[PATCH 3/10] fuse: add O_ASYNC support to FUSE device

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Fri Mar 31 2006 - 12:47:37 EST


From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds asynchronous notification to FUSE - a FUSE server can
request O_ASYNC on a /dev/fuse file descriptor and receive SIGIO
when there is input available.

One subtlety - fuse_dev_fasync, which is called when O_ASYNC is
requested, does no locking, unlink the other methods. I think it's
unnecessary, as the fuse_conn.fasync list is manipulated only by
fasync_helper and kill_fasync, which provide their own locking. It
would also be wrong to use the fuse_lock, as it's a spin lock and
fasync_helper can sleep. My one concern with this is the fuse_conn
going away underneath fuse_dev_fasync - sys_fcntl takes a reference
on the file struct, so this seems not to be a problem.
