Detailed description of support request:

It would be great if s3fs could support server iam roles on AWS.  Currently, it 
is possible to retrieve iam credentials and a token from the meta-data service. 
 This simplifies configuration significantly.  s3cmd supports this in it's 1.5 
alpha version.

Hi,

IAM controls for accessing the objects by AccessKey, s3fs controls by unix 
permission.
So I think that s3fs have to need x-amz-meta headers because s3fs support like 
unix access.
Example, one user(probably root) runs s3fs on the machine, other users 
read/write to the mountpoint.
Then user does not know/control the Accesskey for it's bucket.
So that, I think that s3fs is not simple like s3cmd.

Regards,

Hi,  Edward

I updated s3fs as new revision r490.
This revision supports IAM role, you can specify only IAM role name by 
"aim_role" option instead of AccessKeyId/SecretAccessKey.
(It is like s3fs-c option.)

Next version of s3fs has this option soon.
If you can, please checkout new revision and use it.

And if you find a bug about this option, please post new issue.
(I closed this issue.)

Thanks a lot.
