When a new inode is created, send its security context to server along with
creation request (FUSE_CREAT, FUSE_MKNOD, FUSE_MKDIR and FUSE_SYMLINK).
This gives server an opportunity to create new file and set security
context (possibly atomically). In all the configurations it might not be
possible to set context atomically.
Like nfs and ceph, use security_dentry_init_security() to dermine security
context of inode and send it with create, mkdir, mknod, and symlink
requests.
Following is the information sent to server.
fuse_sectx_header, fuse_secctx, xattr_name, security_context
- struct fuse_secctx_header
This contains total number of security contexts being sent and total
size of all the security contexts (including size of
fuse_secctx_header).
- struct fuse_secctx
This contains size of security context which follows this structure.
There is one fuse_secctx instance per security context.
- xattr name string
This string represents name of xattr which should be used while setting
security context.
- security context
This is the actual security context whose size is specified in
fuse_secctx struct.
Also add the FUSE_SECURITY_CTX flag for the `flags` field of the
fuse_init_out struct. When this flag is set the kernel will append the
security context for a newly created inode to the request (create, mkdir,
mknod, and symlink). The server is responsible for ensuring that the inode
appears atomically (preferrably) with the requested security context.
For example, If the server is using SELinux and backed by a "real" linux
file system that supports extended attributes it can write the security
context value to /proc/thread-self/attr/fscreate before making the syscall
to create the inode.

FUSE_INIT flags are close to running out, so add another 32bits worth of
space.
Add FUSE_INIT_EXT flag to the old flags field in fuse_init_in. If this
flag is set, then fuse_init_in is extended by 48bytes, in which a flags_hi
field is allocated to contain the high 32bits of the flags.
A flags_hi field is also added to fuse_init_out, allocated out of the
remaining unused fields.
Known userspace implementations of the fuse protocol have been checked to
accept the extended FUSE_INIT request, but this might cause problems with
other implementations. If that happens to be the case, the protocol

Add flag returned by FUSE_OPEN and FUSE_CREATE requests to avoid flushing
data cache on close.
Different filesystems implement ->flush() is different ways:
- Most disk filesystems do not implement ->flush() at all
- Some network filesystem (e.g. nfs) flush local write cache of
FMODE_WRITE file and send a "flush" command to server
- Some network filesystem (e.g. cifs) flush local write cache of
FMODE_WRITE file without sending an additional command to server
FUSE flushes local write cache of ANY file, even non FMODE_WRITE
and sends a "flush" command to server (if server implements it).
The FUSE implementation of ->flush() seems over agressive and
arbitrary and does not make a lot of sense when writeback caching is
disabled.
Instead of deciding on another arbitrary implementation that makes
sense, leave the choice of per-file flush behavior in the hands of
the server.

Even if POSIX doesn't mandate it, linux users legitimately expect sync() to
flush all data and metadata to physical storage when it is located on the
same system. This isn't happening with virtiofs though: sync() inside the
guest returns right away even though data still needs to be flushed from
the host page cache.
This is easily demonstrated by doing the following in the guest:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/foo bs=1M count=5K ; strace -T -e sync sync
5120+0 records in
5120+0 records out
5368709120 bytes (5.4 GB, 5.0 GiB) copied, 5.22224 s, 1.0 GB/s
sync() = 0 <0.024068>
and start the following in the host when the 'dd' command completes
in the guest:
$ strace -T -e fsync /usr/bin/sync virtiofs/foo
fsync(3) = 0 <10.371640>
There are no good reasons not to honor the expected behavior of sync()
actually: it gives an unrealistic impression that virtiofs is super fast
and that data has safely landed on HW, which isn't the case obviously.
Implement a ->sync_fs() superblock operation that sends a new FUSE_SYNCFS
request type for this purpose. Provision a 64-bit placeholder for possible
future extensions. Since the file server cannot handle the wait == 0 case,
we skip it to avoid a gratuitous roundtrip. Note that this is
per-superblock: a FUSE_SYNCFS is send for the root mount and for each
submount.
Like with FUSE_FSYNC and FUSE_FSYNCDIR, lack of support for FUSE_SYNCFS in
the file server is treated as permanent success. This ensures
compatibility with older file servers: the client will get the current
behavior of sync() not being propagated to the file server.
Note that such an operation allows the file server to DoS sync(). Since a
typical FUSE file server is an untrusted piece of software running in
userspace, this is disabled by default. Only enable it with virtiofs for
now since virtiofsd is supposedly trusted by the guest kernel.

We already have FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV flag that says that file server will
remove suid/sgid/caps on truncate/chown/write. But that's little different
from what Linux VFS implements.
To be consistent with Linux VFS behavior what we want is.
- caps are always cleared on chown/write/truncate
- suid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID.
- sgid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID as well as file has group execute
permission.
As previous flag did not provide above semantics. Implement a V2 of the
protocol with above said constraints.
Server does not know if caller has CAP_FSETID or not. So for the case
of write()/truncate(), client will send information in special flag to
indicate whether to kill priviliges or not. These changes are in subsequent
patches.
FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 relies on WRITE being sent to server to clear
suid/sgid/security.capability. But with ->writeback_cache, WRITES are
cached in guest. So it is not recommended to use FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2
and writeback_cache together. Though it probably might be good enough
for lot of use cases.

