20
Theodore Ts'odbfb3f02002-09-29 22:42:27 -040021 * get_device_by_label.c: Applied sourceforge patch #613447, which
22 adds support for reiserfs volumes for LABEL= and UUID=
23 fstab entries.
24
Theodore Ts'o41ec7bb2002-09-29 22:37:40 -040025 * badblocks.c (main): Appled sourceforge patch #600451, which
26 addresses sourceforge bug #600388, by AEF. This allows
27 badblocks to work correctly on read-only devices such as
28 CD-ROM's, DVD's, etc.

31
32 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Clarify manual pages about using the
33 caret ('^') character to negate feature sets when using
34 the -O option. Define the has_journal feature to avoid
35 confusion about what ^has_journal means.

42
43 * fsck.c: If the bone-headed user enters the filename twice, the
44 -R option which skips the root filesystem will skip all of
45 them. (Addresses Debian bug #159423). Note! This is not
46 a precedent for dealing intelligently with any other kind
47 of doubled entry in /etc/fstab!

Theodore Ts'o843049c2002-09-22 15:37:40 -0400492002-09-22 root <tytso@mit.edu>
50
51 * mke2fs.c (main): Enable directory indexing by default.
52
53 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set): Allow directory indexing flag to
54 be set. If so, set the default hash to be TEA, and
55 initialize the hash seed to a random value.
56
Theodore Ts'of9e4abf2002-09-21 06:46:43 -0400572002-09-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
58
59 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Fix bug which caused
60 LABEL='xxx' to not work correctly when using LVM.
61 (Reversed sense of error check reported by ateeq@hotpop.com)

68
Theodore Ts'o118d7da2002-08-17 23:01:22 -040069 * findfs.8.in: New man page.
70
71 * tune2fs.c (do_findfs): If tune2fs is executed with argv[0] set
72 to findfs, then it will interpret argv[1] as one of
73 LABEL=xxx or UUID=xxx and translate it to a device name.
74
75 * get_device_by_label.c (uuidcache_init): Moved code which
76 interpreted /proc/partitions into read_partitions(), and
77 then added support for interpreting /proc/evms/volumes in
78 read_evms(). uuidcache_init() calls both read_evms() and
79 read_partitions().
80
Theodore Ts'o1f22ce32002-08-17 18:16:29 -040081 * mke2fs.8.in: Add a common usage of the -n option. (Addresses
82 Debian Bug #146437)
83
Theodore Ts'oa1411352002-08-17 17:39:39 -040084 * fsck.c (main): If no filesystems are specified on the command
85 line, default to -As. (Addresses Debian Bug #153102)
86
87 * badblocks.8.in: Clarify why it's bad to do a non-destructive
88 test on a r/o mounted filesystem. (Addresses Debian Bug
89 #131350)
90
Theodore Ts'o023d1112002-08-17 14:44:56 -040091 * chattr.1.in: Document the compression attribute flags E, X, and
92 Z, and explain that chattr can't set or set these flags.
93 (Addresses Debian Bug #151990)
94
Theodore Ts'of044b4d2002-08-17 13:32:21 -040095 * fsck.8.in: Fix typo in man page, and clarified text regarding
96 options specifiers for -t option. (Addresses Debian bug
97 #145044)
98
99 * mke2fs.c (main): If there is a problem zeroing blocks at the end
100 of the filesystem, don't abort mke2fs. Addresses Debian
101 bug #155007.
102
Theodore Ts'oed909bb2002-08-16 17:03:59 -04001032002-08-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
104
105 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Check for an extended
106 attribute block before checking for has_valid_blocks.
107
Theodore Ts'o4cae0452002-07-21 14:14:03 -04001082002-07-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
109
110 * fsck.8.in: Document new fsck exit code, FSCK_CANCELED.
111
112 * fsck.c: Trap SIGINT and SIGTERM, and relay it to all of the
113 child fsck processes.
114
Theodore Ts'o70988102002-07-14 08:00:00 -04001152002-07-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
116
117 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Clear the buffer *after* testing for the
118 BSD sector label. Otherwise the first 512 bytes don't get
119 zapped. (Addresses Debian bug #147256.)
120
Theodore Ts'of0865ce2002-07-02 10:08:27 -04001212002-07-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
122
123 * mke2fs.8.in: Cleaned up man page, and made it a bit more
124 OS-agnostic. Addresses Debian bug #144621. Hope this
125 makes the Hurd whiners happy. :-)
126
Theodore Ts'o5cfd7402002-06-28 10:47:24 -04001272002-06-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

129 * chattr.1.in: Fix man page typo. (Addresses Debian bug #141938)
130
Theodore Ts'o88372d52002-06-15 18:58:39 -04001312002-06-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
132
133 * chattr.c: Applied patch from Andrew to support the dirsync flag.
134
Andreas Dilgerb21bf262002-06-10 11:05:56 -06001352002-05-22 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
136
137 * mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults): make the default inode ratio at most
138 one inode per block for large blocksizes.
139
Theodore Ts'o31e29a12002-05-17 10:53:07 -04001402002-05-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
141
142 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Determine the page size using sysconf() at
143 runtime, instead of using the Linux system header files.
144
1452002-05-16 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
146
147 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow blocksizes larger than 4k to be specified,
148 with warning printed and the user questioned if blocksize
149 is larger than the system's page size according to the
150 Linux kernel header files. Added better checking for
151 valid inode sizes, and again print a warning message if
152 using a large inode size (since most kernels today don't
153 support this yet).

