+=====
+NTFS3
+=====
+
+
+Summary and Features
+====================
+
+NTFS3 is fully functional NTFS Read-Write driver. The driver works with
+NTFS versions up to 3.1, normal/compressed/sparse files
+and journal replaying. File system type to use on mount is 'ntfs3'.
+
+- This driver implements NTFS read/write support for normal, sparsed and
+ compressed files.
+ NOTE: Operations with compressed files require increased memory consumption;
+- Supports native journal replaying;
+- Supports extended attributes;
+- Supports NFS export of mounted NTFS volumes.
+
+Mount Options
+=============
+
+The list below describes mount options supported by NTFS3 driver in addtion to
+generic ones.
+
+===============================================================================
+
+nls=name These options inform the driver how to interpret path
+ strings and translate them to Unicode and back. In case
+ none of these options are set, or if specified codepage
+ doesn't exist on the system, the default codepage will be
+ used (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT).
+ Examples:
+ 'nls=utf8'
+
+uid=
+gid=
+umask= Controls the default permissions for files/directories created
+ after the NTFS volume is mounted.
+
+fmask=
+dmask= Instead of specifying umask which applies both to
+ files and directories, fmask applies only to files and
+ dmask only to directories.
+
+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 'dirty' flag
+ (volume dirty) is set. 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.
+
+no_acs_rules "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, but
+ they will stay as root
+
+===============================================================================
+
+
+ToDo list
+=========
+
+- Full journaling support (currently journal replaying is supported) over JBD.

+ Windows OS native file system (NTFS) support up to NTFS version 3.1.
+
+ Y or M enables the NTFS3 driver with full features enabled (read,

+ File system type to use on mount is "ntfs3". Module name (M option)

+ Windows implementation of ntfs.sys uses 32 bits per clusters.
+ If activated 64 bits per clusters you will be able to use 4k cluster
+ for 16T+ volumes. Windows will not be able to mount such volumes.
+
+ It is recommended to say N here.
