2009-09-11  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.8.1

2009-08-25  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix missing versioned symbol fuse_get_context@FUSE_2.2

2009-08-18  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.8.0

2009-08-18  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add missing fuse_session_data to versionscript

	* Make sure all global symbols are prefixed with "fuse_" or "cuse_"

2009-07-16  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Clarify how the protocol version should be negotiated between
	kernel and userspace.  Notably libfuse didn't correctly handle the
	case when the supported major versions didn't match

	* Add missing pthread link for libulockmgr.  Patch by  Petr Salinger

2009-07-02  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* The context is extended with a 'umask' field.  The umask is sent
	for mknod, mkdir and create requests by linux kernel version
	2.6.31 or later, otherwise the umask is set to zero.  Also
	introduce a new feature flag: FUSE_CAP_DONT_MASK.  If the kernel
	supports this feature, then this flag will be set in conn->capable
	in the ->init() method.  If the filesystem sets this flag in in
	conn->want, then the create modes will not be masked.

	* Add low level interfaces for lookup cache and attribute
	invalidation.  This feature is available in linux kernels 2.6.31
	or later.  Patch by John Muir

	* Kernel interface version is now 7.12

	* fusermount: Do not silently ignore command line arguments.
	Patch by Sebastian Harl

2009-06-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.8.0-pre3

2009-06-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add fuse_getgroups (high level lib) and fuse_req_getgroups (low
	level lib) functions to query the supplementary group IDs for the
	current request.  Currently this is implemented on Linux by
	reading from the /proc filesystem.

2009-06-18  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add "noforget" option to high level lib to prevent ESTALE errors
	on NFS exported filesystems.  This result in paths being cached
	forever, resulting in ever growing memory usage.  Use with care.

	* Add "no_remote_lock" option to disable remote file locking even
	if the filesystem implements it.  With this option locking
	primitives (flock, lockf, fcntl(F_SETLK)) will still work, but
	will ignore remotely locked files.

	* CUSE patches from Tejun Heo:

	* Unrestricted ioctl support left some debris.  Clean them up:
	  o No reason to pass around pointer to flags.  Pass flags directly.
	  o Clean up comment and prototype parameter names.
	  o fuse_lib_ioctl() didn't reply when get_path() failed.  Fix it.
	  o Remove unused variables {in|out}_iov from fuse_lib_ioctl().

	* Add fuse_reply_ioctl_iov()

	* Move fuse_session, fuse_req and fuse_ll definitions to fuse_i.h
	and make send_reply_iov() and fuse_setup_common() global (also in
	fuse_i.h).  These will be used by CUSE support.

	* Restructure fuse_ll_process()

	* Implement libfuse side of CUSE support.  CUSE uses subset of FUSE
	operations as dir operations don't make sense for CUSE where one
	instance implements single character device.

	CUSE support comes with its own cuse_lowevel_ops and related
	initialization and helper functions.  Except for initialization, it
	usage is basically identical to FUSE.

	This patch also adds example/cusexmp.c which can create a character
	device with name and device number specified on command line.  The
	created device itself is pretty boring.  It's a bit bucket supporting
	read, write and access via ioctl.

2009-06-16  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add missing fuse_reply_bmap to versionscript.  Debian
	Bug#531329.  Reported by Goswin Brederlow

2009-05-27  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Don't call forget_node() if the lookup was negative and write()
	for the reply returned ENOENT.  Reported by John Haxby

2009-05-25  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add FUSE_CAP_EXPORT_SUPPORT to fuse_common.h

	* Fix 'make install-strip'.  Reported by Dominick Layfield

2009-01-05  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.8.0-pre2

2008-12-08  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Implement poll support.  Patch by Tejun Heo

	* Add missing setattr flags to <fuse_lowlevel.h>.

	* Only pass valid flags to ->setattr().

