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.

Use fuse_abort_conn() instead of fuse_conn_kill() in fuse_put_super().
This flushes and aborts requests still on any queues. But since we've

would be flushed when the fuse device is closed.
Next patches will rely on requests being flushed before the superblock is
destroyed.

difference there, and we can get rid of fuse_conn_kill().

The problem is:
1. write cached data to a file
2. read directly from the same file (via another fd)
The 2nd operation may read stale data, i.e. the one that was in a file
before the 1st op. Problem is in how fuse manages writeback.
When direct op occurs the core kernel code calls filemap_write_and_wait
to flush all the cached ops in flight. But fuse acks the writeback right
after the ->writepages callback exits w/o waiting for the real write to
happen. Thus the subsequent direct op proceeds while the real writeback
is still in flight. This is a problem for backends that reorder operation.
Fix this by making the fuse direct IO callback explicitly wait on the
in-flight writeback to finish.

open/release operations require userspace transitions to keep track
of the open count and to perform any FS-specific setup. However,
for some purely read-only FSs which don't need to perform any setup
at open/release time, we can avoid the performance overhead of
calling into userspace for open/release calls.
This patch adds the necessary support to the fuse kernel modules to prevent

As Maxim Patlasov pointed out, it's possible to get a dirty page while it's
copy is still under writeback, despite fuse_page_mkwrite() doing its thing
(direct IO).
This could result in two concurrent write request for the same offset, with
data corruption if they get mixed up.
To prevent this, fuse needs to check and delay such writes. This
implementation does this by:
1. check if page is still under writeout, if so create a new, single page
secondary request for it
2. chain this secondary request onto the in-flight request
2/a. if a seconday request for the same offset was already chained to the
in-flight request, then just copy the contents of the page and discard
the new secondary request. This makes sure that for each page will
have at most two requests associated with it
3. when the in-flight request finished, send off all secondary requests
chained onto it

Doing dput(parent) is not valid in RCU walk mode. In RCU mode it would
probably be okay to update the parent flags, but it's actually not
necessary most of the time...
So only set the FUSE_I_ADVISE_RDPLUS flag on the parent when the entry was
recently initialized by READDIRPLUS.
This is achieved by setting FUSE_I_INIT_RDPLUS on entries added by
READDIRPLUS and only dropping out of RCU mode if this flag is set.
FUSE_I_INIT_RDPLUS is cleared once the FUSE_I_ADVISE_RDPLUS flag is set in
the parent.

The way how fuse calls truncate_pagecache() from fuse_change_attributes()
is completely wrong. Because, w/o i_mutex held, we never sure whether
'oldsize' and 'attr->size' are valid by the time of execution of
truncate_pagecache(inode, oldsize, attr->size). In fact, as soon as we
released fc->lock in the middle of fuse_change_attributes(), we completely
loose control of actions which may happen with given inode until we reach
truncate_pagecache. The list of potentially dangerous actions includes
mmap-ed reads and writes, ftruncate(2) and write(2) extending file size.
The typical outcome of doing truncate_pagecache() with outdated arguments
is data corruption from user point of view. This is (in some sense)
acceptable in cases when the issue is triggered by a change of the file on
the server (i.e. externally wrt fuse operation), but it is absolutely
intolerable in scenarios when a single fuse client modifies a file without
any external intervention. A real life case I discovered by fsx-linux
looked like this:
1. Shrinking ftruncate(2) comes to fuse_do_setattr(). The latter sends
FUSE_SETATTR to the server synchronously, but before getting fc->lock ...
2. fuse_dentry_revalidate() is asynchronously called. It sends FUSE_LOOKUP
to the server synchronously, then calls fuse_change_attributes(). The
latter updates i_size, releases fc->lock, but before comparing oldsize vs
attr->size..
3. fuse_do_setattr() from the first step proceeds by acquiring fc->lock and
updating attributes and i_size, but now oldsize is equal to
outarg.attr.size because i_size has just been updated (step 2). Hence,
fuse_do_setattr() returns w/o calling truncate_pagecache().
4. As soon as ftruncate(2) completes, the user extends file size by
write(2) making a hole in the middle of file, then reads data from the hole
either by read(2) or mmap-ed read. The user expects to get zero data from
the hole, but gets stale data because truncate_pagecache() is not executed
yet.
The scenario above illustrates one side of the problem: not truncating the
page cache even though we should. Another side corresponds to truncating
page cache too late, when the state of inode changed significantly.
Theoretically, the following is possible:
1. As in the previous scenario fuse_dentry_revalidate() discovered that
i_size changed (due to our own fuse_do_setattr()) and is going to call
truncate_pagecache() for some 'new_size' it believes valid right now. But
by the time that particular truncate_pagecache() is called ...
2. fuse_do_setattr() returns (either having called truncate_pagecache() or
not -- it doesn't matter).
3. The file is extended either by write(2) or ftruncate(2) or fallocate(2).
4. mmap-ed write makes a page in the extended region dirty.
The result will be the lost of data user wrote on the fourth step.
The patch is a hotfix resolving the issue in a simplistic way: let's skip
dangerous i_size update and truncate_pagecache if an operation changing
file size is in progress. This simplistic approach looks correct for the
cases w/o external changes. And to handle them properly, more sophisticated
and intrusive techniques (e.g. NFS-like one) would be required. I'd like to
postpone it until the issue is well discussed on the mailing list(s).

The patch implements a framework to process an IO request asynchronously. The
idea is to associate several fuse requests with a single kiocb by means of
fuse_io_priv structure. The structure plays the same role for FUSE as 'struct
dio' for direct-io.c.
The framework is supposed to be used like this:
- someone (who wants to process an IO asynchronously) allocates fuse_io_priv
and initializes it setting 'async' field to non-zero value.
- as soon as fuse request is filled, it can be submitted (in non-blocking way)
by fuse_async_req_send()
- when all submitted requests are ACKed by userspace, io->reqs drops to zero
triggering aio_complete()
In case of IO initiated by libaio, aio_complete() will finish processing the
same way as in case of dio_complete() calling aio_complete(). But the
framework may be also used for internal FUSE use when initial IO request
was synchronous (from user perspective), but it's beneficial to process it
asynchronously. Then the caller should wait on kiocb explicitly and
aio_complete() will wake the caller up.
