-2015-08-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix warning mount.c:receive_fd(). Reported by Albert
- Berger
-
- * libfuse: added fuse_pkgversion() function to retrieve the full
- version string, per autoconf. Patch by Christopher Harrison
-
-2015-06-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix possible memory leak. Reported by Jose R. Guzman
-
-2015-05-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Use system directory for system-wide udev rules by default. This
- ensures that fuse functions correctly on stateless operating
- systems without requiring use of the site configuration directory
- (/etc/). Patch by Ikey Doherty
-
-2015-05-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: refcount fuse_chan objects. New functions:
- fuse_chan_get(), fuse_chan_put(). Removed function:
- fuse_chan_destroy().
-
- * libfuse: add "clone_fd" option. This creates a separate device
- file descriptor for each processing thread, which might improve
- performance.
-
-2015-05-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix exec environment for mount and umount. Found by
- Tavis Ormandy (CVE-2015-3202).
-
-2015-04-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: add FUSE_CAP_NO_OPEN_SUPPORT flag to ->init()
-
-2015-02-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix fuse_remove_signal_handlers() to properly restore
- the default signal handler. Reported by: Chris Johnson
-
- * libfuse: fix handling of '.' and '..' in highlevel readdirplus
-
-2014-07-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: highlevel API: fix directory file handle passed to
- ioctl() method. Reported by Eric Biggers
-
-2014-07-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: document deadlock avoidance for
- fuse_notify_inval_entry() and fuse_notify_delete()
-
- * fusermount, libfuse: send value as unsigned in "user_id=" and
- "group_id=" options. Uids/gids larger than 2147483647 would
- result in EINVAL when mounting the filesystem. This also needs a
- fix in the kernel.
-
- * libfuse: add "time_gran" option. This allows the filesystem to
- specify the time granularity it supports when the kernel is
- responsible for updating times ("writeback_cache" option).
-
- * libfuse: allow setting ctime in ->setattr()
-
- * libfuse: add flags to ->rename(). See renameat2() system call
- in linux-3.15 and later kernels.
-
-2014-03-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Initialize stat buffer passed to ->getattr() and ->fgetattr() to
- zero in all cases. Reported by Daniel Iwan
-
-2014-03-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: implement readdirplus for high-level API. Reuse the
- old "readdir" callback, but add a flags argument, that has
- FUSE_READDIR_PLUS in case this is a "plus" version. Filesystems
- can safely ignore this flag, but if they want they can add
- optimizations based on it: i.e. only retrieve the full attributes
- in PLUS mode. The filler function is also given a flags argument
- and the filesystem can set FUSE_FILL_DIR_PLUS if all the
- attributes in "stat" are valid. Original patch by Eric Wong
-
-2014-02-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: added fuse_lo-plus.c to the examples
-
-2014-02-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: Don't use constructor functions for loading modules.
- Original patch by Fabrice Bauzac
-
-2014-01-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: Add "async_dio" and "writeback_cache" options.
- Asynchronous direct I/O is supported by linux kernels 3.13 and
- later, writeback caching is supported by 3.14 and later.
-
-2013-08-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: Add missing includes. This allows compiling fuse with
- musl. Patch by Daniel Thau
-
-2013-07-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Print help on stdout instead of stderr
-
-2013-07-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fuse -> fuse3. Allow 2.X and 3.X to coexist. Includes
- are now stored under /usr/include/fuse3 and library is named
- libfuse3.*. Invoke pkg-config with "fuse3" as the first argument
- to build with version 3 of the library.
-
- * ulockmgr: strip ulockmgr support from this source package and
- distribute it separately. It is not needed for the building of
- libfuse, only fusexmp_fh. Check ulockmgr library in ./configure
- and if not disable remote-lock suport in fusexmp_fh.
-
-2013-07-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: remove "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" from fuse.pc, add
- AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to your configure.ac instead.
-
-2013-06-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: set FD_CLOEXEC also when receiving device fd from
- fusermount
-
-2013-06-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix multiple close of device fd. Reported by Dan
- Greenfield
-
-2013-03-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix thread cancel race. Exiting a worker my race with
- cancelling that same worker. This caused a segmenation
- fault. Reported and tested by Anatol Pomozov

- * libfuse: use O_CLOEXEC flag when opening /dev/fuse device.
- Patch by Richard W.M. Jones
-
- * libfuse: don't force -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 in pkgconfig file.
- Patch by Richard W.M. Jones
-
-2013-02-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fuse_daemonize(): chdir to "/" even if not running in the
- background for consistency. Reported by Vladimir Rutsky
-
-2013-02-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fuse_opt_parse(): when storing a newly allocated string for
- format "%s", free the previous value stored at that location.
- Reported by Marco Schuster
-
-2013-02-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-2013-02-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix crash in unlock_path(). Patch by Ratna Manoj
-
- * libfuse: fix the 'remember' option. The lru list was not
- initialized for the "/" path. This resulted in remove_node_lru()
- crashing on LOOKUP-DOTDOT. Patch by Madan Valluri
-
- * libfuse: configure: detect new util-linux
-
- * libfuse: Use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS instead of AM_CONFIG_HEADER.
- Patch by Anatol Pomozov

-
- * 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>
-
- * Fix linking against GNU libiconv. Patch by Natanael Copa
-
-2012-07-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- well as the source level.
-
-2012-07-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.9.1

- 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
-
-2012-04-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-
- * 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

-2011-12-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix hang in wait_on_path(). Reported by Ville Silventoinen
-
- * Don't unhash name in FORGET. This resulted in ENOENT being
- returned for unlinked but still open files if the kernel sent a
- 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

