Hi,

I have a question about this commit

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/5521/commits/0f11ec237d4692d313a038ed61aa07a3f40555ba#diff-bf87beacb5e3b3ff3ade7ac4a8332d20

which introduce "fuse_disable_pagecache" option

commit description is
"In ceph-fuse case,
there are two caches, one is in ceph-fuse, another one is in kernel.
We can't disable/enable the kernel cache dynamically. So adding an
config option to completely disable kernel cache."

and

-    if (cfuse->client->cct->_conf->fuse_use_invalidate_cb)
-    fi->keep_cache = 1;

+#if FUSE_VERSION >= FUSE_MAKE_VERSION(2, 8)
+    if (cfuse->client->cct->_conf->fuse_disable_pagecache)
+      fi->direct_io = 1;
+    else if (cfuse->client->cct->_conf->fuse_use_invalidate_cb)
+      fi->keep_cache = 1;
+#endif


So, does it disable both caches ? (fuse cache(keep_cache=0) and host cache (direct_io=1).

Isn't it possible to have direct_io = 0 and keep_cache = 1 at the same time ?

If I understand, fuse_use_invalidate_cb is to be able to invalidate fuse cache.

Regards,

Alexandre.
