When FUSE_OPEN returns ENOSYS, the no_open bit is set on the connection.
Because the FUSE_RELEASE and FUSE_RELEASEDIR paths share code, this
incorrectly caused the FUSE_RELEASEDIR request to be dropped and never sent
to userspace.
Pass an isdir bool to distinguish between FUSE_RELEASE and FUSE_RELEASEDIR
inside of fuse_file_put.

Commit ab2257e994 ("fuse: reduce size of struct fuse_inode") moved parts
of fields related to writeback on regular file and to directory caching
into a union. However fuse_fsync_common() called from fuse_dir_fsync()
touches some writeback related fields, resulting in a crash.
Move writeback related parts from fuse_fsync_common() to fuse_fysnc().

FUSE file reads are cached in the page cache, but symlink reads are
not. This patch enables FUSE READLINK operations to be cached which
can improve performance of some FUSE workloads.
In particular, I'm working on a FUSE filesystem for access to source
code and discovered that about a 10% improvement to build times is
achieved with this patch (there are a lot of symlinks in the source

This patch adds the infrastructure for more fine grained attribute
invalidation. Currently only 'atime' is invalidated separately.
The use of this infrastructure is extended to the statx(2) interface, which
for now means that if only 'atime' is invalid and STATX_ATIME is not
specified in the mask argument, then no GETATTR request will be generated.

Writeback caching currently allocates requests with the maximum number of
possible pages, while the actual number of pages per request depends on a
couple of factors that cannot be determined when the request is allocated
(whether page is already under writeback, whether page is contiguous with
previous pages already added to a request).
This patch allows such requests to start with no page allocation (all pages
inline) and grow the page array on demand.
If the max_pages tunable remains the default value, then this will mean
just one allocation that is the same size as before. If the tunable is
larger, then this adds at most 3 additional memory allocations (which is
generously compensated by the improved performance from the larger
request).

Replace FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ with the configurable parameter max_pages to
improve performance.
Old RFC with detailed description of the problem and many fixes by Mitsuo
Hayasaka (mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com):
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/5/136
We've encountered performance degradation and fixed it on a big and complex
virtual environment.
Environment to reproduce degradation and improvement:
1. Add lag to user mode FUSE
Add nanosleep(&(struct timespec){ 0, 1000 }, NULL); to xmp_write_buf in
passthrough_fh.c
2. patch UM fuse with configurable max_pages parameter. The patch will be
provided latter.
3. run test script and perform test on tmpfs
fuse_test()
{
cd /tmp
mkdir -p fusemnt
passthrough_fh -o max_pages=$1 /tmp/fusemnt
grep fuse /proc/self/mounts
dd conv=fdatasync oflag=dsync if=/dev/zero of=fusemnt/tmp/tmp \
count=1K bs=1M 2>&1 | grep -v records
rm fusemnt/tmp/tmp
killall passthrough_fh
}
Test results:
passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \
rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0 0 0
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.73867 s, 618 MB/s
passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \

1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.15643 s, 928 MB/s
Obviously with bigger lag the difference between 'before' and 'after'
will be more significant.

case increment the version of the cache and reset to an empty state.

The cache is only used if it's completed, not while it's still being
filled; this constraint could be lifted later, if it turns out to be
useful.
Introduce state in struct fuse_file that indicates the position within the
cache. After a seek, reset the position to the beginning of the cache and
search the cache for the current position. If the current position is not
found in the cache, then fall back to uncached readdir.
It can also happen that page(s) disappear from the cache, in which case we
must also fall back to uncached readdir.

This patch just adds the cache filling functions, which are invoked if
FOPEN_CACHE_DIR flag is set in the OPENDIR reply.
Cache reading and cache invalidation are added by subsequent patches.
The directory cache uses the page cache. Directory entries are packed into
a page in the same format as in the READDIR reply. A page only contains
whole entries, the space at the end of the page is cleared. The page is
locked while being modified.
Multiple parallel readdirs on the same directory can fill the cache; the
only constraint is that continuity must be maintained (d_off of last entry
points to position of current entry).

