NTFSPLUS-DKMS

---

Introduction

There is a new Linux driver for NTFS called ntfsplus submitted by Namjae Jeon on 2025/10/20.

This repo contains the out-of-tree kernel module for ntfsplus and the patches to:

• Make it DKMS
• Backport it to 6.12
• Build AUR package

The AUR package is available at ntfsplus-dkms-git

Quickstart

Clone this repository and

makepkg -si

and there you go.

Development

Setup source code

1. Clone linux kernel.
2. Apply this and this patches
3. Apply the patches in the current repo
4. Sync source with OOT module

Status

Currently supports 6.12+ only.

I've made a testsuite and run tests and suprisingly it works on 6.12.

TODOs

• Rewrite ntfs_iomap.c to implement ntfs_map_blocks for kernels older than 6.17
• Backport to LTS kernels
• Port the package to Debian
• Port the package to RedHat distros
