146 * Request methods and replies
150 * Low level filesystem operations
152 * Most of the methods (with the exception of init and destroy)
153 * receive a request handle (fuse_req_t) as their first argument.
154 * This handle must be passed to one of the specified reply functions.
156 * This may be done inside the method invocation, or after the call
157 * has returned. The request handle is valid until one of the reply
158 * functions is called.
160 * Other pointer arguments (name, fuse_file_info, etc) are not valid
161 * after the call has returned, so if they are needed later, their
162 * contents have to be copied.
164 * In general, all methods are expected to perform any necessary
165 * permission checking. However, a filesystem may delegate this task
166 * to the kernel by passing the `default_permissions` mount option to
167 * `fuse_session_new()`. In this case, methods will only be called if
168 * the kernel's permission check has succeeded.
170 * The filesystem sometimes needs to handle a return value of -ENOENT
171 * from the reply function, which means, that the request was
172 * interrupted, and the reply discarded. For example if
173 * fuse_reply_open() return -ENOENT means, that the release method for
174 * this file will not be called.
176 struct fuse_lowlevel_ops {
178 * Initialize filesystem
180 * This function is called when libfuse establishes
181 * communication with the FUSE kernel module. The file system
182 * should use this module to inspect and/or modify the
183 * connection parameters provided in the `conn` structure.
185 * Note that some parameters may be overwritten by options
186 * passed to fuse_session_new() which take precedence over the
187 * values set in this handler.

191 * @param userdata the user data passed to fuse_session_new()
193 void (*init)(void *userdata, struct fuse_conn_info *conn);
196 * Clean up filesystem.
198 * Called on filesystem exit. When this method is called, the
199 * connection to the kernel may be gone already, so that eg. calls
200 * to fuse_lowlevel_notify_* will fail.
202 * There's no reply to this function
204 * @param userdata the user data passed to fuse_session_new()
206 void (*destroy)(void *userdata);
209 * Look up a directory entry by name and get its attributes.
211 * Valid replies:
212 * fuse_reply_entry
213 * fuse_reply_err
215 * @param req request handle
216 * @param parent inode number of the parent directory
217 * @param name the name to look up
219 void (*lookup)(fuse_req_t req, fuse_ino_t parent, const char *name);
222 * Forget about an inode
224 * This function is called when the kernel removes an inode
225 * from its internal caches.
227 * The inode's lookup count increases by one for every call to
228 * fuse_reply_entry and fuse_reply_create. The nlookup parameter
229 * indicates by how much the lookup count should be decreased.
231 * Inodes with a non-zero lookup count may receive request from
232 * the kernel even after calls to unlink, rmdir or (when
233 * overwriting an existing file) rename. Filesystems must handle
234 * such requests properly and it is recommended to defer removal
235 * of the inode until the lookup count reaches zero. Calls to
236 * unlink, rmdir or rename will be followed closely by forget
237 * unless the file or directory is open, in which case the
238 * kernel issues forget only after the release or releasedir
239 * calls.
241 * Note that if a file system will be exported over NFS the
242 * inodes lifetime must extend even beyond forget. See the
243 * generation field in struct fuse_entry_param above.
245 * On unmount the lookup count for all inodes implicitly drops
246 * to zero. It is not guaranteed that the file system will
247 * receive corresponding forget messages for the affected
248 * inodes.

262 * If writeback caching is enabled, the kernel may have a
263 * better idea of a file's length than the FUSE file system
264 * (eg if there has been a write that extended the file size,
265 * but that has not yet been passed to the filesystem.n
267 * In this case, the st_size value provided by the file system
268 * will be ignored.

281 * Set file attributes
283 * In the 'attr' argument only members indicated by the 'to_set'
284 * bitmask contain valid values. Other members contain undefined
285 * values.
287 * Unless FUSE_CAP_HANDLE_KILLPRIV is disabled, this method is
288 * expected to reset the setuid and setgid bits if the file
289 * size or owner is being changed.
291 * If the setattr was invoked from the ftruncate() system call
292 * under Linux kernel versions 2.6.15 or later, the fi->fh will
293 * contain the value set by the open method or will be undefined
294 * if the open method didn't set any value. Otherwise (not
295 * ftruncate call, or kernel version earlier than 2.6.15) the fi

411 * system is expected to postpone any removal of the inode
412 * until the lookup count reaches zero (see description of the

415 * If this request is answered with an error code of ENOSYS, this is
416 * treated as a permanent failure with error code EINVAL, i.e. all
417 * future bmap requests will fail with EINVAL without being
418 * send to the filesystem process.
420 * *flags* may be `RENAME_EXCHANGE` or `RENAME_NOREPLACE`. If
421 * RENAME_NOREPLACE is specified, the filesystem must not
422 * overwrite *newname* if it exists and return an error

