* fuse: add retrieve requestMiklos Szeredi2010-07-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace filesystem can request data to be retrieved from the inode's mapping. This request is synchronous and the retrieved data is queued as a new request. If the write to the fuse device returns an error then the retrieve request was not completed and a reply will not be sent. Only present pages are returned in the retrieve reply. Retrieving stops when it finds a non-present page and only data prior to that is returned. This request doesn't change the dirty state of pages. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
* fuse: add store requestMiklos Szeredi2010-07-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace filesystem can request data to be stored in the inode's mapping. This request is synchronous and has no reply. If the write to the fuse device returns an error then the store request was not fully completed (but may have updated some pages). If the stored data overflows the current file size, then the size is extended, similarly to a write(2) on the filesystem. Pages which have been completely stored are marked uptodate.

| * fuse: allow splice to move pagesMiklos Szeredi2010-05-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When splicing buffers to the fuse device with SPLICE_F_MOVE, try to move pages from the pipe buffer into the page cache. This allows populating the fuse filesystem's cache without ever touching the page contents, i.e. zero copy read capability. The following steps are performed when trying to move a page into the page cache: - buf->ops->confirm() to make sure the new page is uptodate - buf->ops->steal() to try to remove the new page from it's previous place - remove_from_page_cache() on the old page - add_to_page_cache_locked() on the new page If any of the above steps fail (non fatally) then the code falls back to copying the page. In particular ->steal() will fail if there are external references (other than the page cache and the pipe buffer) to the page. Also since the remove_from_page_cache() + add_to_page_cache_locked() are non-atomic it is possible that the page cache is repopulated in between the two and add_to_page_cache_locked() will fail. This could be fixed by creating a new atomic replace_page_cache_page() function. fuse_readpages_end() needed to be reworked so it works even if page->mapping is NULL for some or all pages which can happen if the add_to_page_cache_locked() failed. A number of sanity checks were added to make sure the stolen pages don't have weird flags set, etc... These could be moved into generic splice/steal code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS caches. Two notifications are added: 1) inode invalidation - invalidate cached attributes - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional) 2) dentry invalidation - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress. To prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.

* fuse: add export operationsMiklos Szeredi2008-07-251-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement export_operations, to allow fuse filesystems to be exported to NFS. This feature has been in the out-of-tree fuse module, and is widely used and tested. It has not been originally merged into mainline, because doing the NFS export in userspace was thought to be a cleaner and more efficient way of doing it, than through the kernel. While that is true, it would also have involved a lot of duplicated effort at reimplementing NFS exporting (all the different versions of the protocol). This effort was unfortunately not undertaken by anyone, so we are left with doing it the easy but less efficient way. If this feature goes in, the out-of-tree fuse module can go away, which would have several advantages: - not having to maintain two versions - less confusion for users - no bugs due to kernel API changes Comment from hch: - Use the same fh_type values as XFS, since we use the same fh encoding.

* fuse: add flag to turn on big writesMiklos Szeredi2008-05-131-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

