    nodefs: Don't crash on handleless WithFlags opens · 402331d4
    Kirill Smelkov authored
    Since https://git.kernel.org/linus/7678ac5061 FUSE filesystems were allowed to
    return ENOSYS from open and, open seeing this, the kernel will not send any
    open request anymore and just use Fh=0 for all opened files. This is handy for
    filesystems that don't have any per-opened-file state.
    
    However if there is at least one node for which opened files should have
    their own state, it is not correct to return ENOSYS from open _ever_, as that
    would prevent the kernel to call open on all nodes - in particular on the node
    where open needs to create a state associated with the file handle(*).
    
    It is already explicitly documented that Node.Open can return File=nil
    in which case filesystem operations like Read and Write will be called
    on the node directly. This way a filesystem could try to simulate an
    Open that was returning ENOSYS with Open that returns File=nil. However
    it is not the same as ENOSYS open also prevents the kernel from dropping
    the file cache:
    
    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/fs/fuse/file.c?id=v5.0-rc3-241-g7c2614bf7a1f#n131
    
    From this point of view Opens that were returning ENOSYS should be
    replaced with Open that returns WithFlags{File=nil, flags=FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE}.
    
    Unfortunately if one tries to do that, go-fuse segfaults as the test
    included in this patch demonstrates:

    Fix it by teaching registerFileHandle not to register any handle at all
    and return Fh=0, if the inner file (file itself, or the file that was wrapped
    with WithFlags) is nil.
    
    After the patch the trace for world.txt open/read (that is opened with
    WithFlags{File=nil, Flags=FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE} is as follows.

    (*) my particular case is filesystem where many nodes are just data, but
    additionally there are files that behave like sockets - for every client
    who opens such file the filesystem establishes separate bidirectional
    channel for control exchange via that stream:
