Userspace filesystems can push data for a specific inode without it being explicitly requested. This can be accomplished by using NOTIFY_STORE. However, this may race against another process performing different operations on the same inode. If, for example, there is a process reading from it, it may happen that it will block waiting for data to be available (locking the folio), while the FUSE server will also block trying to lock the same folio to update it with the inode data. The easiest solution, as suggested by Miklos, is to allow the userspace filesystem to skip locked folios.

Instead of sending the usual 'ping' to the original thread, I've decided to resend the patch as an RFC. As I mentioned before, this is an attempt to forward port the original patch from Miklos to the folios world. Also, the same question: if we fail to get a folio and need to skip it, 'this_num' needs to be updated; but I'm not 100% sure if it's OK to use PAGE_SIZE in that case. Obviously, libfuse will need to support this new NOWAIT flag (I can look at that, of course). But I was wondering if the NOTIFY_STORE behaviour shouldn't *always* skip locked folios instead of doing it only when the flag is set. (By the way, I'm not sure if I'm using the 'Originally-by:' tag correctly; I just want to make sure the authorship is preserved. Please let me know if that's not correct.)
