown open flags returned from a filesystem and so passing FOPEN_STREAM to a kernel that is not aware of this flag cannot hurt. In turn the kernel that is not aware of FOPEN_STREAM will be < v3.14 where just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE is sufficient to implement streams without read vs write deadlock.

2014-07-22fuse: add FUSE_NO_OPEN_SUPPORT flag to INITAndrew Gallagher1-0/+3
Here some additional changes to set a capability flag so that clients can detect when it's appropriate to return -ENOSYS from open. This amends the following commit introduced in 3.14: 7678ac50615d fuse: support clients that don't implement 'open' However we can only add the flag to 3.15 and later since there was no protocol version update in 3.14.

2014-04-28fuse: allow ctime flushing to userspaceMaxim Patlasov1-2/+5
The patch extends fuse_setattr_in, and extends the flush procedure (fuse_flush_times()) called on ->write_inode() to send the ctime as well as mtime. Signed-off-by: Maxim Patlasov <MPatlasov@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2014-04-28fuse: fuse: add time_gran to INIT_OUTMiklos Szeredi1-0/+7
Allow userspace fs to specify time granularity. This is needed because with writeback_cache mode the kernel is responsible for generating mtime and ctime, but if the underlying filesystem doesn't support nanosecond granularity then the cache will contain a different value from the one stored on the filesystem resulting in a change of times after a cache flush. Make the default granularity 1s. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2014-04-02fuse: Turn writeback cache onPavel Emelyanov1-1/+6
Introduce a bit kernel and userspace exchange between each-other on the init stage and turn writeback on if the userspace want this and mount option 'allow_wbcache' is present (controlled by fusermount). Also add each writable file into per-inode write list and call the generic_file_aio_write to make use of the Linux page cache engine.

2013-05-01fuse: add flag to turn on async direct IOMiklos Szeredi1-1/+6
Without async DIO write requests to a single file were always serialized. With async DIO that's no longer the case. So don't turn on async DIO by default for fear of breaking backward compatibility. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
2013-04-17fuse: fix type definitions in uapi headerMiklos Szeredi1-220/+216
Commit 7e98d53086d18c877cb44e9065219335184024de (Synchronize fuse header with one used in library) added #ifdef __linux__ around defines if it is not set. The kernel build is self-contained and can be built on non-Linux toolchains. After the mentioned commit builds on non-Linux toolchains will try to include stdint.h and fail due to -nostdinc, and then fail with a bunch of undefined type errors. Fix by checking for __KERNEL__ instead of __linux__ and using the standard int types instead of the linux specific ones.

2013-02-07fuse: allow control of adaptive readdirplus useEric Wong1-0/+3
For some filesystems (e.g. GlusterFS), the cost of performing a normal readdir and readdirplus are identical. Since adaptively using readdirplus has no benefit for those systems, give users/filesystems the option to control adaptive readdirplus use. v2 of this patch incorporates Miklos's suggestion to simplify the code, as well as improving consistency of macro names and documentation.

2013-01-24fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus supportAnand V. Avati1-0/+12
This patch implements readdirplus support in FUSE, similar to NFS. The payload returned in the readdirplus call contains 'fuse_entry_out' structure thereby providing all the necessary inputs for 'faking' a lookup() operation on the spot. If the dentry and inode already existed (for e.g. in a re-run of ls -l) then just the inode attributes timeout and dentry timeout are refreshed. With a simple client->network->server implementation of a FUSE based filesystem, the following performance observations were made: Test: Performing a filesystem crawl over 20,000 files with sh# time ls -lR /mnt Without readdirplus: Run 1: 18.1s Run 2: 16.0s Run 3: 16.2s With readdirplus: Run 1: 4.1s Run 2: 3.8s Run 3: 3.8s The performance improvement is significant as it avoided 20,000 upcalls calls (lookup). Cache consistency is no worse than what already is. Signed-off-by: Anand V. Avati <avati@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
