  • FUSE updates in Linux 6.15 kernel enable longer filenames, increasing from 1024 to 4095 characters (one less than PATH_MAX).
  • The increase is necessary for handling Amazon/AWS S3 storage keys, which require encoding %xx escape characters.
  • Other changes include server connection timeout support, returning 'EPERM' for unsupported hard links, and fixing a race condition.