164
Theodore Ts'o7ef3bb82002-03-08 03:01:53 -0500165 * mke2fs.c: Check for the BSD disklabel on all architectures, and
166 also check the byte-swapped magic number as well.
167
Theodore Ts'o756df352002-03-07 20:52:12 -05001682002-03-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
169
Theodore Ts'o66938372002-03-08 00:14:46 -0500170 * mke2fs.c: Output warnings to stderr
171 (From Philipp Thomas <pthomas@suse.de>)

Andreas Dilger0072f8d2002-02-25 23:11:26 -07001862002-02-25 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
187
188 * mke2fs.c: Add check for mkfs.ext3 and create a journal in
189 this case.
190
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -05001912002-02-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

193 * Makefile.in (install): Install hard links for man pages for
194 mkfs.ext2 and mkfs.ext3. Also install hard link for
195 mkfs.ext3. Remove any compressed man pages before
196 installing the man pages.
197
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -05001982002-02-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o541d1732002-02-23 21:23:26 -0500199
200 * badblocks.8.in: Clarify man page's description of the -f option
201
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -05002022002-02-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o7d4343d2002-02-12 02:34:44 -0500203
204 * get_device_by_label.c: Since on non-STDC compilers, we define
205 away const, include get_device_by_label.h after we include
206 fsck.h.
207
208 * Makefile.in (base_device): Remove use of $<, which is
209 non-portable.

218 "ext3,ext2", etc.
219
220 * fstype.c (identify_fs): Add support for only searching for a
221 specified list of filesystems. Also add support for
222 identifying reiserfs filesystems.
223
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002242002-01-29 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa1069112002-01-29 12:49:14 -0500225

227 fsck programs to be capped via the FSCK_MAX_INST
228 envrionment variable.
229
230 * fsck.8.in: Document all of the environment variables used by fsck.
231
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002322002-01-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o177ab2b2002-01-27 18:23:49 -0500233
234 * tune2fs.8.in: Document the -f flag to tune2fs.
235
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002362002-01-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5493a272002-01-02 14:15:35 -0500237
238 * badblocks.c (main): Open the device as O_RDWR if possible, since
239 fsync() isn't guaranteed to work if the filesystem is
240 opened read-only.
241
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002422001-12-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'od4de4aa2001-12-26 08:58:01 -0500243
244 * tune2fs.8.in, tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options, main): Add
245 support for new option, -T, which allows the user to set
246 the last checked time on the filesystem.
247
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002482001-12-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -0500249
Theodore Ts'o3ed57c22001-12-24 15:01:59 -0500250 * mke2fs.c (main, test_disk): If two -c options are
251 specified, then perform a destructive read/write test
252 of the disk.
253
254 * mke2fs.8.in: Document the double -c option; also encourage users
255 to use -c instead of the -l/-L options since it's too hard
256 for users to get things like the blocksize parameter correct.
257
258 * badblocks.8.in: Encourage users to use the -c option in mke2fs
259 and e2fsck instead of running badblocks directly.
260
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -0500261 * mke2fs.c (create_lost_and_found): The lost+found directory is
262 now created with 0700 permissions, since files which get
263 dropped into that directory may have come from a protected
264 directory, and the system administrator may not deal with
265 immediately. (Addresses Debian bug #118443)
266
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002672001-12-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o19007e52001-12-23 19:33:51 -0500268
269 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: Move linux/jbd.h to
270 ext2fs/kernel-jbd.h, to avoid using the system header
271 file version of hbd.h when using diet glibc (since it
272 forcibly adds /usr/include to the beginning of the
273 include search path.)
274
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002752001-12-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oeaf4dc52001-12-22 00:04:22 -0500276
277 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Add support to read out
278 information from the LVM proc hierarchy, so that the UUID
279 cache can search the LVM logical volumes for UUID's,
280 labels, etc.
281
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002822001-12-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o0655b102001-12-21 23:59:46 -0500283
284 * dumpe2fs.c (list_bad_blocks): Change to not die if the listing
285 of the bad blocks can't be found. Slimmed down dumpe2fs
286 by eliminating duplicate code paths.
287

292 mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults, zap_sector, PRS),
293 tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device, update_feature_set),
294 util.c (figure_journal_size), util.h: Fix gcc -Wall nits.
295
296 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Fix gcc -Wall nits, and use
297 the stashed inode functions to optimize away system calls.
298
Theodore Ts'o8cf93332001-12-16 02:23:36 -0500299 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: linux/jfs.h has been renamed to
300 linux/jbd.h
301

