Subject[PATCH] Added CONFIG_VFAT_FS_DUALNAMES option
From
This is a new patch for VFAT long filename support, replacing the one
that I posted last month. It retains a lot more functionality then the
previous patch.

A FAQ will be posted immediately after this patch to answer the
questions that were raised from the previous discussion.

Cheers, Tridge


------------

When VFAT_FS_DUALNAMES is disabled we avoid the creation of 8.3 short
filenames for files on VFAT filesystems that require a long name. The
patch uses a pattern of 11 bytes in the directory entry which contains
invalid characters such that it cannot be considered to be a valid short
filename.

+ help
+ This option provides support for dual filenames on VFAT filesystems.
+ If this option is disabled then file creation will either put
+ a short (8.3) name or a long name on the file, but never both.
+ The field where a shortname would normally go is filled with
+ invalid characters such that it cannot be considered a valid
+ short filename.
+
+ That means that long filenames created with this option
+ disabled will not be accessible at all to operating systems
+ that do not understand the VFAT extensions.
+
+ Users considering enabling this option should consider the implications
+ of any patents that may exist on dual filenames in VFAT.
+
+ If unsure, say N
