Kernel Extension (Kernel Backend)

  • Update kernel extension to version 5.1.3

  • Add special handling for the O_EXEC open flag to prevent a kernel panic. Internally, O_EXEC is treated as O_RDONLY, meaning a readable file descriptor will be requested from the file system server. For details, see macfuse/macfuse#1130.

  • Fix an issue that resulted in the extended attribute name passed to the setxattr handler always being an empty string. On macOS, FUSE_COMPAT_SETXATTR_IN_SIZE needs to account for the additional position field and its associated padding. For details, see macfuse/macfuse#1134.
