Fuse allows filesystems to bypass the page cache using the "direct_io" flag. This is not the same as O_DIRECT, it's dictated by the filesystem not the application. Some functionality didn't work in this mode, however. This short patchset improves that: 1. fuse: allow kernel to access "direct_io" files 2. fuse: allow private mappings of "direct_io" files 3. splice: implement default splice_read method The third patch is not fuse specific, it implements ->splice_read() for any filesystem which doesn't provide one. Comments are welcome.
