coccinelle: alloc_cast: drop removed allocatorsgrafted
- pci_alloc_consistent() and pci_zalloc_consistent() were removed by
commit 7968778914e5
("PCI: Remove the deprecated "pci-dma-compat.h" API")
- kmem_alloc() was removed by commit f078d4ea8276
("xfs: convert kmem_alloc() to kmalloc()")
- kmem_zalloc() was removed by commit 10634530f7ba
("xfs: convert kmem_zalloc() to kzalloc()")
- kmem_zone_alloc() and kmem_zone_zalloc() were removed by commit
bae633a4a283 ("xfs: remove xfs_zone_{alloc,zalloc} helpers")
So drop them from the rules.
No functional change.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +================================= +The Linux NTFS filesystem driver +================================= + + +.. Table of contents + + - Overview + - Utilities support + - Supported mount options + + +Overview +======== + +NTFS is a Linux kernel filesystem driver that provides full read and write +support for NTFS volumes. It is designed for high performance, modern +kernel infrastructure (iomap, folio), and stable long-term maintenance. + + +Utilities support +================= + +The NTFS utilities project, called ntfsprogs-plus, provides mkfs.ntfs, +fsck.ntfs, and other related tools (e.g., ntfsinfo, ntfsclone, etc.) for +creating, checking, and managing NTFS volumes. These utilities can be used +for filesystem testing with xfstests as well as for recovering corrupted +NTFS devices. + +The project is available at: + + https://github.com/ntfsprogs-plus/ntfsprogs-plus + + +Supported mount options +======================= + +The NTFS driver supports the following mount options: + +======================= ==================================================== +iocharset=name Character set to use for converting between + the encoding is used for user visible filename and + 16 bit Unicode characters. + +nls=name Deprecated option. Still supported but please use + iocharset=name in the future. + +uid= +gid= +umask= Provide default owner, group, and access mode mask. + These options work as documented in mount(8). By + default, the files/directories are owned by root + and he/she has read and write permissions, as well + as browse permission for directories. No one else + has any access permissions. I.e. the mode on all + files is by default rw------- and + for directories rwx------, a consequence of + the default fmask=0177 and dmask=0077. + Using a umask of zero will grant all permissions to + everyone, i.e. all files and directories will have + mode rwxrwxrwx. + +fmask= +dmask= Instead of specifying umask which applies both to + files and directories, fmask applies only to files + and dmask only to directories. + +showmeta=<BOOL> +show_sys_files=<BOOL> If show_sys_files is specified, show the system + files in directory listings. Otherwise the default + behaviour is to hide the system files. + Note that even when show_sys_files is specified, + "$MFT" will not be visible due to bugs/mis-features + in glibc. Further, note that irrespective of + show_sys_files, all files are accessible by name, + i.e. you can always do "ls -l \$UpCase" for example + to specifically show the system file containing + the Unicode upcase table. + +case_sensitive=<BOOL> If case_sensitive is specified, treat all filenames + as case sensitive and create file names in + the POSIX namespace (default behavior). Note, + the Linux NTFS driver will never create short + filenames and will remove them on rename/delete of + the corresponding long file name. Note that files + remain accessible via their short file name, if it + exists. + +nocase=<BOOL> If nocase is specified, treat filenames + case-insensitively. + +disable_sparse=<BOOL> If disable_sparse is specified, creation of sparse + regions, i.e. holes, inside files is disabled for + the volume (for the duration of this mount only). + By default, creation of sparse regions is enabled, + which is consistent with the behaviour of + traditional Unix filesystems. + +errors=opt Specify NTFS behavior on critical errors: panic, + remount the partition in read-only mode or + continue without doing anything (default behavior). + +mft_zone_multiplier= Set the MFT zone multiplier for the volume (this + setting is not persistent across mounts and can be + changed from mount to mount but cannot be changed + on remount). Values of 1 to 4 are allowed, 1 being + the default. The MFT zone multiplier determines + how much space is reserved for the MFT on the + volume. If all other space is used up, then the + MFT zone will be shrunk dynamically, so this has no + impact on the amount of free space. However, it + can have an impact on performance by affecting + fragmentation of the MFT. In general use the + default. If you have a lot of small files then use + a higher value. The values have the following + meaning: + + ===== ================================= + Value MFT zone size (% of volume size) + ===== ================================= + 1 12.5% + 2 25% + 3 37.5% + 4 50% + ===== ================================= + + Note this option is irrelevant for read-only mount. + +preallocated_size= Set preallocated size to optimize runlist merge + overhead with small chunck size.(64KB size by + default) + +acl=<BOOL> Enable POSIX ACL support. When specified, POSIX + ACLs stored in extended attributes are enforced. + Default is off. Requires kernel config + NTFS_FS_POSIX_ACL enabled. + +sys_immutable=<BOOL> Make NTFS system files (e.g. $MFT, $LogFile, + $Bitmap, $UpCase, etc.) immutable to user initiated + modifications for extra safety. Default is off. + +nohidden=<BOOL> Hide files and directories marked with the Windows + "hidden" attribute. By default hidden items are + shown. + +hide_dot_files=<BOOL> Hide names beginning with a dot ("."). By default + dot files are shown. When enabled, files and + directories created with a leading '.' will be + hidden from directory listings. + +windows_names=<BOOL> Refuse creation/rename of files with characters or + reserved device names disallowed on Windows (e.g. + CON, NUL, AUX, COM1, LPT1, etc.). Default is off. +discard=<BOOL> Issue block device discard for clusters freed on + file deletion/truncation to inform underlying + storage. + +native_symlink=raw|rel Configure how absolute symbolic links and mount + points (junctions) are handled. Under "raw" + (default), the absolute target path is returned + as-is without translation. Under "rel", it is + rewritten as a relative path anchored at + the volume root. + +symlink=wsl|native Configure how symbolic links are created. Under + "wsl" (default), WSL (Windows Subsystem for + Linux) compatible symlinks are created. Under + "native", Windows native symbolic links are + created. +======================= ==================================================== |
