Thank you. In V3 we'll rewrite this part alike to how its done in exfat. We also faced an issue in our encodings support tests once moved to utf8s_to_utf16s(). Had to copy the utf8s_to_utf16s() implementation from the kernel into our code, fix the issues for the problem part (also, fixed numerous sparse warnings for that code) and use the modified version. Could you please take a look there in V3 once posted, and share the feedback on do these changes to utf8s_to_utf16s() worth to be prepared separately as the patch to adapt in kernel? > Ideally check if you can store character 💩 (Pile of Poo, U+1F4A9, does > not fit into 3byte UTF-8 sequence) into filename and if there is correct > interoperability between Windows and this new ntfs3 implementation. > This is great test case. We are placing it into our set of compatibility tests.
