36
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -0500372002-02-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'ob9f40922002-02-24 03:08:57 -050038
39 * Makefile.in (install): Install hard links for man pages for
40 mkfs.ext2 and mkfs.ext3. Also install hard link for
41 mkfs.ext3. Remove any compressed man pages before
42 installing the man pages.
43

47
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -0500482002-02-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o7d4343d2002-02-12 02:34:44 -050049
50 * get_device_by_label.c: Since on non-STDC compilers, we define
51 away const, include get_device_by_label.h after we include
52 fsck.h.
53
54 * Makefile.in (base_device): Remove use of $<, which is
55 non-portable.
56
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500572002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>

612002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5599c2f2002-02-03 00:08:52 -050062
63 * fsck.c (interpret_type): Allow filesystems types of the form
64 "ext3,ext2", etc.
65
66 * fstype.c (identify_fs): Add support for only searching for a
67 specified list of filesystems. Also add support for
68 identifying reiserfs filesystems.
69
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500702002-01-29 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa1069112002-01-29 12:49:14 -050071
72 * fsck.c: Allow the number of outstanding processes fs-specific
73 fsck programs to be capped via the FSCK_MAX_INST
74 envrionment variable.
75
76 * fsck.8.in: Document all of the environment variables used by fsck.
77
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500782002-01-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o177ab2b2002-01-27 18:23:49 -050079
80 * tune2fs.8.in: Document the -f flag to tune2fs.
81
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500822002-01-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5493a272002-01-02 14:15:35 -050083
84 * badblocks.c (main): Open the device as O_RDWR if possible, since
85 fsync() isn't guaranteed to work if the filesystem is
86 opened read-only.
87
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500882001-12-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'od4de4aa2001-12-26 08:58:01 -050089
90 * tune2fs.8.in, tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options, main): Add
91 support for new option, -T, which allows the user to set
92 the last checked time on the filesystem.
93
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500942001-12-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -050095
Theodore Ts'o3ed57c22001-12-24 15:01:59 -050096 * mke2fs.c (main, test_disk): If two -c options are
97 specified, then perform a destructive read/write test
98 of the disk.
99
100 * mke2fs.8.in: Document the double -c option; also encourage users
101 to use -c instead of the -l/-L options since it's too hard
102 for users to get things like the blocksize parameter correct.
103
104 * badblocks.8.in: Encourage users to use the -c option in mke2fs
105 and e2fsck instead of running badblocks directly.
106
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -0500107 * mke2fs.c (create_lost_and_found): The lost+found directory is
108 now created with 0700 permissions, since files which get
109 dropped into that directory may have come from a protected
110 directory, and the system administrator may not deal with
111 immediately. (Addresses Debian bug #118443)
112
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001132001-12-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o19007e52001-12-23 19:33:51 -0500114
115 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: Move linux/jbd.h to
116 ext2fs/kernel-jbd.h, to avoid using the system header
117 file version of hbd.h when using diet glibc (since it
118 forcibly adds /usr/include to the beginning of the
119 include search path.)
120
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001212001-12-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oeaf4dc52001-12-22 00:04:22 -0500122
123 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Add support to read out
124 information from the LVM proc hierarchy, so that the UUID
125 cache can search the LVM logical volumes for UUID's,
126 labels, etc.
127
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001282001-12-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o0655b102001-12-21 23:59:46 -0500129
130 * dumpe2fs.c (list_bad_blocks): Change to not die if the listing
131 of the bad blocks can't be found. Slimmed down dumpe2fs
132 by eliminating duplicate code paths.
133
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001342001-12-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

