Subject: [patch 0/2] HFS+: custom dentry hash and comparison operations
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 01:06:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070620000644.891099313@dastardly.home.dghda.com> (raw)
The HFS+ filesystem is case-insensitive and does automatic unicode
decomposition by default, but does not provide custom dentry
operations. This can lead to multiple dentries being cached for lookups
on a filename with varying case and/or character (de)composition.
These patches add custom dentry hash and comparison operations for
case-sensitive and/or automatically decomposing HFS+ filesystems.
Unicode decomposition and case-folding are performed as required to
ensure equivalent filenames are hashed to the same values and compare
as equal.
Tested on i386, x86_64 and PPC.
See bug reports here for more information:

Cheers,
Duane Griffin.
