Kernel 5.4 obtained own exfat driver, but it's not enabled currently: # grep EXFAT /boot/config-5.4.8-200.fc31.x86_64 # CONFIG_EXFAT_FS is not set It should be good alternative to exfat-fuse for this popular FS.
Still absent for 5.4.15-200.fc31: # grep EXFAT /boot/config-5.4.15-200.fc31.x86_64 # CONFIG_EXFAT_FS is not set
The exfat driver will be enabled when it is promoted from staging.
Latest news tell that current driver will be removed: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Staging-exFAT-Nuking-5.7
EXFAT is enabled here: $ grep CONFIG_EXFAT lib/modules/5.7.0-0.rc7.1.fc33.x86_64/config # extracted from kernel-core-5.7.0-0.rc7.1.fc33.x86_64.rpm CONFIG_EXFAT_FS=m CONFIG_EXFAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="utf8" kernel-5.7.0-0.rc7.1.fc33 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2020-173e34c496
This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '31'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 31 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
I see exfat module in stock Fedora 33 kernel, so closing the ticket: /lib/modules/5.8.16-300.fc33.x86_64/kernel/fs/exfat/exfat.ko.xz