We noticed the performance bottleneck in FUSE running our Virtuozzo storage

The patch introduces hash table to reduce the number of iterations, we do
in this function. Hash generating algorithm is taken from hash_add()

In order to support mounts from namespaces other than init_user_ns, fuse
must translate uids and gids to/from the userns of the process servicing
requests on /dev/fuse. This patch does that, with a couple of restrictions
on the namespace:
- The userns for the fuse connection is fixed to the namespace
from which /dev/fuse is opened.
- The namespace must be the same as s_user_ns.
These restrictions simplify the implementation by avoiding the need to pass
around userns references and by allowing fuse to rely on the checks in
setattr_prepare for ownership changes. Either restriction could be relaxed
in the future if needed.
For cuse the userns used is the opener of /dev/cuse. Semantically the cuse
support does not appear safe for unprivileged users. Practically the
permissions on /dev/cuse only make it accessible to the global root user.
If something slips through the cracks in a user namespace the only users
who will be able to use the cuse device are those users mapped into the
user namespace.
Translation in the posix acl is updated to use the uuser namespace of the
filesystem. Avoiding cases which might bypass this translation is handled
in a following change.
This change is stronlgy based on a similar change from Seth Forshee and
Dongsu Park.

Currently the userspace has no way of knowing whether the fuse

for filesystems to free the mountpoint after abort without worrying
about removing some new mount.
The patch fixes it by returning different errors when userspace reads
from /dev/fuse (-ENODEV for umount and -ECONNABORTED for abort).

Commit 8fba54aebb ("fuse: direct-io: don't dirty ITER_BVEC pages") fixes
the ITER_BVEC page deadlock for direct io in fuse by checking in
fuse_direct_io(), whether the page is a bvec page or not, before locking
it. However, this check is missed when the "async_dio" mount option is
enabled. In this case, set_page_dirty_lock() is called from the req->end
callback in request_end(), when the fuse thread is returning from userspace
to respond to the read request. This will cause the same deadlock because
the bvec condition is not checked in this path.
Here is the stack of the deadlocked thread, while returning from userspace:

When the userspace process servicing fuse requests is running in
a pid namespace then pids passed via the fuse fd are not being
translated into that process' namespace. Translation is necessary
for the pid to be useful to that process.
Since no use case currently exists for changing namespaces all
translations can be done relative to the pid namespace in use
when fuse_conn_init() is called. For fuse this translates to
mount time, and for cuse this is when /dev/cuse is opened. IO for
this connection from another namespace will return errors.
Requests from processes whose pid cannot be translated into the
target namespace will have a value of 0 for in.h.pid.

I'd prefer to feed that separately from the assorted fixes (those are

While sending the blocking directIO in fuse, the write request is broken
into sub-requests, each of default size 128k and all the requests are sent
in non-blocking background mode if async_dio mode is supported by libfuse.
The process which issue the write wait for the completion of all the
sub-requests. Sending multiple requests parallely gives a chance to perform
parallel writes in the user space fuse implementation if it is
multi-threaded and hence improves the performance.
When there is a size extending aio dio write, we switch to blocking mode so
that we can properly update the size of the file after completion of the
writes. However, in this situation all the sub-requests are sent in
serialized manner where the next request is sent only after receiving the
reply of the current request. Hence the multi-threaded user space
implementation is not utilized properly.
This patch changes the size extending aio dio behavior to exactly follow
blocking dio. For multi threaded fuse implementation having 10 threads and
using buffer size of 64MB to perform async directIO, we are getting double
the speed.

Negotiate with userspace filesystems whether they support parallel readdir
and lookup. Disable parallelism by default for fear of breaking fuse
filesystems.

Fixes: 9902af79c0 ("parallel lookups: actual switch to rwsem")
Fixes: d9b3dbdcfd ("fuse: switch to ->iterate_shared()")
The 'reqs' member of fuse_io_priv serves two purposes. First is to track
the number of oustanding async requests to the server and to signal that
the io request is completed. The second is to be a reference count on the
structure to know when it can be freed.
For sync io requests these purposes can be at odds. fuse_direct_IO() wants
to block until the request is done, and since the signal is sent when
'reqs' reaches 0 it cannot keep a reference to the object. Yet it needs to
use the object after the userspace server has completed processing
requests. This leads to some handshaking and special casing that it
needlessly complicated and responsible for at least one race condition.
It's much cleaner and safer to maintain a separate reference count for the
object lifecycle and to let 'reqs' just be a count of outstanding requests
to the userspace server. Then we can know for sure when it is safe to free
the object without any handshaking or special cases.
The catch here is that most of the time these objects are stack allocated
and should not be freed. Initializing these objects with a single reference
that is never released prevents accidental attempts to free the objects.
