libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source
files that open /dev/fuse and perform the mount(2) system call. The
FUSE filesystem must be linked with -lperfuse.

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or
any FUSE filesystem that opens /dev/fuse directly can be used.

For now, an external daemon called perfused(8) is used. This may change
in the future.

Use reclaim2 to fix reclaim/lookup race conditions

The PUFFS reclaim operation had a race condition with lookups: we could
be asked to lookup a node, then to reclaim it before lookup completion.
At lookup completion, we would then create a leaked node.

Enter the PUFFS reclaim2 operation, which features a nlookup argument.
That let us count how many lookups are pending and avoid the above
described scenario. It also makes the codes simplier.

branches: 1.12.24; 1.12.30; 1.12.32;
- Fix same vnodes associated with multiple cookies
The scheme used to retreive known nodes on lookup was flawed, as it only
used parent and name. This produced a different cookie for the same file
if it was renamed, when looking up ../ or when dealing with multiple files
associated with the same name through link(2).

We therefore abandon the use of node name and introduce hashed lists of
inodes. This causes a huge rewrite of reclaim code, which do not attempt
to keep parents allocated until all their children are reclaimed

- Fix race conditions in reclaim
There are a few situations where we issue multiple FUSE operations for
a PUFFS operation. On reclaim, we therefore have to wait for all FUSE
operation to complete, not just the current exchanges. We do this by
introducing node reference count with node_ref() and node_rele().

- Detect data loss caused by FAF
VOP_PUTPAGES causes FAF writes where the kernel does not check the
operation result. At least issue a warning on error.

- Enjoy FAF shortcut on setattr
No need to wait for the result if the kernel does not want it. There is
however an exception for setattr that touch the size, we need to wait
for completion because we have other operations queued for after the
resize.

- Fix fchmod() on write-open file
fchmod() on a node open with write privilege will send setattr with both mode and size set. This confuses some FUSE filesystem. Therefore we send two FUSE operations, one for mode, and one for size.

- Remove node TTL handling for netbsd-5 for simplicity sake. The code
still builds on netbsd-5 but does not have the node TTL feature anymore.
It works fine with kernel support on netbsd-6.

1.5 03-Oct-2010 manu

branches: 1.5.6;
- Correctly handle rename whith overwritten destination
- Keep track of file name to avoid lookups when we can. This makes sure we
do not have two cookies for the same inode, a situation that cause wreak
havoc when we come to remove or rename a node.
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH at all, since we now track file names
- In open, queue requests after checking for access, as there is no merit
to queue a will-be-denied request while we can deny it immediatly
- request reclaim of removed nodes at inactive stage


1.4 29-Sep-2010 manu

= Open files =
- Restore open on our own in fsycn and readdir, as the node may not already
be open, and FUSE really wants it to be. No need to close immediatly, it
can be done at inactive time.

= Write operations =
- fix a nasty bug that corrupted files on write (written added twice)
- Keep track of file size in order to honour PUFFS_IO_APPEND

= many fixes in rename =
- handler overwritten nodes correctly
- wait for all operations on the node to drain before doing rename, as
filesystems may not cope with operations on a moving file.
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_INACT_N1 cannot be used from rename, we therefore
miss the inactive time for an overwritten node. This bounds us to give up
PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND.

= Removed files =
- forbid most operations on a removed node, return ENOENT
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_NOREF_N1 at inactive stage to cause removed
file reclaim

= Misc =
- Update outdated ARGSUSED for lint
- Fix a memory leak (puffs_pn_remove instead of puffs_pn_put)
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH except for debug output. It makes the
lookup code much simplier.


1.3 23-Sep-2010 manu

== file close operations ==
- use PUFFS_KFLAG_WTCACHE to puffs_init so that all writes are
immediatly send to the filesystem, and we do not have anymore write
after inactive. As a consequence, we can close files at inactive
stage, and there is not any concern left with files opened at
create time. We also do not have anymore to open ourselves in readdir and
fsync.

- Fsync on close (inactive stage). That makes sure we will not need to
do these operations once the file is closed (FUSE want an open file).
short sircuit the request that come after the close, bu not fsinc'ing
closed files,

- Use PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND to get less inactive calls

== Removed nodes ==
- more ENOENT retunred for operations on removed node (but there
are probably some still missing): getattr, ooen, setattr, fsync

- set PND_REMOVE before sending the UNLINK/RMDIR operations so that we avoid
races during UNLINK completion. Also set PND_REMOVED on node we overwirte
in rename

== Filehandle fixes ==
- queue open operation to avoid getting two fh for one file

- set FH in getattr, if the file is open

- Just requires a read FH for fsyncdir, as we always opendir in read
mode. Ok, this is misleading :-)

== Misc ==
- do not set FUSE_FATTR_ATIME_NOW in setattr, as we provide the time

- short circuit nilpotent operations in setattr

- add a filename diagnostic flag to dump file names


1.2 15-Sep-2010 manu

- Use SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_STREAM, as the filesystem seems to
assume datagram semantics: when using SOCK_STREAM, if perfused sends
frames faster than the filesystem consumes them, it will grab multiple
frames at once and discard anything beyond the first one. For now the
code can work both with SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM, but SOCK_STREAM
support will probably have to be removed for the sake of readability.

- Remeber to sync parent directories when moving a node

- In debug output, display the requeue type (readdir, write, etc...)

Make FUSE socket buffer tunable

When dealing with high I/O throughput, we could run out of buffer
space if the filesystem was not consuming requests fast enough.
Here we slightly raise the buffer size, and we make it tunable
through the PERFUSE_BUFSIZE environment variable so that we can
cope with higher requirement later.

While there, document PERFUSE_OPTIONS environment variable.

1.1 25-Aug-2010 manu

libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source
files that open /dev/fuse and perform the mount(2) system call. The
FUSE filesystem must be linked with -lperfuse.

