Subject: [PATCH v2 2/6] fat: Implement fileattr_get for case sensitivity
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2025 10:21:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251211152116.480799-3-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251211152116.480799-1-cel@kernel.org>

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

Report FAT's case sensitivity behavior via the new file_kattr
case_info field. FAT filesystems are case-insensitive and do not
preserve case at rest (stored names are uppercased).

The case folding type depends on the mount options: when utf8 is
enabled, Unicode case folding is used; otherwise ASCII case folding.