-
- * Check for availability of utimensat() function. Patch by
- Emmanuel Dreyfus
-
-2011-12-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add fuse_lowlevel_notify_delete() which tells the kernel that a
- file or directory is deleted. Patch by John Muir
-
-2011-12-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Update retrieve_reply() method
-
-2011-12-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Low level API: lock argument of fuse_reply_lock should have a
- 'const' qualifier. Reported by Shachar Sharon
-
- * Add support for ioctl on directories. Reported by Antonio SJ
- Musumeci
-
-2011-10-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Reply to request with ENOMEM in case of failure to allocate
- request structure. Otherwise the task issuing the request will
- 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
-
-2010-04-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.8.4
-
-2010-04-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix checking for symlinks in umount from /tmp. Reported by Al
- Viro
-
- * Fix umounting if /tmp is a symlink. Reported by Franco Broi
-
-2010-02-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix definition of FUSE_OPT_END for C++. Reported by Tim
- Bruylants
-
-2010-02-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix stack alignment for clone()
-
-2010-02-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.8.3
-
-2010-02-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Using "--no-canonicalize" with umount(8) conflicts with the race
- fix, sinceit assumes the supplied path is absolute, while the race
- fix relies on the path being relative to the current directory.
- Reported by Tom Rindborg
-
-2010-01-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.8.2
-
-2010-01-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix race if two "fusermount -u" instances are run in parallel.
- Reported by Dan Rosenberg
-
- * Make sure that the path to be unmounted doesn't refer to a
- symlink
-
-2010-01-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix compile error on FreeBSD. Patch by Jay Sullivan
-
-2009-12-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Use '--no-canonicalize' option of mount(8) (available in
- util-linux-ng version 2.17 or greater) to avoid calling
- readling(2) on the newly mounted filesystem before the mount
- procedure is finished. This has caused a deadlock if "audit" was
- enabled in the kernel. Also use '--no-canonicalize' for umount to
- avoid touching the mounted filesystem.
-
-2009-09-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.8.1
-
-2009-08-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-
-2009-07-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Clarify how the protocol version should be negotiated between
- kernel and userspace. Notably libfuse didn't correctly handle the
- case when the supported major versions didn't match
-
- * Add missing pthread link for libulockmgr. Patch by Petr Salinger
-
-2009-07-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * The context is extended with a 'umask' field. The umask is sent
- for mknod, mkdir and create requests by linux kernel version
- 2.6.31 or later, otherwise the umask is set to zero. Also
- introduce a new feature flag: FUSE_CAP_DONT_MASK. If the kernel
- supports this feature, then this flag will be set in conn->capable
- in the ->init() method. If the filesystem sets this flag in in
- conn->want, then the create modes will not be masked.
-
- * Add low level interfaces for lookup cache and attribute
- invalidation. This feature is available in linux kernels 2.6.31
- or later. Patch by John Muir
-
- * Kernel interface version is now 7.12
-
- * fusermount: Do not silently ignore command line arguments.
- Patch by Sebastian Harl
-
-2009-06-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.8.0-pre3
-
-2009-06-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add fuse_getgroups (high level lib) and fuse_req_getgroups (low
- level lib) functions to query the supplementary group IDs for the
- current request. Currently this is implemented on Linux by
- reading from the /proc filesystem.
-
-2009-06-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add "noforget" option to high level lib to prevent ESTALE errors
- on NFS exported filesystems. This result in paths being cached
- forever, resulting in ever growing memory usage. Use with care.
-
- * Add "no_remote_lock" option to disable remote file locking even
- if the filesystem implements it. With this option locking
- primitives (flock, lockf, fcntl(F_SETLK)) will still work, but
- will ignore remotely locked files.
-
- * CUSE patches from Tejun Heo:
-
- * Unrestricted ioctl support left some debris. Clean them up:
- o No reason to pass around pointer to flags. Pass flags directly.
- o Clean up comment and prototype parameter names.
- o fuse_lib_ioctl() didn't reply when get_path() failed. Fix it.
- o Remove unused variables {in|out}_iov from fuse_lib_ioctl().
-
- * Add fuse_reply_ioctl_iov()
-
- * Move fuse_session, fuse_req and fuse_ll definitions to fuse_i.h
- and make send_reply_iov() and fuse_setup_common() global (also in
- fuse_i.h). These will be used by CUSE support.
-
- * Restructure fuse_ll_process()
-
- * Implement libfuse side of CUSE support. CUSE uses subset of FUSE
- operations as dir operations don't make sense for CUSE where one
- instance implements single character device.
-
- CUSE support comes with its own cuse_lowevel_ops and related
- initialization and helper functions. Except for initialization, it
- usage is basically identical to FUSE.
-
- This patch also adds example/cusexmp.c which can create a character
- device with name and device number specified on command line. The
- created device itself is pretty boring. It's a bit bucket supporting
- read, write and access via ioctl.
-

-
- * Implement ioctl support. On high level interface only
- "restricted" ioctls are supported (which are defined with the
- _IO(), _IOR(), _IOW() or _IOWR() macros). Unrestricted ioctls
- will only be allwed to CUSE (Character Device in Userspace)
- servers. Patch by Tejun Heo
-
-2008-11-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-2008-05-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Don't allow bigger than 4kB writes by default on 2.6.26 and
- later kernels, so that filesystems not expecting this are not
- broken on a kernel upgrade. Provide a 'big_writes' mount option
- to enable this feature. In future API revisions this may become

- the path from changing during operations. Original patch by
- Rodrigo Castro
-
-2008-02-03 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * lib/mount_bsd.c:
- - string formatting fixes
- - exit if mounting has failed
- (in FreeBSD a mount failure is not critical per se, as the daemon
- still could be mounted externally, but waiting for such an event
- is more confusing than fruitful)
- - ditch the kvm(8) stuff and simply use forced unmount which just
- won't block
- - prettify option specifications
- - add "-onosync_unmount" kernel option

- since some filesystems may update st_ctime. Reported by Szabolcs
- Szakacsits
-
- * Fix NFS exporting to handle 64bit node IDs
-
- * Disable old symbol versions if __UCLIBC__ is defined. If a
- symbol in a library has multiple versions, the runtime linker in