Theodore Ts'o4ea7bd02001-12-16 23:23:37 -0500136 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc), fsck.c (fs_match),
137 get_device_by_label.c (get_label_uuid),
138 mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults, zap_sector, PRS),
139 tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device, update_feature_set),
140 util.c (figure_journal_size), util.h: Fix gcc -Wall nits.
141
142 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Fix gcc -Wall nits, and use
143 the stashed inode functions to optimize away system calls.
144
Theodore Ts'o8cf93332001-12-16 02:23:36 -0500145 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: linux/jfs.h has been renamed to
146 linux/jbd.h
147
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001482001-12-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa5f0bb92001-12-02 19:29:35 +0100149
150 * dumpe2fs.c: Don't print the offset to the bitmap and inode table
151 if it's negative. Also did some generalized code clean up
152 to slim it down the support of the -x option.
153
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001542001-11-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa36cf922001-11-24 16:13:49 -0500155
156 * e2image.8.in: Fix cut-and-paste typo (Addresses Debian bug
157 #119624)
158
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001592001-11-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6ef39202001-11-13 18:49:09 -0500160
161 * util.c (check_plausibility): Use stat64 if available so that
162 check_plausibility() works with files > 2GB.
163
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001642001-11-05 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500165
Theodore Ts'ob3f5b4c2001-11-05 19:22:02 -0500166 * chattr.1.in: Update the man page to document the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL
167 flag.
168
169 * chattr.c: Add support for the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL flag.
170
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500171 * fsck.c (interpret_type): If the "auto" type is specified, make
172 sure interpet_device() is called so that device
173 specifications which use LABEL= or UUID= are translated
174 into a real device name.
175
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001762001-10-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oe3ef3502001-11-05 18:57:43 -0500177
178 * e2image.c (output_meta_data_blocks): Optimize away excess
179 lseek() calls when creating a sparse file. Fewer system
180 calls are a good thing. <g>
181
Andreas Dilger568101f2001-10-13 01:22:25 -06001822001-10-07 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
183
184 * mke2fs.c (main): Always exit with non-zero code in case of error.
185
186 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Check that buffer allocation succeeded.

