IO_REPARSE_TAG_UNHANDLED (0x80000020), going by its name, is always an unhandled tag.IO_REPARSE_TAG_LX_SYMLINK (0xA000001D) should be an unhandled link tag, since it's used for symlinks between an NT file system and a WSL file system (e.g. "/mnt/c/etc" -> "/etc").
I looked over Microsoft's tags for ahandled tag that's not a link, but nothing stands out. I thought that OneDrive used them (i.e.IO_REPARSE_TAG_CLOUD*), but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore. I also thought the new Projected File System support would use them (i.e.IO_REPARSE_TAG_PROJFS). I built theRegFS sample to try to confirm this, and I was surprised to find that none of the virtual directories and files (keys and values) was a reparse point.
However, both OneDrive and ProjFS do make extensive use of the following new file attributes:
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_PINNED 0x00080000FILE_ATTRIBUTE_UNPINNED 0x00100000FILE_ATTRIBUTE_RECALL_ON_OPEN 0x00040000FILE_ATTRIBUTE_RECALL_ON_DATA_ACCESS 0x00400000* ntpath.realpath() and nt.stat() will traverse all supported reparse points (previously was mixed)* nt.lstat() will let the OS traverse reparse points that are not name surrogates (previously would not traverse any reparse point)* nt.[l]stat() will only set S_IFLNK for symlinks (previous behaviour)* nt.readlink() will read destinations for symlinks and junction points onlybpo-1311: os.path.exists('nul') now returns True on Windows* nt.stat('nul').st_mode is now S_IFCHR (previously was an error)miss-islington commentedAug 21, 2019