- * Fix recursive locking in fuse_create(). Thanks to Takuya
- Ishibashi for the bug report
-
-2006-10-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix automake problem. Patch from Nix
-
-2006-10-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix mount.fuse to use /bin/sh instead of /bin/bash, which is not
- always available on embedded systems. Patch from Paul Smith
-
- * Fix util/Makefile.am, so that failure to run update-rc.d or
- device creation doesn't cause make to fail. Reported by Paul
- Smith
-
-2006-10-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0
-
-2006-10-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: don't try to create a lock file if /etc/mtab is a
- symlink. Report and patch from Alexei Sheplyakov (debian bug
- #393693)
-
-2006-10-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Minor changes, sync with mainline tree
-
-2006-10-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-rc3
-
-2006-10-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: cleanups
-
-2006-10-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: Fix compilation on patched 2.6.18 (fc6) and 2.6.19.
- Report from David Shaw
-
- * lib: Fix lost error on renaming a file. Report from David Shaw
-
- * lib: Fix lost error on hiding open files (renaming to
- .fuse_hiddenXXXX)
-
- * kernel: Fix a rare hang on SMP/32bit on heavy filesystem
- activity. The cause of the bug was that some calls to
- i_size_write() were not protected by a lock, and hence
- i_size_seqcount could become corrupted. This caused subsequent
- calls to i_size_read() to spin forever. This is a long standing
- bug was probably introduced in version 2.2, and thought to be
- related to NFS exporting (it's not). It was reported by various
- people, but Dana Henriksen has finally helped me to track it down,
- so big thanks to him
-
- * kernel: Protect against truncation of a swapfile
-
-2006-10-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: Check for signature of super_operations->umount_begin().
- Ubuntu kernel 2.6.17 seems to use the new signature found in
- 2.6.18. Thanks to Florent Mertens for the report
-
-2006-10-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Make sure inode numers wrap around at 2^32. This is needed on
- dual 64bit/32bit architectures, because 32bit applications using
- the non-largefile interface would otherwise break (EOVERFLOW error
- would be returned by the stat() system call family)
-
- * ulockmgr: handle the case, when a locking operation fails
- because no more file desctriptors are available in
- ulockmgr_server. Also work around a Linux kernel bug (known to
- exist for all Linux kernel versions <= 2.6.18) which may cause
- sent file descriptors to be lost in the above case
-
- * ulockmgr: optimize file descriptor use
-
- * restore needed cpp flags to util/Makefile.am
-
- * Install udev rules as 99-fuse.rules instead of 60-fuse.rules
-
- * Minor clean up of udev rules
-
- * Add a synchronous DESTROY message to kernel interface. This is
- invoked from umount, when the final instance of the filesystem is
- released. It is only sent for filesystems mounted with the
- 'blkdev' option for security reasons.
-
- * If the DESTROY message is received, call the filesystem's
- ->destroy() method. In this case it's not called from session
- destruction as it would be otherwise.
-
-2006-10-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-rc2
-
-2006-10-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add support for FLUSH+RELEASE operation for FreeBSD. Original
- patch by Csaba Henk
-
- * Add init script to insert fuse module and mount the control
- filesystem. The script is installed as /etc/init.d/fuse and on
- debian based systems (where update-rc.d is available) symlinks
- from /etc/rc*.d/ are also installed.
-
- * Include '#define FUSE_USE_VERSION=XX' into examples so they
- become more self contained.
-
-2006-09-30 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * API changes:
-
- * Move lock_owner from a separate argument into fuse_file_info
-
- * Add a flag to fuse_file_info indicating (1) a highlevel lock
- operation (unlock all) was initiated by a flush, (2) a lowlevel
- release operation should perform a flush as well.
-
- * fusermount: revert modprobe change (2006-08-18) since it
- doesn't work reliably with udev
-
- * Add support for block device backed filesystems. This mode is
- selected with the 'blkdev' option, which is privileged.
-
- * Add support for the bmap (FIBMAP ioctl) operation on block
- device backed filesystems. This allows swapon and lilo to work on
- such filesystems.
-
- * kernel changes:
-
- * Drop support for kernels earlier than 2.6.9. Kernel module from
- previous (2.5.x) release can be used with library from this
- release
-
- * In fuse_dentry_revalidate() use dget_parent() instead of
- dereferencing d_parent, since there's no protection against parent
- changing and going away
-
- * Protect nlookup from concurrent updates
-
- * In lookup if a directory alias exists but is unused,
- then get rid of it, otherwise return -EBUSY.
-
- * In mkdir if a directory alias exists, return success, but leave
- dentry negative. In reality this could happen if a remote rename
- immediately followed the mkdir.
-
- * Don't BUG in fuse_iget() if multiple retries are needed to get a
- good inode. This could happen if several lookups are racing for
- the same inode.
-
-2006-09-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix compilation on 2.6.9. Report from Troy Ayers
-
-2006-09-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix Oops in fuse_readpages(). Reported by David Shaw
-
-2006-09-24 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * Add support for nanosec times on FreeBSD
-
- * Fix FreeBSD compatibility issues
-
-2006-09-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix one more compatibility bug. Thanks to Ricardo Correia
-
- * Fix utimens compilation with uClibc. Patch from Jamie Guinan
-
-2006-09-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fixed several compatibility bugs in low level interface.
- Reported by Ricardo Correia
-
- * Add workaround for ARM caching bug
-
-2006-09-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Rename new utimes() method to more logical utimens()
-
-2006-09-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fuse tried to unlink already unlinked hidden files. Bug
- reported by Milan Svoboda
-
-2006-09-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-rc1
-
-2006-09-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: Fix unlock on close for kernels < 2.6.18
-
- * Add ulockmgr library & server. This can be used for handling
- file locking requests either directly from libfuse or over a
- network, etc. This first version is not optimized and the number
- of file descriptors it uses may get out of hand
-
-2006-09-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: Add interrupt support to high level library, which may be
- enabled with the 'intr' mount option.
-
- * When an operation is interrupted the thread handling that
- operation will receive SIGUSR1 (or other signal specified with the
- 'intr_signal=N' option). The library installs a no-op signal
- handler for this signal, unless there's already a handler
- installed.
-
- * The filesystem may query interrupt status (regardless of 'intr')
- with the fuse_interrupted() function.
-
- * mount.fuse: initialize $HOME if not set. Report from Sven Goldt
-
-2006-09-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: Multithreaded loop now allows unlimited number of threads.
- This is needed for locking operations which may block
- indefinitely. Also the kernel now doesn't limit the number of
- outstanding requests so the library shouldn't do so either.
-
-2006-09-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix recursive lock bug in interrupt handling
-
- * Add utimes() method to highlevel interface, which supports
- setting times with nanosecond resolution
-
-2006-08-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: fix page leak if fuse_readpages() failed in it's
- initialization. Bug found and original patch from Alexander
- Zarochentsev
-
- * For linux kernels >=2.6.18 (2.6.19 if using the fuse module from
- the kernel tree) the statfs method will receive the path within
- the filesystem on which the stat(v)fs syscall was called
-
- * fusermount: try to modprobe fuse module if invoked by root and
- unable to open device. This is needed with udev, since the device
- node will be created only when the module is inserted, hence
- module autoloading won't work. Reported by Szakacsits Szabolcs
-
-2006-07-30 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: if selinux is active, restore the original file's
- security context in unmount_rename(). Redhat bugzilla id 188561.
- Patch from Yves Perrenoud
-
- * Add POSIX file locking operation to high level library
-
- * Initialize context for unlink of hidden files on umount. Bug
- reported by Tim Stoakes
-
-2006-07-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Multiple release() calls can race with each other, resulting in
- the hidden file being deleted before the last release finishes.
- Bug found and patch tested by Mark Huijgen
-
-2006-07-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: if /dev/fuse doesn't exist, suggest modprobing fuse;
- this makes sense on systems using udev. Reported by Szakacsits
- Szabolcs
-
-2006-06-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-pre3
-
-2006-06-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Support in kernel module for file locking and interruption. The
- same functionality is available in official kernels >= 2.6.18
-
-2006-06-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add POSIX file locking support
-
- * Add request interruption
-
-2006-06-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add missing pthread_rwlock_destroy(). Patch from Remy Blank
-
-2006-06-05 Remy Blank <remy.blank@pobox.com>
-
- * lib: canonicalize mount point in fuse_helper_opt_proc() so that
- unmounting succeeds even if mount point was relative.
-
-2006-06-04 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * lib: fix emergency umount in helper.c when malloc fails.
- (The way it was done would end up in a segfault.)
-
-2006-06-01 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * lib: adjust threading related compiler flags.
- Switch to "-pthread" from "-lpthread" as that's the preferred
- one on several platforms. Consulted with Terrence Cole and
- Miklos Szeredi
-
-2006-05-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: search fusermount in installation directory (bindir) as
- well as in PATH.
-
-2006-05-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: fix compilation if CLOCK_MONOTONIC is not defined.
- Reported by Christian Magnusson
-
-2006-04-23 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * lib: make FreeBSD mount routine recognize if kernel features
- backgrounded init and if it does, run the mount util in foreground
- (similarly to Linux)
-
-2006-04-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: fix fput deadlock fix, the lockless solution could lead
- to "VFS: busy inodes after umount..."
-
- * kernel: fix race between checking and setting file->private_data
- for the device. Found by Al Viro
-
-2006-04-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: remove request pool, instead allocate requests on
- demand. Account the number of background requests, and if they go
- over a limit, block the allocation of new requests.
-
- * kernel: fix deadlock if backgrounded request holds the last
- reference to the super block
-
- * kernel: don't use fuse_reset_request() during direct I/O
-
-2006-04-06 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * lib: Let FreeBSD mount option parsing routine recognize "no"
- prefixes for FUSE specific options as well
-
-2006-04-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: Add missing rwlock initialization. Patch by Ryan Bradetich
-
-2006-03-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * API changes:
-
- * fuse_main(), fuse_setup() and fuse_new() have an additionl
- user_data parameter
-
- * fuse_mount() returns a 'struct fuse_chan' pointer instead of a
- file descriptor
-
- * fuse_unmount() receives a 'struct fuse_chan' pointer. It
- destroys the given channel
-
- * fuse_teardown() no longer has a file descriptor parameter
-
- * new exported functions: fuse_session_remove_chan(),
- fuse_get_session(), fuse_daemonize()
-
- * fuse_chan_recv() may now return a new channel which will be used
- to send the reply
-
-2006-03-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-pre2
-
-2006-03-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Don't unmount if already unmounted. This fixes a problem seen
- in the following situation: Lazy unmount a busy filesystem; Mount
- a new one in top; When the first finally unmounts, the second also
- unmounts. Reported by Franco Broi
-
-2006-03-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lowlevel lib: use indirect function calls instead of a
- switch/case construct. Besides increased efficiency it helps
- maintainability & readability too. Patch from Florin Malita
-
-2006-03-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: replace global spinlock with a per-connection spinlock
-
-2006-03-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix source compatibility breakage for fuse_unmount(). Report
- from Yura Pakhuchiy
-
-2006-03-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix O_ASYNC handling in fuse_dev_release(). From Jeff Dike
-
-2006-03-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add O_ASYNC and O_NONBLOCK support to FUSE device. Patch by
- Jeff Dike
-
- * Renamed fuse_chan_receive() to fuse_chan_recv() and changed
- interface to return -errno in case of error.
-
-2006-03-01 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * libfuse: pass device file descriptor to fuse_unmount(), rewrite
- FreeBSD implementation so that it uses libc (sysctl backed) instead
- of an embdedded script (kmem backed). Adjust the control flow of
- hello_ll so that device doesn't get closed before unmount attempt.
-
-2006-02-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Lowlevel lib: return all-zero statvfs data if filesystem doesn't
- implement method. This is needed on FreeBSD, and nicer on Linux
- too. Highlevel lib already did this. Reported by Csaba Henk
-
- * Fix negative entry handling. There was a bug, that negative
- lookups with timeouts (nodeid == 0) returned -EIO.
-
-2006-02-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix race between RELEASE and UNLINK, which might leave
- .fuse_hidden* files around
-
-2006-02-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusexmp_fh: implement flush() method and call close() on the
- open file descriptor. This is needed if used on an NFS
- filesystem, which buffers data until file is closed. Franco Broi
- spotted the situation when 'cp -p' failed to set the modification
- time because of this.
-
-2006-02-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.6.0-pre1
-
-2006-02-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: fix use-after-free bug in interruptred reply_entry().
- Patch from John Muir
-
- * libfuse: fix wrong symbol versioning for fuse_mount. Debian bug
- ID: 352631. Found by Stéphane Rosi
-
-2006-02-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Lowlevel lib: Unify fuse_dirent_size() and fuse_add_dirent()
- into a single function fuse_add_direntry(). This cleans up the
- interface and makes it possible to do stacking.
-
-2006-02-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix rare race betweeen abort and release caused by failed iget()
- in fuse_create_open().
-
- * Add 'ac_attr_timeout' option e.g. for filesystems which do their
- own attribute caching.
-
-2006-02-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Work around FreeBSD runtime linker "feature" which binds an old
- version of a symbol to internal references if the symbol has more
- than one version. This resulted in infinite recursion in
- fuse_lowlevel_new_compat25().
-
-2006-02-10 Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>
-
- * Refine clock_gettime() querying so that linker options
- shall be set as it's appropriate for the target platform.
-
-2006-02-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix udev rule syntax. Reported by Nix
-
-2006-02-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * In some cases udev rule seems to be ineffective when installed
- as 40-fuse.rules but work as 60-fuse.rules. Reported by John Hunt
-
-2006-02-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-