190 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.25
191
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001922001-09-19 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400193
Theodore Ts'of6a6afc2001-09-19 18:27:39 -0400194 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_inode): Remove dead code that wasn't
195 in use.
196
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400197 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect the fact that adding or
198 removing a journal doesn't require running e2fsck.
199
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002002001-09-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o3f85f652001-09-17 10:38:06 -0400201
202 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Allocate sufficient space for
203 zero-filled buffer.
204
Theodore Ts'ofb707752001-09-04 15:00:37 -04002052001-09-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
206
207 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.24a
208
Andreas Dilger9d8e6342001-08-31 10:24:46 -06002092001-08-31 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
210
211 * mke2fs.c (main): Fix version format string.
212
Theodore Ts'o109624a2001-08-31 00:59:55 -04002132001-08-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
214
215 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.24
216
Theodore Ts'o177a9ac2001-08-30 18:07:40 -04002172001-08-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
218
219 * badblocks.8.in: Fix spelling typo. (Addresses Debian bug #110621)
220
Theodore Ts'o04a96852001-08-30 21:55:26 -0400221 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Now takes a third argument, which is how
222 many sectors to clear out. Fixed up Andreas's patch to
223 make it a bit more efficient/compact.
224
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -06002252001-08-30 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
226
227 * mke2fs.c (main): Zap the second sector of the disk, along with
228 any sectors in the same filesystem block after the superblock.
229 The latter will remove (for example) swapspace signatures
230 on 4kB+ blocksize filesystems. Also when zeroing the "end"
231 of the filesystem don't actually zero the start of a very
232 small device (less than 64 blocks).
233
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -04002342001-08-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
235
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -0600236 * fsck.c (main): Make version display consistent with the other
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -0400237 e2fsprogs programs.
238
239 * lsattr.c, chattr.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2image.c,
240 mklost+found.c: Remove EXT2FS_VERSION from the version
241 display, since it only confuses people.
242
Theodore Ts'oe843c762001-08-18 14:22:25 -04002432001-08-18 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
244
245 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): Remove unused variable
246 check_uuid.
247
248 * get_device_by_label.h: Define function prototype for
249 copy_string(), since this was moved from fsck.c to
250 get_device_by_label.c by Andreas's BK changeset.
251
Andreas Dilger2d155762001-08-17 03:48:11 -06002522001-08-17 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
253
254 * get_device_by_label.[ch], fsck.c, util.c: New interpret_spec()
255 function in get_device_by_label.c to allow the use of
256 UUID= or LABEL= when creating filesystems which use external
257 journal dev (e.g. mke2fs -J device=LABEL=<journal_label>).
258
259 * tune2fs.c: Use superblock s_journal_uuid to locate an external
260 journal device instead of s_journal_dev when removing it.
261 Allow opening journal devices to set the label and UUID
262 in the ext2 superblock.
263
264 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Free journal_device after use, as it is
265 malloc'd in interpret spec.
266
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -04002672001-08-15 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
268
Theodore Ts'o943ed872001-08-27 12:29:22 -0400269 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.23
270
2712001-08-15 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
272
Theodore Ts'o7141b542001-08-15 19:17:37 -0400273 * tune2fs.c: Make sure that error messages are sent to stderr, and
274 normal messages are sent to stdout. (Addresses Debian bug
275 #108555.)
276
Theodore Ts'o1d349cc2001-08-15 19:06:55 -0400277 * fsck.8.in: Fixed error in synopsis of the man page.
278
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400279 * fsck.c (check_all): Don't bother to interpret a device where the
Theodore Ts'o685c13f2001-08-15 19:04:59 -0400280 pass number is zero. (Addresses Debian bug #106696.)
281 (main): Print a warning message if there are no devices to
282 be checked. (Addresses Debian bug #107458.)
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400283
Theodore Ts'of3561ed2001-08-15 11:58:16 -0400284 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Handle -O and -s options in line in the getopt
285 loop, so that -s and -O handling are a bit more intuitive.
286 (Not that they should be mixed anyway; -s is deprecated.)
287
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -0400288 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Give an error if -O is
289 specified more than once.
290
Theodore Ts'o085b02c2001-08-10 19:13:11 -04002912001-08-10 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
292
293 * mke2fs.8.in: Slim down text describing the -O flag to remove
294 text that erroneously implied that all features
295 (including compatible flags) aren't compatible with older
296 kernels.
297
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -04002982001-08-09 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
299
Theodore Ts'oe8a447d2001-08-09 06:13:18 -0400300 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix bug pointed out by Christopher Niessen; if
301 mke2fs -O none is specified, the sparse_super feature
302 should not be present.
303
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -0400304 * e2image.c, e2image.8.in: Add support for raw image files.
305
Theodore Ts'o8c97b0b2001-08-04 21:14:45 -04003062001-08-04 Andreas Dilger <root@lynx.adilger.int>
307
308 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Put check for JOURNAL_DEV before sparse_option,
309 so we don't set the sparse superblock flag on journal devices.
310
Theodore Ts'o194686b2001-07-31 12:03:23 -04003112001-07-31 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
312
313 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, remove_journal_inode): If
314 removing an in-filesystem journal, clear out the journal
315 inode and update the filesystem accounting structures so
316 we don't have to run e2fsck to clean up after ourselves
317
Theodore Ts'ode49f012001-07-30 16:31:30 -04003182001-07-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
319
320 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set): Don't require a forced fsck if
321 we're removing an external journal from a filesystem.

324
325 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the blocksize is not specified and the
326 journal device is specified, use it to determine the
327 blocksize of the new filesystem.
328
Theodore Ts'o9b61b8c2001-07-20 14:25:23 -04003292001-07-20 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
330
331 * fsck.8.in: Add much more explicit language documenting how the
332 fs_passno field in /etc/fstab is handled. (Addresses
333 Debian bug #30833).
334
Theodore Ts'oda376f52001-07-19 20:38:53 -04003352001-07-19 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
336
337 * fstype.c (identify_fs): New file which looks at the superblock
338 of the filesystem to determines its type.
339
340 * fsck.c (fsck_device, ignore, interpret_type): Call identify_fs
341 if the type specified in /etc/fstab is "auto".

