FUSE attempts to detect server support for statx by trying it once and setting no_statx=1 if it fails with ENOSYS, but consider the following scenario: - Userspace (e.g. sh) calls stat() on a file * succeeds - Userspace (e.g. lsd) calls statx(BTIME) on the same file - request_mask = STATX_BASIC_STATS | STATX_BTIME - first pass: sync=true due to differing cache_mask - statx fails and returns ENOSYS - set no_statx and retry - retry sets mask = STATX_BASIC_STATS - now mask == cache_mask; sync=false (time_before: still valid) - so we take the "else if (stat)" path - "err" is still ENOSYS from the failed statx call Fix this by zeroing "err" before retrying the failed call.
