Can't you just make it up in fuse?

That sounds kind of recursive - a bit in stx_mask would be saying whether or not stx_mask can be used. Besides, what would it mean if that bit says you can't use stx_mask? None of the stx_* fields are valid? > +#define STATX_RESULT_MASK STATX__RESERVED Please don't use that bit. Sorry, this patch doesn't make sense. Just set result_mask to STATX_BASIC_STATS in fuse_fill_attr(). David
