* Released 2.9.2
2012-10-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix deadlock in libfuse. Running "svn update" on a fuse
filesystem could deadlock because of a bug in the way the paths
are locked. Reported by Kazuaki Anami
2012-08-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix missing config.h in buffer.c. Reported by Matthew Gabeler-Lee
2012-08-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Not unhashing the name in forget (commit on 2011-12-09) broke
the forget logic in a subtle way, resulting in "fuse internal
error: node NNN not found" and causing the filesystem daemon to
abort. Fix by incrementing the node refcount if nlookup goes from
zero to one. Reported by Kyle Lippincott
2012-08-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

later. Patch by Anatol Pomozov
2012-05-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Linking to a library that uses threads requires the application
to be linked with -pthreads otherwise some pthread functions will
be linked to stubs in glibc. So move -pthread from Libs.private
to Libs in fuse.pc. Reported by Werner Fink
* Fix the compile command in the examples. Reported by Luciano
Dalle Ore

* Check protocol version before sending notifications and return
-ENOSYS if a particular notification is not supported.
* Add 'flag_utime_omit_ok' flag to fuse_operations. If the
filesystem sets this flag then ->utimens() will receive UTIME_OMIT
and UTIME_NOW values as specified in utimensat(2).
2012-01-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Interpret octal escape codes in options. Requested by Jan
Engelhardt

FORGET request for the parent directory.
* Free request in fuse_reply_data().
2011-12-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix build if FUSE_NODE_SLAB is not defined. Patch by Emmanuel
Dreyfus
* Check for availability of utimensat() function. Patch by
Emmanuel Dreyfus
2011-12-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

Musumeci
2011-10-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Reply to request with ENOMEM in case of failure to allocate

