From 33670fa296860283f04a7975b8c790f101e43a6e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 01:49:02 -0700 Subject: fuse: nfs export special lookups Implement the get_parent export operation by sending a LOOKUP request with ".." as the name. Implement looking up an inode by node ID after it has been evicted from the cache. This is done by seding a LOOKUP request with "." as the name (for all file types, not just directories). The filesystem can set the FUSE_EXPORT_SUPPORT flag in the INIT reply, to indicate that it supports these special lookups. Thanks to John Muir for the original implementation of this feature.
