Introduce the capability to dynamically configure the max pages limit (FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES) through a sysctl. This allows system administrators to dynamically set the maximum number of pages that can be used for servicing requests in fuse. Previously, this is gated by FUSE_MAX_MAX_PAGES which is statically set to 256 pages. One result of this is that the buffer size for a write request is limited to 1 MiB on a 4k-page system. The default value for this sysctl is the original limit (256 pages). $ sysctl -a | grep max_pages_limit fs.fuse.max_pages_limit = 256 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 256 $ echo 1024 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit 1024 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 1024 $ echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument $ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit tee: /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit: Invalid argument $ echo 65535 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/fuse/max_pages_limit 65535 $ sysctl -n fs.fuse.max_pages_limit 65535 Signed-off-by: Joanne Koong <joannelkoong@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com> Reviewed-by: Sweet Tea Dorminy <sweettea-kernel@dorminy.me> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