* fuse: support writable mmapMiklos Szeredi2008-04-301-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Quoting Linus (3 years ago, FUSE inclusion discussions): "User-space filesystems are hard to get right. I'd claim that they are almost impossible, unless you limit them somehow (shared writable mappings are the nastiest part - if you don't have those, you can reasonably limit your problems by limiting the number of dirty pages you accept through normal "write()" calls)." Instead of attempting the impossible, I've just waited for the dirty page accounting infrastructure to materialize (thanks to Peter Zijlstra and others). This nicely solved the biggest problem: limiting the number of pages used for write caching. Some small details remained, however, which this largish patch attempts to address. It provides a page writeback implementation for fuse, which is completely safe against VM related deadlocks. Performance may not be very good for certain usage patterns, but generally it should be acceptable. It has been tested extensively with fsx-linux and bash-shared-mapping. Fuse page writeback design -------------------------- fuse_writepage() allocates a new temporary page with GFP_NOFS|__GFP_HIGHMEM. It copies the contents of the original page, and queues a WRITE request to the userspace filesystem using this temp page. The writeback is finished instantly from the MM's point of view: the page is removed from the radix trees, and the PageDirty and PageWriteback flags are cleared. For the duration of the actual write, the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter is incremented. The per-bdi writeback count is not decremented until the actual write completes. On dirtying the page, fuse waits for a previous write to finish before proceeding. This makes sure, there can only be one temporary page used at a time for one cached page. This approach is wasteful in both memory and CPU bandwidth, so why is this complication needed? The basic problem is that there can be no guarantee about the time in which the userspace filesystem will complete a write. It may be buggy or even malicious, and fail to complete WRITE requests. We don't want unrelated parts of the system to grind to a halt in such cases. Also a filesystem may need additional resources (particularly memory) to complete a WRITE request. There's a great danger of a deadlock if that allocation may wait for the writepage to finish. Currently there are several cases where the kernel can block on page writeback: - allocation order is larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER - page migration - throttle_vm_writeout (through NR_WRITEBACK) - sync(2) Of course in some cases (fsync, msync) we explicitly want to allow blocking. So for these cases new code has to be added to fuse, since the VM is not tracking writeback pages for us any more. As an extra safetly measure, the maximum dirty ratio allocated to a single fuse filesystem is set to 1% by default. This way one (or several) buggy or malicious fuse filesystems cannot slow down the rest of the system by hogging dirty memory. With appropriate privileges, this limit can be raised through '/sys/class/bdi/<bdi>/max_ratio'.

* fuse: fix race between getattr and writeMiklos Szeredi2007-10-181-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Getattr and lookup operations can be running in parallel to attribute changing operations, such as write and setattr. This means, that if for example getattr was slower than a write, the cached size attribute could be set to a stale value. To prevent this race, introduce a per-filesystem attribute version counter. This counter is incremented whenever cached attributes are modified, and the incremented value stored in the inode. Before storing new attributes in the cache, getattr and lookup check, using the version number, whether the attributes have been modified during the request's lifetime. If so, the returned attributes are not cached, because they might be stale. Thanks to Jakub Bogusz for the bug report and test program.

* fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directoriesMiklos Szeredi2007-10-171-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem defines it's own ->permission(). In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based checking would not allow it. So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode. This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems, just for the sake of fuse.

* fuse: refresh stale attributes in fuse_permission()Miklos Szeredi2007-10-171-5/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | fuse_permission() didn't refresh inode attributes before using them, even if the validity has already expired. Thanks to Junjiro Okajima for spotting this. Also remove some old code to unconditionally refresh the attributes on the root inode.

* fuse: add reference counting to fuse_fileMiklos Szeredi2007-10-171-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make lifetime of 'struct fuse_file' independent from 'struct file' by adding a reference counter and destructor. This will enable asynchronous page writeback, where it cannot be guaranteed, that the file is not released while a request with this file handle is being served. The actual RELEASE request is only sent when there are no more references to the fuse_file.

* fuse: fix reserved request wake upMiklos Szeredi2007-10-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Use wake_up_all instead of wake_up in put_reserved_req(), otherwise it is possible that the right task is not woken up. Also create a separate reserved_req_waitq in addition to the blocked_waitq, since they fulfill totally separate functions.

* fuse: update backing_dev_info congestion stateMiklos Szeredi2007-10-171-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Set the read and write congestion state if the request queue is close to blocking, and clear it when it's not. This prevents unnecessary blocking in readahead and (when writable mmaps are allowed) writeback.

* [PATCH] fuse: add DESTROY operationMiklos Szeredi2006-12-071-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a DESTROY operation for block device based filesystems. With the help of this operation, such a filesystem can flush dirty data to the device synchronously before the umount returns. This is needed in situations where the filesystem is assumed to be clean immediately after unmount (e.g. ejecting removable media).
