Note: the driver was merged to the upstream kernel in 5.15. So this package is useless for Arch official kernels.
If you want bleeding edge updates, use ntfs3-dkms-git.

I made some test using bonnie and pts, this driver seems to be much faster than ntfs-3g

(disregard the read tests, since they were done from page cache)

edit: compilebench in pts, now includes native ext4, the paragon ntfs3 driver performance is comparable

@Hanabishi I have created symlinks from within Linux. Can you test it $ file /path/to/symlink

Hanabishi commented on 2020-10-21 08:08 (UTC)

@babam, it works.
The only problem is links created in Windows have incorrect path in Linux because of the separator difference (\ instead of /), or if it is absolute (like C:\).

babam commented on 2020-10-21 07:53 (UTC)

Symbolic link doesn't work.

@galeksandrp, idk, it should work. Try to force rules reload or maybe reboot the whole system.

For anyone who encountered not working SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="ntfs", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}="ntfs3" udev rule: your rule should be loaded after /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-*.rules. To achieve this, number in your rule filename should be 61 or higher.

Found issues (in version v8.0.0)

  1. "Inode" copy not working, therefore copying file to another location on same filesystem results is real byte transfer.

@babam, using Arch + experimental patches from AUR is definitely not the best choice for stability and important data handling :)

babam commented on 2020-09-28 11:03 (UTC)

ntfs-3g is slow but very stable and safe. I am afraid that the Paragon will destroy my important data.

pekmop1024 commented on 2020-09-20 13:11 (UTC)

found interesting bug: all folders created in Linux have system and hidden flags from Windows point of view. Tried different mount options, including no options at all, without any luck.

Hanabishi commented on 2020-09-18 13:48 (UTC)

@pekmop1024, well, tested this with LTS, got the same error. So backporting requires source code modification.

pekmop1024 commented on 2020-09-18 11:00 (UTC)

@Hanabishi, just using LTS temporarily due to intel graphics issues in newer kernels :(
