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 -> 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.
