Subject: [PATCH v12 0/2] fuse: add kernel-enforced request timeout option
Date: Wed, 22 Jan 2025 13:55:26 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250122215528.1270478-1-joannelkoong@gmail.com> (raw)

There are situations where fuse servers can become unresponsive or
stuck, for example if the server is in a deadlock. Currently, there's
no good way to detect if a server is stuck and needs to be killed
manually.

This patchset adds a timeout option where if the server does not reply to a
request by the time the timeout elapses, the connection will be aborted.
This patchset also adds two dynamically configurable fuse sysctls
"default_request_timeout" and "max_request_timeout" for controlling/enforcing
timeout behavior system-wide.

Existing systems running fuse servers will not be affected unless they
explicitly opt into the timeout.

* Pass request timeout through init instead of mount option (Miklos)
* Change sysctl upper bound to max u16 val
* Rebase on top of for-next, need to incorporate io-uring timeouts

Changes from v9 -> v10:
* Use delayed workqueues instead of timers (Sergey and Jeff)
* Change granularity to seconds instead of minutes (Sergey and Jeff)
* Use time_after() api for checking jiffies expiration (Sergey)
* Change timer check to run every 15 secs instead of every min

Changes from v6 -> v7:
- Make timer per-connection instead of per-request (Miklos)
- Make default granularity of time minutes instead of seconds