2008-12-05  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Implement ioctl support.  On high level interface only
	"restricted" ioctls are supported (which are defined with the
	_IO(), _IOR(), _IOW() or _IOWR() macros).  Unrestricted ioctls
	will only be allwed to CUSE (Character Device in Userspace)
	servers.  Patch by Tejun Heo

2008-11-28  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* If open sets fi->nonseekable, libfuse will tell the kernel that
	the file is not seekable.  Patch by Tejun Heo

2008-11-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lowlevel lib: fix deadlock if fuse_reply_* is called from the

	* Fix handling of (no)suid and (no)dev options if filesystem is
	mounted from /etc/fstab or via mount(8).  Reported by Jan Ondrej.

	* Skip calling mount(8) if /etc/mtab doesn't exist or if it's on a
	read-only filesystem.  This works around issues with certain mount
	implementations.  Reported by Szabolcs Szakacsits.

2008-06-16  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Remove fuse kernel module sources.  Linux 2.6.27 will support
	NFS exporting.

2008-06-10  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix theoretical infinite loops in libfuse.  Reported by Szabolcs
	Szakacsits

	* Fix mounting over symlink.  Reported by Szabolcs Szakacsits

2008-05-09  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Don't allow bigger than 4kB writes by default on 2.6.26 and
	later kernels, so that filesystems not expecting this are not
	broken on a kernel upgrade.  Provide a 'big_writes' mount option
	to enable this feature.  In future API revisions this may become
	the default.

2008-04-09  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Update warning message for missing newline at end of fuse.conf

	* Update debug message for successful operation to not include the
	string "error:"

2008-03-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix missing pthread_mutex_destroy in error path of
	fuse_lib_opendir().  Patch by Szabolcs Szakacsits

2008-03-07  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add queuing on contention to per-node lock algorithm, to avoid
	starvation.

	* Only enable cancelation when reading a request, otherwise
	cancellation could happen with a mutex held, which could hang the
	process on umount

2008-02-08  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Block SIGCHLD when executing mount and umount

	* fusexmp_fh: avoid unnecessary seeking in readdir

	* Update kernel interface to 7.9:

	* Support receiving file handle from kernel in GETATTR request

	* Allow operations with a NULL path argument, if the filesystem
	supports it

	* Add support atomic open(O_TRUNC)

	* Support the st_blksize field in struct stat

	* If the "FUSE_THREAD_STACK" environment is set, initialize the
	stack size of threads by this value.  Patch by Florin Malita

	* Add per-node locking, instead of a global tree lock to protect
	the path from changing during operations.  Original patch by
	Rodrigo Castro

2008-02-03  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib/mount_bsd.c:
	- string formatting fixes
	- exit if mounting has failed
	  (in FreeBSD a mount failure is not critical per se, as the daemon
	  still could be mounted externally, but waiting for such an event
	  is more confusing than fruitful)
	- ditch the kvm(8) stuff and simply use forced unmount which just
	  won't block
	- prettify option specifications
	- add "-onosync_unmount" kernel option

2008-01-07  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib/mount_bsd.c:
	- refine device closing in a race-free way
	- add support for "-osubtype" on FreeBSD

	* makeconf.sh: make it work under FreeBSD

2008-01-03  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib/mount_bsd.c: close device before unmount
	(cf. lib/mount.c rev. 1.43) and fix some warnings 

2007-12-23  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix './configure --disable-static'.  Patch from Ismail Dönmez

2007-12-17  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.7.2

2007-12-12  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix kernel module compile for 2.6.24

	* Invalidate attributes of parent directory after create(), since
	the modification time changes.  Invalidate attributes on rename,
	since some filesystems may update st_ctime.  Reported by Szabolcs
	Szakacsits

	* Fix NFS exporting to handle 64bit node IDs

	* Disable old symbol versions if __UCLIBC__ is defined.  If a
	symbol in a library has multiple versions, the runtime linker in
	uClibc seems to randomly choose between them.

	* Remove erroneous 'fuse_opt_insert_arg@FUSE_2_5' from
	fuse_version_script.  fuse_opt_free_args() was added in fuse-2.6.

