Case-insensitive filesystems like exFAT, and\ncasefolded directories on ext4 or f2fs, have no way to signal\ntheir actual semantics to SMB clients.\n\nNow that filesystems expose case behavior through ->fileattr_get,\nquery it via vfs_fileattr_get() and translate the FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD\nand FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING flags into the corresponding SMB\nattributes. Filesystems without ->fileattr_get continue reporting\ndefault POSIX behavior (case-sensitive, case-preserving).\n\nSMB's FS_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION reports per-share attributes from\nthe share root, not per-file. Shares mixing casefold and\nnon-casefold directories report the root directory's behavior.\n\nAcked-by: Namjae Jeon \nReviewed-by: Roland Mainz \nSigned-off-by: Chuck Lever \n---\n fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------\n 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)","diff":"diff --git a/fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c b/fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c\nindex ee32e61b6d3c..face5390c614 100644\n--- a/fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c\n+++ b/fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c\n@@ -14,6 +14,7 @@\n #include \n #include \n #include \n+#include \n \n #include \"glob.h\"\n #include \"smbfsctl.h\"\n@@ -5541,16 +5542,33 @@ static int smb2_get_info_filesystem(struct ksmbd_work *work,\n \tcase FS_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION:\n \t{\n \t\tFILE_SYSTEM_ATTRIBUTE_INFO *info;\n+\t\tstruct file_kattr fa = {};\n \t\tsize_t sz;\n+\t\tu32 attrs;\n+\t\tint err;\n \n \t\tinfo = (FILE_SYSTEM_ATTRIBUTE_INFO *)rsp->Buffer;\n-\t\tinfo->Attributes = cpu_to_le32(FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS |\n-\t\t\t\t\t FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS |\n-\t\t\t\t\t FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK |\n-\t\t\t\t\t FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES |\n-\t\t\t\t\t FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH |\n-\t\t\t\t\t FILE_SUPPORTS_BLOCK_REFCOUNTING);\n+\t\tattrs = FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS |\n+\t\t\tFILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS |\n+\t\t\tFILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK |\n+\t\t\tFILE_SUPPORTS_BLOCK_REFCOUNTING;\n \n+\t\terr = vfs_fileattr_get(path.dentry, &fa);\n+\t\t/*\n+\t\t * -EINVAL: ntfs-3g and other FUSE filesystems that lack\n+\t\t * FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR support.\n+\t\t */\n+\t\tif (err && err != -ENOIOCTLCMD && err != -ENOTTY &&\n+\t\t err != -EINVAL) {\n+\t\t\tpath_put(&path);\n+\t\t\treturn err;\n+\t\t}\n+\t\tif (!(fa.fsx_xflags & FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD))\n+\t\t\tattrs |= FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH;\n+\t\tif (!(fa.fsx_xflags & FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING))\n+\t\t\tattrs |= FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES;\n+\n+\t\tinfo->Attributes = cpu_to_le32(attrs);\n \t\tinfo->Attributes |= cpu_to_le32(server_conf.share_fake_fscaps);\n \n \t\tif (test_share_config_flag(work->tcon->share_conf,\n","prefixes":["v11","15/15"]}