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or
any FUSE filesystem that opens /dev/fuse directly can be used.

For now, an external daemon called perfused(8) is used. This may change
in the future.

Rollback directory filehandle screening for FUSE lock operations

libfuse has a different usage of filehandles for files and directories.
A directory filehandle is valid only for directory operations such
as OPENDIR, READDIR, RELEASEDIR, FSYNCDIR. Change of src/lib/libperfuse/ops.c
1.85-1.86 made sure filehandles of directories were only sent for that
operations.

However, the status of lock operations GETLK, SETLK, SETLKW was overlooked.
The only FUSE filesystem I found using locks is GlusterFS, and it needs
directory filehandles to be provided on lock operations, otherwise locking
crashes the filesystem. Hence this change brings back filehandles for
lock operations on directories.

Use reclaim2 to fix reclaim/lookup race conditions

The PUFFS reclaim operation had a race condition with lookups: we could
be asked to lookup a node, then to reclaim it before lookup completion.
At lookup completion, we would then create a leaked node.

Enter the PUFFS reclaim2 operation, which features a nlookup argument.
That let us count how many lookups are pending and avoid the above
described scenario. It also makes the codes simplier.

Fix dot-lookup when readdir does not provide inodes

Some filesystems do not provide inode numbers through readdir (FUSE mounts
without -o use_ino). We therefore have to lookup each directory entry to
get the missing numbers.

dot and double-dot are exceptions, as we already know the values. Moreover,
the lookup code does not expect to get requests for dot and will abort
perfused(8) when it gets some. In order to fix that, we just check for
dot and double-dot special case and use the known values instead of sending
a lookup.

Add PUFFS_KFLAG_NOFLUSH_META to prevent sending metadata flush to FUSE

FUSE filesystems do not expect to get metadata updates for [amc]time
and size, they updates the value on their own after operations.

The PUFFS PUFFS_KFLAG_NOFLUSH_META option prevents regular metadata cache
flushes to the filesystem , and libperfuse uses it to match Linux FUSE
behavior.

While there, fix a bug in SETATTR: do not update kernel metadata cache
from SETATTR reply when the request is asynchronous, as we do not have
the reply yet.


1.82 13-Jan-2015 manu

Fix atime update

FUSE filesystems assume that SETATTR with atime is the result of utiimes()
being called. As a result, atime and mtime will be updated. This happens
with MooseFS and glusterFS. atime is supposed to be updated by the
filesystem itself when it gets read operations.

We fix the problem in SETATTR operations by
1) do not create a mtime update when we have an atime update (and vice
versa), just fill the fields to avoid the filesystem restting the
missing field to Epoch, but do not pretend we want to update it.
2) If the change is limited to atime, iscard it, as updates should be
done by READ operations
3) Kernel part of PUFFS has been fixed to make sure reads on empty file
are sent to the filesystem:

- Fix same vnodes associated with multiple cookies
The scheme used to retreive known nodes on lookup was flawed, as it only
used parent and name. This produced a different cookie for the same file
if it was renamed, when looking up ../ or when dealing with multiple files
associated with the same name through link(2).

We therefore abandon the use of node name and introduce hashed lists of
inodes. This causes a huge rewrite of reclaim code, which do not attempt
to keep parents allocated until all their children are reclaimed

- Fix race conditions in reclaim
There are a few situations where we issue multiple FUSE operations for
a PUFFS operation. On reclaim, we therefore have to wait for all FUSE
operation to complete, not just the current exchanges. We do this by
introducing node reference count with node_ref() and node_rele().

- Detect data loss caused by FAF
VOP_PUTPAGES causes FAF writes where the kernel does not check the
operation result. At least issue a warning on error.

- Enjoy FAF shortcut on setattr
No need to wait for the result if the kernel does not want it. There is
however an exception for setattr that touch the size, we need to wait
for completion because we have other operations queued for after the
resize.

- Fix fchmod() on write-open file
fchmod() on a node open with write privilege will send setattr with both mode and size set. This confuses some FUSE filesystem. Therefore we send two FUSE operations, one for mode, and one for size.

- Remove node TTL handling for netbsd-5 for simplicity sake. The code
still builds on netbsd-5 but does not have the node TTL feature anymore.
It works fine with kernel support on netbsd-6.

Serialize access to file size. We already have such a thing in the
kernel, where it fixes race for PUFFS filesystems, but we need it again

The huge issue is in the asyncrhonous SETATTR sent by fsync. It is
followed by a syncrhnous FSYNC, so if the filesystem does not reorder
requests, once the FSYNC returns, we are confident the SETATTR is done.
But since FUSE can reorder, we need to implement sync in perfused.

ftruncate(2) cause a SETATTR with only va_size set, and some filesystems
(e.g.: glusterfs) will do a custom handling in such a situation. This
breaks because libpuffs folds a metadata (va_atime and va_mtime) update
in each SETATTR. We try to identify SETATTR caused by ftruncate(2) and
remove va_atime and va_mtime in such situation.

This fixes a bug with glusterfs, where parts of a file downloaded by
FTP was filled with zeros because of a ftruncate(2) sent out of order
with write(2) requests. glusterfs behavior depends on the undocumented
FUSE rule that ftruncate(2) will only set va_size in SETATTR.

FUSE struct dirent's off is not the offset in the buffer, it is an opaque

Add a flag to VOP_LISTEXTATTR(9) so that the vnode interface can tell the

- one byte length-pprefixed, non NUL-terminated strings, used for
extattr_list_file(2), which is obtanined by setting the
EXTATTR_LIST_PREFIXLEN flag to VOP_LISTEXTATTR(9)

This approach avoid the need for converting the list back and forth, except
in libperfuse, since FUSE uses NUL-terminated strings, and the kernel may
have requested EXTATTR_LIST_PREFIXLEN.

specific string. That is of little interest except for my own future
reference).