Theodore Ts'oa5f0bb92001-12-02 19:29:35 +0100303
304 * dumpe2fs.c: Don't print the offset to the bitmap and inode table
305 if it's negative. Also did some generalized code clean up
306 to slim it down the support of the -x option.
307
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003082001-11-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

Theodore Ts'o6ef39202001-11-13 18:49:09 -0500314
315 * util.c (check_plausibility): Use stat64 if available so that
316 check_plausibility() works with files > 2GB.
317

Theodore Ts'ob3f5b4c2001-11-05 19:22:02 -0500320 * chattr.1.in: Update the man page to document the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL
321 flag.
322
323 * chattr.c: Add support for the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL flag.
324
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500325 * fsck.c (interpret_type): If the "auto" type is specified, make
326 sure interpet_device() is called so that device
327 specifications which use LABEL= or UUID= are translated
328 into a real device name.
329

332 * e2image.c (output_meta_data_blocks): Optimize away excess
333 lseek() calls when creating a sparse file. Fewer system
334 calls are a good thing. <g>
335
Andreas Dilger568101f2001-10-13 01:22:25 -06003362001-10-07 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>

349 in use.
350
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400351 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect the fact that adding or
352 removing a journal doesn't require running e2fsck.
353
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003542001-09-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

374
Theodore Ts'o04a96852001-08-30 21:55:26 -0400375 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Now takes a third argument, which is how
376 many sectors to clear out. Fixed up Andreas's patch to
377 make it a bit more efficient/compact.
378
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -06003792001-08-30 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
380
381 * mke2fs.c (main): Zap the second sector of the disk, along with
382 any sectors in the same filesystem block after the superblock.
383 The latter will remove (for example) swapspace signatures
384 on 4kB+ blocksize filesystems. Also when zeroing the "end"
385 of the filesystem don't actually zero the start of a very
386 small device (less than 64 blocks).
387
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -04003882001-08-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

392
393 * lsattr.c, chattr.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2image.c,
394 mklost+found.c: Remove EXT2FS_VERSION from the version
395 display, since it only confuses people.
396

400 check_uuid.
401
402 * get_device_by_label.h: Define function prototype for
403 copy_string(), since this was moved from fsck.c to
404 get_device_by_label.c by Andreas's BK changeset.
405
Andreas Dilger2d155762001-08-17 03:48:11 -06004062001-08-17 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
407
408 * get_device_by_label.[ch], fsck.c, util.c: New interpret_spec()
409 function in get_device_by_label.c to allow the use of
410 UUID= or LABEL= when creating filesystems which use external
411 journal dev (e.g. mke2fs -J device=LABEL=<journal_label>).
412
413 * tune2fs.c: Use superblock s_journal_uuid to locate an external
414 journal device instead of s_journal_dev when removing it.
415 Allow opening journal devices to set the label and UUID
416 in the ext2 superblock.
417
418 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Free journal_device after use, as it is
419 malloc'd in interpret spec.

426
Theodore Ts'o7141b542001-08-15 19:17:37 -0400427 * tune2fs.c: Make sure that error messages are sent to stderr, and
428 normal messages are sent to stdout. (Addresses Debian bug
429 #108555.)
430
Theodore Ts'o1d349cc2001-08-15 19:06:55 -0400431 * fsck.8.in: Fixed error in synopsis of the man page.
432
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400433 * fsck.c (check_all): Don't bother to interpret a device where the
Theodore Ts'o685c13f2001-08-15 19:04:59 -0400434 pass number is zero. (Addresses Debian bug #106696.)
435 (main): Print a warning message if there are no devices to
436 be checked. (Addresses Debian bug #107458.)
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400437
Theodore Ts'of3561ed2001-08-15 11:58:16 -0400438 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Handle -O and -s options in line in the getopt
439 loop, so that -s and -O handling are a bit more intuitive.
440 (Not that they should be mixed anyway; -s is deprecated.)
441
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -0400442 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Give an error if -O is
443 specified more than once.

Theodore Ts'o085b02c2001-08-10 19:13:11 -04004452001-08-10 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
446
447 * mke2fs.8.in: Slim down text describing the -O flag to remove
448 text that erroneously implied that all features
449 (including compatible flags) aren't compatible with older
450 kernels.
451
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -04004522001-08-09 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
453
Theodore Ts'oe8a447d2001-08-09 06:13:18 -0400454 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix bug pointed out by Christopher Niessen; if
455 mke2fs -O none is specified, the sparse_super feature
456 should not be present.
457
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -0400458 * e2image.c, e2image.8.in: Add support for raw image files.
459
Theodore Ts'o8c97b0b2001-08-04 21:14:45 -04004602001-08-04 Andreas Dilger <root@lynx.adilger.int>
461
462 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Put check for JOURNAL_DEV before sparse_option,
463 so we don't set the sparse superblock flag on journal devices.
464
Theodore Ts'o194686b2001-07-31 12:03:23 -04004652001-07-31 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
466
467 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, remove_journal_inode): If
468 removing an in-filesystem journal, clear out the journal
469 inode and update the filesystem accounting structures so
470 we don't have to run e2fsck to clean up after ourselves
471
Theodore Ts'ode49f012001-07-30 16:31:30 -04004722001-07-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