- directory. Reported by Frédéric L. W. Meunier
-
-2006-02-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix even bigger bug introduced in fix for request_end() on
- 2006-01-14. Reported by Gal Rosen
-
-2006-01-30 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * highlevel-lib: add 'auto_cache' option. This caches file data
- based on modification time and size
-
-2006-01-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Sanitize storage type and help message in mount_bsd.c. Patch
- from Csaba Henk
-
- * fuse_opt: add new helper constants FUSE_OPT_KEY_KEEP and
- FUSE_OPT_KEY_DISCARD
-
- * Add options 'max_readahead', 'sync_read' and 'async_read'
-
- * Kernel ABI version 7.6:
-
- * Negotiate the 'max_readahead' value and 'async_read' flags with
- userspace in the INIT method
-
- * Add connection info to ->init() methods to both lowlevel and
- highlevel API
-
- * Fall back to synchronous read() behavior if either library or
- userspace filesystem is using the old interface version. This is
- needed so non-updated filesystems won't be confused by the
- different read() behavior
-
-2006-01-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: if "fsname=" option was given, pass it to fusermount
-
- * fuse_opt: add new fuse_opt_insert_arg() function, which is
- needed by filesystems to implement some argument manipulations
- correctly
-
- * fuse_opt: fix memory leak in handling "--" option
-
-2006-01-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: fix detection of case when fuse is not configured into
- the kernel either as module or built-in
-
- * fuse_opt.h: fix incompatibility with C++ compilers by renaming
- 'template' structure member to 'templ'. Reported by Takashi Iwai
-
- * fuse.h: fix compatibility bugs. Patch by Yura Pakhuchiy
-
- * kernel: support version 2.6.16 (i_sem -> i_mutex)
-
-2006-01-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Added (again) asynchronous readpages support
-
- * Each connection now shows up under /sys/fs/fuse/connections
-
- * Connection attributes exported to sysfs: 'waiting' number of
- waiting requests; 'abort' abort the connection
-
- * Connection may be aborted through either the sysfs interface or
- with 'umount -f mountpoint'
-
-2006-01-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.5.0
-
-2006-01-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: fix a couple of bugs
-
- * Order of request_end() and fuse_copy_finish() was wrong.
- Posthumous note: Franco Broi managed to exploit this, though it
- seemed quite impossible
-
- * request_end() used request pointer after decrementing refcount
-
- * Clearing ->connected or ->mounted connection flags could race
- with setting other bitfields not protected with a lock
-
-2006-01-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: add necessary compile flags for 2.4.X/x86_64.
- Report from Sean Ziegeler
-
-2006-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.5.0-pre2
-
-2006-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Applied patch from Csaba Henk, to update mount_bsd to new
- fuse_mount() semantics
-
- * Ignore auto,noauto,... options in mount.fuse. Reported by Frank
- Steiner and Don Taber
-
- * fusermount: add 'dirsync' mount option
-
-2006-01-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Improved help reporting and added version reporting to library
-
-2006-01-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Change working directory to "/" even if running in the
- foreground. Patch from Jonathan Brandmeyer
-
- * Changed lots of functions to use 'struct fuse_args' instead of
- separate argc and argv
-
- * Added fuse_parse_cmdline(), fuse_set_signal_handlers() and
- fuse_remove_signal_handlers() functions, so that it's now pretty
- easy to get all the functionality of fuse_main() with a filesystem
- using the lowlevel API.
-
-2006-01-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * mount.fuse: the 'user' option should be ignored. Report and
- solution from Mattd.
-
- * mount.fuse: export PATH in the right place. Report and patch
- from Hannes Schweizer
-
-2005-12-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Clean up the option parsing interface slightly, by creating an
- "argument list" structure, that contains the argument vector and
- count
-
-2005-12-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: check if /mnt/mtab is a symlink and don't modify it
- in that case
-
- * kernel: simplify request size limiting. INIT only contains
- maximum write size, maximum path component size remains fixed at
- 1024 bytes, and maximum xattr size depends on read buffer.
-
-2005-12-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix readdir() failure on x86_64, of 32bit programs compiled
- without largefile support. Bug report and help from Anthony
- Kolasny
-
- * If lookup returns invalid mode, return -EIO instead of creating
- a regular file
-
- * Add current output argument vector to option processing
- function
-
-2005-12-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-2005-12-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.5.0-pre1
-
-2005-12-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: added option parsing interface, defined in
- <fuse_opt.h>.
-
-2005-12-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Return EIO for file operations (read, write, fsync, flush) on
- open files whose inode has become "bad". Inodes will be marked
- "bad" if their type changes. Bug report by Csaba Henk
-
-2005-12-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-