just freeze up until the filesystem daemon is killed. Reported by
Stephan Kulow
2011-09-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Replace daemon() function with fork(). Patch by Anatol Pomozov
2011-08-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* If configured with --disable-mtab then don't call mount(8) from
libfuse to update the mtab. Reported by: James Sierp
2011-08-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Use LRU list for cleaning up the cache if the "remember=T"
option was given. Patch by therealneworld@gmail.com
2011-07-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add ->flock() operation to low and high level interfaces. This
fixes problems with emulating flock() with POSIX locking.
Reported by Sebastian Pipping. As with lock/setlk/getlk most
filesystems don't need to implement this, as the kernel takes care
of file locking. The only reason to implement locking operations
is for network filesystems which want file locking to work between
clients.
2011-07-02 Sebastian Pipping <sebastian@pipping.org>
* Make xmp_utimens of examples "fusexmp" and "fusexmp_fh"
not follow symlinks as other layers do that already.
2011-06-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add "remember" option. This works similar to "noforget" except
that eventually the node will be allowed to expire from the cache.
Patch by therealneworld@gmail.com
2011-05-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Check if splice/vmsplice are supported
2011-05-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Remove -lrt -ldl from fuse.pc for dynamic linking since
libfuse.so is already linked with these libraries. Reported by:
Nikolaus Rath
2011-05-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Cleaner build output. Patch by Reuben Hawkins
2011-05-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Disable splice by default, add "splice_read", "splice_write" and
"splice_move" options. Keep the "no_splice_*" variants, which can
disable splice even if the filesystem explicitly enables it.
2011-04-15 Max Krasnyansky <maxk@kernel.org>
* Added support for "auto_unmount" option which unmounts the
filesystem automatically on process exit (or crash).
2011-03-30 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Patches by Laszlo Papp fixing various issues found by the
Coverity checker
2011-03-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* In case of failure to add to /etc/mtab don't umount. Reported
by Marc Deslauriers
2011-02-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* libfuse: In fuse_session_loop_mt() don't pause when exiting the
worker threads. The pause() was added in 2.2.1 to prevent
segfault on pthread_cancel() on an exited, detached thread. Now
worker threads are not detached and pthread_cancel() should work
fine even after the thread exited. Reported by Boris Protopopov
2011-01-31 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* fusermount: chdir to / before performing mount/umount
* fusermount: only allow mount and umount if util-linux supports
--no-canonicalize
2010-12-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Highlevel lib: allow hash tables to shrink
* Highlevel lib: add slab allocation for node cache. This will
allow the memory used by the filesystem to grow and shrink
depending on how many inodes are currently cached.
2010-12-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Highlevel lib: use dynamically resized hash table for looking up
by name and node ID.
2010-12-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Allow batching of forget requests. This allows forget requests
to be processed faster and doesn't require a modification to fuse
filesystems. Reported by Terje Malmedal
* Add ->forget_multi() operation to the lowlevel API. The
filesystem may implement this to process multiple forget requests
in one call
* Fix the ambiguity of ioctl ABI on the kernel/userspace boundary
for 32bit vs. 64bit userspace
2010-11-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add new write_buf() method to the highlevel API. Similarly to
the lowlevel write_buf() method, this allows implementing zero
copy writes.
* Add a new read_buf() method to the highlevel API. This allows
returning a generic buffer from the read method, which in turn
allows zero copy reads.
* In fusexmp_fh implement the ->read_buf() and ->write_buf()
methods. Leave the ->read() and ->write() implementations for
reference, even though they are not necessary.
2010-11-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix check for read-only fs in mtab update
* Open /dev/null for write instead of read for redirecting stdout
and stderr
* If umount(8) supports --fake and --no-canonicalize (util-linux-ng
version 2.18 or later), and umount(2) supports the
UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW flag (linux kernel version 2.6.35 or later) then,
"fusermount -u" will call the umount(2) system call and use
"umount --fake ..." to update /etc/mtab
* Added --disable-legacy-umount option to configure. This
disables the runtime checking of umount(8) version. When built
with this option then "fusermount -u" will fail if umount(8)
doesn't support the --fake and --no-canonicalize options.
* Fix fuse_buf_copy() if already at the end of the buffers
* Add new ->write_buf() method to low level interface. This
allows passig a generic buffer, either containing a memory buffer
or a file descriptor. This allows implementing zero copy writes.
* Add fuse_session_receive_buf() and fuse_session_process_buf()
which may be used in event loop implementations to replace
fuse_chan_recv() and fuse_session_process() respectively.
* Remove unnecessary restoring of current working directory in
"fusermount -u"
* Add ctx->pid to debug output
* Fix st_nlink value in high level lib if file is unlinked but
still open
* libfuse: add store request. Request data to be stored in the
kernel buffers for a given inode.
* libfuse: add retrieve request. Retrieve data stored in the
kernel buffers for a given inode.
2010-10-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Use LTLIBICONV when linking libfuse. This fixes building against
uclibc + libiconv. Patch by Natanael Copa
2010-10-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add missing argument check in ulockmgr.c to prevent calling
ulockmgr_server with illegal arguments. This would cause an ever
growing list of ulockmgr_server processes with an endless list of
open files which finally exceeds the open file handle limit.
Patch by Markus Ammer
2010-09-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix ambiguous symbol version for fuse_chan_new.
fuse_versionscript included fuse_chan_new in both FUSE_2.4 and
FUSE_2.6. Remove the FUSE_2.4, which is invalid.
2010-09-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix option escaping for fusermount. If the "fsname=" option
contained a comma then the option parser in fusermount was
confused (Novell bugzilla #641480). Fix by escaping commas when
passing them over to fusermount. Reported by Jan Engelhardt
2010-08-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add NetBSD support. Patch from Emmanuel Dreyfus
2010-07-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* libfuse: add buffer interface. Add a generic buffer interface
for use with I/O. Buffer vectors are supplied and each buffer in
the vector may be a memory pointer or a file descriptor.
* The fuse_reply_fd() interface is converted to using buffers.
2010-06-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Make the number of max background requests and congestion
threshold tunable. New options are "max_background" and
"congestion_threshold". Only effective on linux kernel versions
2.6.32 or greater. Patch by Csaba Henk
2010-06-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Add fuse_reply_fd() reply function to the low level interface.
On linux version 2.6.35 or greater this will use splice() to move
data directly from a file descriptor to the fuse device without
needing to go though a userspace buffer. With the
FUSE_REPLY_FD_MOVE flag the kernel will attempt to move the data
directly into the filesystem's cache. On earlier kernels it will
fall back to an intermediate buffer. The options
"no_splice_write" and "no_splice_move" can be used to disable
splicing and moving respectively.
2010-06-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Fix out-of-source build. Patch by Jörg Faschingbauer
* Add a "nopath" option and flag, indicating that path argument
need not be calculated for the following operations: read, write,
flush, release, fsync, readdir, releasedir, fsyncdir, ftruncate,
fgetattr, lock, ioctl and poll.
2010-05-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
* Remove "chmod root" from install of fusermount. Reported by
Lucas C. Villa Real

This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
pancake.
With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem in a
userspace program. Features include:
* Simple library API
* Simple installation (no need to patch or recompile the kernel)
* Secure implementation
* Userspace - kernel interface is very efficient
* Usable by non privileged users
* Runs on Linux kernels 2.4.X and 2.6.X
* Has proven very stable over time
This package is enabled only for linux and FreeBSD, NetBSD uses
its own compatible library.