478
479 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the blocksize is not specified and the
480 journal device is specified, use it to determine the
481 blocksize of the new filesystem.
482
Theodore Ts'o9b61b8c2001-07-20 14:25:23 -04004832001-07-20 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

491 * fstype.c (identify_fs): New file which looks at the superblock
492 of the filesystem to determines its type.
493
494 * fsck.c (fsck_device, ignore, interpret_type): Call identify_fs
495 if the type specified in /etc/fstab is "auto".

513 the message which displays how often the filesystem will
514 be checked from mke2fs into a utility subroutine. Then
515 cause tune2fs to call that function to display the message
516 after adding a journal to a filesystem.
517
518 * mke2fs.8.in: Add manual page fixups and explanation for why it's
519 good to check filesystems periodically from Andreas

Theodore Ts'ocbbf0312001-06-13 00:12:04 +0000527 * dumpe2fs.c: Use WORDS_BIGENDIAN to determine whether or not
528 we're (not) using i386 byte order.
529
530 * dumpe2fs.c, mke2fs.c: Stop using the compatibility badblocks
531 function, and use the ext2fs_badblocks_* functions
532 instead.
533
Theodore Ts'o28cf9042001-06-12 22:35:00 +0000534 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Fixed bug which can cause fsck
535 to core dump if there are a mix of devices with standard

539
540 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Don't use _FILE_BITS_OFFSET method of using
541 the 64-bit function, since this changes the expected size
542 of struct dirent. Instead use lseek64 explicitly.
543
Theodore Ts'o797f5ef2001-06-01 23:49:46 +00005442001-06-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

558
Theodore Ts'oa9bc79a2001-05-23 22:29:22 +0000559 * partinfo.c (main): Use unsigned long instead of long when
560 querying the size of a device using the BLKGETSIZE ioctl,
561 to remove the 1TB limit (and turn it into a 2TB limit :-)
562
Theodore Ts'oc7a24e42001-05-23 22:26:39 +0000563 * fsck.c (compile_fs_type): Fix I18N compilation bug: use N_()

651
652 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine

665 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
666 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
667 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
668 from journal device.
669 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
670 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
671 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
672

674
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +0000675 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
676 documentation for the extern journal device support.
677
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000678 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage
679 message.
680
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +00006812001-04-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
682
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +0000683 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
684 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
685
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000686 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
687 number to be treated as a journal size.
688
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000689 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
690 look nicer.
691
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000692 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
693 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
694 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
695 entire device to get zero'ed.
696
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +00006972001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
698
699 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +0000700 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 102,400 file system
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000701 blocks.
702
703 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
704
705 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
706 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
707 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
708 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
709 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
710 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
711 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
712 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
713 using the absolute size of the journal.
714
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +00007152001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
716
717 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
718 Also handle the case where the default journal size
719 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
720 the filesystem will be checked.
721
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00007222001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
723
724 * e2image.c (main): Add code to write the e2image header.
725
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +00007262001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
727
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000728 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
729 sparse_super.
730
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000731 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
732 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
733 in hex.
734
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000735 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
736 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
737
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00007382001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
739
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000740 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
741 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
742 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
743 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
744 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
745 with the rest of the options out there.)
746
747 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
748 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
749 from the external journal's filesystem list.
750
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000751 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
752 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
753 given a filesystem size.
754
755 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
756 small as 1MB.
757
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000758 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
759 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
760
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00007612001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
762
763 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
764 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
765 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
766
767 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
768 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
769 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
770 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
771 have been created via separate step.
772
773 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
774 information about an external journal device.
775
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00007762001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
777
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000778 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
779 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
780 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
781 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
782 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
783 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
784 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
785 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
786
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000787 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
788
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000789 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
790 stdout after printing in-progress message.
791 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
792 the mount status of the device.
793
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +00007942001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
795
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000796 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
797 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
798 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
799 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
800 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
801
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000802 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
803 flush the device.
804
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000805 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
806
Theodore Ts'o83238152001-01-09 00:16:26 +00008072001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
808
809 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
810 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
811 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
812
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00008132001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
814
815 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
816 prototype.
817
818 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
819 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
820 complaints.
821
822 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
823
824 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
825 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
826
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00008272001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
828
829 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
830 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
831 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
832 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
833
834 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
835 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
836 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
837
838 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
839 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
840
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00008412001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
842
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000843 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
844 struct ext2_super_block.
845
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000846 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
847 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
848 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000849 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
850 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
851 using our own version now).