	* Close fuse device file descriptor before calling umount(),
	preventing a deadlock when umount is synchronous.  Reported by
	Szabolcs Szakacsits

2007-11-12  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* 'fusermount -u' did not umount the filesystem if /etc/mtab was a
	symlink.  This bug was introduced in 2.7.1 by "Don't call

	parent id

2007-05-25  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: don't create new thread for each FORGET request.  FORGET
	messages sometimes caused so many threads to be created, that
	process virtual memory space ran out.  Reported by Chris AtLee

2007-05-24  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: fix memory leak on thread creation failure in multithreaded
	event loop.  Found by Chris AtLee

2007-05-23  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lowlevel lib: add fuse_reply_iov function, which is similar to
	fuse_reply_buf, but accepts a vector of buffers.  Patch by Roger
	Willcocks

2007-05-21  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix Oops or error if a regular file is created with mknod(2) on
	a fuse filesystem.  Kernels 2.6.18 onward are affected.  Thanks to
	J. Cameijo Cerdeira for the report

2007-05-11  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	possible

	* Clean up init script, make it LSB compliant

2007-04-26  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* In multithreaded loop, use a semaphore instead of SIGHUP to wake
	up the main thread on umount.  This is more elegant, and works
	even if signals are blocked.

2007-04-25  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Improve mounting support in libfuse:
	 - check non-empty mountpoint
	 - only fall back to fusermount when necessary

2007-04-23  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

2007-02-04  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Compile fuseblk for kernels which don't have an option to turn
	off the block layer (CONFIG_BLOCK).  Reported by Szakacsits
	Szabolcs

2007-02-03  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	mutexes via <linux/mutex.h> but no i_mutex.  Reported by Tomasz
	Mateja

2007-01-28  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: fix BUG in control filesystem if it is umounted and
	mounted again, while some fuse filesystems are present.
	Bugreport from Florent Mertens

	Lindman

2006-12-10  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* mount.fuse: add "setuid=USER" option which does a "su - USER"
	for the filesystem

	* fusermount: use "/bin/mount -f" to add entry to /etc/mtab, and
	"/bin/umount" to remove entry from /etc/mtab.  This gets rid of
	the ugly code dealing with mtab, as well as a possible race
	between fusermount and mount trying to modify /etc/mtab at the
	same time

	* Fix "buffer size too small: 4" warning for users of the
	fuse_loop_mt_proc() function.

2006-11-29  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* fusermount: Print a more helpful message in case the kernel
	doesn't support the 'fuseblk' filesystem type.  This has been
	biting ntfs-3g users.  Reported by Yura Pakhuchiy

	* kernel: fix build problem for "make -C ...".  Reported by
	Stephen Bryant

2006-11-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix bug in certain error paths of lookup routines.  The request
	object was reused for sending FORGET, which is illegal.  This bug
	could cause an Oops in linux-2.6.18 or in fuse-2.6.0, and might
	silently corrupt memory in earlier versions.  Report and test
	program by Russ Cox

2006-11-11  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Print an error if an incompatible kernel interface version is
	detected in INIT.  This will only show if filesystem is started

	* kernel: Fix compilation on patched 2.6.18 (fc6) and 2.6.19.
	Report from David Shaw

	* lib: Fix lost error on renaming a file. Report from David Shaw

	* lib: Fix lost error on hiding open files (renaming to
	.fuse_hiddenXXXX)

	* kernel: Fix a rare hang on SMP/32bit on heavy filesystem
	activity.  The cause of the bug was that some calls to
	i_size_write() were not protected by a lock, and hence
	i_size_seqcount could become corrupted.  This caused subsequent
	calls to i_size_read() to spin forever.  This is a long standing
	bug was probably introduced in version 2.2, and thought to be
	related to NFS exporting (it's not).  It was reported by various
	people, but Dana Henriksen has finally helped me to track it down,
	so big thanks to him

	* kernel: Protect against truncation of a swapfile

2006-10-10  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: Check for signature of super_operations->umount_begin().
	Ubuntu kernel 2.6.17 seems to use the new signature found in
	2.6.18.  Thanks to Florent Mertens for the report

