Thanks Alan! I've been watching this work with significant interest[*] for quite a while, and am glad this is finally landing.

Thanks again,

Ravi (rpokala@)

[*] or as much interest as anyone who knows ~nothing about filesystems can muster ;-)

>   This commit imports the new fusefs driver. It raises the protocol level
>   from 7.8 to 7.23, fixes many bugs, adds a test suite for the driver, and
>   adds many new features. New features include:
>   
>   * Optional kernel-side permissions checks (-o default_permissions)
>   * Implement VOP_MKNOD, VOP_BMAP, and VOP_ADVLOCK
>   * Allow interrupting FUSE operations
>   * Support named pipes and unix-domain sockets in fusefs file systems
>   * Forward UTIME_NOW during utimensat(2) to the daemon
>   * kqueue support for /dev/fuse
>   * Allow updating mounts with "mount -u"
>   * Allow exporting fusefs file systems over NFS
>   * Server-initiated invalidation of the name cache or data cache
>   * Respect RLIMIT_FSIZE
>   * Try to support servers as old as protocol 7.4
>   
>   Performance enhancements include:
>   
>   * Implement FUSE's FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE and FUSE_ASYNC_READ flags
>   * Cache file attributes
>   * Cache lookup entries, both positive and negative
>   * Server-selectable cache modes: writethrough, writeback, or uncached
>   * Write clustering
>   * Readahead
>   * Use counter(9) for statistical reporting
