4 device_already_active which could cause infinite loops if
5 we don't know the base_device of the filesystem.
6
Theodore Ts'o07025ae2001-05-21 01:39:02 +00007 * fsck.c: Make sure all exit status codes returned by fsck are
8 consistent with the error codes documented in the fsck man
9 page.

33
34 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Integrated changes from Andreas Dilger which
35 make the revision superblock field be set to the correct
36 value depending on if superblock features are set.
37
Theodore Ts'o6d56d512001-05-12 15:46:21 +0000382001-05-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

43 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Fix typo; removed
44 excess "anonymous" in the AVAILABILITY section.
45
Theodore Ts'o6d56d512001-05-12 15:46:21 +000046 * chattr.1.in, lsattr.1.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update URL location of

54
Theodore Ts'o609c9d02001-05-05 06:45:05 +000055 * fsck.8.in: Add explicit language to describe how options get
56 passed to filesystem-specific checkers.
57
Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +000058 * badblocks.8.in: Fixed man page to describe the first optional
59 parameter to badblocks as last_block, instead of
60 num_blocks. (Debian bug #87216)
61
62 * badblocks.c: Change the blocks_count variable to be last_count,
63 which is a more accurate description of the variable.
64
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +0000652001-05-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
66

71 http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
72
73 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs
74 to dump out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image
75 file.

Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +000077 * e2image.c (main): Fix format of e2image to be easier to be parse
78 by ext2fs_open().
79
Theodore Ts'o45d70862001-05-01 15:44:37 +0000802001-05-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
81
82 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine
83 the base device, we should assume that the device is
84 already active in order to force serialization.
85
Theodore Ts'oce57f142001-04-26 04:25:39 +0000862001-04-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
87
88 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Interpret -c 0 as -c -1 (for
89 backwards compatibility with older kernels). -c 0 makes
90 more sense to users.
91
Theodore Ts'o4d0f2282001-04-23 20:58:03 +0000922001-04-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
93
94 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): If the force flag is given,
95 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
96 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
97 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
98 from journal device.
99 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
100 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
101 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
102
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +00001032001-04-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
104
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +0000105 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
106 documentation for the extern journal device support.
107
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000108 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage
109 message.
110
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +00001112001-04-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
112
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +0000113 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
114 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
115
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000116 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
117 number to be treated as a journal size.
118
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000119 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
120 look nicer.
121
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000122 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
123 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
124 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
125 entire device to get zero'ed.
126
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +00001272001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
128
129 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +0000130 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 102,400 file system
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000131 blocks.
132
133 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
134
135 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
136 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
137 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
138 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
139 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
140 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
141 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
142 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
143 using the absolute size of the journal.
144
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +00001452001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
146
147 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
148 Also handle the case where the default journal size
149 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
150 the filesystem will be checked.
151
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00001522001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
153
154 * e2image.c (main): Add code to write the e2image header.
155
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +00001562001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
157
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000158 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
159 sparse_super.
160
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000161 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
162 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
163 in hex.
164
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000165 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
166 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
167
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00001682001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
169
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000170 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
171 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
172 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
173 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
174 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
175 with the rest of the options out there.)
176
177 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
178 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
179 from the external journal's filesystem list.
180
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000181 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
182 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
183 given a filesystem size.
184
185 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
186 small as 1MB.
187
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000188 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
189 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
190
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00001912001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
192
193 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
194 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
195 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
196
197 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
198 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
199 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
200 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
201 have been created via separate step.
202
203 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
204 information about an external journal device.
205
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00002062001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
207
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000208 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
209 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
210 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
211 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
212 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
213 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
214 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
215 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
216
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000217 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
218
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000219 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
220 stdout after printing in-progress message.
221 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
222 the mount status of the device.
223
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +00002242001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
225
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000226 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
227 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
228 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
229 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
230 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
231
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000232 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
233 flush the device.
234
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000235 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
236
Theodore Ts'o83238152001-01-09 00:16:26 +00002372001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
238
239 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
240 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
241 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
242
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00002432001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
244
245 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
246 prototype.
247
248 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
249 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
250 complaints.
251
252 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
253
254 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
255 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
256
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00002572001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
258
259 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
260 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
261 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
262 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
263
264 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
265 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
266 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
267
268 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
269 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
270
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00002712001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
272
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000273 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
274 struct ext2_super_block.
275
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000276 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
277 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
278 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000279 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
280 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
281 using our own version now).
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000282
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +00002832000-12-31 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
284
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000285 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
286 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
287 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
288 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
289 the parallel_root option.
290
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000291 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
292 the file attributes.
293
294 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
295 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
296
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000297 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
298 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
299 support for the journaled data flag.
300
301 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
302
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00003032000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
304
305 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
306
307 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
308 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
309
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00003102000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
311
312 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
313 names.
314
315 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
316 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
317 instead of core dumping.
318
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00003192000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
320
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000321 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
322 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
323 journal creation routines for this purpose.
324
325 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
326 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
327
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000328 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
329 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
330
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00003312000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
332
333 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
334 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
335 memory.
336
337 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
338 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
339
340 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
341
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00003422000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
343
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000344 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
345 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
346 #63442)
347
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000348 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
349 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
350 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
351 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
352 #65267)
353
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000354 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
355 group names to uid's before storing them in the
356 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
357
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00003582000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
359
360 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
361 option=argument style options, and add support for
362 creating filesystems with external journals.
363
364 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
365