854
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000855 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
856 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
857 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
858 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
859 the parallel_root option.
860
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000861 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
862 the file attributes.
863
864 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
865 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
866
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000867 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
868 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
869 support for the journaled data flag.
870
871 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
872
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00008732000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
874
875 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
876
877 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
878 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
879
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00008802000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
881
882 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
883 names.
884
885 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
886 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
887 instead of core dumping.
888
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00008892000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
890
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000891 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
892 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
893 journal creation routines for this purpose.
894
895 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
896 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
897
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000898 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
899 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
900
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00009012000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
902
903 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
904 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
905 memory.
906
907 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
908 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
909
910 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
911
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00009122000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
913
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000914 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
915 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
916 #63442)
917
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000918 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
919 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
920 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
921 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
922 #65267)
923
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000924 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
925 group names to uid's before storing them in the
926 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
927
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00009282000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
929
930 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
931 option=argument style options, and add support for
932 creating filesystems with external journals.
933
934 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
935
Theodore Ts'o72ed1262000-11-12 19:32:20 +00009362000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
937
938 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
939 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
940
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00009412000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
942
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000943 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
944 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
945 at this point.)
946
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000947 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
948 character labels.
949
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000950 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
951 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
952 other devices.
953
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000954 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
955 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
956 journal.
957
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00009582000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
959
960 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
961 didn't catch.
962
Theodore Ts'o3f1e9a52000-09-12 21:21:52 +00009632000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
964
965 * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
966 systems with four IDE interfaces.
967
Theodore Ts'od7e39b02000-09-11 17:01:35 +00009682000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
969
970 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
971 fails.
972
973 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
974 the inode table location in non-hex format.
975
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00009762000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
977
978 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
979 we can't find the device using the name given by
980 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
981 into the kernel, but not mounted.)
982
Theodore Ts'o80c22c92000-08-14 15:32:11 +00009832000-06-27 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolabs.com>
984
985 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
986 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
987 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
988
989 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
990
Theodore Ts'oe41784e2000-08-14 14:44:15 +00009912000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
992
993 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
994 zap_sect.
995 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
996 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
997
Theodore Ts'o28412de2000-07-27 02:45:55 +00009982000-07-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
999
1000 * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
1001 fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
1002
Theodore Ts'of9e67062000-07-13 23:25:54 +000010032000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
1004
1005 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
1006
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +000010072000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
1008
1009 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
1010 are mutually exclusive.
1011
1012 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
1013 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
1014 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
1015 the long run.)
1016
1017 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
1018 variable before going into the write verification loop.
1019 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
1020 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
1021 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
1022 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
1023 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
1024 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
1025 routines anymore.
1026
1027 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
1028 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
1029 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
1030 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
1031 format string.

1034
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +00001035 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
1036 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
1037 the progress bar display logic.
1038
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +00001039 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
1040 max_mount_count is negative.
1041
1042 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
1043 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
1044 check.
1045
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +00001046 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
1047 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
1048 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
1049 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
1050 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
1051 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
1052
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +00001053 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
1054 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
1055 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
1056
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00001057 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
1058 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +00001059 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
1060 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00001061
1062 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
1063 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
1064 device as a default.
1065
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +000010662000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1067
1068 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
1069 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
1070 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
1071 old, overly complicated logic.
1072 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
1073 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
1074 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
1075
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +000010762000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1077
1078 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
1079 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
1080 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
1081 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.

1084
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +00001085 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
1086 or LABEL= specification is given.
1087
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00001088 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
1089 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
1090 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
1091 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
1092 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
1093 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
1094
1095 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
1096 proceed_question that was busted due to the
1097 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
1098 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
1099 cleared of the previous question's newline.

1102
1103 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
1104 support fdatasync().
1105

1107
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +00001108 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
1109 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
1110 manually define optarg and optind.
1111
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +00001112 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
1113 Beattie.
1114
1115 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
1116 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
1117 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
1118 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
1119
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00001120 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
1121 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
1122 address.

1126
1127 * chattr.1.in:
1128 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
1129
1130 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
1131
1132 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
1133
1134 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
1135 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
1136
1137 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
1138 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
1139 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
1140 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
1141 the same flag.
1142
1143 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
1144 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
1145 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.

1150 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1151 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
1152 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
1153 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
1154
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +00001155 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
1156 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
1157 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
1158 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
1159 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
1160 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
1161
1162 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
1163
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +000011642000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1165
1166 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
1167 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
1168 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
1169 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
1170 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
1171
1172 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
1173 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
1174
1175 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h

1179 * tune2fs.c (usage): Update the usage message to correctly
1180 document the -s option.