357
Theodore Ts'o66cf2f62001-06-14 06:42:44 +0000358 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (print_check_message): Move
359 the message which displays how often the filesystem will
360 be checked from mke2fs into a utility subroutine. Then
361 cause tune2fs to call that function to display the message
362 after adding a journal to a filesystem.
363
364 * mke2fs.8.in: Add manual page fixups and explanation for why it's
365 good to check filesystems periodically from Andreas
366 Dilger.
367
Theodore Ts'ocdf186e2001-06-13 22:16:47 +0000368 * Makefile.in: Don't build e2image if --disable-imager is
369 specified to configure.

372
Theodore Ts'ocbbf0312001-06-13 00:12:04 +0000373 * dumpe2fs.c: Use WORDS_BIGENDIAN to determine whether or not
374 we're (not) using i386 byte order.
375
376 * dumpe2fs.c, mke2fs.c: Stop using the compatibility badblocks
377 function, and use the ext2fs_badblocks_* functions
378 instead.
379
Theodore Ts'o28cf9042001-06-12 22:35:00 +0000380 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Fixed bug which can cause fsck
381 to core dump if there are a mix of devices with standard
Theodore Ts'o83d5abf2001-06-13 23:31:27 +0000382 and non-standard names. (Addresses Debian bug #100559)

385
386 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Don't use _FILE_BITS_OFFSET method of using
387 the 64-bit function, since this changes the expected size
388 of struct dirent. Instead use lseek64 explicitly.
389
Theodore Ts'o797f5ef2001-06-01 23:49:46 +00003902001-06-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

404
Theodore Ts'oa9bc79a2001-05-23 22:29:22 +0000405 * partinfo.c (main): Use unsigned long instead of long when
406 querying the size of a device using the BLKGETSIZE ioctl,
407 to remove the 1TB limit (and turn it into a 2TB limit :-)
408
Theodore Ts'oc7a24e42001-05-23 22:26:39 +0000409 * fsck.c (compile_fs_type): Fix I18N compilation bug: use N_()

415 handling of -t option to be more intuitive. Also add
416 support for the Mandrake -t loop hack. See man page
417 for description of new -t semantics.
418
Theodore Ts'o9164b862001-05-21 01:41:37 +0000419 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Fix bug in
420 device_already_active which could cause infinite loops if
421 we don't know the base_device of the filesystem.

472 passed to filesystem-specific checkers.
473
Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +0000474 * badblocks.8.in: Fixed man page to describe the first optional
475 parameter to badblocks as last_block, instead of
476 num_blocks. (Debian bug #87216)
477
478 * badblocks.c: Change the blocks_count variable to be last_count,
479 which is a more accurate description of the variable.
480
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +00004812001-05-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
482
Theodore Ts'o348e43d2001-05-03 14:43:43 +0000483 * e2image.8.in: New manual page
484
485 * badblocks.8.in, e2label.8.in, mke2fs.8.in mklost+found.8.in,
486 tune2fs.8.in: Update location of e2fsprogs to be
487 http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
488
489 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs
490 to dump out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image
491 file.

Theodore Ts'o45d70862001-05-01 15:44:37 +00004962001-05-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
497
498 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine
499 the base device, we should assume that the device is
500 already active in order to force serialization.
501
Theodore Ts'oce57f142001-04-26 04:25:39 +00005022001-04-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
503
504 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Interpret -c 0 as -c -1 (for
505 backwards compatibility with older kernels). -c 0 makes
506 more sense to users.
507
Theodore Ts'o4d0f2282001-04-23 20:58:03 +00005082001-04-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
509
510 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): If the force flag is given,
511 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
512 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
513 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
514 from journal device.
515 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
516 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
517 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
518
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +00005192001-04-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
520
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +0000521 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
522 documentation for the extern journal device support.
523
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000524 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage

