Good catch, thanks!

We did not notice, because we have ntfs3 blacklisted in openSUSE Tumbleweed:

cat /etc/modprobe.d/60-blacklist_fs-ntfs3.conf
# The ntfs3 file system is blacklisted by default because it isn't actively
# supported by SUSE.
blacklist ntfs3
# The filesystem can be un-blacklisted by running "modprobe ntfs3".
# See README.md in the suse-module-tools package for details.
install ntfs3 /usr/lib/module-init-tools/unblacklist ntfs3; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ntfs3

Therefore it works:
# ./file_attr05

But if I force ntfs, it really fails due using ntfs3:

Other way is if I remove blacklist and manually run 'modprobe ntfs3'.

For me it'd work to replace "fuse" with "ntfs" (i.e. remove "fuse").
Does it work for you as well, or you need to have blacklisted both?

Also it looks to me that vfat is working.

Kind regards,
