Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 01/28] fs/ntfs3: Modified fix directory element type detection
Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2024 19:21:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240213002235.671934-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Konstantin Komarov <almaz.alexandrovich@paragon-software.com>

[ Upstream commit 22457c047ed971f2f2e33be593ddfabd9639a409 ]

Unfortunately reparse attribute is used for many purposes (several dozens).
It is not possible here to know is this name symlink or not.
To get exactly the type of name we should to open inode (read mft).
getattr for opened file (fstat) correctly returns symlink.
