[PATCH RESEND V11 4/7] fuse: Passthrough initialization and release

From: Alessio Balsini
Date: Mon Jan 18 2021 - 14:37:07 EST


Implement the FUSE passthrough ioctl() that associates the lower
(passthrough) file system file with the fuse_file.

The file descriptor passed to the ioctl() by the FUSE daemon is used to
access the relative file pointer, that will be copied to the fuse_file
data structure to consolidate the link between the FUSE and lower file
system.

To enable the passthrough mode, user space triggers the
FUSE_DEV_IOC_PASSTHROUGH_OPEN ioctl() and, if the call succeeds,
receives back an identifier that will be used at open/create response
time in the fuse_open_out field to associate the FUSE file to the lower
file system file.
The value returned by the ioctl() to user space can be:
- > 0: success, the identifier can be used as part of an open/create
reply.
- < 0: an error occurred.
The value 0 has been left unused for backward compatibility: the
fuse_open_out field that is used to pass the passthrough_fh back to the
kernel uses the same bits that were previously as struct padding,
zero-initialized in the common libfuse implementation. Removing the 0
value fixes the ambiguity between the case in which 0 corresponds to a
real passthrough_fh or a missing implementation, simplifying the user
space implementation.

For the passthrough mode to be successfully activated, the lower file
system file must implement both read_iter and write_iter file
operations. This extra check avoids special pseudo files to be targeted
for this feature.
Passthrough comes with another limitation: if a FUSE file systems
enables passthrough, this feature is no more available to other FUSE
file systems stacked on top of it. This check is only performed when
FUSE passthrough is requested for a specific file and would simply
prevent the use of FUSE passthrough for that file, not limiting other
file operations.
