+
+ * Released 2.9.4
+
+2015-05-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * libfuse: fix exec environment for mount and umount. Found by
+ Tavis Ormandy (CVE-2015-3202).
+
+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
+
+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.
+
+2014-03-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Initilaize stat buffer passed to ->getattr() and ->fgetattr() to
+ zero in all cases. Reported by Daniel Iwan

+
+ * Released 2.9.3
+
+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
+
+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

+ Anatol Pomozov
+
+2012-10-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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>
+
+ * Released 2.9.1
+
+2012-07-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix crash caused by freeing a stack address. Reported by Itay
+ Perl
+
+2012-07-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix install of mount.fuse from out-of-tree build. Patch by

+
+ * Fix build with automake >= 1.12.1. Patch by Olivier Blin
+
+2012-04-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+ later. Patch by Anatol Pomozov
+
+2012-05-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Linking to a library that uses threads requires the application
+ to be linked with -pthreads otherwise some pthread functions will
+ be linked to stubs in glibc. So move -pthread from Libs.private
+ to Libs in fuse.pc. Reported by Werner Fink
+
+ * Fix the compile command in the examples. Reported by Luciano
+ Dalle Ore
+
+2012-04-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2012-04-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add missing fuse_fs_flock to fuse_versionscript
+
+2012-04-10 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
+ Engelhardt

+ * Remove unnecessary mutex unlock at the end of multithreaded
+ event loop.
+
+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
+ Dreyfus
+
+ * 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>
+
+ * Fix missing versioned symbol fuse_get_context@FUSE_2.2
+
+2009-08-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Released 2.8.0
+
+2009-08-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add missing fuse_session_data to versionscript
+
+ * Make sure all global symbols are prefixed with "fuse_" or "cuse_"
+
+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.
+
+2009-06-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add missing fuse_reply_bmap to versionscript. Debian
+ Bug#531329. Reported by Goswin Brederlow
+
+2009-05-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Don't call forget_node() if the lookup was negative and write()
+ for the reply returned ENOENT. Reported by John Haxby
+
+2009-05-25 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add FUSE_CAP_EXPORT_SUPPORT to fuse_common.h
+
+2009-05-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix missing newlines in some printfs
+
+ * Fix 'make install-strip'. Reported by Dominick Layfield
+
+2009-01-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Released 2.8.0-pre2
+
+2008-12-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Implement poll support. Patch by Tejun Heo
+
+ * Add missing setattr flags to <fuse_lowlevel.h>.
+
+ * Only pass valid flags to ->setattr().
+
+2008-12-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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>
+
+ * If open sets fi->nonseekable, libfuse will tell the kernel that

+ * 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

+ * 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>
+

+
+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.

+2006-09-24 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 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

+
+2006-02-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix udev rule syntax. Reported by Nix
+
+2006-02-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+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

+
+ * 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
+

+
+ * Applied patch from Csaba Henk, to update mount_bsd to new

+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

+ * 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

+ configuring for a 2.4.x kernel. Bug report by Mark Haney
+
+ * In multithreaded loop send a TERM signal to the main thread if

+
+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>

+
+2005-11-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Change ->statfs() method to use 'struct statvfs' instead of

+ is defined by POSIX.
+
+2005-10-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add fgetattr() method, which currently will only be called after

+
+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

+ 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

+
+ * Released 2.4.0-rc1
+
+2005-09-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+ symlink to /proc/mounts. Reported by Balázs Pozsár.
+
+2005-09-23 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Check for special node ID values in lookup and creation
+
+2005-09-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Slight optimization in returning EINVAL error in case of an open
+ with O_DIRECT flag.
+
+2005-09-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Remove '--enable-auto-modprobe' configure flag. Module
+ 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>
+
+ * Set umask to zero in fusexmp and fusexmp_fh, so that
+ files/directories are created with the requested mode.
+
+2005-09-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Don't ignore read error in multithreaded loop
+
+2005-09-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Released 2.4.0-pre2
+
+2005-09-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Revert lock and access operations. Postpone these until 2.5.
+
+2005-09-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix compile warning on 2.6.13 and later
+
+ * Fix compilation on old kernels
+
+2005-08-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * lib: always refresh directory contents after rewinddir() to
+ conform to SUS. Bug found by John Muir.
+
+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>
+
+ * Add 'mount.fuse' written by Petr Klima
+
+ * '/dev/fuse' is created by 'make install' if does not yet exist
+
+2005-06-20 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>
+
+ * Add -msoft-float to kernel module compile flags for 2.4.X. This
+ is needed on certain architectures. Report from Chris Kirby
+
+ * Fix buggy behavior of open(..., O_CREAT|O_EXCL) if interrupted.
+ Reported by David Shaw
+
+ * Remove "allow_root" option from kernel module, and implement
+ it's functionality in the library
+
+ * Fix Oops caused by premature release of fuse_conn. Clean up
+ related code, to be more readable
+
+ * Sendfile should not use page cache if "direct_io" mount option
+ 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
+
+2005-04-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Released 2.3-pre4
+
+2005-04-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+ getdir() method.
+
+2005-04-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Released 2.3-pre3
+
+2005-04-03 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2005-04-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2005-04-01 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+
+ * lib: add readdir and releasedir methods
+
+ * lib: use fh field of fuse_file_info in opendir, readdir,
+ releasedir and fsyncdir methods
+
+ * lib: check kernel API version and bail out of it's old. This
+ 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>
+
+ * kernel: trivial cleanups
+
+2005-03-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2005-03-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * kernel: fix bug which could cause leave busy inodes after

