There are situations where fuse servers can become unresponsive or stuck, for example if the server is deadlocked. Currently, there's no good way to detect if a server is stuck and needs to be killed manually. This commit adds an option for enforcing a timeout (in seconds) for requests where if the timeout elapses without the server responding to the request, the connection will be automatically aborted. Please note that these timeouts are not 100% precise. For example, the request may take roughly an extra FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ seconds beyond the requested timeout due to internal implementation, in order to mitigate overhead.

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 reStructuredText 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.
