"textContent": "Extended\nattributes (xattrs) provide a way to attach key/value metadata to inodes—files, directories, and the like—in a filesystem. As with many Linux filesystems, the FUSE filesystem supports xattrs. In a filesystem-track session at the 2026 Linux Storage,\nFilesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit, FUSE maintainer Miklos Szeredi led a discussion about caching xattrs in kernel memory; he would like to create some common infrastructure that could be used by FUSE and shared with other filesystems.",
