8 * CUSE enables character devices to be implemented from userland much
9 * like FUSE allows filesystems. On initialization /dev/cuse is
10 * created. By opening the file and replying to the CUSE_INIT request
11 * userland CUSE server can create a character device. After that the
12 * operation is very similar to FUSE.
14 * A CUSE instance involves the following objects.
16 * cuse_conn : contains fuse_conn and serves as bonding structure
17 * channel : file handle connected to the userland CUSE server
18 * cdev : the implemented character device
19 * dev : generic device for cdev
21 * Note that 'channel' is what 'dev' is in FUSE. As CUSE deals with
22 * devices, it's called 'channel' to reduce confusion.
24 * channel determines when the character device dies. When channel is
25 * closed, everything begins to destruct. The cuse_conn is taken off
26 * the lookup table preventing further access from cdev, cdev and
27 * generic device are removed and the base reference of cuse_conn is
30 * On each open, the matching cuse_conn is looked up and if found an
31 * additional reference is taken which is released when the file is
