Hi, I just wanted to ask if ioctl and poll are going to be supported. Thanks for the great work.

Could you be able to point us to that functionality?

emanuelef commented 8 years ago

Example ioctl

I've also seen those calls mentioned (but not supported yet) here

What's the purposse of ioctl? I don't fully understand it...

Hi, I'm working on a virtualization framework for IoT devices. I would strongly need the poll call to be supported and the possibility to fake an interrupt notifying when a file is ready for input/output. I think that is done through the fuse_notify_poll.

I'm also available in trying to do it myself but I would strongly need some pointers because I'm not a FUSE expert and I do not know how fuse-bindings works exactly.

Thank you very much for your work!
