Subject: [PATCH v11 08/15] xfs: Report case sensitivity in fileattr_get
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 21:53:10 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260424-case-sensitivity-v11-8-de5619beddaf@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260424-case-sensitivity-v11-0-de5619beddaf@oracle.com>
From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
Upper layers such as NFSD need to query whether a filesystem
is case-sensitive. Add FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD to xfs_ip2xflags()
when the filesystem is formatted with the ASCIICI feature
flag. This serves both FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR (via xfs_fill_fsxattr() in
xfs_fileattr_get()) and XFS_IOC_BULKSTAT (which populates bs_xflags
directly from xfs_ip2xflags()), so bulkstat consumers and per-inode
queries see a consistent view of the filesystem's case-folding
behavior.
XFS always preserves case. XFS is case-sensitive by default, but
supports ASCII case-insensitive lookups when formatted with the
ASCIICI feature flag.
