Hey All,
Linux 4.11 has added support for a new system call, statx [1]. statx
provides more information than what stat() does today. Given that
there could be potential users for this new interface it would be nice
to have statx supported in 4.0. We could review if some of our
translators, nfs & smb accesses leverage this interface for some
enhanced functionality.
I have not yet checked the current state of support for statx in fuse.
Needless to say it would be useful to have it in there. If somebody's
interested in working this out across the entire stack (fuse &
gluster), do let us know here!
I can take a shot at this. A cursory look seems to indicate support in
fuse as well, since the syscall is basically overloading vfs_getattr()
and the patch contains changes to fuse_getattr to accommodate the new
params. So it might just be the gluster bits where we need to introduce
the fop.
