2004-11-11 Miklos Szeredi * Check kernel interface version in fusermount to prevent strangeness in case of mismatch. 2004-11-10 Miklos Szeredi * Separate configure for the kernel directory * Don't allow write to return more than 'count' * Extend kernel interface for future use 2004-11-09 Miklos Szeredi * Fix 'makeconf.sh' to use autoreconf if available 2004-11-08 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * Added "use_ino" mount option. This enables the filesystems to set the st_ino field on files 2004-11-01 Miklos Szeredi * Fix compile problems with ancient (<=2.4.18) kernels (reported by Jeremy Smith) * Add "allow_root" mount option. Patch by Yaroslav Rastrigin * Clear the 'exited' flag when mail loop is finished 2004-10-28 Miklos Szeredi * Make xattr functions work under 2.6 (bug found by Vincenzo Ciancia) 2004-10-26 Miklos Szeredi * Reset request in fuse_flush() (bugreport by David Shaw) 2004-10-21 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * Released 1.9 2004-10-09 Miklos Szeredi * Don't allow fuse_flush() to be interrupted (bug found by David Shaw) 2004-09-27 Miklos Szeredi * Add PID to fuse_context. Patch by Steven James * Change file handle type to 'unsigned long' in kernel interface 2004-09-22 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * Fix deadlock in case of memory allocation failure. Patch by Christian Magnusson 2004-09-16 Miklos Szeredi * Check memory allocation failures in libfuse 2004-09-14 Miklos Szeredi * Check temporary file creation failure in do_getdir(). Bug spotted by Terje Oseberg 2004-09-13 Miklos Szeredi * Allow "large_read" option for 2.6 kernels but warn of deprecation * Make requests non-interruptible so race with FORGET is avoided. This is only a temporary solution * Support compiling FUSE kernel module on 2.4.x UML kernels 2004-09-09 Miklos Szeredi * Fix bug in case two FORGETs for the same node are executed in the wrong order. Bug spotted and endured for months by Franco Broi, and logfile for solution provided by Terje Oseberg 2004-09-01 Miklos Szeredi * Add -D_REENTRANT to the compile flags * Add documentation of fuse internals by Terje Oseberg 2004-08-16 Miklos Szeredi * Change release method to be non-interruptible. Fixes bug causing missing release() call when program which has opened files is killed (reported by Franco Broi and David Shaw) 2004-07-29 Miklos Szeredi * Add fuse_invalidate() to library API 2004-07-26 Miklos Szeredi * Check permissions in setattr if 'default_permissions' flag is set. Bug spotted by Damjan Lango 2004-07-24 Miklos Szeredi * '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 * 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 * Optimize reading under 2.6 kernels by issuing multiple page asynchronous read requests 2004-07-18 Miklos Szeredi * Only use redirty_page_for_writepage() for kernels >= 2.6.6 2004-07-16 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * 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 * 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 * 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 * Minor fix in read: print debug info even if read size is zero 2004-07-04 Miklos Szeredi * Fix race between truncate and writepage (fsx-linux now runs without error) 2004-07-02 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * 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 * 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 * Fix file offset wrap around at 4G when doing large reads 2004-06-24 Miklos Szeredi * Fix memory leak in open (Valient Gough) 2004-06-24 Miklos Szeredi * Add "close after delete" support to libfuse (patch by Valient Gough) * Cancel all worker threads before exit in multithreaded mode 2004-06-23 Miklos Szeredi * Fix locking bugs * Don't send reply to RELEASE * Work with newer libtool (1.5a) * Check for st_atim member of struct stat 2004-06-22 Miklos Szeredi * No request allocation needed on inode and file release 2004-06-21 Miklos Szeredi * Fix possible inode leak in userspace in case of unfinished lookup/mknod/mkdir/symlink/link operation. 