// Create a file inode and open it.
//
// The kernel calls this method when the user asks to open a file with the

// for example lookup_open, http://goo.gl/PlqE9d).
//
// However it's impossible to tell for sure that all kernels make this check
// in all cases and the official fuse documentation is less than encouraging
// (" the file does not exist, first create it with the specified mode, and
// then open it"). Therefore file systems would be smart to be paranoid and
// check themselves, returning EEXIST when the file already exists. This of
// course particularly applies to file systems that are volatile from the

// user; some reads may be served by the page cache. See notes on Write for
// more.
ReadFile(
ctx context.Context,
req *ReadFileRequest) (*ReadFileResponse, error)
// Write data to a file previously opened with CreateFile or OpenFile.
//
// When the user writes data using write(2), the write goes into the page
// cache and the page is marked dirty. Later the kernel may write back the
// page via the FUSE VFS layer, causing this method to be called:
//
// * The kernel calls address_space_operations::writepage when a dirty page
// needs to be written to backing store (cf. http://goo.gl/Ezbewg). Fuse
// sets this to fuse_writepage (cf. http://goo.gl/IeNvLT).
//
// * (http://goo.gl/Eestuy) fuse_writepage calls fuse_writepage_locked.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/RqYIxY) fuse_writepage_locked makes a write request to
// the userspace server.
//
// Note that writes *will* be received before a call to Flush when closing
// the file descriptor to which they were written:
//
// * (http://goo.gl/PheZjf) fuse_flush calls write_inode_now, which appears
// to start a writeback in the background (it talks about a "flusher
// thread").
//
// * (http://goo.gl/1IiepM) fuse_flush then calls fuse_sync_writes, which
// "[waits] for all pending writepages on the inode to finish".
//
// * (http://goo.gl/zzvxWv) Only then does fuse_flush finally send the
// flush request.
//
WriteFile(
ctx context.Context,
req *WriteFileRequest) (*WriteFileResponse, error)
// Synchronize the current contents of an open file to storage.
//
// vfs.txt documents this as being called for by the fsync(2) system call
// (cf. http://goo.gl/j9X8nB). Code walk for that case:
//
// * (http://goo.gl/IQkWZa) sys_fsync calls do_fsync, calls vfs_fsync, calls
// vfs_fsync_range.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/5L2SMy) vfs_fsync_range calls f_op->fsync.
//
// Note that this is also called by fdatasync(2) (cf. http://goo.gl/01R7rF),
// and may be called for msync(2) with the MS_SYNC flag (see the notes on
// FlushFile).
//
// See also: FlushFile, which may perform a similar purpose when closing a
// file (but which is not used in "real" file systems).
SyncFile(
ctx context.Context,
req *SyncFileRequest) (*SyncFileResponse, error)
// Flush the current state of an open file to storage upon closing a file
// descriptor.
//
// vfs.txt documents this as being called for each close(2) system call (cf.
// http://goo.gl/FSkbrq). Code walk for that case:
//
// * (http://goo.gl/e3lv0e) sys_close calls __close_fd, calls filp_close.
// * (http://goo.gl/nI8fxD) filp_close calls f_op->flush (fuse_flush).
//
// But note that this is also called in other contexts where a file
// descriptor is closed, such as dup2(2) (cf. http://goo.gl/NQDvFS). In the
// case of close(2), a flush error is returned to the user. For dup2(2), it
// is not.
//
// One potentially significant case where this may not be called is mmap'd
// files, where the behavior is complicated:
//
// * munmap(2) does not cause flushes (cf. http://goo.gl/j8B9g0).
//
// * On OS X, if a user modifies a mapped file via the mapping before
// closing the file with close(2), the WriteFile calls for the
// modifications may not be received before the FlushFile request for the
// close(2) (cf. http://goo.gl/kVmNcx).
//
// * However, even on OS X you can arrange for writes via a mapping to be
// flushed by calling msync(2) followed by close(2). On OS X msync(2)
// will cause a WriteFile to go through and close(2) will cause a
// FlushFile as usual (cf. http://goo.gl/kVmNcx). On Linux, msync(2) does
// nothing unless you set the MS_SYNC flag, in which case it causes a
// SyncFile (cf. http://goo.gl/P3mErk).
//
// In summary: if you make data durable in both FlushFile and SyncFile, then
// your users can get safe behavior from mapped files by calling msync(2)
// with MS_SYNC, followed by munmap(2), followed by close(2). On Linux, the
// msync(2) appears to be optional because close(2) implies dirty page
// writeback (cf. http://goo.gl/HyzLTT).
//
// Because of cases like dup2(2), calls to FlushFile are not necessarily one
// to one with calls to OpenFile. They should not be used for reference
// counting, and the handle must remain valid even after the method is called
// (use ReleaseFileHandle to dispose of it).
//
// Typical "real" file systems do not implement this, presumably relying on
// the kernel to write out the page cache to the block device eventually.
// They can get away with this because a later open(2) will see the same
// data. A file system that writes to remote storage however probably wants
// to at least schedule a real flush, and maybe do it immediately in order to
// return any errors that occur.

