 14:53:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] make buffer size match kernel max transfer
9a0615
 size
9a0615
9a0615
Currently libfuse has a hardcoded buffer limit to 128kib, while fuse
9a0615
kernel module has a limit up to 32 pages.
9a0615
9a0615
This patch changes buffer limit to match the current page size, instead
9a0615
of assuming 4096 bytes pages, enabling architectures with bigger pages
9a0615
to use larger buffers, improving performance.
9a0615
9a0615
Also, add a new macro (HEADER_SIZE) to specify the space needed to
9a0615
accommodate the header, making it easier to understand why those extra
9a0615
4096 bytes are needed