528
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +0000529 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
530 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
531
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000532 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
533 number to be treated as a journal size.
534
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000535 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
536 look nicer.
537
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000538 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
539 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
540 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
541 entire device to get zero'ed.
542
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +00005432001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
544
545 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +0000546 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 102,400 file system
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000547 blocks.
548
549 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
550
551 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
552 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
553 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
554 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
555 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
556 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
557 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
558 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
559 using the absolute size of the journal.
560
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +00005612001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
562
563 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
564 Also handle the case where the default journal size
565 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
566 the filesystem will be checked.
567
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00005682001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

573
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000574 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
575 sparse_super.
576
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000577 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
578 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
579 in hex.
580
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000581 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
582 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
583
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00005842001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
585
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000586 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
587 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
588 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
589 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
590 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
591 with the rest of the options out there.)
592
593 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
594 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
595 from the external journal's filesystem list.
596
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000597 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
598 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
599 given a filesystem size.
600
601 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
602 small as 1MB.
603
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000604 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
605 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
606
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00006072001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
608
609 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
610 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
611 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
612
613 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
614 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
615 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
616 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
617 have been created via separate step.
618
619 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
620 information about an external journal device.
621
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00006222001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
623
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000624 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
625 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
626 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
627 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
628 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
629 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
630 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
631 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
632
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000633 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
634
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000635 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
636 stdout after printing in-progress message.
637 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
638 the mount status of the device.

641
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000642 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
643 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
644 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
645 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
646 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
647
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000648 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
649 flush the device.
650
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000651 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.

655 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
656 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
657 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
658
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00006592001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
660
661 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
662 prototype.
663
664 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
665 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
666 complaints.
667
668 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
669
670 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
671 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
672
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00006732001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
674
675 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
676 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
677 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
678 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
679
680 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
681 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
682 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
683
684 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
685 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
686
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00006872001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
688
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000689 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
690 struct ext2_super_block.
691
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000692 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
693 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
694 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000695 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
696 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
697 using our own version now).
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000698
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +00006992000-12-31 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
700
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000701 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
702 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
703 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
704 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
705 the parallel_root option.
706
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000707 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
708 the file attributes.
709
710 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
711 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
712
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000713 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
714 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
715 support for the journaled data flag.
716
717 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
718
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00007192000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
720
721 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
722
723 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
724 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
725
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00007262000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
727
728 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
729 names.
730
731 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
732 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
733 instead of core dumping.
734
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00007352000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
736
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000737 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
738 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
739 journal creation routines for this purpose.
740
741 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
742 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
743
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000744 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
745 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
746
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00007472000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
748
749 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
750 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
751 memory.
752
753 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
754 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
755
756 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
757
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00007582000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
759
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000760 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
761 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
762 #63442)
763
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000764 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
765 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
766 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
767 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
768 #65267)
769
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000770 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
771 group names to uid's before storing them in the
772 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
773
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00007742000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
775
776 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
777 option=argument style options, and add support for
778 creating filesystems with external journals.
779
780 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
781
Theodore Ts'o72ed1262000-11-12 19:32:20 +00007822000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
783
784 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
785 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
786
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00007872000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
788
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000789 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
790 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
791 at this point.)
792
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000793 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
794 character labels.
795
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000796 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
797 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
798 other devices.
799
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000800 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
801 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
802 journal.
803
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00008042000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
805
806 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
807 didn't catch.
808
Theodore Ts'o3f1e9a52000-09-12 21:21:52 +00008092000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
810
811 * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
812 systems with four IDE interfaces.
813
Theodore Ts'od7e39b02000-09-11 17:01:35 +00008142000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
815
816 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
817 fails.
818
819 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
820 the inode table location in non-hex format.
821
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00008222000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
823
824 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
825 we can't find the device using the name given by
826 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
827 into the kernel, but not mounted.)
828
Theodore Ts'o80c22c92000-08-14 15:32:11 +00008292000-06-27 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolabs.com>
830
831 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
832 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
833 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
834
835 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
836
Theodore Ts'oe41784e2000-08-14 14:44:15 +00008372000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
838
839 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
840 zap_sect.
841 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
842 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
843
Theodore Ts'o28412de2000-07-27 02:45:55 +00008442000-07-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
845
846 * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
847 fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
848
Theodore Ts'of9e67062000-07-13 23:25:54 +00008492000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
850
851 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
852
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +00008532000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
854
855 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
856 are mutually exclusive.
857
858 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
859 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
860 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
861 the long run.)
862
863 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
864 variable before going into the write verification loop.
865 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
866 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
867 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
868 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
869 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
870 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
871 routines anymore.
872
873 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
874 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
875 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
876 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
877 format string.
878
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00008792000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
880
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +0000881 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
882 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
883 the progress bar display logic.
884
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +0000885 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
886 max_mount_count is negative.
887
888 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
889 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
890 check.
891
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +0000892 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
893 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
894 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
895 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
896 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
897 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
898
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000899 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
900 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
901 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
902
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000903 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
904 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000905 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
906 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000907
908 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
909 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
910 device as a default.
911
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +00009122000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
913
914 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
915 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
916 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
917 old, overly complicated logic.
918 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
919 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
920 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
921
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +00009222000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
923
924 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
925 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
926 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
927 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
928
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00009292000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
930
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +0000931 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
932 or LABEL= specification is given.
933
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +0000934 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
935 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
936 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
937 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
938 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
939 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
940
941 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
942 proceed_question that was busted due to the
943 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
944 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
945 cleared of the previous question's newline.
946
Theodore Ts'oe2207ce2000-04-06 21:51:18 +0000947Thu Apr 6 17:50:25 2000 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@signal.thunk.org>
948
949 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
950 support fdatasync().
951
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00009522000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
953
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +0000954 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
955 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
956 manually define optarg and optind.
957
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +0000958 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
959 Beattie.
960
961 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
962 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
963 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
964 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
965
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +0000966 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
967 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
968 address.
969 chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
970
Theodore Ts'oe1a0a3e2000-02-11 05:00:19 +00009712000-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
972
973 * chattr.1.in:
974 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
975
976 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
977
978 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
979
980 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
981 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
982
983 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
984 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
985 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
986 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
987 the same flag.
988
989 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
990 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
991 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.
992

