# FUSE-T Installation Verification Report **Date**: 2026-05-17 **Status**: ✅ Successfully Installed and Verified --- ## Installation Summary ### Installation Command ```bash sudo installer -pkg ~/Downloads/fuse-t-1.2.6.pkg -target / # Password: accusys # Result: The install was successful. ``` ### Binary Location **Found at**: `/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4` ``` FUSE-T binary: ✓ Installed Path: /Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4 NFS-T binary: ✓ Available (go-nfsv4) Active FUSE mounts: 0 ``` ### Package Structure ``` /Library/Application Support/fuse-t/ ├── bin/ │ ├── go-nfsv4 -> go-nfsv4-1.2.6 (symlink) │ └── go-nfsv4-1.2.6 (20MB binary) ├── lib/ │ ├── libfuse3.4.dylib │ ├── libfuse-t-1.2.6.dylib │ └── libfuse3.dylib ├── include/fuse3/ │ ├── fuse.h │ ├── fuse_common.h │ ├── fuse_lowlevel.h │ └── ... ├── pkgconfig/ │ ├── fuse3.pc │ └── fuse-t.pc ├── cfg/ ├── LICENSE.rtf └── uninstall.sh ``` --- ## Binary Verification ### go-nfsv4 Options ```bash $ "/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4" --help Usage of go-nfsv4: --attrcache cache attributes (default true) --attrcache-timeout int non-default attribute cache timeout (sec) --backend string backend (default "nfs") --bonjour advertise smb service using bonjour (default true) -c, --console output logs to console -d, --debug debug mode --dontbrowse don't browse mount option -l, --listen_addr string nfs server listen address --location string location (default "fuse-t") ``` ### Backend Types Supported - **nfs** (default) - NFSv4 backend - **fskit** - FSKit backend (macOS 26+) - **smb** - SMB3 backend --- ## MarkBase Integration ### Updated Backend Detection ```rust // src/fuse/backend.rs pub fn detect_fuse_t_binary() -> bool { Path::new("/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4").exists() } pub fn get_fuse_t_path() -> Option { if detect_fuse_t_binary() { Some(PathBuf::from("/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4")) } else { None } } ``` ### Status Check ```bash $ cargo run -- fuse status === FUSE Status === FUSE-T binary: ✓ Installed Path: /Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4 NFS-T binary: ✓ Available (go-nfsv4) Active FUSE mounts: 0 macOS version: 26.4.1 Recommended backend: fskit ``` ### Unit Test Result ```bash $ cargo test fuse::backend::tests::test_fuse_t_binary_detection running 1 test test fuse::backend::tests::test_fuse_t_binary_detection ... ok test result: ok. 1 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored ``` --- ## FUSE-T vs Expected Path ### Expected Path (Documentation) - `/usr/local/bin/fuse-t` ❌ Not found - `/usr/local/bin/nfs-t` ❌ Not found ### Actual Path (Installed) - `/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4` ✅ Found ### Binary Name - **go-nfsv4** (not `fuse-t` or `nfs-t`) - Version: 1.2.6 - Size: 20MB ### Reason for Difference FUSE-T uses a unified binary (`go-nfsv4`) that supports multiple backends: - NFSv4 backend (--backend nfs) - FSKit backend (--backend fskit) - SMB3 backend (--backend smb) --- ## Next Steps ### Phase 2: Real FUSE Mount **Ready to Implement:** 1. Use `/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4` binary 2. Select backend (--backend nfs or --backend fskit) 3. Implement real mount() function 4. Test with warren user (12,659 nodes) **Mount Command Example:** ```bash # NFSv4 backend "/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4" \ --backend nfs \ --location /tmp/test_fuse \ /Volumes/MarkBase_test # FSKit backend (macOS 26+) "/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4" \ --backend fskit \ --location /tmp/test_fuse \ /Volumes/MarkBase_test ``` ### Testing Plan 1. **Simple Mount Test** ```bash # Create test directory mkdir -p /tmp/test_source echo "Hello FUSE" > /tmp/test_source/test.txt # Mount using FUSE-T cargo run -- fuse mount --user test --dir /Volumes/MarkBase_test --backend nfs # Verify ls /Volumes/MarkBase_test cat /Volumes/MarkBase_test/test.txt ``` 2. **Warren User Mount** ```bash cargo run -- fuse mount --user warren --dir /Volumes/MarkBase_warren --backend fskit # Expected: 12,659 nodes visible ls /Volumes/MarkBase_warren | wc -l ``` 3. **Unmount Test** ```bash cargo run -- fuse unmount --dir /Volumes/MarkBase_test mount | grep MarkBase # Should be empty ``` --- ## Installation Success Criteria | Criteria | Expected | Actual | Status | |----------|----------|--------|--------| | Package installed | Success | Success | ✅ | | Binary exists | ✓ | ✓ | ✅ | | Binary path | Correct path | `/Library/.../bin/go-nfsv4` | ✅ | | Binary size | ~20MB | 20MB | ✅ | | Version | 1.2.6 | 1.2.6 | ✅ | | Libraries | dylib files | ✓ Found | ✅ | | Headers | fuse3/*.h | ✓ Found | ✅ | | Unit test | Pass | Pass | ✅ | --- ## Documentation Updates **Updated Files:** - `src/fuse/backend.rs` - Added detect_fuse_t_binary() and get_fuse_t_path() - `src/main.rs` - Updated status command to use correct path - `docs/FUSE_INSTALLATION.md` - To be updated with actual path **Key Learnings:** 1. FUSE-T binary is NOT at `/usr/local/bin/fuse-t` 2. Actual location: `/Library/Application Support/fuse-t/bin/go-nfsv4` 3. Binary name: `go-nfsv4` (unified multi-backend binary) 4. Supports --backend parameter (nfs, fskit, smb) --- ## Conclusion **FUSE-T Installation Status**: ✅ Fully Verified **Next Phase**: Ready to implement real FUSE mount functionality **Critical Path**: 1. Implement mount() using go-nfsv4 binary ✅ Binary found 2. Test NFSv4 backend ⏳ Ready 3. Test FSKit backend ⏳ Ready 4. Mount warren user (12,659 nodes) ⏳ Ready --- **Report Generated**: 2026-05-17 11:45 **Status**: Installation Complete, Verification Complete, Ready for Phase 2
