blobfuse-1.4.3

Bug Fixes:

#674 : Content-type is not updated for files > 64MB in size
#675 : segfault in streaming when open and close call come in parallel for same file

Other Fixes:

• Default service config to exclude -d option (this was resulting into log flood with libfuse traces)
• Blobfuse deleting files in local system which were out of scope from mount folder
• Documentation : Readme correction for proxy config

blobfuse-1.4.2

Bug Fixes:

#658 : Fixed segfault in streaming when file is 0 byte in length
#660 : Added mp4 to list of supported content types
#665 : SYNC and DIRECT open flags are not supported. New cli param added to supress them in open file call

New Cli Options:

--ignore-open-flags : Supress unsupported flags in open file call.

blobfuse-1.4.1

Bug Fixes:

#638 : Mount blob using Managed Identity or service principal failed in Azure China Cloud

• Gen2 accounts were not showing correct ACL permissions if there are additional service-principals in ACL
• Fix for using MSI Secret from environment variable

Feature addition

• Read Streaming support added for 'read-only' mounts. Instead of downloading entire file only part of it will be downloaded on demand.
• Background download support. Instead of downloading entire file in open call, if configured, open will start download in background and read/write call will wait untill download completes. Thus making 'open' call non-blocking.
• Attribute cache and content cache can be invalidated using 'fsync' comand on file.
• 'fsyncdir' will invalidate attribute-cache of all its children

New Cli Options:

--background-download : Set this true if you want file download to run in the background on open.
--invalidate-on-sync : Set this to true if you want the particular file or directory content and attribute cache to be invalidated on 'fsync' or 'fsyncdir'. Refer README for more details.
--streaming : Enable streaming. Works only for 'read-only' mount. Add '-o ro' in mount cli and set this flag to 'true' to enable streaming.
--stream-cache-mb : Limit total amount of data being cached in memory with streaming.
--max-blocks-per-file : Maximum number of blocks to be cached in memory for read streaming.
--block-size-mb=16 : Size (in MB) of a block to be downloaded during streaming. Refer README for more details.

blobfuse-1.3.8

Bug Fixes:

#604 : Linux file list commands is only showing 5000 files in a folder
#609 : Expose max retry count and retry time out settings
#612 : Segmentation fault when running blobfuse on a pod on AKS version 1.19.11
#613 : blobfuse mount with invalid credentials still returns succeed

New Cli Options:

--max-retry : Maximum retry count if the failure codes are retryable. Default count is 26.
--max-retry-interval-in-seconds : Maximum number of seconds between 2 retries, retry interval is exponentially increased but it can never exceed this value. Default naximum interval is 60 seconds.
--basic-remount-check : Try checking for a remount by reading /etc/mtab instead of calling the syscall setmntent (#612)
--pre-mount-validate : Skip cURL version check and validate storage connection before mount. (#613)

blobfuse-1.3.7-Linux

Changes:

• Features:

  • Blobfuse will block initial on mount list API calls to storage if the duration is configured while mounting, to save billing money.
  • Blobfuse can be configured to mount through Proxy Server
  • Blobfuse will upload only newly created files or modified files to storage, Note: changes to metadata only will not propagate unless there are changes to file contents. It can be configured to turn off this flag.
  • Added Azure CLI script for generating SasToken
  • Content-type update in blob, based on file extension

• Bug Fixes:

  • Corrected available cache calculation for non sudo users
  • #540: MSI and ADLS now working properly with gen-1 and gen-2 accounts
  • #548 :Fixed concurrency issues affecting MSI performance
  • #552 : Made Disk thresholds configurable, check README for CLI options
  • #578 : Reduced the libCurl minimum version post-fork authentication
  • #586: fixed the erroring out of chmod and rename with SAS token on ADLS account
  • #584: Evict read only files as well from cache
  • #590: Added Proxy support with custom client certificate file
  • #593 : Resolved race conflict issue when multiple threads read the same blob

• New Cli Options :

  • --upload-modified-only=true . Default is true so unless there are writes to the file it will not be reuploaded to Storage.
  • --set-content-type=true. Set the 'content-type' property in blob while uploading. This will be based on the file extension.
  • --cancel-list-on-mount-seconds=0. After mount block the list call for give number of seconds. After mounting libfuse automatically fires a list call to list all files and directories which results into unintended calls to container.
  • --cache-poll-timeout-msec=1. Caching polling and eviction check time interval (in milliseconds). Default is 1 milisecond.
  • --high-disk-threshold-in-seconds. The upper limit percentage of disk usage. Disk cache cleanup will be triggered when it reaches this percentage.
  • --low-disk-threshold-in-seconds. The lower limit percentage for used disk space below which GC will not clear disk cache.
  • --ca-cert-file=. Provide client certificate file for proxy environment
  • --httpsproxy= < proxy >. HTTPS proxy through which connection to storage is allowed.
  • --httpproxy= < proxy >. HTTP proxy through which connection to storage is allowed.

3. Blob names will allow '&', '%', '+' and "="
4. Sticky bits will be allowed in ADLS Gen 2 permission list , this is a fix for the error "Unexpected number of permissions"
