Line 30:
;<tt>conv</tt>:This option specifies ''file content conversion'' semantics. It is possible for the filesystem drivers to convert the newline conventions in files, between LF termination and CRLF termination, on the fly as files are read and written. By default this conversion is entirely disabled. The filesystem drivers can perform conversion for some files, attempting to auto-detect what files to convert based upon the extension portion of the filename, or globally for all files. These three conversion levels are specified as <tt>conv=b</tt> (for "binary"), <tt>conv=a</tt> (for "auto-detect"), and <tt>conv=t</tt> (for "text"), respectively. The latter two options carry an inherent risk of corrupting non-text file data. No conversion at all is the default.<ref name="Smith1"/><ref name="Smith2"/>
== {{anchor|--LINUX-.---}}Data structures of umsdos ==
The ''umsdos'' FAT filesystem driver stores all of the extra information relating to Unix file semantics in what, to another FAT filesystem driver, appears to be just a normal file in each directory and subdirectory, named <tt>--LINUX-.---</tt>.<ref name="StanfieldSmith"/><ref name="Smith1"/><ref name="McCune"/><ref name="Smith2"/><ref name="Danesh"/>
