We have modifed the FUSE driver to support ExtFUSE feature. Therefore, you will have to install and run a our modified kernel. To clone the kernel sources do:
$ git clone --branch ExtFUSE-1.0 https://github.com/extfuse/linux
$ cd linux
$ make menuconfig
--> General setup
[*] Enable bpf() system call
--> File systems
<*> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support
[*] Extension framework for FUSE
$ make -j4
$ sudo make install -j4
$ make headers_install
In menuconfig step, DO NOT select FUSE as a kernel module as it will cause the kernel compilation to fail; instead, build FUSE into the kernel.
Boot into the new kernel. Clone ExtFUSE library sources and build. Export the path to repo as EXTFUSE_REPO_PATH. You will need LLVM/Clang toolchain to build.
$ git clone https://github.com/extfuse/extfuse
$ cd extfuse
$ export EXTFUSE_REPO_PATH=$(pwd)
$ LLC=llc-3.8 CLANG=clang-3.8 make
The eBPF code for handling FUSE requests in the kernel can be found in bpf/extfuse.c.
Once you build the library, compiled eBPF bytecode can be found in src/extfuse.o.
Finally, you will also need a modified FUSE library. To clone its source repo:
$ git clone --branch ExtFUSE-1.0 https://github.com/extfuse/libfuse
Follow instructions here to build libfuse. NOTE that you will need to run ./makeconf.sh to create the configure script.
You can test ExtFUSE functionality with a simple stackable FUSE file system here. NOTE that you will need to copy $EXTFUSE_REPO_PATH/src/extfuse.o to /tmp before you test StackFS because the name and path is hard-coded in StackFS_LL.c.
$ git clone https://github.com/ashishbijlani/StackFS
$ cd StackFS
$ make
$ cp $EXTFUSE_REPO_PATH/bpf/extfuse.o /tmp/.
$ sudo sh -c "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$EXTFUSE_REPO_PATH ./StackFS_ll -o max_write=131072 -o writeback_cache -o splice_read -o splice_write -o splice_move -r $ROOT_DIR $MNT_DIR -o allow_other"
