Subject: [PATCH v1 06/17] fuse: implement passthrough for getattr/statx
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 15:16:26 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420221637.2631478-7-joannelkoong@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420221637.2631478-1-joannelkoong@gmail.com>
From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>
Call vfs_getattr() on backing inode to respond to a user statx(2)
request and update the fuse inode attributes with the response.
For now, we assume that calling vfs_getattr() on backing inode is cheap,
so we never use cached attributed and always update fuse inode
attributes from backing attributes in fuse_permission() and
fuse_update_attributes().