367
368 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
369 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
370
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00003712000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
372
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000373 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
374 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
375 at this point.)
376
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000377 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
378 character labels.
379
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000380 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
381 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
382 other devices.
383
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000384 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
385 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
386 journal.
387
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00003882000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
389
390 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
391 didn't catch.
392
Theodore Ts'o3f1e9a52000-09-12 21:21:52 +00003932000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
394
395 * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
396 systems with four IDE interfaces.
397
Theodore Ts'od7e39b02000-09-11 17:01:35 +00003982000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
399
400 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
401 fails.
402
403 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
404 the inode table location in non-hex format.
405
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00004062000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
407
408 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
409 we can't find the device using the name given by
410 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
411 into the kernel, but not mounted.)
412
Theodore Ts'o80c22c92000-08-14 15:32:11 +00004132000-06-27 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolabs.com>
414
415 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
416 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
417 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
418
419 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
420
Theodore Ts'oe41784e2000-08-14 14:44:15 +00004212000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
422
423 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
424 zap_sect.
425 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
426 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
427
Theodore Ts'o28412de2000-07-27 02:45:55 +00004282000-07-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
429
430 * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
431 fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
432
Theodore Ts'of9e67062000-07-13 23:25:54 +00004332000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
434
435 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
436
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +00004372000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
438
439 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
440 are mutually exclusive.
441
442 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
443 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
444 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
445 the long run.)
446
447 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
448 variable before going into the write verification loop.
449 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
450 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
451 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
452 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
453 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
454 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
455 routines anymore.
456
457 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
458 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
459 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
460 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
461 format string.
462
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00004632000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
464
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +0000465 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
466 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
467 the progress bar display logic.
468
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +0000469 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
470 max_mount_count is negative.
471
472 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
473 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
474 check.
475
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +0000476 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
477 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
478 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
479 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
480 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
481 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
482
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000483 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
484 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
485 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
486
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000487 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
488 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000489 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
490 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000491
492 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
493 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
494 device as a default.
495
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +00004962000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
497
498 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
499 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
500 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
501 old, overly complicated logic.
502 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
503 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
504 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
505
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +00005062000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
507
508 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
509 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
510 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
511 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
512
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00005132000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
514
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +0000515 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
516 or LABEL= specification is given.
517
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +0000518 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
519 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
520 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
521 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
522 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
523 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
524
525 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
526 proceed_question that was busted due to the
527 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
528 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
529 cleared of the previous question's newline.
530

532
533 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
534 support fdatasync().
535
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00005362000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
537
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +0000538 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
539 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
540 manually define optarg and optind.
541
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +0000542 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
543 Beattie.
544
545 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
546 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
547 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
548 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
549
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +0000550 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
551 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
552 address.
553 chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
554

556
557 * chattr.1.in:
558 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
559
560 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
561
562 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
563
564 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
565 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
566
567 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
568 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
569 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
570 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
571 the same flag.
572
573 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
574 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
575 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.

