Ah, good point. Sorry, I was looking my tree. I'm going to submit the
attached patch on next merge window.

Is this enough for it?

Thanks.

With utf8 option, vfat allowed the duplicated filenames.

Normal nls returns -EINVAL for invalid char. But utf8s_to_utf16s()
skipped the invalid char historically.

So, this changes the utf8s_to_utf16s() directly to return -EINVAL for
invalid char, because vfat is only user of it.


mkdir /mnt/fatfs
FILENAME=`echo -ne "invalidutf8char_\\0341_endofchar"`
echo "Using filename: $FILENAME"
dd if=/dev/zero of=fatfs bs=512 count=128
mkdosfs -F 32 fatfs
mount -o loop,utf8 fatfs /mnt/fatfs
touch "/mnt/fatfs/$FILENAME"
umount /mnt/fatfs
mount -o loop,utf8 fatfs /mnt/fatfs
touch "/mnt/fatfs/$FILENAME"
ls -l /mnt/fatfs
umount /mnt/fatfs

---- And the output is:

Using filename: invalidutf8char_\0341_endofchar
