[fuse-devel] another fuse fs: buffcacher

A real abuse of Fuse :)

in my app, where I really use a variant of this (and it really works well for me), I share the cache between many processes so I have the hashmap of keys to file regions in the filesystem rather than the client.

1) I access this mapping via xattr; ioctl doesn't seem to be working for Python bindings.  Can ioctl be used by Python filesystems?

2) is there a way to explicitly invalidate some region of the file from the cache?

Was really easy to get this working with FUSE btw