Theodore Ts'od9c56d32000-02-08 00:47:55 +0000579 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
580 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
581 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
582 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
583 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
584
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +0000585 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
586 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
587 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
588 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
589 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
590 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
591
592 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
593
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +00005942000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
595
596 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
597 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
598 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
599 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
600 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
601
602 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
603 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
604
605 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h

Theodore Ts'o879ac922000-01-18 20:59:11 +00006122000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
613
614 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
615 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
616 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
617 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
618
619 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
620 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
621 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
622 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
623 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
624 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
625 Finally, the original data is written back.
626
627 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
628 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
629 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
630 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
631 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
632 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
633 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
634 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
635 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
636 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
637 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
638 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
639 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
640 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
641 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
642
643 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
644 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
645 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
646 randomly.
647
648 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
649 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
650
651 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
652 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
653 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
654 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
655 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
656 and want the host hard drive to flush.
657
658 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
659 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
660 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
661 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
662 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
663 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
664 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
665 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
666 scan).
667
668 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
669 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
670 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
671 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
672 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
673 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
674 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
675 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
676 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
677 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
678 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
679 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
680 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
681 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
682 completely reliable.
683
684 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
685 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
686 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
687 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
688 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
689 for your information.
690
691 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
692 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
693 which I install which will write back whatever original
694 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
695 (except SIGKILL, of course).
696
697 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
698 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
699 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
700 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
701 could learn how to update the manpage and other
702 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
703 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
704 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
705 should be in the distribution."

708
709 * Really fix the bug where "fsck -As" will actually allow
710 interactive fsck's. (For those people who like to do
711 interactive fsck's in the /etc/rc scripts!?!)

720 * mke2fs.c: Change log2() and log10() to int_log2() and

722 sparc to #ifdef __sparc__.
723

Theodore Ts'o28e11941999-10-26 18:17:20 +0000746 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.17
747
7481999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
749
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +0000750 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
751 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
752 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
753
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +0000754 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
755 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
756 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
757 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
758
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +0000759 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +0000760 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
761 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
762 gcc warnings.
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +0000763
Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +0000764 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
765 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
766 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
767 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
768 the child process.
769
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +0000770 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
771 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
772
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00007731999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
774
775 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
776 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +0000777 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
778 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
779 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +0000780
781 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
782 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
783 an infinite loop.
784
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +00007851999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
786
Theodore Ts'o614fdfd1999-10-23 03:19:51 +0000787 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
788
7891999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
790
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +0000791 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
792 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
793 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
794 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
795
796 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
797 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
798 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
799 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
800
Theodore Ts'ocaf8ce41999-10-21 19:56:34 +00008011999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
802
803 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
804 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
805 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
806 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
807 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
808
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00008091999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
810
Theodore Ts'o671cbfa1999-10-20 18:14:23 +0000811 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
812 changing the sparse superblock option
813
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +0000814 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
815 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
816 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
817 unhandled SIGUSR1.
818
8191999-09-15 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o76714331999-10-20 18:06:29 +0000820
821 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
822 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
823
Theodore Ts'o27401561999-09-14 20:11:19 +00008241999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
825
826 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
827 Dirson.
828
829 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
830 kernels.
831
832 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
833 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
834 flag.
835
836 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
837 (header-only).
838
8391999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
840
841 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
842 superblock option.
843
8441999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o657cb971999-07-30 23:19:10 +0000845
846 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
847
Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +00008481999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
849
850 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
851 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
852 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
853 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
854 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
855 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
856 the filesystem the system would make.
857
8581999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
859
860 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
861 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
862 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
863 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
864 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
865
8661999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +0000867
868 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
869 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
870 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
871
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +00008721999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +0000873
874 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
875 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
876
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +00008771999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +0000878
879 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
880 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
881 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
882 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
883 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
884 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
885
886 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
887 UUID=bar type specifications.
888
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +00008891999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
890
891 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
892 clear out a large block number.
893
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +00008941999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
895
896 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
897 appears mounted if the force option is given.
898
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +00008991999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
900
901 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
902 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
903
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +00009041999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
905
906 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
907 code cleanups.
908
Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +00009091999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
910
911 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
912 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
913 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
914 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
915
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +00009161999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
917
918 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
919 generate UUIDs.
920
9211999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
922
923 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
924 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
925
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +00009261999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
927
928 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
929 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
930 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
931 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
932
9331999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
934
935 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
936 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
937 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
938 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
939 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
940 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
941
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +00009421999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
943
944 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
945 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
946 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
947 fsck pass structure.
948 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
949 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
950 to finish.
951
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +00009521999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

