Hello, Please test the binaries. The NFSv4.2/4.1 client is for Windows 10/11 AMD64+x86 and Windows Server 2019+2022/AMD64, but interoperability feedback with NFSv4.1/NFSv4.2 servers based on Linux 6.6+ LTS and 6.14+ would be great. News: See announcement below, copy-by-block-cloning is IMO the most interesting new feature, because it's "on" by default for all Windows 11 applications which copy files Thanks, Martin ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Roland Mainz <roland.mainz@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, May 14, 2025 at 8:49 PM Subject: [Ms-nfs41-client-devel] ANN: NFSv4.2/NFSv4.1 filesystem client Windows driver binaries for Windows 10/11+WindowsServer 2019/2022 for testing, 2025-05-14 ... To: <ms-nfs41-client-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi! ---- We've created a set of test binaries for the NFSv4.2/NFSv4.1 filesystem client driver for Windows 10 (32+64bit), Windows 11+Windows Server 2019/2022 (64bit), based on https://github.com/kofemann/ms-nfs41-client (commit id #0dc698b9c563c7958a52862ed10d0758f3522fb3, git bundle in tarball), for testing and feedback. ** FULL release readme: - http://www.nrubsig.org/people/gisburn/work/msnfs41client/releases/testing/msnfs41client_cygwin_64bit32bit_binaries_20250514_20h00m_git0dc698b.readme ** Download URL: - http://www.nrubsig.org/people/gisburn/work/msnfs41client/releases/testing/msnfs41client_cygwin_64bit32bit_binaries_20250514_20h00m_git0dc698b.tar.bz2 ** Major changes since the last release: - Support for FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE, which allows Windows 11 applications which use |CopyFile2()| (like cmd.exe copy, xcopy.exe etc) to copy files via block cloning. Requires NFSv4.2 NFS server with { CLONE, SEEK, DEALLOCATE } support, exporting a filesystem which supports block cloning (e.g. btrfs, xfs). This includes correct cloning of sparse files. - Sparse file support (requires NFSv4.2 server { SEEK, ALLOCATE, DEALLOCATE } and the |FATTR4_WORD1_SPACE_USED| attr), including hole/data range enumeration, punching holes etc., e.g. $ fsutil sparse queryrange mysparsefile # - Improved Windows Extended Attribute (EA) support (requires NFS >= v4.1 server with "Named Attribute" support ("OPENATTR")), including create/read/write/delete - Improved WSL support - Support for Storage32-API (e.g. enables use of *.msi installer files on NFS filesystems) - Cygwin /usr/bin/svn and Windows '/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Git/cmd/git' now work - Illumos NFSv4.2 server is now supported - Solaris 11.4 NFSv4.1 server is now supported - Windows Server 2022 NFSv4.1 server is now supported (compared to WS2019 this NFS server version has ACL support) ** Please send comments, bugs, test reports, complaints etc. to the MailMan mailing list at https://sourceforge.net/projects/ms-nfs41-client/lists/ms-nfs41-client-devel ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz@xxxxxxxxxxx \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ Ms-nfs41-client-devel mailing list Ms-nfs41-client-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ms-nfs41-client-devel
