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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
* - 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.
