The user program exits the main loop. 2. The user program sends unmount to the kernel. 3. The kernel sends FUSE_DESTROY to the user program. 4. The kernel waits for the user program to respond to FUSE_DESTROY. 5. The user program does not respond because it has exited the main loop. 6. The kernel wait times out after 60 seconds. Perhaps the solution is to close the fd before calling unmount(), like the Linux code in https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/master/lib/mount.c#L275 does? That will prevent the kernel from sending FUSE_DESTROY, but what is the purpose of FUSE_DESTROY if the user program can't respond to it? __Martin