// to do anything useful. In traditional file systems in the kernel, the
// function inode_init_owner (http://goo.gl/5qavg8) contains the
// standards-compliant logic for this.
Attributes InodeAttributes
// The FUSE VFS layer in the kernel maintains a cache of file attributes,
// used whenever up to date information about size, mode, etc. is needed.
//
// For example, this is the abridged call chain for fstat(2):
//
// * (http://goo.gl/tKBH1p) fstat calls vfs_fstat.
// * (http://goo.gl/3HeITq) vfs_fstat eventuall calls vfs_getattr_nosec.
// * (http://goo.gl/DccFQr) vfs_getattr_nosec calls i_op->getattr.
// * (http://goo.gl/dpKkst) fuse_getattr calls fuse_update_attributes.
// * (http://goo.gl/yNlqPw) fuse_update_attributes uses the values in the
// struct inode if allowed, otherwise calling out to the user-space code.
//
// In addition to obvious cases like fstat, this is also used in more subtle
// cases like updating size information before seeking (http://goo.gl/2nnMFa)
// or reading (http://goo.gl/FQSWs8).
//
// Most 'real' file systems do not set inode_operations::getattr, and
// therefore vfs_getattr_nosec calls generic_fillattr which simply grabs the
// information from the inode struct. This makes sense because these file
// systems cannot spontaneously change; all modifications go through the
// kernel which can update the inode struct as appropriate.
//
// In contrast, a FUSE file system may have spontaneous changes, so it calls
// out to user space to fetch attributes. However this is expensive, so the
// FUSE layer in the kernel caches the attributes if requested.
//
// This field controls when the attributes returned in this response and
// stashed in the struct inode should be re-queried. Leave at the zero value
// to disable caching.
//
// More reading:
// http://stackoverflow.com/q/21540315/1505451
AttributesExpiration time.Time
// The time until which the kernel may maintain an entry for this name to
// inode mapping in its dentry cache. After this time, it will revalidate the
// dentry.
//
// As in the discussion of attribute caching above, unlike real file systems,
// FUSE file systems may spontaneously change their name -> inode mapping.
// Therefore the FUSE VFS layer uses dentry_operations::d_revalidate
// (http://goo.gl/dVea0h) to intercept lookups and revalidate by calling the
// user-space LookUpInode method. However the latter may be slow, so it
// caches the entries until the time defined by this field.
//
// Example code walk:
//
// * (http://goo.gl/M2G3tO) lookup_dcache calls d_revalidate if enabled.
// * (http://goo.gl/ef0Elu) fuse_dentry_revalidate just uses the dentry's
// inode if fuse_dentry_time(entry) hasn't passed. Otherwise it sends a
// lookup request.
//
// Leave at the zero value to disable caching.
//
// Beware: this value is ignored on OS X, where entry caching is disabled by
// default. See notes on MountConfig.EnableVnodeCaching for more.

//
// * (http://goo.gl/2nWJPL) iterate_dir, which is called by getdents(2) and
// readdir(2), sets dir_context::pos to file::f_pos before calling
// f_op->iterate, and then does the opposite assignment afterward.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/rTQVSL) fuse_readdir, which implements iterate for fuse
// directories, passes dir_context::pos as the offset to fuse_read_fill,
// which passes it on to user-space. fuse_readdir later calls
// parse_dirfile with the same context.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/vU5ukv) For each returned result (except perhaps the
// last, which may be truncated by the page boundary), parse_dirfile
// updates dir_context::pos with fuse_dirent::off.
//
// It is affected by the Posix directory stream interfaces in the following
// manner:
//
// * (http://goo.gl/fQhbyn, http://goo.gl/ns1kDF) opendir initially causes
// filepos to be set to zero.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/ezNKyR, http://goo.gl/xOmDv0) readdir allows the user
// to iterate through the directory one entry at a time. As each entry is
// consumed, its d_off field is stored in __dirstream::filepos.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/WEOXG8, http://goo.gl/rjSXl3) telldir allows the user
// to obtain the d_off field from the most recently returned entry.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/WG3nDZ, http://goo.gl/Lp0U6W) seekdir allows the user
// to seek backward to an offset previously returned by telldir. It
// stores the new offset in filepos, and calls llseek to update the
// kernel's struct file.
//
// * (http://goo.gl/gONQhz, http://goo.gl/VlrQkc) rewinddir allows the user
// to go back to the beginning of the directory, obtaining a fresh view.
// It updates filepos and calls llseek to update the kernel's struct

//
// Unfortunately, FUSE offers no way to intercept seeks
// (http://goo.gl/H6gEXa), so there is no way to cause seekdir or rewinddir
// to fail. Additionally, there is no way to distinguish an explicit
// rewinddir followed by readdir from the initial readdir, or a rewinddir
// from a seekdir to the value returned by telldir just after opendir.
//
// Luckily, Posix is vague about what the user will see if they seek
// backwards, and requires the user not to seek to an old offset after a
// rewind. The only requirement on freshness is that rewinddir results in

// The man page for pwrite(2) implies that aside from changing the file
// handle's offset, using pwrite is equivalent to using lseek(2) and then
// write(2). The man page for lseek(2) says the following:
//
// "The lseek() function allows the file offset to be set beyond the end of
// the file (but this does not change the size of the file). If data is later
// written at this point, subsequent reads of the data in the gap (a "hole")
// return null bytes (aq\0aq) until data is actually written into the gap."
//
// It is therefore reasonable to assume that the kernel is looking for
// the following semantics:
//
// * If the offset is less than or equal to the current size, extend the
// file as necessary to fit any data that goes past the end of the file.
//
// * If the offset is greater than the current size, extend the file
// with null bytes until it is not, then do the above.
//

// page at a time.