1183
1184 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
1185 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
1186 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
1187 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
1188
1189 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
1190 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
1191 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
1192 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
1193 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
1194 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
1195 Finally, the original data is written back.
1196
1197 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
1198 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
1199 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
1200 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
1201 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
1202 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
1203 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
1204 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
1205 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
1206 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
1207 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
1208 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
1209 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
1210 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
1211 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
1212
1213 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
1214 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
1215 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
1216 randomly.
1217
1218 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
1219 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
1220
1221 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
1222 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
1223 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
1224 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
1225 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
1226 and want the host hard drive to flush.
1227
1228 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
1229 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
1230 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
1231 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
1232 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
1233 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
1234 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
1235 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
1236 scan).
1237
1238 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
1239 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
1240 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
1241 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
1242 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
1243 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
1244 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
1245 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
1246 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
1247 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
1248 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
1249 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
1250 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
1251 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
1252 completely reliable.
1253
1254 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
1255 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
1256 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
1257 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
1258 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
1259 for your information.
1260
1261 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
1262 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
1263 which I install which will write back whatever original
1264 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
1265 (except SIGKILL, of course).
1266
1267 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
1268 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
1269 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
1270 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
1271 could learn how to update the manpage and other
1272 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
1273 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
1274 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
1275 should be in the distribution."

1278
1279 * Really fix the bug where "fsck -As" will actually allow
1280 interactive fsck's. (For those people who like to do
1281 interactive fsck's in the /etc/rc scripts!?!)
1282

1309
1310 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
1311 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
1312 fsck -As can do so interactively.
1313

1319
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +00001320 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
1321 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
1322 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
1323
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +00001324 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
1325 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
1326 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
1327 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
1328
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001329 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +00001330 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.

Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +00001334 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
1335 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
1336 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
1337 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
1338 the child process.
1339
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +00001340 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
1341 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
1342

1345 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
1346 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +00001347 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
1348 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
1349 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00001350

1360
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +00001361 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
1362 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
1363 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
1364 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
1365
1366 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
1367 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
1368 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
1369 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.

1382 changing the sparse superblock option
1383
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00001384 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
1385 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
1386 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
1387 unhandled SIGUSR1.

1392 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
1393
Theodore Ts'o27401561999-09-14 20:11:19 +000013941999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
1395
1396 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
1397 Dirson.
1398
1399 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
1400 kernels.
1401
1402 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
1403 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
1404 flag.
1405
1406 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
1407 (header-only).
1408
14091999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
1410
1411 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
1412 superblock option.
1413
14141999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o657cb971999-07-30 23:19:10 +00001415
1416 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
1417
Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +000014181999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1419
1420 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
1421 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
1422 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
1423 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
1424 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
1425 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
1426 the filesystem the system would make.
1427
14281999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
1429
1430 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
1431 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
1432 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
1433 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
1434 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
1435
14361999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +00001437
1438 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
1439 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
1440 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
1441
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000014421999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +00001443
1444 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
1445 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
1446
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000014471999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +00001448
1449 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
1450 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
1451 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
1452 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
1453 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
1454 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
1455
1456 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
1457 UUID=bar type specifications.
1458
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +000014591999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
1460
1461 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
1462 clear out a large block number.
1463
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +000014641999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
1465
1466 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
1467 appears mounted if the force option is given.
1468
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +000014691999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
1470
1471 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
1472 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
1473
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +000014741999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1475
1476 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
1477 code cleanups.
1478
Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +000014791999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1480
1481 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
1482 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
1483 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
1484 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
1485
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +000014861999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
1487
1488 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
1489 generate UUIDs.
1490
14911999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1492
1493 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
1494 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
1495
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +000014961999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1497
1498 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
1499 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
1500 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
1501 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
1502
15031999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1504
1505 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
1506 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
1507 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
1508 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
1509 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
1510 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
1511
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +000015121999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1513
1514 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
1515 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
1516 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
1517 fsck pass structure.
1518 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
1519 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
1520 to finish.
1521
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +000015221999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1532
1533 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
1534 needs to be treated as zero.
1535
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +000015361999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1537
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +00001538 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add -N option to allow the user to specify
1539 exactly how many inodes he/she wishes.
Theodore Ts'o5515e6b1999-01-05 07:25:06 +00001540
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +00001541 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
1542 program if the -V option is given.
1543
1544 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
1545 through a directory.
1546
Theodore Ts'o93ab9d71999-01-02 04:04:42 +000015471999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1548
1549 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
1550 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
1551 /etc/fstab file.
1552 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
1553 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
1554
15551998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1556
1557 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
1558 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
1559
Theodore Ts'o556ad131998-12-19 08:10:58 +000015601998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1565
1566 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
1567 seperated", instead of common separated)
1568
Theodore Ts'o5a679c81998-12-03 16:40:38 +000015691998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1572
15731998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1574
1575 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
1576 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
1577 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
1578
Theodore Ts'o1dde43f1998-11-14 04:18:28 +000015791998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1580
1581 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
1582
1583 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
1584 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
1585 things look nice on an 80 character display.

15871998-10-12 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1588
1589 * mke2fs.c (usage): Add the sparse-super-flag to the usage
1590 message.