-2005-11-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Check if '-msoft-float' option is supported by compiler when
- configuring for a 2.4.x kernel. Bug report by Mark Haney
-
- * In multithreaded loop send a TERM signal to the main thread if
- one of the other threads exit. Needed on FreeBSD for a clean exit
- on umount. Should not cause any harm on Linux either
-
-2005-11-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix bug in 32-bit file handle compatibility
-
-2005-11-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Block TERM, INT, HUP and QUIT signals in all but the main
- thread. According to POSIX it's not specified which thread will
- receive these signals.
-
- * Kernel changes:
-
- * Check for directory aliasing on mkdir, not just on lookup
-
- * Check for special node ID values in create+open operation
-
- * Sync with -mm: readv, writev, aio_read and aio_write methods
- added to file operations
-
- * Cleanups: lookup code, page offset calculation
-
- * ABI stepped to 7.4, changes:
-
- * frsize member added to fuse_kstatfs structure
-
- * added support for negative entry caching: on lowlevel API if
- fuse_entry_param::ino is set to zero in reply to a lookup request,
- the kernel will cache the dentry for the specified amount of time.
-
- * libfuse: added 'negative_timeout' option: specifies how much
- negative entries should be cached. Default is zero, to be
- compatible with prior versions
-
-2005-11-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add detection of mainline FUSE code in running kernel
-
-2005-11-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Don't use async cancelation in multithreaded loop. This makes
- it more portable to systems where read() is not async cancel safe.
- Report from Andriy Gapon
-
-2005-11-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Warn if API version 11 compatibility is requested
-
-2005-11-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * More FreeBSD merge
-
- * fusermount: don't allow mountpoints with '\n', '\t', or '\\' in
- them, because it corrupts /etc/mtab. Found by Thomas Biege
- CVE-2005-3531
-
- * libfuse: don't use system() to invoke 'fusermount -u ...'
- because it breaks mountpoints with spaces in them into multiple
- arguments
-
-2005-11-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Merge library part of FreeBSD port. Patch by Csaba Henk

- the kernel interface is available to applications
-
-2005-11-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Moved mountpoint argument checking from fuse_parse_cmdline() to
- fuse_mount() in preparation to FreeBSD merge.
-
-2005-11-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Remove unneeded close() from fuse_teardown(). Spotted by Csaba
- Henk.
-
-2005-11-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Make the statfs change backwards compatible.
-
-2005-11-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Change ->statfs() method to use 'struct statvfs' instead of
- 'struct statfs'. This makes the API more portable since statvfs()
- is defined by POSIX.
-
-2005-10-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add fgetattr() method, which currently will only be called after
- a successful call to a create() method.
-
-2005-10-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Change kernel ABI version to 7.3
-
- * Add ACCESS operation. This is called from the access() system
- call if 'default_permissions' mount option is not given, and is
- not called on kernels 2.4.*
-
- * Add atomic CREATE+OPEN operation. This will only work with
- 2.6.15 (presumably) or later Linux kernels.
-
- * Add ftruncate() method. This will only work with 2.6.15
- (presumably) or later Linux kernels.
-
- * Fix kernel module compile if kernel source and build directories

- auto-loading is now handled by the kernel.
-
-2005-09-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Install UDEV rule file, so /dev/fuse is created with mode 0666.
- Help from Jens M. Noedler.
-
-2005-09-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add memory cleanup on thread exit
-
-2005-09-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-

-
-2005-08-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.4.0-pre1
-
-2005-08-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: cleaned up (or messed up, depending on your POV) the low
- level library API. Hopefully this is close to the final form.
-
-2005-08-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: don't allow empty mountpoint argument, which defeats
- automatic umounting in fuse_main(). Bugreport by Václav Jůza
-
-2005-08-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fix warnings in fuse.h and fuse_lowlevel.h if -Wshadow compiler
- option is used (Paul Alfille).
-
-2005-08-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * highlevel-lib: added mount options "attr_timeout" and
- "entry_timeout". These options control the length of time file
- attributes and entries (names) are cached. Both default to 1.0
- second.
-
- * kernel: correctly handle zero timeout for attributes and entries
-
-2005-08-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Added missing symbols to versionscript (Joshua J. Berry)
-
- * kernel: implement two flags, open can set: 'direct_io' and
- 'keep_cache'. These correspond exactly to mount options
- 'direct_io' and 'kernel_cache', but allow a per-open setting.
-
- * Move 'direct_io' and 'kernel_cache' mount option handling to
- userspace. For both mount options, if the option is given, then
- the respective open flag is set, otherwise the open flag is left
- unmodified (so the filesystem can set it).
-
- * lib (highlevel): make open method optional
-
-2005-07-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: invalidate attributes for read/readdir/readlink
- operations
-
- * kernel: detect newer UML kernels
-
-2005-07-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Make the installation path of fuse.ko and mount.fuse
- configurable through INSTALL_MOD_PATH and MOUNT_FUSE_PATH
- environment variables. Requirement and help from Csaba Henk.
-
-2005-07-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix bug, that causes filesystem requests to hang when unique
- request counter becomes negative. This happens after
- 2,147,483,648 operations, so most people won't care. Thanks to
- Franco Broi for the report and testing.
-
-2005-07-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Don't change mtime/ctime/atime to local time on read/write.
- Bug reported by Ben Grimm
-
- * Install fuse_common.h and fuse_lowlevel.h. Report by Christian
- Magnusson
-
- * fusermount: use getopt_long() for option parsing. It allows the
- use of '--' to stop argument scanning, so fusermount can now
- operate on directories whose names begin with a '-'. Patch by
- Adam Connell
-
-2005-07-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: add '-v', '--version' and '--help' options
-
- * add inode based API
-
-2005-07-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: don't block signals in worker threads. Problem noticed by
- Usarin Heininga
-
-2005-07-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * lib: don't allow both 'allow_other' and 'allow_root' options to
- be given
-
-2005-07-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: check if mountpoint is empty (only '.' and '..' for
- directories, and size = 0 for regular files). If "nonempty"
- option is given, omit this check. This is useful, so users don't
- accidentally hide data (e.g. from backup programs). Thanks to
- Frank van Maarseveen for pointing this out.
-
- * kernel: check if mandatory mount options ('fd', 'rootmode',
- 'user_id', 'group_id') are all given
-
- * lib: simplify 'readdir_ino' handling
-
- * lib: add mount options 'umask=M', 'uid=N', 'gid=N'
-
-2005-07-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel: clean up 'direct_io' code
-
-2005-06-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- * Fix UCLIBC compile error. Patch by Christian Magnusson
-
-2005-06-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Enable the auto-loading of the module via access to the
- corresponding device file. Patch by Takashi Iwai.
-
- * Allow mounting a regular file (over a regular file) for
- unprivleged users.
-
- * Do not create temporary device file. Require "/dev/fuse" to
- exist, and be readable/writable by the mounting user.
-
-2005-06-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3.0
-
-2005-06-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix serious information leak: if the filesystem returns a short
- byte count to a read request, and there are non-zero number of
- pages which are not filled at all, these pages will not be zeroed.
- Hence the user can read out previous memory contents. Found by
- Sven Tantau.
-
-2005-05-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add "readdir_ino" mount option, which tries to fill in the d_ino
- field in struct dirent. This mount option is ignored if "use_ino"
- is used. It helps some programs (e.g. 'pwd' used over NFS from a
- non-Linux OS). Patch by David Shaw.
-
-2005-05-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3-rc1
-
-2005-05-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * File save in krusader and other editors doesn't work with sshfs,
- because open() is interrupted by a periodic signal, and open()
- restarts forever, without any progress. This could just be fixed
- in open(), but the problem is more generic: if signals are
- received more often than the filesystem can get the request to
- userspace, it will never finish. This is probably only a
- theoretical problem, nevertheless I'm removing the possibility to
- interrupt requests with anything other than SIGKILL, even before
- being sent to userspace. Bugreport by Eduard Czimbalmos.
-
-2005-05-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: add "tree_lock" rwlock, that is locked for write in
- rename, unlink and rmdir, and locked for read in all other
- operations. This should fix the rename/release race reported by
- Valient Gough and others. The solution is very coarse, a finer
- grained locking scheme could be implemented, but it would be much
- more complex. Let's see whether this is good enough.
-
-2005-05-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3-pre7
-
-2005-05-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Better fix for out of order FORGET messages. Now the
- LOOKUP/FORGET messages are balanced exactly (one FORGET can
- balance many lookups), so the order no longer matters. This
- changes the kernel ABI slightly, but the library remains backward
- compatible.
-
-2005-05-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix abort for out of order FORGET messages. Again. Spotted by
- Franco Broi again. Sorry :)
-
-2005-04-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3-pre6
-
-2005-04-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Make fusermount work with fuse kernel modules not yet supporting
- the "group_id" option (added for the purpose of stricter
- permission checking).
-
-2005-04-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Check for hard-linked directories in lookup. This could cause
- problems in the VFS, which assumes that such objects never exist.
-
- * Make checking of permission for other users more strict. Now
- the same privilege is required for the mount owner as for ptrace
- on the process performing the filesystem operation.
-
-2005-04-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3-pre5
-
-2005-04-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-

