%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Fuse FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a simple interface for userspace programs to export a virtual filesystem to the Linux kernel. Fuse also aims to provide a secure method for non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem implementations. &lfs81_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &fuse3-md5sum; Download size: &fuse3-size; Estimated disk space required: &fuse3-buildsize; Estimated build time: &fuse3-time; Fuse Dependencies Optional (to rebuild the API documentation) User Notes: Enable the following options in the kernel configuration and recompile the kernel if necessary: File systems ---> <*/M> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support [CONFIG_FUSE_FS] fuse Install Fuse by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --exec-prefix=/ \ --with-pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib/pkgconfig \ INIT_D_PATH=/tmp/init.d && make The API documentation is included in the package, but if you have installed and wish to rebuild it, issue doxygen doc/Doxyfile. This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && rm -v /lib/libfuse3.{so,la} && ln -sfv ../../lib/libfuse3.so.3 /usr/lib/libfuse3.so && rm -rf /tmp/init.d && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/fuse-&fuse3-version; && install -v -m644 doc/{README.NFS,kernel.txt} \ /usr/share/doc/fuse-&fuse3-version; && cp -Rv doc/html /usr/share/doc/fuse-&fuse3-version; --exec-prefix=/: This parameter moves programs and libraries that could be needed before the /usr directory is mounted, to the root filesystem. INIT_D_PATH=/tmp/init.d: This parameter installs the bootscript into /tmp/init.d as a bootscript is not required. rm -rf /tmp/init.d: This removes the unneeded bootscript. Some options regarding mount policy can be set in the file /etc/fuse.conf. To install the file run the following command as the root user: cat > /etc/fuse.conf << "EOF" # Set the maximum number of FUSE mounts allowed to non-root users. # The default is 1000. # #mount_max = 1000 # Allow non-root users to specify the 'allow_other' or 'allow_root' # mount options. # #user_allow_other EOF Additional information about the meaning of the configuration options are found in the man page.
