In preparation for opening file in passthrough mode, store the fuse_open_out argument in ff->args to be passed into fuse_file_io_open() with the optional backing_id member. This will be used for setting up passthrough to backing file on open reply with FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH flag and a valid backing_id. Opening a file in passthrough mode may fail for several reasons, such as missing capability, conflicting open flags or inode in caching mode. Return EIO from fuse_file_io_open() in those cases. The combination of FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH and FOPEN_DIRECT_IO is allowed - it mean that read/write operations will go directly to the server, but mmap will be done to the backing file.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