- Reported by David Shaw
-
- * Remove "allow_root" option from kernel module, and implement
- it's functionality in the library

- is given
-
-2005-04-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix Oops in case of nfs export. Spotted by David Shaw
-
- * Fix another Oops in case of write over nfs with direct_io turned
- on. Again spotted by David Shaw

- will be properly fixed in the next release
-
-2005-03-31 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.3-pre1
-
-2005-03-31 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * kernel API: add padding to structures, so 64bit and 32bit
- compiler will return the same size
-
- * kernel API: add offset field to fuse_dirent. This will allow
- more sophisticated readdir interface for userspace
-
- * kernel API: change major number to 6
-
- * kernel: fix warnings on 64bit archs
-
- * kernel: in case of API version mismatch, return ECONNREFUSED
-
-2005-03-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- situations. Found by Magnus Johansson
-
-2005-02-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- * libfuse: added init() and destroy() methods to fuse_operations
-
- * kernel: llseek() method for files and directories made explicit
-
- * kernel: fixed inode leak in NFS export in case of nodeid
- wrapping
-
-2005-02-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse: clean up some unitialized memory found with valgrind
-
- * Add -lpthread to Libs in fuse.pc. Valgrind seems to need an
- explicitly linked libpthread for applications
-
-2005-02-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: set umask, otherwise /etc/mtab will have
- unpredictable permission. Spotted by Jindrich Kolorenc
-
- * fusermount: set owner and group of /etc/mtab to original values
- on unmount

- Patch by Keshava Gowda
-
-2005-01-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL: provide correct llseek semantics for fuse device (fixes

-
-2005-01-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.2-pre5 (matches kernel 2.6.11-rc1-mm2)
-
-2005-01-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL ABI: remove GETDIR operation, and add OPENDIR, READDIR
- and RELEASEDIR. This ends the ugly hack of passing a file
- descriptor to the kernel, and actually makes the code simpler.
-
-2005-01-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.2-pre4
-
-2005-01-17 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: remove capability setting, which was the cause of
- problems for some users. It seems that FS related capabilities

-2005-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.2-pre2
-
-2005-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Change "uid" mount option to "user_id" to avoid confusion with a
- mount option "uid" commonly used by many filesystems
-
-2005-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.2-pre1
-
-2005-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * If FUSE is configured in the kernel, don't build it by default
-
-2005-01-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Compile fix by Christian Magnusson
-
-2005-01-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix compilation for 2.6.{0-5} kernels
-
-2005-01-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL: if request is interrupted, still keep reference to used
- inode(s) and file, so that FORGET and RELEASE are not sent until
- userspace finishes the request.
-
- * remove /{sys,proc}/fs/fuse/version, and instead add an INIT
- request with the same information, which is more flexible,
- simpler, works on embedded systems.
-
-2004-12-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL ABI: update interface to make it independent of type
- sizes. This will help on 64 bit architectures which can run
- legacy 32 bit applications.
-
- * KERNEL ABI: add "len" field to request headers. This will allow
- sending/receiving requests in multiple chunks.
-
- * KERNEL: handle file type change more intelligently
-
- * LIB: "-o debug" option should disable backgrounding (fix by
- Fabien Reygrobellet)
-
-2004-12-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL: invalidate dentry/attributes if interrupted request
- could leave filesystem in an unknown state.
-
-2004-12-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * KERNEL: lots of cleanups related to avoiding possible deadlocks.
- These will cause some regressions, but stability is considered
- more important. If any of these features turns out to be
- important, it can be readded with the deadlock problems addressed.
-
- * Make all requests interruptible (only with SIGKILL currently).
- This can be used to break any deadlock produced by the userspace
- filesystem accessing it's own exported files. The RELEASE request
- is special, because if it's interrupted before sending it to
- userspace it is still sent, but the reply is not awaited.
-
- * If request is interrupted before being sent to userspace, and if
- it hasn't yet got any side effects, it is always restarted,
- regardless of the SA_RESTART flag. This makes these interruptions
- transparent to the process.
-
- * Remove shared-writable mmap support, which was prone to an
- out-of-memory deadlock situation
-
- * Remove INVALIDATE userspace initiated request
-
- * Make readpages() synchronous. Asynchronous requests are
- deadlock prone, since they cannot be interrupted.
-
- * Add readv/writev support to fuse device operations
-
- * Remove some printks, which userspace FS can use for a DoS
- against syslog
-
- * Remove 'large_read' mount option from 2.6 in kernel, check it in
- fusermount instead
-
- * LIB: improve compatibility with a fuse.h header installed in
- ${prefix}/include which in turn includes the real header.
-
- * LIB: improve compatibility by defining fuse_main() (which is now
- not used), so old configure scripts find it.
-
-2004-12-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * When mounting on a subdirectory of / don't duplicate slashes at
- the beggining of path (spotted by David Shaw)
-
-2004-12-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix bug causing garbage in mount options (spotted by David Shaw)
-
-2004-12-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-
- * More comments in fuse.h
-
- * Get rid of double underscores
-
-2004-12-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to cflags provided by pkg-config
-
- * helper.c: add -ho option, which only displays the options not
- the usage header. This can be used by filesystems which have
- their own options.
-
-2004-12-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add source compatibility to 2.1 and 1.1 APIs. To select betwen
- versions simply define FUSE_USE_VERSION to 22, 21 or 11 before
- including the fuse header
-
- * Add binary compatibility to 2.1 version of library with symbol
- versioning
-
-2004-12-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-
- * lib: don't die if version file not found and new style device
- exists
-
- * lib: add '-r' option, which is short for '-o ro'
-
- * fusermount: simplify device opening
-
- * kernel: when direct_io is turend on, copy data directly to
- destination without itermediate buffer. More efficient and safer,
- since no allocation is done.
-
- * fusermount: fix warning if fuse module is not loaded
-
- * kernel: use /dev/fuse on 2.4 too
-
-2004-11-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * libfuse API change: open, read, write, flush, fsync and release
- are passed a 'struct fuse_file_info' pointer containing the open
- flags (open and release), and the file handle. Verion changed to
- 3.0.
-
-2004-11-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * More cleanups in the kernel
-
- * The 10,229 charater device number has been assigned for FUSE
-
- * Version file checking fix (reported by Christian Magnusson)
-
- * fusermount: opening the fuse device now doesn't need /sys.
-
- * Optimize reading by controlling the maximum readahead based on
- the 'max_read' mount option
-
- * fixes for UCLIBC (Christian Magnusson)
-
-2004-11-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Cleaned up kernel in preparation for merge into mainline:
-

