Subject: [RESEND1, PATCH 0/2] fuse: allow filesystems to have precise control over data cache
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2019 09:15:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1553677194.git.kirr@nexedi.com> (raw)

Miklos,

This is a resend of the patches that teach fs/fuse/ to give filesystems
full control over data cache if the filesystem server indicates to
kernel that it is fully responsible for data cache invalidation. This
functionality is essential when the data in cache are relatively big and
it is very desirable to avoid automatically clearing the data cache of
inode on file size change. The second patch of the series describes the
problem in details as well as the fix to it.

I send the change initially ~ 2 weeks ago

	https://lwn.net/ml/linux-fsdevel/20190315212556.9315-1-kirr@nexedi.com/

but had not heard from you at all. Could you please have a look?

Thanks beforehand,
Kirill