Verification is now done in the lookup method, as it is the way to
go. Of course there are corner cases, such as the sticky bit which
need special handling in the remove method.

- Set full fsidx in vftstat method

- Do not pass O_APPEND to the filesystem. FUSE always sends the
write offset, so setting O_APPEND is useless. If the filesystem
uses it in an open(2) system call, it will even cause file
corruptions, since offsets given to pwrite(2) will be ignored.
This fix allows glusterfs to host a NetBSD ./build.sh -o build

- Do not use the FUSE access method, use getattr and check for
permission on our own. The problem is that a FUSE filesystem will
typically use the Linux-specific setfsuid() to perform access
control. If that is missing, any chack is likely to occur on
behalf of the user running the filesystem (typically root), causing
access method to return wrong information.

- When possible, avoid performing a getattr method call and use
cached value in puffs_node instead. We still retreive the latest
value by calling getattr when performing append write operation,
to minimize the chances that another writer appended since the
last time we did.

- Update puffs_node cached file size in write method

Remove code supporting SOCK_STREAM, as SOCK_DGRAM works fine


1.22 11-Oct-2010 manu

FUSE filesystems' readlink returns a resolved link with a NUL trailing
character, and PUFFS do not want it. This fixes this bug, that returned
stat the informations for x instead of reporting ENOENT:
mkdir x && ln x z && stat -x z/whatever/you/want


1.21 11-Oct-2010 manu

- fix access control: pcn->pcn_cred is not user credentials
- Keep track of file generation
- remove size tracking in pnd_size, we have it in pn_va.va_size


1.20 04-Oct-2010 manu

- delete an obsoelte comment about inactive
- remove a test for getattr return field that was never filled
- correctly send filehandle and filehandle flags for getaattr


1.19 03-Oct-2010 manu

- Correctly handle rename whith overwritten destination
- Keep track of file name to avoid lookups when we can. This makes sure we
do not have two cookies for the same inode, a situation that cause wreak
havoc when we come to remove or rename a node.
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH at all, since we now track file names
- In open, queue requests after checking for access, as there is no merit
to queue a will-be-denied request while we can deny it immediatly
- request reclaim of removed nodes at inactive stage


1.18 29-Sep-2010 manu

= Open files =
- Restore open on our own in fsycn and readdir, as the node may not already
be open, and FUSE really wants it to be. No need to close immediatly, it
can be done at inactive time.

= Write operations =
- fix a nasty bug that corrupted files on write (written added twice)
- Keep track of file size in order to honour PUFFS_IO_APPEND

= many fixes in rename =
- handler overwritten nodes correctly
- wait for all operations on the node to drain before doing rename, as
filesystems may not cope with operations on a moving file.
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_INACT_N1 cannot be used from rename, we therefore
miss the inactive time for an overwritten node. This bounds us to give up
PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND.

= Removed files =
- forbid most operations on a removed node, return ENOENT
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_NOREF_N1 at inactive stage to cause removed
file reclaim

= Misc =
- Update outdated ARGSUSED for lint
- Fix a memory leak (puffs_pn_remove instead of puffs_pn_put)
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH except for debug output. It makes the
lookup code much simplier.


1.17 23-Sep-2010 manu

== file close operations ==
- use PUFFS_KFLAG_WTCACHE to puffs_init so that all writes are
immediatly send to the filesystem, and we do not have anymore write
after inactive. As a consequence, we can close files at inactive
stage, and there is not any concern left with files opened at
create time. We also do not have anymore to open ourselves in readdir and
fsync.

- Fsync on close (inactive stage). That makes sure we will not need to
do these operations once the file is closed (FUSE want an open file).
short sircuit the request that come after the close, bu not fsinc'ing
closed files,

- Use PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND to get less inactive calls

== Removed nodes ==
- more ENOENT retunred for operations on removed node (but there
are probably some still missing): getattr, ooen, setattr, fsync

- set PND_REMOVE before sending the UNLINK/RMDIR operations so that we avoid
races during UNLINK completion. Also set PND_REMOVED on node we overwirte
in rename

== Filehandle fixes ==
- queue open operation to avoid getting two fh for one file

- set FH in getattr, if the file is open

- Just requires a read FH for fsyncdir, as we always opendir in read
mode. Ok, this is misleading :-)

== Misc ==
- do not set FUSE_FATTR_ATIME_NOW in setattr, as we provide the time

- short circuit nilpotent operations in setattr

- add a filename diagnostic flag to dump file names


1.16 20-Sep-2010 manu

- performance improvement for read, readdir and write. Now we use
SOCK_DGRAM, we can send many pages at once without hitting any bug

- when creating a file, it is open for FUSE, but not for the kernel.
If the kernel does not do a subsequent open, we have a leak. We fight
against this by trying to close such file that the kernel left unopen
for some time.

- some code refactoring to make message exchange debug easier (more to come)


1.15 15-Sep-2010 manu

- Use SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_STREAM, as the filesystem seems to
assume datagram semantics: when using SOCK_STREAM, if perfused sends
frames faster than the filesystem consumes them, it will grab multiple
frames at once and discard anything beyond the first one. For now the
code can work both with SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM, but SOCK_STREAM
support will probably have to be removed for the sake of readability.

- Remeber to sync parent directories when moving a node

- In debug output, display the requeue type (readdir, write, etc...)


