>One of the most prominent changes with the upcoming Linux 7.1 kernel release is the introduction of the new NTFS driver in the Linux 7.1 kernel. This new driver provides more features and better performance than the Paragon NTFS3 driver that's been in the kernel the past few years and far better off than the original NTFS read-only driver that previously was in the kernel and for which this new driver is based. Needless to say it's also a big improvement over the NTFS-3G user-space FUSE driver too. This new and modern NTFS driver successfully made it to the mainline kernel after years of work by kernel developer Namjae Jeon. Following that "NTFS resurrection" there was an initial batch of fixes last week given the increased exposure now to this file-system driver. Similarly, this week another batch of fixes were ready to land thanks to the uptick in usage as well as code fuzzing/testing now that the driver is in mainline.