994
Theodore Ts'od9c56d32000-02-08 00:47:55 +0000995 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
996 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
997 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
998 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
999 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
1000
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +00001001 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
1002 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
1003 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
1004 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
1005 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
1006 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
1007
1008 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
1009
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +000010102000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1011
1012 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
1013 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
1014 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
1015 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
1016 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
1017
1018 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
1019 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
1020
1021 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h
1022
Theodore Ts'o582134c2000-01-19 13:26:23 +000010232000-01-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1024
1025 * tune2fs.c (usage): Update the usage message to correctly

1030 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
1031 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
1032 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
1033 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
1034
1035 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
1036 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
1037 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
1038 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
1039 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
1040 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
1041 Finally, the original data is written back.
1042
1043 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
1044 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
1045 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
1046 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
1047 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
1048 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
1049 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
1050 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
1051 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
1052 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
1053 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
1054 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
1055 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
1056 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
1057 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
1058
1059 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
1060 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
1061 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
1062 randomly.
1063
1064 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
1065 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
1066
1067 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
1068 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
1069 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
1070 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
1071 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
1072 and want the host hard drive to flush.
1073
1074 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
1075 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
1076 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
1077 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
1078 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
1079 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
1080 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
1081 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
1082 scan).
1083
1084 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
1085 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
1086 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
1087 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
1088 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
1089 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
1090 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
1091 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
1092 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
1093 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
1094 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
1095 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
1096 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
1097 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
1098 completely reliable.
1099
1100 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
1101 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
1102 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
1103 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
1104 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
1105 for your information.
1106
1107 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
1108 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
1109 which I install which will write back whatever original
1110 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
1111 (except SIGKILL, of course).
1112
1113 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
1114 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
1115 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
1116 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
1117 could learn how to update the manpage and other
1118 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
1119 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
1120 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
1121 should be in the distribution."