1.14 09-Sep-2010 manu

- call FSYNCDIR for directories
- directories can be open R/W (for FSYNCDIR)
- do not skip calls to FSYNC or FSYNCDIR if the filesystem returned ENOSYS:
it may change its mind, and it may also actually do something when retunring
ENOSYS
- When FSYNC and FSYNCDIR return ENOSYS, do not report it to kernel (silent
failure)


1.13 07-Sep-2010 manu

Mode argument must contain the file type (S_* items) for create and mknod


1.12 07-Sep-2010 manu

- Do not checkfor peer credentials when perfused is autostarted and
therefore runs with filesystem privileges

- shut up warnings and debug messages when perfused is autostarted

- make perfused patch modifiable with CFLAGS for easier pkgsrc integration

- Fix build warnings


1.11 06-Sep-2010 manu

More LP64 fixes


1.10 06-Sep-2010 manu

build fixes for LP64


1.9 05-Sep-2010 manu

- correctly set flags for CREATE

- after a node is deleted, some operations should return ENOENT, some
should be ignored. Fixed it for ACCESS, SETATTR and GETATTR. Other
operation may also need a fix.

- At reclaim time, there is no need to wait for READDIR and READ
completion, since the caller will never close a file before getting
readir() and read() replies. Waiting for WRITE completion is still
mandatory, but we must ensure that no queued WRITE is awaiting to
be scheduled. Once the queue is drained, we must check that the
reclaim operation was not canceled by a new file LOOKUP.

- At reclaim time, fixed a mix up between read and write fh to close

- Fixed permission checks for RENAME (it tested the node itself
instead of the source)

- When seting file mode, only MKNOD needs the filetype (S_* fields).
It is probably a bug to set it for other operations.


1.8 03-Sep-2010 manu

Fix reference count bug introduced by previous commit


1.7 03-Sep-2010 manu

- Postpone file close at reclaim time, since NetBSD sends fsync and
setattr(mtime, ctime) after close, while FUSE expects the file
to be open for these operations

- remove unused argument to node_mk_common()

- remove requeued requests when they are executed, not when they
are tagged for schedule

- try to make filehandle management simplier, by keeping track of only
one read and one write filehandle (the latter being really read/write).

- when CREATE is not available, we use the MKNOD/OPEN path. Fix a
bug here where we opened the parent directory instead of the node:
add the missing lookup of the mknod'ed node.

- lookup file we just created: glusterfs does not really see them
otherwise.

- open file when doing setattr(mtime, ctime) on non open files, as
some filesystems seems to require it.

- Do not flush pagecache for removed nodes

- Keep track of read/write operations in progress, and at reclaim
time, make sure they are over before closing and forgeting the file.


1.6 02-Sep-2010 manu

- only remove queued requests once they are executed, not when they
are set to be scheduled later
- remove an unused argument to make lint happy


1.5 01-Sep-2010 manu

Build fixes for LP64


1.4 28-Aug-2010 manu

- set user/group ownership after object creation.

- enforce permissios checks. This needs to be reviewed.


1.3 27-Aug-2010 manu

- if perfused is not already started (cannot connect to /dev/fuse),
FUSE filesystems will attempt to start it on their own, and will
communicate using a socketpair

- do not advertise NULL file handle as being valid when sending themback to the FUSE filesystem.

- unmount if we cannot talk to the FUSE process anymore

- set calling process gid properly

- debug message cleanup


1.2 26-Aug-2010 manu

- open the file before doing fsync: glusterfs wants that.

- Automatically call fsync on close for files. If we just close, fsync
will come later and we will have to reopen

- Add a PND_DIRTY flag to keep track of files that really need a sync.
perfuse_node_fsync only calls the FUSE fsync method if there are data
to push.

- Add a PND_OPEN flag to keep track of open files. Checking non NULL
fh is not enough, as some filesystems will always set fh to 0.

- Add a sync diagnostic flag, to watch fsync and dirty flag activity.
Make the fh diagnostic flag more verbose

- Send the fh in setattr (it was hardcoded to 0)

I am now able to build libperfuse in a glusterfs mounted filesystem. Yeah!


1.1 25-Aug-2010 manu

libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source
files that open /dev/fuse and perform the mount(2) system call. The
FUSE filesystem must be linked with -lperfuse.

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or
any FUSE filesystem that opens /dev/fuse directly can be used.

For now, an external daemon called perfused(8) is used. This may change
in the future.

Use reclaim2 to fix reclaim/lookup race conditions

The PUFFS reclaim operation had a race condition with lookups: we could
be asked to lookup a node, then to reclaim it before lookup completion.
At lookup completion, we would then create a leaked node.

Enter the PUFFS reclaim2 operation, which features a nlookup argument.
That let us count how many lookups are pending and avoid the above
described scenario. It also makes the codes simplier.

Make FUSE socket buffer tunable

When dealing with high I/O throughput, we could run out of buffer
space if the filesystem was not consuming requests fast enough.
Here we slightly raise the buffer size, and we make it tunable
through the PERFUSE_BUFSIZE environment variable so that we can
cope with higher requirement later.

While there, document PERFUSE_OPTIONS environment variable.

Add PUFFS_KFLAG_NOFLUSH_META to prevent sending metadata flush to FUSE

FUSE filesystems do not expect to get metadata updates for [amc]time
and size, they updates the value on their own after operations.

The PUFFS PUFFS_KFLAG_NOFLUSH_META option prevents regular metadata cache
flushes to the filesystem , and libperfuse uses it to match Linux FUSE
behavior.

While there, fix a bug in SETATTR: do not update kernel metadata cache
from SETATTR reply when the request is asynchronous, as we do not have
the reply yet.

Enable the featuure for perfused, as this is how FUSE works.


1.29 21-Jul-2012 manu

- Fix same vnodes associated with multiple cookies
The scheme used to retreive known nodes on lookup was flawed, as it only
used parent and name. This produced a different cookie for the same file
if it was renamed, when looking up ../ or when dealing with multiple files
associated with the same name through link(2).

