10 NTFS3 is fully functional NTFS Read-Write driver. The driver works with NTFS
11 versions up to 3.1. File system type to use on mount is *ntfs3*.
13 - This driver implements NTFS read/write support for normal, sparse and
15 - Supports native journal replaying.
16 - Supports NFS export of mounted NTFS volumes.
17 - Supports extended attributes. Predefined extended attributes:
19 - *system.ntfs_security* gets/sets security
21 Descriptor: SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR_RELATIVE
23 - *system.ntfs_attrib* gets/sets ntfs file/dir attributes.
25 Note: Applied to empty files, this allows to switch type between
26 sparse(0x200), compressed(0x800) and normal.
28 - *system.ntfs_attrib_be* gets/sets ntfs file/dir attributes.
30 Same value as system.ntfs_attrib but always represent as big-endian
31 (endianness of system.ntfs_attrib is the same as of the CPU).
36 The list below describes mount options supported by NTFS3 driver in addition to
37 generic ones. You can use every mount option with **no** option. If it is in
38 this table marked with no it means default is without **no**.
45 - This option informs the driver how to interpret path strings and
46 translate them to Unicode and back. If this option is not set, the
47 default codepage will be used (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT).
49 Example: iocharset=utf8
56 - Controls the default permissions for files/directories created after
57 the NTFS volume is mounted.
60 - :rspan:`1` Instead of specifying umask which applies both to files and
61 directories, fmask applies only to files and dmask only to directories.
65 - Files with the Windows-specific HIDDEN (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN) attribute
66 will not be shown under Linux.
69 - Files with the Windows-specific SYSTEM (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM) attribute
70 will be marked as system immutable files.
73 - Updates the Windows-specific HIDDEN (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN) attribute
74 when creating and moving or renaming files. Files whose names start
75 with a dot will have the HIDDEN attribute set and files whose names
76 do not start with a dot will have it unset.
79 - Prevents the creation of files and directories with a name not allowed
80 by Windows, either because it contains some not allowed character (which
81 are the characters " * / : < > ? \\ | and those whose code is less than
82 0x20), because the name (with or without extension) is a reserved file
83 name (CON, AUX, NUL, PRN, LPT1-9, COM1-9) or because the last character
84 is a space or a dot. Existing such files can still be read and renamed.
87 - Enable support of the TRIM command for improved performance on delete
88 operations, which is recommended for use with the solid-state drives
92 - Forces the driver to mount partitions even if volume is marked dirty.
93 Not recommended for use.
96 - Create new files as sparse.
99 - Use this parameter to show all meta-files (System Files) on a mounted
100 NTFS partition. By default, all meta-files are hidden.
103 - Preallocate space for files excessively when file size is increasing on
104 writes. Decreases fragmentation in case of parallel write operations to
108 - Support POSIX ACLs (Access Control Lists). Effective if supported by
109 Kernel. Not to be confused with NTFS ACLs. The option specified as acl
110 enables support for POSIX ACLs.
114 - Full journaling support over JBD. Currently journal replaying is supported
115 which is not necessarily as effectice as JBD would be.
119 - Commercial version of the NTFS driver for Linux.