2006-10-08  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Make sure inode numers wrap around at 2^32.  This is needed on
	dual 64bit/32bit architectures, because 32bit applications using
	the non-largefile interface would otherwise break (EOVERFLOW error
	would be returned by the stat() system call family)

	* ulockmgr: handle the case, when a locking operation fails
	because no more file desctriptors are available in
	ulockmgr_server.  Also work around a Linux kernel bug (known to
	exist for all Linux kernel versions <= 2.6.18) which may cause
	sent file descriptors to be lost in the above case

	* ulockmgr: optimize file descriptor use

	* restore needed cpp flags to util/Makefile.am

	* Install udev rules as 99-fuse.rules instead of 60-fuse.rules

	* Minor clean up of udev rules

	* Add a synchronous DESTROY message to kernel interface.  This is
	invoked from umount, when the final instance of the filesystem is
	released.  It is only sent for filesystems mounted with the
	'blkdev' option for security reasons.

	* If the DESTROY message is received, call the filesystem's
	->destroy() method.  In this case it's not called from session
	destruction as it would be otherwise.

2006-10-01  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.6.0-rc2

2006-10-01  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add support for FLUSH+RELEASE operation for FreeBSD.  Original
	patch by Csaba Henk

	* Add init script to insert fuse module and mount the control
	filesystem.  The script is installed as /etc/init.d/fuse and on
	debian based systems (where update-rc.d is available) symlinks
	from /etc/rc*.d/ are also installed.

	* Include '#define FUSE_USE_VERSION=XX' into examples so they
	become more self contained.

2006-09-30  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* API changes:

	* Move lock_owner from a separate argument into fuse_file_info

	* Add a flag to fuse_file_info indicating (1) a highlevel lock
	operation (unlock all) was initiated by a flush, (2) a lowlevel
	release operation should perform a flush as well.

	* fusermount: revert modprobe change (2006-08-18) since it
	doesn't work reliably with udev

	* Add support for block device backed filesystems.  This mode is
	selected with the 'blkdev' option, which is privileged.

	* Add support for the bmap (FIBMAP ioctl) operation on block
	device backed filesystems.  This allows swapon and lilo to work on
	such filesystems.

	* kernel changes:

	* Drop support for kernels earlier than 2.6.9.  Kernel module from
	previous (2.5.x) release can be used with library from this
	release

	* In fuse_dentry_revalidate() use dget_parent() instead of
	dereferencing d_parent, since there's no protection against parent
	changing and going away

	* Protect nlookup from concurrent updates

	* In lookup if a directory alias exists but is unused,
	then get rid of it, otherwise return -EBUSY.

	* In mkdir if a directory alias exists, return success, but leave
	dentry negative.  In reality this could happen if a remote rename
	immediately followed the mkdir.

	* Don't BUG in fuse_iget() if multiple retries are needed to get a
	good inode.  This could happen if several lookups are racing for
	the same inode.

2006-09-29  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix compilation on 2.6.9.  Report from Troy Ayers

2006-09-27  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix Oops in fuse_readpages().  Reported by David Shaw

2006-09-24  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* Add support for nanosec times on FreeBSD

	* Fix FreeBSD compatibility issues

2006-09-23  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix one more compatibility bug.  Thanks to Ricardo Correia

	* Fix utimens compilation with uClibc.  Patch from Jamie Guinan

2006-09-22  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fixed several compatibility bugs in low level interface.
	Reported by Ricardo Correia

	* Add workaround for ARM caching bug

2006-09-16  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Rename new utimes() method to more logical utimens()

2006-09-14  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fuse tried to unlink already unlinked hidden files.  Bug
	reported by Milan Svoboda

2006-09-10  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.6.0-rc1

2006-09-10  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: Fix unlock on close for kernels < 2.6.18

	* Add ulockmgr library & server.  This can be used for handling
	file locking requests either directly from libfuse or over a
	network, etc.  This first version is not optimized and the number
	of file descriptors it uses may get out of hand

2006-09-07  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: Add interrupt support to high level library, which may be
	enabled with the 'intr' mount option.

