Subject: [PATCH v4 01/16] fs: Add case sensitivity info to file_kattr
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2026 09:28:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260114142900.3945054-2-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260114142900.3945054-1-cel@kernel.org>

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

Enable upper layers such as NFSD to retrieve case sensitivity
information from file systems by adding case_insensitive and
case_nonpreserving boolean fields to struct file_kattr.

These fields default to false (POSIX semantics: case-sensitive and
case-preserving), allowing filesystems to set them only when
behavior differs from the default.
