What is actually the reason not to pass through flags from
fuse_update_get_attr()? Wouldn't it make sense to request the minimal
required mask and then server side can decide if it wants to fill in more?
This and following commit is about btime and btime only. It's about
adding just this single attribute, otherwise the logic is unchanged.
But the flexibility is there in the interface definition, and
functionality can be added later.
Sure, though what speaks against setting (limiting the mask) right away?
But then the result is basically uncacheable, until we have separate
validity timeouts for each attribute. Maybe we need that, maybe not,
but it does definitely have side effects.
Ah right, updating the cache timeout shouldn't be done unless the reply
contains all attributes. Although you already handle that in fuse_do_statx
if ((sx->mask & STATX_BASIC_STATS) == STATX_BASIC_STATS) {
fuse_change_attributes(inode, &attr, &outarg.stat,
ATTR_TIMEOUT(&outarg), attr_version);
}
Thanks,
Bernd
