Hunt gchunt@cs.rochester.edu and +lightly annotated by Gordon Chaffee. + +This document presents a very rough, technical overview of my +knowledge of the extended FAT file system used in Windows NT 3.5 and +Windows 95. I don't guarantee that any of the following is correct, +but it appears to be so. + +The extended FAT file system is almost identical to the FAT +file system used in DOS versions up to and including *6.223410239847* +:-). The significant change has been the addition of long file names. +These names support up to 255 characters including spaces and lower +case characters as opposed to the traditional 8.3 short names. + +Here is the description of the traditional FAT entry in the current +Windows 95 filesystem:: + + struct directory { // Short 8.3 names + unsigned char name[8]; // file name + unsigned char ext[3]; // file extension + unsigned char attr; // attribute byte + unsigned char lcase; // Case for base and extension + unsigned char ctime_ms; // Creation time, milliseconds + unsigned char ctime[2]; // Creation time + unsigned char cdate[2]; // Creation date + unsigned char adate[2]; // Last access date + unsigned char reserved[2]; // reserved values (ignored) + unsigned char time[2]; // time stamp + unsigned char date[2]; // date stamp + unsigned char start[2]; // starting cluster number + unsigned char size[4]; // size of the file + }; + + +The lcase field specifies if the base and/or the extension of an 8.3 +name should be capitalized. This field does not seem to be used by +Windows 95 but it is used by Windows NT. The case of filenames is not +completely compatible from Windows NT to Windows 95. It is not completely +compatible in the reverse direction, however. Filenames that fit in +the 8.3 namespace and are written on Windows NT to be lowercase will +show up as uppercase on Windows 95. + +.. note:: Note that the ``start`` and ``size`` values are actually little + endian integer values. The descriptions of the fields in this + structure are public knowledge and can be found elsewhere. + +With the extended FAT system, Microsoft has inserted extra +directory entries for any files with extended names. (Any name which +legally fits within the old 8.3 encoding scheme does not have extra +entries.) I call these extra entries slots. Basically, a slot is a +specially formatted directory entry which holds up to 13 characters of +a file's extended name. Think of slots as additional labeling for the +directory entry of the file to which they correspond. Microsoft +prefers to refer to the 8.3 entry for a file as its alias and the +extended slot directory entries as the file name. + +The C structure for a slot directory entry follows:: + + struct slot { // Up to 13 characters of a long name + unsigned char id; // sequence number for slot + unsigned char name0_4[10]; // first 5 characters in name + unsigned char attr; // attribute byte + unsigned char reserved; // always 0 + unsigned char alias_checksum; // checksum for 8.3 alias + unsigned char name5_10[12]; // 6 more characters in name + unsigned char start[2]; // starting cluster number + unsigned char name11_12[4]; // last 2 characters in name + }; + + +If the layout of the slots looks a little odd, it's only +because of Microsoft's efforts to maintain compatibility with old +software. The slots must be disguised to prevent old software from +panicking. To this end, a number of measures are taken: + + 1) The attribute byte for a slot directory entry is always set + to 0x0f. This corresponds to an old directory entry with + attributes of "hidden", "system", "read-only", and "volume + label". Most old software will ignore any directory + entries with the "volume label" bit set. Real volume label + entries don't have the other three bits set. + + 2) The starting cluster is always set to 0, an impossible + value for a DOS file. + +Because the extended FAT system is backward compatible, it is +possible for old software to modify directory entries. Measures must +be taken to ensure the validity of slots. An extended FAT system can +verify that a slot does in fact belong to an 8.3 directory entry by +the following: + + 1) Positioning. Slots for a file always immediately proceed + their corresponding 8.3 directory entry. In addition, each + slot has an id which marks its order in the extended file + name. Here is a very abbreviated view of an 8.3 directory + entry and its corresponding long name slots for the file + "My Big File.Extension which is long":: + + + + + + + + + .. note:: Note that the slots are stored from last to first. Slots + are numbered from 1 to N. The Nth slot is ``or'ed`` with + 0x40 to mark it as the last one. + + 2) Checksum. Each slot has an alias_checksum value. The + checksum is calculated from the 8.3 name using the + following algorithm:: + + for (sum = i = 0; i < 11; i++) { + sum = (((sum&1)<<7)|((sum&0xfe)>>1)) + name[i] + } + + + 3) If there is free space in the final slot, a Unicode ``NULL (0x0000)`` + is stored after the final character. After that, all unused + characters in the final slot are set to Unicode 0xFFFF. + +Finally, note that the extended name is stored in Unicode. Each Unicode +character takes either two or four bytes, UTF-16LE encoded. diff --git a/Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt b/Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 91031298beb1..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,347 +0,0 @@ -USING VFAT ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -To use the vfat filesystem, use the filesystem type 'vfat'. i.e. - mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt - -No special partition formatter is required. mkdosfs will work fine -if you want to format from within Linux. - -VFAT MOUNT OPTIONS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -uid=### -- Set the owner of all files on this filesystem. - The default is the uid of current process. - -gid=### -- Set the group of all files on this filesystem. - The default is the gid of current process. - -umask=### -- The permission mask (for files and directories, see umask(1)). - The default is the umask of current process. - -dmask=### -- The permission mask for the directory. - The default is the umask of current process. - -fmask=### -- The permission mask for files. - The default is the umask of current process. - -allow_utime=### -- This option controls the permission check of mtime/atime. - - 20 - If current process is in group of file's group ID, - you can change timestamp. - 2 - Other users can change timestamp. - - The default is set from `dmask' option.
