There is a confusion with fuse_file_uncached_io_{start,end} interface.
These helpers do two things when called from passthrough open()/release():
1. Take/drop negative refcount of fi-&gt;iocachectr (inode uncached io mode)
2. State change ff-&gt;iomode IOM_NONE &lt;-&gt; IOM_UNCACHED (file uncached open)

The calls from parallel dio write path need to take a reference on
fi-&gt;iocachectr, but they should not be changing ff-&gt;iomode state, because
in this case, the fi-&gt;iocachectr reference does not stick around until file
release().

Factor out helpers fuse_inode_uncached_io_{start,end}, to be used from
parallel dio write path and rename fuse_file_*cached_io_{start,end} helpers
to fuse_file_*cached_io_{open,release} to clarify the difference.

Fixes: 205c1d802683 ("fuse: allow parallel dio writes with FUSE_DIRECT_IO_ALLOW_MMAP")

Pull fuse updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Add passthrough mode for regular file I/O.

   This allows performing read and write (also via memory maps) on a
   backing file without incurring the overhead of roundtrips to
   userspace. For now this is only allowed to privileged servers, but
   this limitation will go away in the future (Amir Goldstein)

 - Fix interaction of direct I/O mode with memory maps (Bernd Schubert)

 - Export filesystem tags through sysfs for virtiofs (Stefan Hajnoczi)

 - Allow resending queued requests for server crash recovery (Zhao Chen)

 - Misc fixes and cleanups

* tag 'fuse-update-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse: (38 commits)
  fuse: get rid of ff-&gt;readdir.lock
  fuse: remove unneeded lock which protecting update of congestion_threshold
  fuse: Fix missing FOLL_PIN for direct-io
  fuse: remove an unnecessary if statement
  fuse: Track process write operations in both direct and writethrough modes
  fuse: Use the high bit of request ID for indicating resend requests
  fuse: Introduce a new notification type for resend pending requests
  fuse: add support for explicit export disabling
  fuse: __kuid_val/__kgid_val helpers in fuse_fill_attr_from_inode()

Some FUSE daemons want to know if the received request is a resend
request. The high bit of the fuse request ID is utilized for indicating
this, enabling the receiver to perform appropriate handling.

The init flag "FUSE_HAS_RESEND" is added to indicate this feature.

open_by_handle_at(2) can fail with -ESTALE with a valid handle returned
by a previous name_to_handle_at(2) for evicted fuse inodes, which is
especially common when entry_valid_timeout is 0, e.g. when the fuse
daemon is in "cache=none" mode.

The time sequence is like:

	name_to_handle_at(2)	# succeed
	evict fuse inode
	open_by_handle_at(2)	# fail

The root cause is that, with 0 entry_valid_timeout, the dput() called in
name_to_handle_at(2) will trigger iput -&gt; evict(), which will send
FUSE_FORGET to the daemon.  The following open_by_handle_at(2) will send
a new FUSE_LOOKUP request upon inode cache miss since the previous inode
eviction.  Then the fuse daemon may fail the FUSE_LOOKUP request with
-ENOENT as the cached metadata of the requested inode has already been
cleaned up during the previous FUSE_FORGET.  The returned -ENOENT is
treated as -ESTALE when open_by_handle_at(2) returns.

This confuses the application somehow, as open_by_handle_at(2) fails
when the previous name_to_handle_at(2) succeeds.  The returned errno is
also confusing as the requested file is not deleted and already there.
It is reasonable to fail name_to_handle_at(2) early in this case, after
which the application can fallback to open(2) to access files.

Since this issue typically appears when entry_valid_timeout is 0 which
is configured by the fuse daemon, the fuse daemon is the right person to
explicitly disable the export when required.

Also considering FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT actually indicates the support for
lookups of "." and "..", and there are existing fuse daemons supporting
export without FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT set, for compatibility, we add a new
INIT flag for such purpose.

FUSE server calls the FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_OPEN ioctl with a backing file
descriptor.  If the call succeeds, a backing file identifier is returned.

A later change will be using this backing file id in a reply to OPEN
request with the flag FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH to setup passthrough of file
operations on the open FUSE file to the backing file.

The FUSE server should call FUSE_DEV_IOC_BACKING_CLOSE ioctl to close the
backing file by its id.

This can be done at any time, but if an open reply with FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH
flag is still in progress, the open may fail if the backing file is
closed before the fuse file was opened.

Setting up backing files requires a server with CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges.
For the backing file to be successfully setup, the backing file must
implement both read_iter and write_iter file operations.

The limitation on the level of filesystem stacking allowed for the
backing file is enforced before setting up the backing file.

FUSE_PASSTHROUGH capability to passthrough FUSE operations to backing
files will be made available with kernel config CONFIG_FUSE_PASSTHROUGH.

When requesting FUSE_PASSTHROUGH, userspace needs to specify the
max_stack_depth that is allowed for FUSE on top of backing files.

Introduce the flag FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH and backing_id to fuse_open_out
argument that can be used when replying to OPEN request, to setup
passthrough of io operations on the fuse inode to a backing file.

Introduce a refcounted fuse_backing object that will be used to
associate an open backing file with a fuse inode.
