Yes, UTF-16 should be used to indicate the change to UCS-2 to allow 4 byte encoding of some characters. Currently with your patch we have partial support for UTF-16 in cifs.ko, but most cifs (and smb2/smb3) servers presumably support UTF-16 now on the wire. >> We could really use some nls test cases for cifs/smb2/smb3/nfs4 which >> basically did various file, directory, symlink create/rename/delete >> operations with various hard to map characters so we can test copying >> to and from the server and ensure that we get the name mappings right >> for these (and don't ever regress).
