NTFS3
=====
Summary and Features
====================
NTFS3 is fully functional NTFS Read-Write driver. The driver works with NTFS
versions up to 3.1. File system type to use on mount is *ntfs3*.
- This driver implements NTFS read/write support for normal, sparse and
compressed files.
- Supports native journal replaying.
- Supports NFS export of mounted NTFS volumes.
- Supports extended attributes. Predefined extended attributes:
- *system.ntfs_security* gets/sets security
Descriptor: SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR_RELATIVE
- *system.ntfs_attrib* gets/sets ntfs file/dir attributes.
Note: Applied to empty files, this allows to switch type between
sparse(0x200), compressed(0x800) and normal.
- *system.ntfs_attrib_be* gets/sets ntfs file/dir attributes.
Same value as system.ntfs_attrib but always represent as big-endian
(endianness of system.ntfs_attrib is the same as of the CPU).
Mount Options
=============
The list below describes mount options supported by NTFS3 driver in addition to
generic ones. You can use every mount option with **no** option. If it is in
this table marked with no it means default is without **no**.
.. flat-table::
:widths: 1 5
:fill-cells:
* - iocharset=name
- This option informs the driver how to interpret path strings and
translate them to Unicode and back. If this option is not set, the
default codepage will be used (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT).
Example: iocharset=utf8
* - uid=
- :rspan:`1`
* - gid=
* - umask=
- Controls the default permissions for files/directories created after
the NTFS volume is mounted.
* - dmask=
- :rspan:`1` Instead of specifying umask which applies both to files and
directories, fmask applies only to files and dmask only to directories.
* - fmask=
* - noacsrules
- "No access rules" mount option sets access rights for files/folders to
777 and owner/group to root. This mount option absorbs all other
permissions.
- Permissions change for files/folders will be reported as successful,
but they will remain 777.
- Owner/group change will be reported as successful, butthey will stay
as root.
* - nohidden
- Files with the Windows-specific HIDDEN (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN) attribute
will not be shown under Linux.
* - sys_immutable
- Files with the Windows-specific SYSTEM (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM) attribute
will be marked as system immutable files.
* - hide_dot_files
- Updates the Windows-specific HIDDEN (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN) attribute
when creating and moving or renaming files. Files whose names start
with a dot will have the HIDDEN attribute set and files whose names
do not start with a dot will have it unset.
* - windows_names
- Prevents the creation of files and directories with a name not allowed
by Windows, either because it contains some not allowed character (which
are the characters " * / : < > ? \\ | and those whose code is less than
0x20), because the name (with or without extension) is a reserved file
name (CON, AUX, NUL, PRN, LPT1-9, COM1-9) or because the last character
is a space or a dot. Existing such files can still be read and renamed.
* - discard
- Enable support of the TRIM command for improved performance on delete
operations, which is recommended for use with the solid-state drives
(SSD).
* - force
- Forces the driver to mount partitions even if volume is marked dirty.
Not recommended for use.
* - sparse
- Create new files as sparse.
* - showmeta
- Use this parameter to show all meta-files (System Files) on a mounted
NTFS partition. By default, all meta-files are hidden.
* - prealloc
- Preallocate space for files excessively when file size is increasing on
writes. Decreases fragmentation in case of parallel write operations to
different files.
* - acl
- Support POSIX ACLs (Access Control Lists). Effective if supported by
Kernel. Not to be confused with NTFS ACLs. The option specified as acl
enables support for POSIX ACLs.
Todo list
=========
- Full journaling support over JBD. Currently journal replaying is supported
which is not necessarily as effectice as JBD would be.
