The kernel has no visibility into + the locale settings in userspace, so it corrupts UTF-8 names. + Enabling this feature makes XFS vulnerable to mixed case sensitivity + attacks. Because of this, the feature is deprecated. All users + should upgrade by backing up their files, reformatting, and restoring + from the backup. + + Administrators and users can detect such a filesystem by running + xfs_info against a filesystem mountpoint and checking for a string + beginning with "ascii-ci=". If the string "ascii-ci=1" is found, the + filesystem is a case-insensitive filesystem. If no such string is + found, please upgrade xfsprogs to the latest version and try again. + + This option will become default N in September 2025. Support for the + feature will be removed entirely in September 2030.
