Hi, Doing xattr related things on macOS via NTFS-3G occasionally fail with a cryptic message mentioning ENODATA. Things that trigger it range from Finder's everyday operations and, when xattr security is enabled, every single access.[1]
[1]: https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse/issues/704 I did a bit of investigating into this issue, and it seems that the likely cause is that NTFS-3G is returning ENODATA instead of ENOATTR for the xattr operations. This is fine on Linux where they are the same errno, but on many other systems this is not the case. To fix this issue, an entry for ENOATTR should be added to compat.h. The ea.c stuff should be modified to return ENOATTR instead of ENODATA, and some other uses of ENODATA should be checked for appropriateness. The version info is "ntfs-3g 2017.3.23 external FUSE 29". I think I have AR.5 installed, since that's what I used to override homebrew's normal version installation. My life is a mess right now, so I am not sure if I will find the time to patch it. -- Mingye Wang (Artoria2e5) _______________________________________________ ntfs-3g-devel mailing list ntfs-3g-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ntfs-3g-devel