We therefore abandon the use of node name and introduce hashed lists of
inodes. This causes a huge rewrite of reclaim code, which do not attempt
to keep parents allocated until all their children are reclaimed

- Fix race conditions in reclaim
There are a few situations where we issue multiple FUSE operations for
a PUFFS operation. On reclaim, we therefore have to wait for all FUSE
operation to complete, not just the current exchanges. We do this by
introducing node reference count with node_ref() and node_rele().

- Detect data loss caused by FAF
VOP_PUTPAGES causes FAF writes where the kernel does not check the
operation result. At least issue a warning on error.

- Enjoy FAF shortcut on setattr
No need to wait for the result if the kernel does not want it. There is
however an exception for setattr that touch the size, we need to wait
for completion because we have other operations queued for after the
resize.

- Fix fchmod() on write-open file
fchmod() on a node open with write privilege will send setattr with both mode and size set. This confuses some FUSE filesystem. Therefore we send two FUSE operations, one for mode, and one for size.

- Remove node TTL handling for netbsd-5 for simplicity sake. The code
still builds on netbsd-5 but does not have the node TTL feature anymore.
It works fine with kernel support on netbsd-6.

- When using PUFFS_KFLAG_CACHE_FS_TTL, do not use puffs_node to carry

- Remove node_mk_common_final in libperfuse. It used to set uid/gid for
a newly created vnode but has been made redundant along time ago since
uid and gid are properly set in FUSE header.
- In libperfuse, check for corner case where opc = 0 on INACTIVE and RECLAIM (how is it possible? Check for it to avoid a crash anyway)
- In libperfuse, make sure we unlimit RLIMIT_AS and RLIMIT_DATA so that
we do notrun out of memory because the kernel is lazy at reclaiming vnodes.
- In libperfuse, cleanup style of perfuse_destroy_pn()

Set buffer size as big in nomal mode as we do in debug mode, when

1.12 25-Apr-2011 manu

- Implement proper unprivilegied user permission verifications
Verification is now done in the lookup method, as it is the way to
go. Of course there are corner cases, such as the sticky bit which
need special handling in the remove method.

- Set full fsidx in vftstat method

- Do not pass O_APPEND to the filesystem. FUSE always sends the
write offset, so setting O_APPEND is useless. If the filesystem
uses it in an open(2) system call, it will even cause file
corruptions, since offsets given to pwrite(2) will be ignored.
This fix allows glusterfs to host a NetBSD ./build.sh -o build

- Do not use the FUSE access method, use getattr and check for
permission on our own. The problem is that a FUSE filesystem will
typically use the Linux-specific setfsuid() to perform access
control. If that is missing, any chack is likely to occur on
behalf of the user running the filesystem (typically root), causing
access method to return wrong information.

- When possible, avoid performing a getattr method call and use
cached value in puffs_node instead. We still retreive the latest
value by calling getattr when performing append write operation,
to minimize the chances that another writer appended since the
last time we did.

- Update puffs_node cached file size in write method

- Remove unused argument to perfuse_destroy_pn()

libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source
files that open /dev/fuse and perform the mount(2) system call. The
FUSE filesystem must be linked with -lperfuse.

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or
any FUSE filesystem that opens /dev/fuse directly can be used.

For now, an external daemon called perfused(8) is used. This may change
in the future.

- Fix same vnodes associated with multiple cookies
The scheme used to retreive known nodes on lookup was flawed, as it only
used parent and name. This produced a different cookie for the same file
if it was renamed, when looking up ../ or when dealing with multiple files
associated with the same name through link(2).

We therefore abandon the use of node name and introduce hashed lists of
inodes. This causes a huge rewrite of reclaim code, which do not attempt
to keep parents allocated until all their children are reclaimed

- Fix race conditions in reclaim
There are a few situations where we issue multiple FUSE operations for
a PUFFS operation. On reclaim, we therefore have to wait for all FUSE
operation to complete, not just the current exchanges. We do this by
introducing node reference count with node_ref() and node_rele().

- Detect data loss caused by FAF
VOP_PUTPAGES causes FAF writes where the kernel does not check the
operation result. At least issue a warning on error.

- Enjoy FAF shortcut on setattr
No need to wait for the result if the kernel does not want it. There is
however an exception for setattr that touch the size, we need to wait
for completion because we have other operations queued for after the
resize.

- Fix fchmod() on write-open file
fchmod() on a node open with write privilege will send setattr with both mode and size set. This confuses some FUSE filesystem. Therefore we send two FUSE operations, one for mode, and one for size.

- Remove node TTL handling for netbsd-5 for simplicity sake. The code
still builds on netbsd-5 but does not have the node TTL feature anymore.
It works fine with kernel support on netbsd-6.

Serialize access to file size. We already have such a thing in the
kernel, where it fixes race for PUFFS filesystems, but we need it again
in perfused since FUSE filesystems are allowed to reorder requests.

The huge issue is in the asyncrhonous SETATTR sent by fsync. It is
followed by a syncrhnous FSYNC, so if the filesystem does not reorder
requests, once the FSYNC returns, we are confident the SETATTR is done.
But since FUSE can reorder, we need to implement sync in perfused.

Remove code supporting SOCK_STREAM, as SOCK_DGRAM works fine


1.9 23-Sep-2010 manu

== file close operations ==
- use PUFFS_KFLAG_WTCACHE to puffs_init so that all writes are
immediatly send to the filesystem, and we do not have anymore write
after inactive. As a consequence, we can close files at inactive
stage, and there is not any concern left with files opened at
create time. We also do not have anymore to open ourselves in readdir and
fsync.

