Subject: [PATCH v2 05/21] fuse: prepare for long lived reference on backing file
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 17:39:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260516004004.1455526-6-joannelkoong@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260516004004.1455526-1-joannelkoong@gmail.com>
From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>
Currently backing file is attached to fuse inode on the first
passthrough open of the inode and detached on last passthrough close.
In preparation for attaching a backing file to inode with no open file,
allow attaching a single long lived reference on fuse inode backing file
that will be used for passthrough of inode operations and detached on
fuse inode evict.