SETUPMAPPING is a command for use with 'virtiofsd', a fuse-over-virtio
implementation; it may find use in other fuse impelementations as well in
which the kernel does not have access to the address space of the daemon
directly.
A SETUPMAPPING operation causes a section of a file to be mapped into a
memory window visible to the kernel. The offsets in the file and the
window are defined by the kernel performing the operation.
The daemon may reject the request, for reasons including permissions and
limited resources.
When a request perfectly overlaps a previous mapping, the previous mapping
is replaced. When a mapping partially overlaps a previous mapping, the
previous mapping is split into one or two smaller mappings.
REMOVEMAPPING is the complement to SETUPMAPPING; it unmaps a range of
mapped files from the window visible to the kernel.
The map_alignment field communicates the alignment constraint for
FUSE_SETUPMAPPING/FUSE_REMOVEMAPPING and allows the daemon to constrain the
addresses and file offsets chosen by the kernel.

Currently, a CUSE server running on a 64-bit kernel can tell when an ioctl
request comes from a process running a 32-bit ABI, but cannot tell whether
the requesting process is using legacy IA32 emulation or x32 ABI. In
particular, the server does not know the size of the client process's
`time_t` type.
For 64-bit kernels, the `FUSE_IOCTL_COMPAT` and `FUSE_IOCTL_32BIT` flags
are currently set in the ioctl input request (`struct fuse_ioctl_in` member
`flags`) for a 32-bit requesting process. This patch defines a new flag
`FUSE_IOCTL_COMPAT_X32` and sets it if the 32-bit requesting process is
using the x32 ABI. This allows the server process to distinguish between
requests coming from client processes using IA32 emulation or the x32 ABI
and so infer the size of the client process's `time_t` type and any other
IA32/x32 differences.

Starting from commit 9c225f2655 ("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 10dce8af34 ("fs: stream_open - opener for
stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without
deadlock") for details and e.g. commit 581d21a2d0 ("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+%3Dhttps://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346https://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.

On networked filesystems file data can be changed externally. FUSE
provides notification messages for filesystem to inform kernel that
metadata or data region of a file needs to be invalidated in local page
cache. That provides the basis for filesystem implementations to invalidate
kernel cache explicitly based on observed filesystem-specific events.
FUSE has also "automatic" invalidation mode(*) when the kernel
automatically invalidates data cache of a file if it sees mtime change. It
also automatically invalidates whole data cache of a file if it sees file
size being changed.
The automatic mode has corresponding capability - FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA.
However, due to probably historical reason, that capability controls only
whether mtime change should be resulting in automatic invalidation or
not. A change in file size always results in invalidating whole data cache
of a file irregardless of whether FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA was negotiated(+).
The filesystem I write[1] represents data arrays stored in networked
database as local files suitable for mmap. It is read-only filesystem -
changes to data are committed externally via database interfaces and the
filesystem only glues data into contiguous file streams suitable for mmap
and traditional array processing. The files are big - starting from
hundreds gigabytes and more. The files change regularly, and frequently by
data being appended to their end. The size of files thus changes
frequently.
If a file was accessed locally and some part of its data got into page
cache, we want that data to stay cached unless there is memory pressure, or
unless corresponding part of the file was actually changed. However current
FUSE behaviour - when it sees file size change - is to invalidate the whole
file. The data cache of the file is thus completely lost even on small size
change, and despite that the filesystem server is careful to accurately
translate database changes into FUSE invalidation messages to kernel.
Let's fix it: if a filesystem, through new FUSE_EXPLICIT_INVAL_DATA
capability, indicates to kernel that it is fully responsible for data cache
invalidation, then the kernel won't invalidate files data cache on size
change and only truncate that cache to new size in case the size decreased.
(*) see 72d0d248ca "fuse: add FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA init flag",
eed2179efe "fuse: invalidate inode mapping if mtime changes"
(+) in writeback mode the kernel does not invalidate data cache on file
size change, but neither it allows the filesystem to set the size due to
external event (see 8373200b12 "fuse: Trust kernel i_size only")

Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with
userspace. When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be
enabled. ACL support also implies "default_permissions".
When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility
for enforcing ACLs. ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is
responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode
in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are
created.

Allow an open fuse device to be "cloned". Userspace can create a clone by:
newfd = open("/dev/fuse", O_RDWR)
ioctl(newfd, FUSE_DEV_IOC_CLONE, &oldfd);
At this point newfd will refer to the same fuse connection as oldfd.

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:
7678ac5061 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.

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.

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.

Commit 7e98d53086 (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.

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.

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.