456 * Open a file
458 * Open flags are available in fi->flags. The following rules
459 * apply.
461 * - Creation (O_CREAT, O_EXCL, O_NOCTTY) flags will be
462 * filtered out / handled by the kernel.
464 * - Access modes (O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR) should be used
465 * by the filesystem to check if the operation is
466 * permitted. If the ``-o default_permissions`` mount
467 * option is given, this check is already done by the
468 * kernel before calling open() and may thus be omitted by
469 * the filesystem.
471 * - When writeback caching is enabled, the kernel may send
472 * read requests even for files opened with O_WRONLY. The
473 * filesystem should be prepared to handle this.
475 * - When writeback caching is disabled, the filesystem is
476 * expected to properly handle the O_APPEND flag and ensure
477 * that each write is appending to the end of the file.
479 * - When writeback caching is enabled, the kernel will
480 * handle O_APPEND. However, unless all changes to the file
481 * come through the kernel this will not work reliably. The
482 * filesystem should thus either ignore the O_APPEND flag
483 * (and let the kernel handle it), or return an error
484 * (indicating that reliably O_APPEND is not available).
486 * Filesystem may store an arbitrary file handle (pointer,
487 * index, etc) in fi->fh, and use this in other all other file
488 * operations (read, write, flush, release, fsync).
490 * Filesystem may also implement stateless file I/O and not store
491 * anything in fi->fh.
493 * There are also some flags (direct_io, keep_cache) which the
494 * filesystem may set in fi, to change the way the file is opened.
495 * See fuse_file_info structure in <fuse_common.h> for more details.
497 * If this request is answered with an error code of ENOSYS
498 * and FUSE_CAP_NO_OPEN_SUPPORT is set in
499 * `fuse_conn_info.capable`, this is treated as success and
500 * future calls to open and release will also succeed without being
501 * sent to the filesystem process.

514 * Read data
516 * Read should send exactly the number of bytes requested except
517 * on EOF or error, otherwise the rest of the data will be
518 * substituted with zeroes. An exception to this is when the file
519 * has been opened in 'direct_io' mode, in which case the return
520 * value of the read system call will reflect the return value of
521 * this operation.

545 * except on error. An exception to this is when the file has
546 * been opened in 'direct_io' mode, in which case the return value
547 * of the write system call will reflect the return value of this

550 * Unless FUSE_CAP_HANDLE_KILLPRIV is disabled, this method is

568 off_t off, struct fuse_file_info *fi);
571 * Flush method
573 * This is called on each close() of the opened file.
575 * Since file descriptors can be duplicated (dup, dup2, fork), for
576 * one open call there may be many flush calls.
578 * Filesystems shouldn't assume that flush will always be called
579 * after some writes, or that if will be called at all.
581 * fi->fh will contain the value set by the open method, or will
582 * be undefined if the open method didn't set any value.
584 * NOTE: the name of the method is misleading, since (unlike
585 * fsync) the filesystem is not forced to flush pending writes.
586 * One reason to flush data is if the filesystem wants to return
587 * write errors during close. However, such use is non-portable
588 * because POSIX does not require [close] to wait for delayed I/O to
589 * complete.
591 * If the filesystem supports file locking operations (setlk,
592 * getlk) it should remove all locks belonging to 'fi->owner'.
594 * If this request is answered with an error code of ENOSYS,
595 * this is treated as success and future calls to flush() will
596 * succeed automatically without being send to the filesystem
597 * process.

694 * Returning a directory entry from readdir() does not affect

697 * If off_t is non-zero, then it will correspond to one of the off_t
698 * values that was previously returned by readdir() for the same
699 * directory handle. In this case, readdir() should skip over entries
700 * coming before the position defined by the off_t value. If entries

1845 * Enter a single threaded, blocking event loop.
1847 * When the event loop terminates because the connection to the FUSE

1895 * Ensure that file system is unmounted.
1897 * In regular operation, the file system is typically unmounted by the
1898 * user calling umount(8) or fusermount(1), which then terminates the
1899 * FUSE session loop. However, the session loop may also terminate as
1900 * a result of an explicit call to fuse_session_exit() (e.g. by a
1901 * signal handler installed by fuse_set_signal_handler()). In this
1902 * case the filesystem remains mounted, but any attempt to access it
1903 * will block (while the filesystem process is still running) or give
1904 * an ESHUTDOWN error (after the filesystem process has terminated).
1906 * If the communication channel with the FUSE kernel module is still
1907 * open (i.e., if the session loop was terminated by an explicit call
1908 * to fuse_session_exit()), this function will close it and unmount
1909 * the filesystem. If the communication channel has been closed by the
1910 * kernel, this method will do (almost) nothing.
1912 * NOTE: The above semantics mean that if the connection to the kernel
1913 * is terminated via the ``/sys/fs/fuse/connections/NNN/abort`` file,
1914 * this method will *not* unmount the filesystem.