+
+2005-03-08 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * examples: add -lpthread to link flags to work around valgrind

+
+ * lib: don't exit threads, so cancelation doesn't cause segfault
+
+2005-03-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * kernel: fix nasty bug which could cause an Oops under certain
+ situations. Found by Magnus Johansson
+
+2005-02-28 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * libfuse: added opendir() method. This can be used in case
+ permission checking in getdir() is too late. Thanks to Usarin
+ Heininga for pointing out this deficiency
+
+ * 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
+
+ * libfuse: add 'use_ino' option to help. Patch by Valient Gough
+
+2005-02-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2005-02-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2005-01-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+ Patch by Keshava Gowda
+
+2005-01-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * KERNEL: provide correct llseek semantics for fuse device (fixes
+ a bug on Progeny 2.4.20 kernel). Reported by Valient Gough
+
+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
+ are removed by setfsuid(), so this isn't even needed.
+
+2005-01-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * fix compilation on 2.4 kernels (reported by Valient Gough)
+
+ * fix failure to unmount bug (found by David Shaw)
+

+
+2005-01-13 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Remove 'mount_max' and 'user_allow_other' module options. These
+ are now checked by fusermount, and can be set in /etc/fuse.conf
+
+ * KERNEL: change check for fsid == 0 to capable(CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE)
+
+2005-01-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * KERNEL: fix possible inode allocation problem, where

+
+2005-01-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+ * Released 2.2-pre2
+
+2005-01-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+
+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>

+
+ * 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

+ including the fuse header
+
+ * Add binary compatibility to 2.1 version of library with symbol
+ versioning
+

+ * 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

+ * 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 /sys/fs/fuse/version instead of /proc/fs/fuse/version
+
+ * 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>
+
+ * Fix bug in fuse_readpages() causing Oops in certain situations.
+ Bug found by Vincenzo Ciancia.
+
+ * Fix compilation with kernels versions > 2.6.9.
+
+2004-11-11 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Check kernel interface version in fusermount to prevent
+ strangeness in case of mismatch.
+
+ * No need to allocate fuse_conn until actual mount happens
+
+ * Fix potential race between umount and fuse_invalidate
+
+ * Check superblock of proc file in addition to inode number
+
+ * Fix race between request_send_noreply() and fuse_dev_release()
+
+2004-11-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <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
+ 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Make xattr functions work under 2.6 (bug found by Vincenzo
+ Ciancia)
+
+2004-10-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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>
+
+ * Don't allow fuse_flush() to be interrupted (bug found by David
+ 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>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Add -D_REENTRANT to the compile flags
+
+ * Add documentation of fuse internals by Terje Oseberg
+
+2004-08-16 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <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
+
+2004-07-18 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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)
+
+2004-06-24 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix locking bugs
+
+ * Don't send reply to RELEASE
+

+
+ * Check for st_atim member of struct stat
+
+2004-06-22 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * No request allocation needed on inode and file release
+
+2004-06-21 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix possible inode leak in userspace in case of unfinished
+ lookup/mknod/mkdir/symlink/link operation.
+
+2004-06-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix some races and cleanups in fuse_read_super()
+
+2004-06-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 support for 2.4 (patch by Cody Pisto)
+
+2004-04-20 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+
+2004-04-19 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+ * fixed zero size case for getxattr and listxattr

+
+ * 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
+
+2004-03-09 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Fix for uClinux (Christian Magnusson)
+
+2004-03-02 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <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:
+
+ * statfs changed to 64 bits, added 'bavail' field
+
+ * add generation number to lookup result
+
+ * optimized mknod/mkdir/symlink/link (no separate lookup is
+ needed)

+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Remove MS_PERMISSION mount flag (that means something else now)
+
+2004-02-10 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Added check for i_size_read/write functions to configure.in

+
+ * Properly check if the inode exists in fuse_invalidate
+
+2004-01-27 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+

+
+ * fuse_unmount() now uses -q option of fusermount, so no error is

+
+2004-01-26 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Support for exporting filesystem over NFS (see README.NFS)
+
+2004-01-14 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * 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 <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Code cleanups
+
+2004-01-07 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2004-01-06 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Integrated 2.6 kernel support patch by Michael Grigoriev
+

+
+2004-01-05 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Added -d option to fusermount
+
+2003-12-15 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

+
+2003-12-13 David McNab <david@rebirthing.co.nz>
+

+
+ * Implemented 'fsync' and 'statfs' methods in python
+ interface
+
+2003-12-12 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
+
+ * Make it compile on 2.4.19.
+
+ * Add fsync operation (write file failed on xemacs & vi)
+
+2003-12-12 David McNab <david@rebirthing.co.nz>
+
+ * Added distutils support to the python module, as per standard
+ python development practice
+
+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
+
+
+2003-11-04 Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
