1999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
1999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
through the calculations to determine the parameters of
the filesystem the system would make.
1999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
* fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
1999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
* badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
using blocksizes larger than 1k.
1999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
* uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
1999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
* fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
-A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
the filesystem appears to be mounted.
* get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
UUID=bar type specifications.
1999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
* badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
clear out a large block number.
1999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
* mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
appears mounted if the force option is given.
1999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
* mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
1999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
code cleanups.
1999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
1999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
* uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
generate UUIDs.
1999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
1999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
1999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
1999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
fsck pass structure.
(check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
to finish.
1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.8.in: Clarified and expanded the documentation for the -A
switch.
1999-01-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
needs to be treated as zero.
1999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow the user to specify exactly how many
inodes he/she wishes.
* chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
program if the -V option is given.
* chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
through a directory.
1999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
/etc/fstab file.
(execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
filesystem which we are checking (user request).
1998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
1998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

* Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
1998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
1998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
* mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
things look nice on an 80 character display.
1998-10-12 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (usage): Add the sparse-super-flag to the usage
message.

* mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number
and exit.
1998-05-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

option.
1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* e2label.8.in: New man page to document the e2label function.

longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
that the label will be truncated.
* mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Fixed spelling typo in warning
message. Fixed up -Wall warnings in file.

of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or
mke2fs -l.
* mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with
bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the
first one).

* tune2fs.c (main):
* lsattr.c (main):
* badblocks.c (main):
* dumpe2fs.c (main):
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
unsigned.
Fri Oct 3 13:38:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (parse_raid_opts): Make parse_raid_opts return a void,
to fix a -Wall warning.

* tune2fs.c (main):
* mklost+found.c (main):
* lsattr.c (main):
* dumpe2fs.c (main):
* chattr.c (main):
* badblocks.c (main): Declare main to return an int, as required.
Make sure main always ends with an exit(0). (Some
programs weren't doing this, and thus were returning a
random exit value.)
Mon Jul 14 15:27:29 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
* e2label.c: New file contributed by Andries Brouwer which
provides an easy-to-use interface to modify the filesystem

superblock option isn't yet supported by most kernels.
Wed Apr 23 22:42:51 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the default filesystem revision be 0, not

(main): Allow the interval to be specified in seconds,
mostly for debugging.
Tue Aug 27 17:27:43 1996 Miles Bader <miles@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* Makefile.in (SMANPAGES): Use @FSCK_MAN@ instead of fsck.8.

revision.
Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
option turned on.
Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
vs. /dev/hda1)
Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
submitted by Mike Jagdis)
Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
ext2fs_test_bit().
Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
* Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
*before* we try to determine the size of the device.
Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
the same order.
Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

function to determine if the device is mounted.
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
check.
Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>

blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
advisable.
* chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
* lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
alloca is not portable!
* fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
user using the -t option, let it override the type in
/etc/fstab.
* fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
* chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
benefit.
* The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
* badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
* badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
* chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
* mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
(get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
(check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
(main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
statically sized buffer.
(PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
* chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
* lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
* mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
* badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
(flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
(test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
(test_rw): Ditto.
* Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
support separate compilation directories.
Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
* mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
* badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
very large partition.
* badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
spurious seek errors aren't reported.
* mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
ioctl, which most do.)
* fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
during 0.5b development.)
Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
* mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
measure).
Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
* fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
* fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
extract the exit status. In other cases, return
FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
* tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
new options.
Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
* fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
/etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
all partitions should be checked.
Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
* dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
structures.
* mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
the effective uid.
Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
* tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
-r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
* fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
* badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
read-only test.
(do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
* chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
* lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
* mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
(valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
* mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
(alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
statistics if necessary.