-
- * Use real device (/dev/fuse) instead of /proc/fs/fuse/dev
-
- * __user annotations for sparse
-
- * allocate individual pages instead of kmalloc in fuse_readdir,
- fuse_read and fuse_write.
-
- * Fix NFS export in case "use_ino" mount option is given
-
- * Make libfuse and fusermount compatible with future versions
-
- * fusermount: properly add mount options to /etc/mtab
-
-2004-11-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fusermount: do not resolve last component of mountpoint on if it
- is '.' or '..'. This new path resolvation is now done on mount as
- well as unmount. This enables relative paths to work on unmount.
-
- * fusermount: parse common mount options like "ro", "rw", etc...
-
- * Allow module params to be changed through sysfs
-
-2004-11-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 2.1-pre1
-
-2004-11-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

-
- * Extend kernel interface for future use
-
-2004-11-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix 'makeconf.sh' to use autoreconf if available
-
-2004-11-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add ino argument to 'fuse_dirfil_t'. NOTE: This breaks source
- compatibility with earlier versions. To compile earier versions
- just add '-DFUSE_DIRFIL_COMPAT' compile flag or fix the source.
- Do not use the "use_ino" mount flag with filesystems compiled with
- FUSE_DIRFIL_COMPAT.
-
- * Add pkg-config support. To compile a FUSE based filesystem you
- can do "gcc -Wall `pkg-config --cflags --libs fuse` myfs.c -o myfs"
- or similar. Note, that the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
- usually needs to be set to "/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig".
-
- * fuse.h is now installed in ${prefix}/include/fuse/
-
-2004-11-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Added "use_ino" mount option. This enables the filesystems to
- set the st_ino field on files
-
-2004-11-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix compile problems with ancient (<=2.4.18) kernels (reported

-
- * Reset request in fuse_flush() (bugreport by David Shaw)
-
-2004-10-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * fuse_main() now does not exit on error, rather it returns an
- error code
-
- * Exported __fuse_setup() and __fuse_teardown() functions, which
- make it easier to implement a custom event loop.
-
- * Use daemon() call to background the filesystem after mounting.
- This function closes the standard input, output and error and
- changes the current working directory to "/".
-
-2004-10-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Released 1.9
-
-2004-10-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- Shaw)
-
-2004-09-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add PID to fuse_context. Patch by Steven James
-
- * Change file handle type to 'unsigned long' in kernel interface
-
-2004-09-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * A slight API change: fuse_get_context() doesn't need the "fuse"
- pointer, but the returned context contains it instead. The
- fuse_get() function is not needed anymore, so it's removed.
-
- * Fix mounting and umounting FUSE filesystem under another FUSE
- filesystem by non-root (bug spotted by Valient Gough)
-
-2004-09-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix deadlock in case of memory allocation failure. Patch by
- Christian Magnusson
-
-2004-09-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Check memory allocation failures in libfuse
-
-2004-09-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Check temporary file creation failure in do_getdir(). Bug
- spotted by Terje Oseberg
-
-2004-09-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- causing missing release() call when program which has opened files
- is killed (reported by Franco Broi and David Shaw)
-
-2004-07-29 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add fuse_invalidate() to library API
-
-2004-07-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Check permissions in setattr if 'default_permissions' flag is
- set. Bug spotted by Damjan Lango
-
-2004-07-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * 'large_read' mount option removed for 2.6 kernels, since the
- default (dynamic read size) is better
-
- * Extend kernel API with file handles. A file handle is returned
- by open, and passed to read, write, flush, fsync and release.
- This is currently only used for debug output in the library.
-
- * Security changes:
-
- * Change the current directory to the mountpoint before checking
- the permissions and mount filesystem on "."
-
- * By default don't modprobe the fuse module for non-root. The old
- behavior can be restored with the '--enable-auto-modprobe' flag of
- ./configure
-
- * By default don't allow shared writable mappings for non-root.
- The old behavior can be restored with the 'user_mmap=1' module
- parameter
-
-2004-07-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Clean up mount option passing to fusermount and to fuse_new()
- BEWARE: this changes the userspace API slightly, and the command
- line usage of programs using fuse_main()
-
-2004-07-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Optimize reading under 2.6 kernels by issuing multiple page
- asynchronous read requests

-
- * Only use redirty_page_for_writepage() for kernels >= 2.6.6
-
-2004-07-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Separate directory entry and inode attribute validity timer
-
- * New write semaphore to stop page writeback during truncate
-
- * Fsync now waits for all writes to complete before sending the
- request
-
- * Optimization: if a page is completely written by
- fuse_commit_write(), clear the dirty flag and set the uptodate
- flag for that page
-
- * Some memory cleanup at exit
-
-2004-07-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add FUSE_HARD_REMOVE flag, and '-i' option to fuse main, which
- disable the "hide if open" behavior of unlink/rename.
-
- * If temporary buffer allocation fails in raw read, fall back to a
- smaller buffer
-
-2004-07-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix bug in do_open() in libfuse: open count was incremented
- after the reply is sent so it could race with unlink/forget and
- cause an abort.
-
-2004-07-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * When performing create or remove operation, refresh the parent's
- attributes on next revalidate, as i_nlink (and maybe size/time)
- could be inacurate.
-
- * Use redirty_page_for_writepage() in fuse_writepage() for skipped
- pages (2.6 only)
-
- * Set set_page_dirty address space operation (2.6 only)
-
-2004-07-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Minor fix in read: print debug info even if read size is zero
-
-2004-07-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix race between truncate and writepage (fsx-linux now runs
- without error)
-
-2004-07-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix kernel hang on mkfifo under 2.4 kernels (spotted and patch
- by Mattias Wadman)
-
- * Added option for direct read/write (-r)
-
- * Fix revalidate time setting for newly created inodes
-
- * Remove uid==0 check for '-x' option in fusermount (kernel checks
- this)
-
- * fuse_main() only installs handlers for signals (out of INT, HUP,
- TERM, PIPE), for which no handler has yet been installed
-
- * Add module option 'user_allow_other' which if set to non-zero
- will allow non root user to specify the 'allow_other' mount option
- ('-x' option of fusermount)
-
- * Fix deadlock between page writeback completion and truncate
- (bug found by Valient Gough with the fsx-linux utility)
-
-2004-07-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Change passing fuse include dir to 2.6 kernel make system more
- robust (fixes compile problems seen on SuSE 9.1 with updated 2.6
- kernel)
-
-2004-06-30 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Acquire inode->i_sem before open and release methods to prevent
- concurrent rename or unlink operations.
-
- * Make __fuse_read_cmd() read only one command. This allows
- multiplexing the fuse file descriptor with other event sources
- using select() or poll() (patch by Jeff Harris)
-
- * Export 'exited' flag with __fuse_exited() (patch by Jeff Harris)
-
-2004-06-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix file offset wrap around at 4G when doing large reads
-
-2004-06-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Fix memory leak in open (Valient Gough)

