ChangeLog

2004-06-22  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* No request allocation needed on inode and file release
	
2004-06-21  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Fix possible inode leak in userspace in case of unfinished
	lookup/mknod/mkdir/symlink/link operation.
	
2004-06-20  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Fix some races and cleanups in fuse_read_super()
	
2004-06-19  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Requests are allocated at open time
	
2004-06-03  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Build shared library as well as static (using libtool)

	* Change FUSE_MINOR_VERSION from 1 to 0.  I know it's illegal but
	there has not been a release with the previous minor number, and I
	hope nobody is using it for anything.

	* Change fuse_main(), so that default behavior is to go into
	background if mount is successful.  '-f' and '-d' options disable
	backgrounding.  This fixes the "Why does my FUSE daemon hang?"
	newbie complaint.

	* Cache ENOSYS (function not implemented) errors on *xattr, flush
	and fsync

	* Don't call getdir method from open() only from first readdir().
	Open is sometimes just used to store the current directory
	(e.g. find)
	
2004-05-18  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Added flush() call
	
2004-05-04  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Extended attributes operations added (getxattr, setxattr,
	listxattr, removexattr)

2004-03-25  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* If filesystem doesn't define a statfs operation, then an
	all-zero default statfs is returned instead of ENOSYS

	* Add FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA filesystem flag for kernels > 2.6.4

2004-03-09  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Fix for uClinux (Christian Magnusson)

2004-03-02  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* fuse_main() adds "-n progname" to the fusermount command line
	
	* More kernel interface changes:

	* Lookup/getattr return cache timeout values

2004-02-25  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Clean up option parsing in fuse_main()

	* Added fuse_get() function which returns the fuse object created
	by fuse_main()

2004-02-20  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* removed old way of mounting (fusermount mountpoint program)

	* more kernel interface changes:

	* added nanosecond precision to file times

	* added /proc/fs/fuse/version which contains MAJOR.MINOR

2004-02-19  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* statfs library API changed to match other methods.  Since this
	  is not backward compatible FUSE_MAJOR_VERSION is changed to 2

	* kernel interface changes follow:

	* statfs changed to 64 bits, added 'bavail' field

	* add generation number to lookup result

	* optimized mknod/mkdir/symlink/link (no separate lookup is
	needed)

	* Added user-mount.2.6.2-rc3.patch

	* Add FS_SAFE flag to fuse filesystem

	* fusermount should allow (un)mounting for non-root even if not
	suid-root
	
2004-02-12  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Remove MS_PERMISSION mount flag (that means something else now)
	
2004-02-10  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Added check for i_size_read/write functions to configure.in
	(patch by Valient Gough)

2004-01-27  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* fuse_unmount() now uses -q option of fusermount, so no error is
	printed if the cause of the program exit is that the filesystem
	has already been unmounted

2004-01-26  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

2004-01-22  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Write all pending data before a RELEASE operation

	* Suppress 'Bad file descriptor' warning on exit

	* Replaced fusermount option '-d xxx' with '-n xxx' so it doesn't
	get confused with '-d' of fuse_main() (sorry about this change)

	* New fusermount option '-l' which enables big reads.  Big reads
	are now disabled by default.

	* fuse_main() can accept fusermount arguments after a '--'

2004-01-19  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Support for exporting filesystem over NFS (see README.NFS)

2004-01-14  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	(Note: the mknod method does not yet use 32bit device number)

	* Added distutils support to the python module, as per standard
	  python development practice

2003-12-11  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>

	* Add file locking for mount/unmount (based on patch by Valient
	Gough)

2003-12-11  David McNab <david@rebirthing.co.nz>

	* Python filesystem - was broken with python2.3, now fixed:
	   - changed PyTuple_* calls to PySequence_*, because os.lstat
	     is no longer returning a pure tuple
	   - changed PyInt_Check() calls to also call PyLong_Check,
	     to cover for cases (eg os.lstat) where longs are returned
	   - Added support for file 'release' handling, which IMO is
	     essential since this signals to a FS that writes to a file
	     are complete (and therefore the file can now be disposed of
	     meaningfully at the python filesystem's discretion)
	   - Added '__init__' handler to base Fuse class, which allows
	     your Python class to know the mountpoint and mount args,
	     as attributes myfs.mountpoint, myfs.optlist, myfs.optdict
	
	* General:
	   - added 'mount.fuse' script (in util/ dir), which is meant to be
	     symlinked from /sbin, and which allows FUSE filesystems to
	     be mounted with the 'mount' command, and listed in fstab;
	     also, mount arguments get passed to your filesystem


2003-11-04  Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@inf.bme.hu>