	* When an operation is interrupted the thread handling that
	operation will receive SIGUSR1 (or other signal specified with the
	'intr_signal=N' option).  The library installs a no-op signal
	handler for this signal, unless there's already a handler
	installed.

	* The filesystem may query interrupt status (regardless of 'intr')
	with the fuse_interrupted() function.

	* mount.fuse: initialize $HOME if not set.  Report from Sven Goldt

2006-09-03  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: Multithreaded loop now allows unlimited number of threads.
	This is needed for locking operations which may block
	indefinitely.  Also the kernel now doesn't limit the number of
	outstanding requests so the library shouldn't do so either.

2006-09-01  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix recursive lock bug in interrupt handling

	* Add utimes() method to highlevel interface, which supports
	setting times with nanosecond resolution

2006-08-18  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: fix page leak if fuse_readpages() failed in it's
	initialization.  Bug found and original patch from Alexander
	Zarochentsev

	* For linux kernels >=2.6.18 (2.6.19 if using the fuse module from
	the kernel tree) the statfs method will receive the path within
	the filesystem on which the stat(v)fs syscall was called

	* fusermount: try to modprobe fuse module if invoked by root and
	unable to open device.  This is needed with udev, since the device
	node will be created only when the module is inserted, hence
	module autoloading won't work.  Reported by Szakacsits Szabolcs

2006-07-30  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* fusermount: if selinux is active, restore the original file's
	security context in unmount_rename().  Redhat bugzilla id 188561.
	Patch from Yves Perrenoud

	* Add POSIX file locking operation to high level library

	* Initialize context for unlink of hidden files on umount.  Bug
	reported by Tim Stoakes

2006-07-14  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Multiple release() calls can race with each other, resulting in
	the hidden file being deleted before the last release finishes.
	Bug found and patch tested by Mark Huijgen

2006-07-05  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* fusermount: if /dev/fuse doesn't exist, suggest modprobing fuse;
	this makes sense on systems using udev.  Reported by Szakacsits
	Szabolcs

2006-06-29  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 2.6.0-pre3

2006-06-29  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Support in kernel module for file locking and interruption.  The
	same functionality is available in official kernels >= 2.6.18

2006-06-28  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add POSIX file locking support

	* Add request interruption

2006-06-06  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add missing pthread_rwlock_destroy().  Patch from Remy Blank

2006-06-05  Remy Blank <remy.blank@pobox.com>

	* lib: canonicalize mount point in fuse_helper_opt_proc() so that
	unmounting succeeds even if mount point was relative.

2006-06-04  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib: fix emergency umount in helper.c when malloc fails.
	(The way it was done would end up in a segfault.)

2006-06-01  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib: adjust threading related compiler flags.
	Switch to "-pthread" from "-lpthread" as that's the preferred
	one on several platforms. Consulted with Terrence Cole and
	Miklos Szeredi

2006-05-08  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: search fusermount in installation directory (bindir) as
	well as in PATH.

2006-05-03  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* lib: fix compilation if CLOCK_MONOTONIC is not defined.
	Reported by Christian Magnusson

2006-04-23  Csaba Henk <csaba.henk@creo.hu>

	* lib: make FreeBSD mount routine recognize if kernel features
        backgrounded init and if it does, run the mount util in foreground
        (similarly to Linux)

2006-04-21  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: fix fput deadlock fix, the lockless solution could lead
	to "VFS: busy inodes after umount..."

	* kernel: fix race between checking and setting file->private_data
	for the device.  Found by Al Viro

2006-04-11  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* kernel: remove request pool, instead allocate requests on
	demand.  Account the number of background requests, and if they go
	over a limit, block the allocation of new requests.

	* kernel: fix deadlock if backgrounded request holds the last
	reference to the super block

	* kernel: don't use fuse_reset_request() during direct I/O