1124
1125 * Really fix the bug where "fsck -As" will actually allow
1126 interactive fsck's. (For those people who like to do
1127 interactive fsck's in the /etc/rc scripts!?!)
1128
Theodore Ts'obfd21931999-11-23 13:48:58 +000011291999-11-23 <tytso@valinux.com>

1131 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix man page so that the sparse_super filesystem
1132 option is properly named.
1133
Theodore Ts'o6733c2f1999-11-23 02:23:30 +000011341999-11-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1135
1136 * mke2fs.c: Change log2() and log10() to int_log2() and
1137 int_log10() to avoid namespace collisions. Change #ifdef
1138 sparc to #ifdef __sparc__.

1152 filesystem option is properly named.
1153
Theodore Ts'o6a35ffa1999-11-04 22:34:43 +000011541999-11-04 <tytso@valinux.com>
1155
1156 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
1157 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
1158 fsck -As can do so interactively.
1159
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +000011601999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>

1163
11641999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
1165
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +00001166 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
1167 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
1168 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
1169
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +00001170 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
1171 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
1172 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
1173 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
1174
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001175 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +00001176 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
1177 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
1178 gcc warnings.
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001179
Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +00001180 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
1181 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
1182 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
1183 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
1184 the child process.
1185
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +00001186 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
1187 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
1188
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +000011891999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
1190
1191 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
1192 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +00001193 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
1194 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
1195 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00001196
1197 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
1198 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
1199 an infinite loop.
1200
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +000012011999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1202
Theodore Ts'o614fdfd1999-10-23 03:19:51 +00001203 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
1204
12051999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1206
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +00001207 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
1208 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
1209 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
1210 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
1211
1212 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
1213 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
1214 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
1215 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
1216
Theodore Ts'ocaf8ce41999-10-21 19:56:34 +000012171999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
1218
1219 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
1220 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
1221 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
1222 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
1223 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
1224
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +000012251999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
1226
Theodore Ts'o671cbfa1999-10-20 18:14:23 +00001227 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
1228 changing the sparse superblock option
1229
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00001230 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
1231 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
1232 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
1233 unhandled SIGUSR1.
1234
12351999-09-15 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o76714331999-10-20 18:06:29 +00001236
1237 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
1238 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
1239
Theodore Ts'o27401561999-09-14 20:11:19 +000012401999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
1241
1242 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
1243 Dirson.
1244
1245 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
1246 kernels.
1247
1248 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
1249 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
1250 flag.
1251
1252 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
1253 (header-only).
1254
12551999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
1256
1257 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
1258 superblock option.
1259
12601999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o657cb971999-07-30 23:19:10 +00001261
1262 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
1263
Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +000012641999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1265
1266 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
1267 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
1268 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
1269 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
1270 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
1271 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
1272 the filesystem the system would make.
1273
12741999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
1275
1276 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
1277 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
1278 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
1279 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
1280 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
1281
12821999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +00001283
1284 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
1285 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
1286 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
1287
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000012881999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +00001289
1290 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
1291 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
1292
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000012931999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +00001294
1295 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
1296 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
1297 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
1298 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
1299 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
1300 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
1301
1302 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
1303 UUID=bar type specifications.
1304
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +000013051999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
1306
1307 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
1308 clear out a large block number.
1309
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +000013101999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
1311
1312 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
1313 appears mounted if the force option is given.
1314
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +000013151999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
1316
1317 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
1318 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
1319
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +000013201999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1321
1322 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
1323 code cleanups.
1324
Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +000013251999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1326
1327 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
1328 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
1329 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
1330 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
1331
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +000013321999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
1333
1334 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
1335 generate UUIDs.
1336
13371999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1338
1339 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
1340 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
1341
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +000013421999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1343
1344 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
1345 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
1346 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
1347 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
1348
13491999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1350
1351 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
1352 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
1353 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
1354 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
1355 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
1356 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
1357
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +000013581999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1359
1360 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
1361 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
1362 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
1363 fsck pass structure.
1364 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
1365 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
1366 to finish.
1367
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +000013681999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1369
Theodore Ts'o9e51eca1999-01-09 16:32:31 +00001370 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
1371
13721999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1373
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +00001374 * fsck.8.in: Clarified and expanded the documentation for the -A
1375 switch.
1376
Theodore Ts'o665f7101999-01-08 13:33:39 +000013771999-01-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1378
1379 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
1380 needs to be treated as zero.
1381
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +000013821999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1383
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +00001384 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add -N option to allow the user to specify
1385 exactly how many inodes he/she wishes.
Theodore Ts'o5515e6b1999-01-05 07:25:06 +00001386
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +00001387 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
1388 program if the -V option is given.
1389
1390 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent

