fuse: implement ioctl support
Generic ioctl support is tricky to implement because only the ioctl implementation itself knows which memory regions need to be read and/or written. To support this, fuse client can request retry of ioctl specifying memory regions to read and write. Deep copying (nested pointers) can be implemented by retrying multiple times resolving one depth of dereference at a time. For security and cleanliness considerations, ioctl implementation has restricted mode where the kernel determines data transfer directions and sizes using the _IOC_*() macros on the ioctl command. In this mode, retry is not allowed. For all FUSE servers, restricted mode is enforced. Unrestricted ioctl will be used by CUSE. Plese read the comment on top of fs/fuse/file.c::fuse_file_do_ioctl() for more information. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
