Replace old NTFS-3G with NTFS3 #3160

Closed libboj closed 2 months ago

libboj commented 2 months ago

Hello,

Clear Linux is currently using the userspace NTFS-3G for NTFS drives, but it is no longer updated (https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g) and is slower than Paragon Software's NTFS3 kernel module.

Can the Clear team to enable NTFS3_FS, NTFS3_LZX_XPRESSand NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL in their native kernel please ?

Thanks

Extract from the XanMod configs, if helpful.

https://github.com/xanmod/linux/tree/6.9/CONFIGS/xanmod/gcc

CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m
# CONFIG_NTFS3_64BIT_CLUSTER is not set
CONFIG_NTFS3_LZX_XPRESS=y
CONFIG_NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL=y

Because you guys do awesome QA, you may have caught that release 42040 NTFS3 is not enabled in the config (extracted linux-6.9.9-1448.src.rpm) even though mentioned in the release notes.

there are many things we test. NTFS is not one of those.

I'll check

Can you give us a date for when it's going to be usable ?

bwarden commented 2 months ago

Will be in https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/linux/releases/tag/6.9.9-1449 or later -- this should update when it's actually released.
