Subject[PATCH 1/1] FUSE: Allow parallel direct writes on the same file
Date
As of now, in Fuse, direct writes on the same file are serialized
over inode lock i.e we hold inode lock for the whole duration of
the write request. This serialization works pretty well for the FUSE
user space implementations which rely on this inode lock for their
cache/data integrity etc. But it hurts badly such FUSE implementations
which has their own ways of mainting data/cache integrity and does not
use this serialization at all.

This patch allows parallel direct writes on the same file with the
help of a flag called FOPEN_PARALLEL_WRITES. If this flag is set on
the file (flag is passed from libfuse to fuse kernel as part of file
open/create), we do not hold inode lock for the whole duration of the
request, instead acquire it only to protect updates on certain fields
of the inode. FUSE implementations which rely on this inode lock can
continue to do so and this is default behaviour.