1609 * badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration.
1610
1611 * fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't
1612 trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is,
1613 it isn't pretty.)
1614
16151998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1616
1617 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number
1618 and exit.
1619
Theodore Ts'o4bf5fbf1998-05-14 22:43:10 +000016201998-05-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1621

1626
1627 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
1628 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
1629 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
1630 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
1631 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1632
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +000016331998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1634

1636
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +00001637 * e2label.c: Fix -Wall warning by making functions static.
1638
16391998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1640
1641 * chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may
1642 only be set or cleared by the superuser.
1643
1644 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
1645 up-to-date.
1646
1647 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that
1648 labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will
1649 be truncated.
1650
1651 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
1652 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
1653 that the label will be truncated.
1654
1655 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1656 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1657 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1658
Theodore Ts'obbfa3aa1998-03-21 07:12:46 +000016591998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1665
1666 * partinfo.c (main): The ioctl BLKGETSIZE requires a long, not an
1667 int.
1668
Theodore Ts'o92bcc591998-02-16 22:29:34 +00001669Sun Feb 1 16:53:36 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1670
1671 * badblocks.8: Update documentation to note that output format
1672 of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or
1673 mke2fs -l.
1674
1675 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with
1676 bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the
1677 first one).
1678
Theodore Ts'oca8abba1998-01-19 14:55:24 +00001679Mon Dec 1 17:01:04 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1684
1685 * fsck.c:
1686 * chattr.c: Remove #include of getopt.h, since it's not needed.
1687
1688 * tune2fs.c (main):
1689 * lsattr.c (main):
1690 * badblocks.c (main):
1691 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1692 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
1693 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
1694 unsigned.
1695
Theodore Ts'od163b091997-10-03 17:42:28 +00001696Fri Oct 3 13:38:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1697
1698 * mke2fs.c (parse_raid_opts): Make parse_raid_opts return a void,
1699 to fix a -Wall warning.
1700
Theodore Ts'o00e54331997-09-16 02:13:52 +00001701Mon Sep 15 22:07:12 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1705 * lsattr.c (main):
1706 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1707 * chattr.c (main):
1708 * badblocks.c (main): Declare main to return an int, as required.
1709 Make sure main always ends with an exit(0). (Some
1710 programs weren't doing this, and thus were returning a
1711 random exit value.)
1712
Theodore Ts'oab6b8ab1997-07-14 19:28:55 +00001713Mon Jul 14 15:27:29 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
1714
1715 * e2label.c: New file contributed by Andries Brouwer which
1716 provides an easy-to-use interface to modify the filesystem
1717 label.
1718
1719 * Makefile.in (SPROGS): Add Makefile support to build e2label
1720

1726
1727 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Adjust the number of columns printed when
1728 displaying the superblock backups to avoid running over
1729 80 columns when making a really big disk.

1734 mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor typos and grammer
1735 oops found by Bill Hawes (whawes@star.net).
1736
Theodore Ts'of635d7f1997-05-09 02:50:16 +00001737 * mke2fs.c (test_disk): Pass the blocksize to the bad blocks
1738 command so that all of the filesystem gets tested in the
1739 case where the blocksize 2048 or 4096.
1740
Theodore Ts'oa29f4d31997-04-29 21:26:48 +00001741Thu Apr 24 12:16:42 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1742
1743 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10
1744
1745Thu Apr 24 09:52:47 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1746
1747 * mke2fs.c: Added new option -R, which specifies RAID options.
1748 Currently the only supported RAID option is "stride" which
1749 specifies the stripe width in RAID filesystem. This is
1750 used to aid in the placement of the inode and block
1751 bitmaps.
1752
1753 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Added warnings that the sparse
1754 superblock option isn't yet supported by most kernels.

1757
1758 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the default filesystem revision be 0, not
1759 1. (Since some people are still worried about 1.2.13
1760 compatibility).
1761
1762Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1778
1779 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): List the offsets of the inode and block
1780 bitmaps, and the inode table. List the block boundaries
1781 for the groups.
1782
1783Sat Apr 5 11:55:52 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1785 * tune2fs.c (main): Implement the -s flag allows the user to
1786 set and reset the sparse superblock flag.
1787
1788 * mke2fs.c (PRS): By default generate DYNAMIC revision
1789 filesystems. The -s flag controls whether or not the
1790 sparse superblock flag is set.
1791 (PRS): Change to allow the user to specify the true
1792 maximum number of blocks per group to reflect the
1793 blocksize.
1794
Theodore Ts'o19c78dc1997-04-29 16:17:09 +00001795Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

1798
1799Thu Mar 6 17:15:05 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1800
1801 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Set the root directory's i_uid and
1802 i_gid to be the real user and group id.
1803
1804Tue Mar 4 10:14:33 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1805
1806 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add more intelligent error
1807 messages when the device doesn't exist.
1808
1809Sat Mar 1 10:43:32 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1810
1811 * fsck.c (main): Fix bug where the PATH environment variable isn't
1812 set when it is unset.
1813
1814Tue Jan 14 12:30:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1815
1816 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables
1817 where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop.
1818 This caused the inode table to not be correctly
1819 initialized.
1820
1821Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1822
1823 * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy().
1824
1825 * findsuper.c: Use time_t for ctime(), not __u32.
1826
1827Sat Dec 28 23:39:18 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1828
1829 * badblocks.c: Adapted -vv modifications from Rik Faith so that
1830 they frequently update the block number field.
1831
1832 * badblocks.8.in: Document the optional start-block parameter
1833
1834Mon Oct 14 11:52:58 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1867 (SPROGS): Use @FSCK_PROG@ instead of fsck.
1868
1869Thu Aug 22 00:51:44 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1870
1871 * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a
1872 sparc.
1873