- Fsync on close (inactive stage). That makes sure we will not need to
do these operations once the file is closed (FUSE want an open file).
short sircuit the request that come after the close, bu not fsinc'ing
closed files,

- Use PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND to get less inactive calls

== Removed nodes ==
- more ENOENT retunred for operations on removed node (but there
are probably some still missing): getattr, ooen, setattr, fsync

- set PND_REMOVE before sending the UNLINK/RMDIR operations so that we avoid
races during UNLINK completion. Also set PND_REMOVED on node we overwirte
in rename

== Filehandle fixes ==
- queue open operation to avoid getting two fh for one file

- set FH in getattr, if the file is open

- Just requires a read FH for fsyncdir, as we always opendir in read
mode. Ok, this is misleading :-)

== Misc ==
- do not set FUSE_FATTR_ATIME_NOW in setattr, as we provide the time

- short circuit nilpotent operations in setattr

- add a filename diagnostic flag to dump file names


1.8 15-Sep-2010 manu

- Use SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_STREAM, as the filesystem seems to
assume datagram semantics: when using SOCK_STREAM, if perfused sends
frames faster than the filesystem consumes them, it will grab multiple
frames at once and discard anything beyond the first one. For now the
code can work both with SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM, but SOCK_STREAM
support will probably have to be removed for the sake of readability.

- Remeber to sync parent directories when moving a node

1.2 26-Aug-2010 manu

- open the file before doing fsync: glusterfs wants that.

- Automatically call fsync on close for files. If we just close, fsync
will come later and we will have to reopen

- Add a PND_DIRTY flag to keep track of files that really need a sync.
perfuse_node_fsync only calls the FUSE fsync method if there are data
to push.

- Add a PND_OPEN flag to keep track of open files. Checking non NULL
fh is not enough, as some filesystems will always set fh to 0.

- Add a sync diagnostic flag, to watch fsync and dirty flag activity.
Make the fh diagnostic flag more verbose

- Send the fh in setattr (it was hardcoded to 0)

I am now able to build libperfuse in a glusterfs mounted filesystem. Yeah!

Use reclaim2 to fix reclaim/lookup race conditions

The PUFFS reclaim operation had a race condition with lookups: we could
be asked to lookup a node, then to reclaim it before lookup completion.
At lookup completion, we would then create a leaked node.

Enter the PUFFS reclaim2 operation, which features a nlookup argument.
That let us count how many lookups are pending and avoid the above
described scenario. It also makes the codes simplier.

in perfused since FUSE filesystems are allowed to reorder requests.

The huge issue is in the asyncrhonous SETATTR sent by fsync. It is
followed by a syncrhnous FSYNC, so if the filesystem does not reorder
requests, once the FSYNC returns, we are confident the SETATTR is done.
But since FUSE can reorder, we need to implement sync in perfused.


1.21 14-Jul-2011 manu

FUSE struct dirent's off is not the offset in the buffer, it is an opaque
cookie that the filesystem passes us, and that we need to send back on
the next READDIR. Most filesystem just ignore the value and send the
next chunk of buffer, but not all of them. Fixing this allows glusterfs
distributed volume to work.


1.20 04-Jul-2011 manu

Add a flag to VOP_LISTEXTATTR(9) so that the vnode interface can tell the
filesystem in which format extended attribute shall be listed.

There are currently two formats:
- NUL-terminated strings, used for listxattr(2), this is the default.
- one byte length-pprefixed, non NUL-terminated strings, used for
extattr_list_file(2), which is obtanined by setting the
EXTATTR_LIST_PREFIXLEN flag to VOP_LISTEXTATTR(9)

This approach avoid the need for converting the list back and forth, except
in libperfuse, since FUSE uses NUL-terminated strings, and the kernel may
have requested EXTATTR_LIST_PREFIXLEN.

1.18 30-May-2011 manu

Use SOCK_SEQPACKET in perfuse if available. This fix file operations hangs
where the FUSE filesyste replied to an operation and got an ENOBUFS it did
not handle.

We now are also able to cleanly unmount


1.17 25-Apr-2011 manu

- Implement proper unprivilegied user permission verifications
Verification is now done in the lookup method, as it is the way to
go. Of course there are corner cases, such as the sticky bit which
need special handling in the remove method.

- Set full fsidx in vftstat method

- Do not pass O_APPEND to the filesystem. FUSE always sends the
write offset, so setting O_APPEND is useless. If the filesystem
uses it in an open(2) system call, it will even cause file
corruptions, since offsets given to pwrite(2) will be ignored.
This fix allows glusterfs to host a NetBSD ./build.sh -o build

- Do not use the FUSE access method, use getattr and check for
permission on our own. The problem is that a FUSE filesystem will
typically use the Linux-specific setfsuid() to perform access
control. If that is missing, any chack is likely to occur on
behalf of the user running the filesystem (typically root), causing
access method to return wrong information.

- When possible, avoid performing a getattr method call and use
cached value in puffs_node instead. We still retreive the latest
value by calling getattr when performing append write operation,
to minimize the chances that another writer appended since the
last time we did.

- Update puffs_node cached file size in write method

- Remove unused argument to perfuse_destroy_pn()

1.14 03-Oct-2010 manu

- Correctly handle rename whith overwritten destination
- Keep track of file name to avoid lookups when we can. This makes sure we
do not have two cookies for the same inode, a situation that cause wreak
havoc when we come to remove or rename a node.
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH at all, since we now track file names
- In open, queue requests after checking for access, as there is no merit
to queue a will-be-denied request while we can deny it immediatly
- request reclaim of removed nodes at inactive stage


1.13 29-Sep-2010 manu

= Open files =
- Restore open on our own in fsycn and readdir, as the node may not already
be open, and FUSE really wants it to be. No need to close immediatly, it
can be done at inactive time.

= Write operations =
- fix a nasty bug that corrupted files on write (written added twice)
- Keep track of file size in order to honour PUFFS_IO_APPEND

= many fixes in rename =
- handler overwritten nodes correctly
- wait for all operations on the node to drain before doing rename, as
filesystems may not cope with operations on a moving file.
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_INACT_N1 cannot be used from rename, we therefore
miss the inactive time for an overwritten node. This bounds us to give up
PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND.