-
- * Requests are allocated at open time
-
-2004-06-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Build shared library as well as static (using libtool)
-
- * Change FUSE_MINOR_VERSION from 1 to 0. I know it's illegal but
- there has not been a release with the previous minor number, and I
- hope nobody is using it for anything.
-
- * Change fuse_main(), so that default behavior is to go into
- background if mount is successful. '-f' and '-d' options disable
- backgrounding. This fixes the "Why does my FUSE daemon hang?"
- newbie complaint.
-
- * Cache ENOSYS (function not implemented) errors on *xattr, flush
- and fsync
-
- * Don't call getdir method from open() only from first readdir().
- Open is sometimes just used to store the current directory
- (e.g. find)
-
-2004-05-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- * Added flush() call
-
-2004-05-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

- * Extended attributes operations added (getxattr, setxattr,
- listxattr, removexattr)
-
-2004-03-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * If filesystem doesn't define a statfs operation, then an
- all-zero default statfs is returned instead of ENOSYS
-
-2004-03-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA filesystem flag for kernels > 2.6.4

-
-2004-02-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Clean up option parsing in fuse_main()
-

-
- * more kernel interface changes:
-
- * added nanosecond precision to file times

- * added /proc/fs/fuse/version which contains MAJOR.MINOR
-
-2004-02-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * statfs library API changed to match other methods. Since this
- is not backward compatible FUSE_MAJOR_VERSION is changed to 2
-
- * kernel interface changes follow:

-2003-12-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
-
- * Add file locking for mount/unmount (based on patch by Valient
- Gough)
-
-2003-12-11 David McNab <david@rebirthing.co.nz>
-
- * Python filesystem - was broken with python2.3, now fixed:
- - changed PyTuple_* calls to PySequence_*, because os.lstat
- is no longer returning a pure tuple
- - changed PyInt_Check() calls to also call PyLong_Check,
- to cover for cases (eg os.lstat) where longs are returned
- - Added support for file 'release' handling, which IMO is
- essential since this signals to a FS that writes to a file
- are complete (and therefore the file can now be disposed of
- meaningfully at the python filesystem's discretion)
- - Added '__init__' handler to base Fuse class, which allows
- your Python class to know the mountpoint and mount args,
- as attributes myfs.mountpoint, myfs.optlist, myfs.optdict
-
- * General:
- - added 'mount.fuse' script (in util/ dir), which is meant to be
- symlinked from /sbin, and which allows FUSE filesystems to
- be mounted with the 'mount' command, and listed in fstab;
- also, mount arguments get passed to your filesystem

+Unreleased Changes
+==================
+
+* The channel interface (``fuse_chan_*`` functions) has been
+ made privat. The `struct fuse_chan_ops` data structure is now
+ opaque.
+
+* Added *clone_fd* option. This creates a separate device file
+ descriptor for each processing thread, which might improve
+ performance.
+
+* The (high- and low-level) `rename` handlers now takes a *flags*
+ parameter (with values corresponding to the *renameat2* system call
+ introduced in Linux 3.15).
+
+* The "ulockmgr_server" has been dropped.
+
+* There is a new (low-level) `readdirplus` handler, with a
+ corresponding example in ``examples/fuse_lo-plus.c`` and a new
+ `fuse_add_direntry_plus` API function.
+
+* The (high-level) `readdir` handler now takes a *flags* argument.
+
+* The (high-level) `filler` function passed to `readdir` now takes an
+ additional *flags* argument.
+
+* The (high-level) `getdir` handler has been dropped.
+
+* The *flag_nullpath_ok* and *flag_utime_omit_ok* flags have been
+ dropped.
+
+* The (high-level) *utime* handler has been dropped.
+
+* The `fuse_invalidate` function has been removed.
+
+* The `fuse_is_lib_option` function has been removed.
+
+* The *fh_old* member of `struct fuse_file_info` has been dropped.
+
+* The type of the *writepage* member of `struct fuse_file_info` was
+ changed from *int* to *unsigned int*.
+
+* The `struct fuse_file_info` gained a new *poll_events* member.
+
+* There is a new `fuse_pkgversion` function.
+
+* The *fuse_off_t* and *fuse_ino_t* changed from *unsigned long* to
+ *uint64_t*, i.e. they are now 64 bits also on 32-bit systems.
+
+* The type of the *generation* member of `struct fuse_entry_param*
+ changed from *unsigned* to *uint64_t*.
+
+* The (low-level) `setattr` handler gained a *FUSE_SET_ATTR_CTIME* bit
+ *for its *to_set* parameter.
+
+* The `struct fuse_session_ops` data structure has been dropped.
+
+* The documentation has been clarified and improved in many places.
+
+
+FUSE 2.9.7 (2016-06-20)
+=======================
+
+* Added SELinux support.
+* Fixed race-condition when session is terminated right after starting
+ a FUSE file system.
+
+FUSE 2.9.6 (2016-04-23)
+=======================
+
+* Tarball now includes documentation.
+* Shared-object version has now been bumped correctly.
+
+FUSE 2.9.5 (2016-01-14)
+=======================
+
+* New maintainer: Nikolaus Rath <Nikolaus@rath.org>. Many thanks to
+ Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> for bringing FUSE to where it is
+ now!
+
+* fix warning in mount.c:receive_fd(). Reported by Albert Berger
+
+* fix possible memory leak. Reported by Jose R. Guzman
+
+FUSE 2.9.4 (2015-05-22)
+=======================
+
+* fix exec environment for mount and umount. Found by Tavis Ormandy
+ (CVE-2015-3202).
+
+* fix fuse_remove_signal_handlers() to properly restore the default
+ signal handler. Reported by: Chris Johnson
+
+* highlevel API: fix directory file handle passed to ioctl() method.
+ Reported by Eric Biggers
+
+* libfuse: document deadlock avoidance for fuse_notify_inval_entry()
+ and fuse_notify_delete()
+
+* fusermount, libfuse: send value as unsigned in "user_id=" and
+ "group_id=" options. Uids/gids larger than 2147483647 would result
+ in EINVAL when mounting the filesystem. This also needs a fix in
+ the kernel.
+
+* Initilaize stat buffer passed to ->getattr() and ->fgetattr() to
+ zero in all cases. Reported by Daniel Iwan
+
+* libfuse: Add missing includes. This allows compiling fuse with
+ musl. Patch by Daniel Thau
+
+
+Older Versions (before 2013-01-01)