2004-06-20 Miklos Szeredi * Fix some races and cleanups in fuse_read_super() 2004-06-19 Miklos Szeredi * Requests are allocated at open time 2004-06-03 Miklos Szeredi * 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 * Added flush() call 2004-05-04 Miklos Szeredi * Extended attributes support for 2.4 (patch by Cody Pisto) 2004-04-20 Miklos Szeredi * Fixed parser with modversions (Mattias Wadman) 2004-04-19 Miklos Szeredi * Added mount option parser to 2.4 build 2004-04-13 Miklos Szeredi * Replaced binary mount data with text options * Show FUSE specific mount options in /proc/mounts * Check in fuse.h whether _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is set to 64 2004-04-09 Miklos Szeredi * Check some limits so userspace won't get too big requests 2004-04-05 Miklos Szeredi * Kill compile warning * Upgraded user-mount patch for 2.6.5 2004-04-02 Miklos Szeredi * Add detection of user-mode-linux to configure 2004-03-31 Miklos Szeredi * fixed zero size case for getxattr and listxattr 2004-03-30 Miklos Szeredi * new fusermount flag '-z': lazy unmount, default is not lazy * Extended attributes operations added (getxattr, setxattr, listxattr, removexattr) 2004-03-25 Miklos Szeredi * If filesystem doesn't define a statfs operation, then an all-zero default statfs is returned instead of ENOSYS 2004-03-24 Miklos Szeredi * Add FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA filesystem flag for kernels > 2.6.4 2004-03-09 Miklos Szeredi * Fix for uClinux (Christian Magnusson) 2004-03-02 Miklos Szeredi * fuse_main() adds "-n progname" to the fusermount command line * More kernel interface changes: * Lookup/getattr return cache timeout values 2004-02-25 Miklos Szeredi * Clean up option parsing in fuse_main() * Added fuse_get() function which returns the fuse object created by fuse_main() 2004-02-20 Miklos Szeredi * removed old way of mounting (fusermount mountpoint program) * more kernel interface changes: * added nanosecond precision to file times * removed interface version from mount data * added /proc/fs/fuse/version which contains MAJOR.MINOR 2004-02-19 Miklos Szeredi * 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: * statfs changed to 64 bits, added 'bavail' field * add generation number to lookup result * optimized mknod/mkdir/symlink/link (no separate lookup is needed) * rdev size increased to 32 bits for mknod * kernel interface version changed to 3.1 2004-02-18 Miklos Szeredi * user-mount upgraded for 2.6.3 kernel 2004-02-17 Miklos Szeredi * Added user-mount.2.6.2-rc3.patch * Add FS_SAFE flag to fuse filesystem * fusermount should allow (un)mounting for non-root even if not suid-root 2004-02-12 Miklos Szeredi * Remove MS_PERMISSION mount flag (that means something else now) 2004-02-10 Miklos Szeredi * Added check for i_size_read/write functions to configure.in (patch by Valient Gough) 2004-02-06 Miklos Szeredi * Fixed writing >= 2G files * Check file size on open (with generic_file_open()) * Readpage calls flush_dcache_page() after storing data * Use i_size_read/write for accessing inode->i_size * Make loopback mount of a fuse file work 2004-02-04 Miklos Szeredi * Released 1.1 2004-01-29 Miklos Szeredi * Properly check if the inode exists in fuse_invalidate 2004-01-27 Miklos Szeredi * Added -q option for fusermount * fuse_unmount() now uses -q option of fusermount, so no error is printed if the cause of the program exit is that the filesystem has already been unmounted * Fix i_nlink correctness after rmdir/unlink 2004-01-26 Miklos Szeredi * Released 1.1-pre2 2004-01-26 Miklos Szeredi * Fix typo (thanks Marcos Dione) * Compile fixes for 2.4 kernels 2004-01-23 Miklos Szeredi * Fix CONFIG_MODVERSIONS compile on 2.6 2004-01-22 Miklos Szeredi * Write all pending data before a RELEASE operation * Suppress 'Bad file descriptor' warning on exit * Replaced fusermount option '-d xxx' with '-n xxx' so it doesn't get confused with '-d' of fuse_main() (sorry about this change) * New fusermount option '-l' which enables big reads. Big reads are now disabled by default. * fuse_main() can accept fusermount arguments after a '--' 2004-01-19 Miklos Szeredi * Support for exporting filesystem over NFS (see README.NFS) 2004-01-14 Miklos Szeredi * Support non-blocking writepage on 2.6. This makes FUSE behave much more nicely in low-memory situations * Fix 32-bit dev handling in getattr and mknod for 2.6 kernels. (Note: the mknod method does not yet use 32bit device number) 2004-01-13 Miklos Szeredi * Code cleanups 2004-01-07 Miklos Szeredi * Released 1.1-pre1 2004-01-06 Miklos Szeredi * Integrated 2.6 kernel support patch by Michael Grigoriev * Improvements and cleanups for 2.6 kernels 2004-01-05 Miklos Szeredi * Added -d option to fusermount 2003-12-15 Miklos Szeredi * Added major+minor version to library API, and minor