Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] fuse: add FUSE_OPEN_ATOMIC
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 20:04:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028200459.2922951-2-jamz@amazon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028200459.2922951-1-jamz@amazon.com>
Add FUSE_OPEN_ATOMIC, which looks up a name, creates it for O_CREAT, and
opens it in one request, so that ->atomic_open() needs no FUSE_LOOKUP
before FUSE_OPEN or FUSE_CREATE. After a -ENOSYS reply the kernel sends
FUSE_LOOKUP, as it does for FUSE_CREATE.
The request carries fuse_create_in and the name. The server replies with
the entry and, if it opened the file, fuse_open_out:
- an existing regular file: the server opens it;
- a new name with O_CREAT: the server creates and opens it, and sets
FOPEN_CREATED;
- any other file: the server returns the entry only, and the VFS opens
it;
- a missing name without O_CREAT: the server returns a zero nodeid,
cached like a negative LOOKUP.
The VFS checks the open after the reply, as for other ->atomic_open()
filesystems, and the kernel releases the file if the check fails.
FMODE_CREATED is set only when the server reports FOPEN_CREATED.
The request carries the open flags without O_TRUNC: the VFS truncates
the opened file with SETATTR after its checks. With FUSE_ATOMIC_O_TRUNC,
where FUSE_OPEN truncates, an O_TRUNC open keeps FUSE_LOOKUP.