1500
1501 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1502 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1503 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1504

1773 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1774 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1775 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1776 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1777 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1778 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1779 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1780 option turned on.

1783
1784 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
1785
1786Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1787
1788 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
1789 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
1790 vs. /dev/hda1)
1791
1792Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1793
1794 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1795 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1796 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1797 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1798 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1799
1800Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1801
1802 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
1803 ext2fs_test_bit().
1804
Theodore Ts'o297f47a1997-04-26 14:25:20 +00001805Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1806
1807 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1808 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
1809
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +00001810Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1811
1812 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1813
1814Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1815
1816 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1817 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1818 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1819
1820Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1821
1822 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
1823 the same order.
1824
1825Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1826
1827 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1828 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1829
1830 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
1831 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
1832 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
1833 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
1834
1835Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1836
1837 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
1838 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
1839 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
1840 check.
1841
1842Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1843
1844 * badblocks.8:
1845 * chattr.1:
1846 * dumpe2fs.8:
1847 * fsck.8:
1848 * lsattr.1:
1849 * mke2fs.8:
1850 * mklost+found.8:
1851 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
1852
1853Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1854
1855 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
1856 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
1857 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
1858
1859 * mke2fs.8:
1860 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
1861
1862Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1863
1864 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
1865 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
1866 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
1867
1868Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1869
1870 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
1871 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
1872 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
1873 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
1874 advisable.
1875
1876 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
1877 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
1878 alloca is not portable!
1879
1880 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
1881 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
1882 /etc/fstab.
1883
1884 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
1885
1886Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
1887
1888 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
1889 benefit.
1890
1891 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
1892
1893 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1894 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
1895
1896Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1897
1898 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1899 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
1900
1901Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1902
1903 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
1904
1905 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
1906 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
1907
1908 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
1909
1910Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1911
1912 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
1913 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
1914 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
1915 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1916
1917 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
1918 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1919 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
1920 statically sized buffer.
1921 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1922 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1923
1924 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
1925 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
1926 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
1927 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
1928 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
1929
1930 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
1931 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
1932 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
1933 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
1934 (test_rw): Ditto.
1935
1936 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1937 support separate compilation directories.
1938
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +00001939Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
1940
1941 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
1942 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
1943 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
1944 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
1945
1946 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
1947 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
1948 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
1949 very large partition.
1950
1951 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
1952 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
1953 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
1954
1955 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
1956 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
1957 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
1958 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
1959 ioctl, which most do.)
1960
1961 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
1962 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
1963 during 0.5b development.)
1964
1965Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1966
1967 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
1968 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
1969 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
1970 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
1971 measure).
1972
1973 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
1974 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
1975 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
1976
1977Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1978
1979 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
1980
1981 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
1982 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
1983 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
1984
1985Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1986
1987 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
1988 new options.
1989 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
1990
1991Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1992
1993 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
1994 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
1995 all partitions should be checked.
1996
1997Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1998
1999 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
2000 structures.
2001
2002 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
2003 the effective uid.
2004
2005Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2006
2007 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
2008 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
2009
2010Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2011
2012 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
2013
2014Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
2015
2016 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
2017 read-only test.
2018
2019 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
2020
2021 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
2022
2023 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
2024
2025 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
2026
2027 (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
2028
2029Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2030
2031 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
2032 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
2033 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
2034 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
2035 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
2036
2037 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
2038 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
2039 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
2040 statistics if necessary.