= Removed files =
- forbid most operations on a removed node, return ENOENT
- setback PUFFS_SETBACK_NOREF_N1 at inactive stage to cause removed
file reclaim

= Misc =
- Update outdated ARGSUSED for lint
- Fix a memory leak (puffs_pn_remove instead of puffs_pn_put)
- Do not use PUFFS_FLAG_BUILDPATH except for debug output. It makes the
lookup code much simplier.


1.12 23-Sep-2010 manu

== file close operations ==
- use PUFFS_KFLAG_WTCACHE to puffs_init so that all writes are
immediatly send to the filesystem, and we do not have anymore write
after inactive. As a consequence, we can close files at inactive
stage, and there is not any concern left with files opened at
create time. We also do not have anymore to open ourselves in readdir and
fsync.

- Fsync on close (inactive stage). That makes sure we will not need to
do these operations once the file is closed (FUSE want an open file).
short sircuit the request that come after the close, bu not fsinc'ing
closed files,

- Use PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND to get less inactive calls

== Removed nodes ==
- more ENOENT retunred for operations on removed node (but there
are probably some still missing): getattr, ooen, setattr, fsync

- set PND_REMOVE before sending the UNLINK/RMDIR operations so that we avoid
races during UNLINK completion. Also set PND_REMOVED on node we overwirte
in rename

== Filehandle fixes ==
- queue open operation to avoid getting two fh for one file

- set FH in getattr, if the file is open

- Just requires a read FH for fsyncdir, as we always opendir in read
mode. Ok, this is misleading :-)

== Misc ==
- do not set FUSE_FATTR_ATIME_NOW in setattr, as we provide the time

- short circuit nilpotent operations in setattr

- add a filename diagnostic flag to dump file names


1.11 20-Sep-2010 manu

- performance improvement for read, readdir and write. Now we use
SOCK_DGRAM, we can send many pages at once without hitting any bug

- when creating a file, it is open for FUSE, but not for the kernel.
If the kernel does not do a subsequent open, we have a leak. We fight
against this by trying to close such file that the kernel left unopen
for some time.

- some code refactoring to make message exchange debug easier (more to come)


1.10 15-Sep-2010 manu

- Use SOCK_DGRAM instead of SOCK_STREAM, as the filesystem seems to
assume datagram semantics: when using SOCK_STREAM, if perfused sends
frames faster than the filesystem consumes them, it will grab multiple
frames at once and discard anything beyond the first one. For now the
code can work both with SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM, but SOCK_STREAM
support will probably have to be removed for the sake of readability.

- Remeber to sync parent directories when moving a node

- In debug output, display the requeue type (readdir, write, etc...)


1.9 09-Sep-2010 manu

- call FSYNCDIR for directories
- directories can be open R/W (for FSYNCDIR)
- do not skip calls to FSYNC or FSYNCDIR if the filesystem returned ENOSYS:
it may change its mind, and it may also actually do something when retunring
ENOSYS
- When FSYNC and FSYNCDIR return ENOSYS, do not report it to kernel (silent
failure)


1.8 06-Sep-2010 manu

More LP64 fixes


1.7 06-Sep-2010 manu

build fixes for LP64


1.6 05-Sep-2010 manu

- correctly set flags for CREATE

- after a node is deleted, some operations should return ENOENT, some
should be ignored. Fixed it for ACCESS, SETATTR and GETATTR. Other
operation may also need a fix.

- At reclaim time, there is no need to wait for READDIR and READ
completion, since the caller will never close a file before getting
readir() and read() replies. Waiting for WRITE completion is still
mandatory, but we must ensure that no queued WRITE is awaiting to
be scheduled. Once the queue is drained, we must check that the
reclaim operation was not canceled by a new file LOOKUP.

- At reclaim time, fixed a mix up between read and write fh to close

- Fixed permission checks for RENAME (it tested the node itself
instead of the source)

- When seting file mode, only MKNOD needs the filetype (S_* fields).
It is probably a bug to set it for other operations.


1.5 03-Sep-2010 manu

- Postpone file close at reclaim time, since NetBSD sends fsync and
setattr(mtime, ctime) after close, while FUSE expects the file
to be open for these operations

- remove unused argument to node_mk_common()

- remove requeued requests when they are executed, not when they
are tagged for schedule

- try to make filehandle management simplier, by keeping track of only
one read and one write filehandle (the latter being really read/write).

- when CREATE is not available, we use the MKNOD/OPEN path. Fix a
bug here where we opened the parent directory instead of the node:
add the missing lookup of the mknod'ed node.

- lookup file we just created: glusterfs does not really see them
otherwise.

- open file when doing setattr(mtime, ctime) on non open files, as
some filesystems seems to require it.

- Do not flush pagecache for removed nodes

- Keep track of read/write operations in progress, and at reclaim
time, make sure they are over before closing and forgeting the file.


1.4 01-Sep-2010 manu

Build fixes for LP64


1.3 27-Aug-2010 manu

- if perfused is not already started (cannot connect to /dev/fuse),
FUSE filesystems will attempt to start it on their own, and will
communicate using a socketpair

- do not advertise NULL file handle as being valid when sending themback to the FUSE filesystem.

- unmount if we cannot talk to the FUSE process anymore

- set calling process gid properly

- debug message cleanup


1.2 26-Aug-2010 manu

- open the file before doing fsync: glusterfs wants that.

- Automatically call fsync on close for files. If we just close, fsync
will come later and we will have to reopen

- Add a PND_DIRTY flag to keep track of files that really need a sync.
perfuse_node_fsync only calls the FUSE fsync method if there are data
to push.

- Add a PND_OPEN flag to keep track of open files. Checking non NULL
fh is not enough, as some filesystems will always set fh to 0.

