From 6433b8998a21dc597002731c4ceb4144e856edc4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2018 16:43:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fuse: add FOPEN_CACHE_DIR Add flag returned by OPENDIR request to allow kernel to cache directory contents in page cache. The effect of FOPEN_CACHE_DIR is twofold: a) if not already cached, it writes entries into the cache b) if already cached, it allows reading entries from the cache The FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE has the same effect as on regular files: unless this flag is given the cache is cleared upon completion of open. So FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE and FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE flags should be used together to make use of the directory caching facility introduced in the following patches. The FUSE_AUTO_INVAL_DATA flag returned in INIT reply also has the same affect on the directory cache as it has on data cache for regular files.
