fuse: implement NFS-like readdirplus support
This patch implements readdirplus support in FUSE, similar to NFS. The payload returned in the readdirplus call contains 'fuse_entry_out' structure thereby providing all the necessary inputs for 'faking' a lookup() operation on the spot. If the dentry and inode already existed (for e.g. in a re-run of ls -l) then just the inode attributes timeout and dentry timeout are refreshed. With a simple client->network->server implementation of a FUSE based filesystem, the following performance observations were made: Test: Performing a filesystem crawl over 20,000 files with sh# time ls -lR /mnt Without readdirplus: Run 1: 18.1s Run 2: 16.0s Run 3: 16.2s With readdirplus: Run 1: 4.1s Run 2: 3.8s Run 3: 3.8s The performance improvement is significant as it avoided 20,000 upcalls calls (lookup). Cache consistency is no worse than what already is. Signed-off-by: Anand V. Avati <avati@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