- Add a sync diagnostic flag, to watch fsync and dirty flag activity.
Make the fh diagnostic flag more verbose

- Send the fh in setattr (it was hardcoded to 0)

I am now able to build libperfuse in a glusterfs mounted filesystem. Yeah!


1.1 25-Aug-2010 manu

libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or

branches: 1.19.2;
- Fix same vnodes associated with multiple cookies
The scheme used to retreive known nodes on lookup was flawed, as it only
used parent and name. This produced a different cookie for the same file
if it was renamed, when looking up ../ or when dealing with multiple files
associated with the same name through link(2).

We therefore abandon the use of node name and introduce hashed lists of
inodes. This causes a huge rewrite of reclaim code, which do not attempt
to keep parents allocated until all their children are reclaimed

- Fix race conditions in reclaim
There are a few situations where we issue multiple FUSE operations for
a PUFFS operation. On reclaim, we therefore have to wait for all FUSE
operation to complete, not just the current exchanges. We do this by
introducing node reference count with node_ref() and node_rele().

- Detect data loss caused by FAF
VOP_PUTPAGES causes FAF writes where the kernel does not check the
operation result. At least issue a warning on error.

- Enjoy FAF shortcut on setattr
No need to wait for the result if the kernel does not want it. There is
however an exception for setattr that touch the size, we need to wait
for completion because we have other operations queued for after the
resize.

- Fix fchmod() on write-open file
fchmod() on a node open with write privilege will send setattr with both mode and size set. This confuses some FUSE filesystem. Therefore we send two FUSE operations, one for mode, and one for size.

- Remove node TTL handling for netbsd-5 for simplicity sake. The code
still builds on netbsd-5 but does not have the node TTL feature anymore.
It works fine with kernel support on netbsd-6.

- Remove node_mk_common_final in libperfuse. It used to set uid/gid for
a newly created vnode but has been made redundant along time ago since
uid and gid are properly set in FUSE header.
- In libperfuse, check for corner case where opc = 0 on INACTIVE and RECLAIM (how is it possible? Check for it to avoid a crash anyway)
- In libperfuse, make sure we unlimit RLIMIT_AS and RLIMIT_DATA so that
we do notrun out of memory because the kernel is lazy at reclaiming vnodes.

The kernel can lookup the same node multiple time and will reclaim as
many times it looked up. All reclaims but the last one must be ignored,
otherwise we discard a node which will still get operations. We therefore
have to keep track of lookup/reclaim count and hnour reclaims only when

closed files,

- Use PUFFS_KFLAG_IAONDEMAND to get less inactive calls

== Removed nodes ==
- more ENOENT retunred for operations on removed node (but there
are probably some still missing): getattr, ooen, setattr, fsync

- set PND_REMOVE before sending the UNLINK/RMDIR operations so that we avoid
races during UNLINK completion. Also set PND_REMOVED on node we overwirte
in rename

== Filehandle fixes ==
- queue open operation to avoid getting two fh for one file

- set FH in getattr, if the file is open

- Just requires a read FH for fsyncdir, as we always opendir in read
mode. Ok, this is misleading :-)

== Misc ==
- do not set FUSE_FATTR_ATIME_NOW in setattr, as we provide the time

- short circuit nilpotent operations in setattr

- add a filename diagnostic flag to dump file names


1.5 20-Sep-2010 manu

- performance improvement for read, readdir and write. Now we use
SOCK_DGRAM, we can send many pages at once without hitting any bug

- when creating a file, it is open for FUSE, but not for the kernel.
If the kernel does not do a subsequent open, we have a leak. We fight
against this by trying to close such file that the kernel left unopen
for some time.

- some code refactoring to make message exchange debug easier (more to come)


1.4 03-Sep-2010 manu

- Postpone file close at reclaim time, since NetBSD sends fsync and
setattr(mtime, ctime) after close, while FUSE expects the file
to be open for these operations

- remove unused argument to node_mk_common()

- remove requeued requests when they are executed, not when they
are tagged for schedule

- try to make filehandle management simplier, by keeping track of only
one read and one write filehandle (the latter being really read/write).

- when CREATE is not available, we use the MKNOD/OPEN path. Fix a
bug here where we opened the parent directory instead of the node:
add the missing lookup of the mknod'ed node.

- lookup file we just created: glusterfs does not really see them
otherwise.

- open file when doing setattr(mtime, ctime) on non open files, as
some filesystems seems to require it.

- Do not flush pagecache for removed nodes

- Keep track of read/write operations in progress, and at reclaim
time, make sure they are over before closing and forgeting the file.


1.3 01-Sep-2010 manu

Build fixes for LP64


1.2 26-Aug-2010 manu

- open the file before doing fsync: glusterfs wants that.

- Automatically call fsync on close for files. If we just close, fsync
will come later and we will have to reopen

- Add a PND_DIRTY flag to keep track of files that really need a sync.
perfuse_node_fsync only calls the FUSE fsync method if there are data
to push.

- Add a PND_OPEN flag to keep track of open files. Checking non NULL
fh is not enough, as some filesystems will always set fh to 0.

- Add a sync diagnostic flag, to watch fsync and dirty flag activity.
Make the fh diagnostic flag more verbose

- Send the fh in setattr (it was hardcoded to 0)

I am now able to build libperfuse in a glusterfs mounted filesystem. Yeah!


1.1 25-Aug-2010 manu

libperfuse(3) is a PUFFS relay to FUSE. In order to use it,
FUSE filesystem must be patched to #include <perfuse.h> in the source
files that open /dev/fuse and perform the mount(2) system call. The
FUSE filesystem must be linked with -lperfuse.

libperfuse(3) implements the FUSE kernel interface, on which libfuse or
any FUSE filesystem that opens /dev/fuse directly can be used.

For now, an external daemon called perfused(8) is used. This may change
in the future.