1877 and fix sent by Charles Howes, chowes@eznet.ca)
1878
1879Fri Aug 9 11:52:42 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1880
1881 * tune2fs.8.in:
1882 * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume
1883 label, the -M option which sets the last mounted
1884 directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID.
1885
1886 * mke2fs.8.in:
1887 * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the
1888 creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if
1889 applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets
1890 the volume label, and the -M option which sets the last
1891 mounted directory.
1892
1893Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card <card@bbj.linux.eu.org>
1894
1895 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to
1896 avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used
1897 and no version number is specified.
1898
Theodore Ts'o62c06f71997-04-29 14:34:47 +00001899Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1900
1901 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
1902
1903Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1904
1905 * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2
1906 libraries.
1907
Theodore Ts'o7f88b041997-04-26 14:48:50 +00001908Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1909
1910 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
1911
1912Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1913
1914 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
1915 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
1916
1917Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1918
1919 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.
1920
1921 * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode
1922 revision.
1923
1924Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1925
1926 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
1927 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1928 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1929 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1930 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1931 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1932 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1933 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1934 option turned on.
1935
Theodore Ts'o74becf31997-04-26 14:37:06 +00001936Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1938 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
1939
1940Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1941
1942 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
1943 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
1944 vs. /dev/hda1)
1945
1946Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1947
1948 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1949 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1950 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1951 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1952 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1953
1954Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1955
1956 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
1957 ext2fs_test_bit().
1958
Theodore Ts'o297f47a1997-04-26 14:25:20 +00001959Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1960
1961 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1962 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
1963
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +00001964Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1965
1966 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1967
1968Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1969
1970 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1971 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1972 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1973
1974Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1975
1976 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
1977 the same order.
1978
1979Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1980
1981 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1982 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1983
1984 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
1985 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
1986 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
1987 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
1988
1989Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1990
1991 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
1992 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
1993 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
1994 check.
1995
1996Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1997
1998 * badblocks.8:
1999 * chattr.1:
2000 * dumpe2fs.8:
2001 * fsck.8:
2002 * lsattr.1:
2003 * mke2fs.8:
2004 * mklost+found.8:
2005 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
2006
2007Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2008
2009 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
2010 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
2011 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
2012
2013 * mke2fs.8:
2014 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
2015
2016Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
2017
2018 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
2019 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
2020 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
2021
2022Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
2023
2024 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
2025 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
2026 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
2027 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
2028 advisable.
2029
2030 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
2031 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
2032 alloca is not portable!
2033
2034 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
2035 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
2036 /etc/fstab.
2037
2038 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
2039
2040Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
2041
2042 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
2043 benefit.
2044
2045 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
2046
2047 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
2048 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
2049
2050Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
2051
2052 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
2053 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
2054
2055Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
2056
2057 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
2058
2059 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
2060 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
2061
2062 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
2063
2064Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
2065
2066 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
2067 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
2068 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
2069 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
2070
2071 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
2072 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
2073 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
2074 statically sized buffer.
2075 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
2076 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
2077
2078 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
2079 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
2080 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
2081 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
2082 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
2083
2084 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
2085 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
2086 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
2087 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
2088 (test_rw): Ditto.
2089
2090 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
2091 support separate compilation directories.
2092
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +00002093Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
2094
2095 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
2096 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
2097 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
2098 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
2099
2100 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
2101 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
2102 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
2103 very large partition.
2104
2105 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
2106 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
2107 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
2108
2109 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
2110 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
2111 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
2112 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
2113 ioctl, which most do.)
2114
2115 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
2116 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
2117 during 0.5b development.)
2118
2119Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
2120
2121 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
2122 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
2123 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
2124 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
2125 measure).
2126
2127 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
2128 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
2129 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
2130
2131Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
2132
2133 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
2134
2135 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
2136 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
2137 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
2138
2139Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2140
2141 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
2142 new options.
2143 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
2144
2145Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
2146
2147 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
2148 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
2149 all partitions should be checked.
2150
2151Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
2152
2153 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
2154 structures.
2155
2156 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
2157 the effective uid.
2158
2159Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2160
2161 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
2162 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
2163
2164Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2165
2166 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
2167

2169
2170 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
2171 read-only test.
2172
2173 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
2174
2175 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
2176
2177 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
2178
2179 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
2180

2184
2185 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
2186 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
2187 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
2188 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
2189 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
2190
2191 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
2192 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
2193 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
2194 statistics if necessary.
