NTFS - list of things to do in no particular order: - handle Unicode chars more inteligently - currently only iso-8859-1 chars are supported, it should be possible to get the filename converted into koi-8, iso-8859-2 & utf-8 at least - there is some Unicode support present under FreeBSD, would be worth considering for adoption (it's needed to properly support Juliet CDs anyway) FreeBSD info: http://triaez.kaisei.org/~mzaki/joliet/ * not very hard - better support for writing; tricky is crash recovery - cleanup the mess with several *readattr*() functions if possible - ntfs_ntvattrget(): find out if it's worth the efford to use some hashing for the list of ntnodes, so that it's not all scanned each time; it would be fine to migrate the found ntnode towards the start of the list too; the list search code is duplicated on two places, eliminate the duplicity somehow - convert the code to do caching in buffer cache indexed by file-vnode/file-offset so that NTFS would take advantage of UBC; it should also improve performance somewhat, because if it's necessary to find some offset in a file, it's possible to check if the data are available in the cache before doing the bmap operation first (from Chuq) - working VOP_BALLOC() (new in UBC) (from Chuq) - implement writing into resident attributes, so it would be possible to write into "small" files (<30KB) too (from Semen Ustimenko ) - support mount update - really implement sync - write necessary bits to support NTFS in libsa