version to kernel API 2003-12-13 David McNab * Implemented fsync support in examples/example.py * Implemented 'fsync' and 'statfs' methods in python interface 2003-12-12 Miklos Szeredi * Make it compile on 2.4.19. * Add fsync operation (write file failed on xemacs & vi) 2003-12-12 David McNab * Added distutils support to the python module, as per standard python development practice 2003-12-11 Miklos Szeredi * Add file locking for mount/unmount (based on patch by Valient Gough) 2003-12-11 David McNab * 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 2003-11-04 Miklos Szeredi * Fix kernel version detection (again). Bugreport by Peter Levart 2003-11-03 Miklos Szeredi * Applied read combining patch by Michael Grigoriev (tested by Valient Gough and Vincent Wagelaar) 2003-10-22 Miklos Szeredi * Mtab handling fix in fusermount by "Valient Gough" (SF patch #766443) 2003-10-13 Miklos Szeredi * Error code fixes in kernel module 2003-10-04 Miklos Szeredi * kernel version detection fix * fusermount now uses "lazy" umount option * fusermount can use modprobe with module-init-tools 2003-09-08 Miklos Szeredi * Integrated caching patch by Michael Grigoriev * Added "Filesystems" file with descriptions of projects using FUSE * Added patch by Michael Grigoriev to allow compliation of FUSE kernel module for 2.6 kernels 2003-06-02 Miklos Szeredi * And another spec-file fix by Achim Settelmeier 2003-05-26 Miklos Szeredi * Spec-file fix by Achim Settelmeier 2003-03-10 Miklos Szeredi * Fix umount oops (found by Samuli Kärkkäinen) 2003-03-05 Miklos Szeredi * Merge of fuse_redhat.spec and fuse.spec by Achim Settelmeier 2003-03-04 Miklos Szeredi * Updated fuse.spec file (Achim Settelmeier) 2003-02-19 Miklos Szeredi * Version 1.0 released 2003-02-12 Miklos Szeredi * SuSE compilation fix by Juan-Mariano de Goyeneche 2002-12-10 Miklos Szeredi * The release() VFS call is now exported to the FUSE interface 2002-12-05 Miklos Szeredi * 64 bit file offset fixes in the fuse kernel module * Added function 'fuse_exit()' which can be used to exit the main loop 2002-12-03 Miklos Szeredi * Added _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 define to fuse.h. Note, that this is an incompatible interface change. 2002-10-28 Miklos Szeredi * Portablility fix (bug reported by C. Chris Erway) 2002-10-25 Miklos Szeredi * Use Mark Glines' fd passing method for default operation instead of old reexec 2002-10-22 Miklos Szeredi * fix "Stale NFS file handle" bug caused by changes in 2.4.19 2002-10-22 Miklos Szeredi * fix incompatiblity with Red Hat kernels, with help from Nathan Thompson-Amato. 2002-04-18 Mark Glines * added an alternative to fuse_mount(), called fuse_mount_ioslave(), which does not need to reexec the FUSE program. * added a small helper util needed by fuse_mount_ioslave(). 2002-03-16 Mark Glines * use struct fuse_statfs everywhere possible to avoid problems with the headerfiles changing struct statfs member sizes 2002-03-01 Miklos Szeredi * Another RPM spec file for RedHat >= 7 by Ian Pilcher 2002-01-14 Miklos Szeredi * RPM support by Achim Settelmeier 2002-01-09 Miklos Szeredi * Version 0.95 released 2002-01-09 Miklos Szeredi * Revaidate all path components not just the last, this means a very small performance penalty for being more up-to-date. 2002-01-08 Miklos Szeredi * Update and fix python interface 2002-01-07 Mark Glines * Added statfs() support to kernel, lib, examples, and perl! 2001-12-26 Miklos Szeredi * Better cross compilation support * Ported to Compaq IPAQ 2001-12-20 Miklos Szeredi * Added function fuse_get_context() to library API (inspired by patch from Matt Ryan) * Added flags to fusermount and to kernel interface to control permission checking * Integrated fuse_set_operations() into fuse_new() 2001-12-08 Miklos Szeredi * Applied header protection + extern "C" patch by Roland Bauerschmidt 2001-12-02 Miklos Szeredi * Added perl bindings by Mark Glines 2001-11-21 Miklos Szeredi * Cleaned up way of mounting simple filesystems. * fuse_main() helper function added 2001-11-18 Miklos Szeredi * Optimized read/write operations, so that minimal copying of data is done 2001-11-14 Miklos Szeredi * Python bindings by Jeff Epler added 2001-11-13 Miklos Szeredi * Fixed vfsmount reference leak in fuse_follow_link * FS blocksize is set to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, blksize attribute from userspace is ignored 2001-11-09 Miklos Szeredi * Started ChangeLog
