Arch Linux User Repository

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

2021-10-5 When the kernel is upgraded to 5.14.9-2-ARCH, it is working normally.

2021-9-30 It should be a system problem, I can only wait for the system to update later.

There was a problem with the upgrade, and even if reuse the pull source build, still reported an error.

@Hanabishi my bad, I was actually still on the previous pkgrel, thanks for maintaing this.

@BachoSeven, can't reproduce. Ensure you are using the latest package version.

Anyway, I see the problem. Latest changes were actually for 5.15. Fixed, made a disctinct patch from it.

@Ranguvar, the main patch in prepare() applies regardless of kernel version. Maybe you mean backport patches applied in dkms.conf? You can't build the package itself or dkms build fails?

Fails to build against 5.14.1.

Some of the patches in prepare() seem to fail.

27.0.0-2 still works well.

@Hanabishi Nice,now can be used normally.

@hianghokung, fixed.

I have the following error report and it is not working properly now. Ask for help.
