[PATCH RESEND V12 8/8] fuse: Introduce passthrough for mmap

From: Alessio Balsini
Date: Tue Jan 26 2021 - 02:16:39 EST


Enabling FUSE passthrough for mmap-ed operations not only affects
performance, but has also been shown as mandatory for the correct
functioning of FUSE passthrough.
yanwu noticed [1] that a FUSE file with passthrough enabled may suffer
data inconsistencies if the same file is also accessed with mmap. What
happens is that read/write operations are directly applied to the lower
file system (and its cache), while mmap-ed operations are affecting the
FUSE cache.

Extend the FUSE passthrough implementation to also handle memory-mapped
FUSE file, to both fix the cache inconsistencies and extend the
passthrough performance benefits to mmap-ed operations.