959 switch.
960
Theodore Ts'o665f7101999-01-08 13:33:39 +00009611999-01-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
962
963 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
964 needs to be treated as zero.

969 exactly how many inodes he/she wishes.
Theodore Ts'o5515e6b1999-01-05 07:25:06 +0000970
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +0000971 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
972 program if the -V option is given.
973
974 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
975 through a directory.
976
Theodore Ts'o93ab9d71999-01-02 04:04:42 +00009771999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
978
979 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
980 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
981 /etc/fstab file.
982 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
983 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
984
9851998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
986
987 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
988 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
989
Theodore Ts'o556ad131998-12-19 08:10:58 +00009901998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

995
996 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
997 seperated", instead of common separated)
998
Theodore Ts'o5a679c81998-12-03 16:40:38 +00009991998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1000
1001 * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
1002
10031998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1004
1005 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
1006 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
1007 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
1008
Theodore Ts'o1dde43f1998-11-14 04:18:28 +000010091998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1010
1011 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
1012
1013 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
1014 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
1015 things look nice on an 80 character display.
1016
10171998-10-12 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1018

1039 * badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration.
1040
1041 * fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't
1042 trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is,
1043 it isn't pretty.)
1044
10451998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1046
1047 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number
1048 and exit.
1049
Theodore Ts'o4bf5fbf1998-05-14 22:43:10 +000010501998-05-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1051
1052 * fsck.c (ignore): Remove check for filesystems with the noauto
1053 option.
1054
Theodore Ts'o7e44f241998-04-01 03:16:29 +000010551998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1056
1057 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
1058 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
1059 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
1060 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
1061 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1062
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +000010631998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1066
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +00001067 * e2label.c: Fix -Wall warning by making functions static.
1068
10691998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1072 only be set or cleared by the superuser.
1073
1074 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
1075 up-to-date.
1076
1077 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that
1078 labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will
1079 be truncated.
1080
1081 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
1082 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
1083 that the label will be truncated.
1084
1085 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1086 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1087 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1088
Theodore Ts'obbfa3aa1998-03-21 07:12:46 +000010891998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1100
1101 * badblocks.8: Update documentation to note that output format
1102 of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or
1103 mke2fs -l.
1104
1105 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with
1106 bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the
1107 first one).
1108

1121 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1122 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
1123 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
1124 unsigned.

1176
1177 * mke2fs.c: Added new option -R, which specifies RAID options.
1178 Currently the only supported RAID option is "stride" which
1179 specifies the stripe width in RAID filesystem. This is
1180 used to aid in the placement of the inode and block
1181 bitmaps.
1182
1183 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Added warnings that the sparse

1208
1209 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): List the offsets of the inode and block
1210 bitmaps, and the inode table. List the block boundaries
1211 for the groups.
1212

1216 set and reset the sparse superblock flag.
1217

1221 (PRS): Change to allow the user to specify the true
1222 maximum number of blocks per group to reflect the
1223 blocksize.
1224

1242 set when it is unset.
1243
1244Tue Jan 14 12:30:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1245
1246 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables
1247 where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop.
1248 This caused the inode table to not be correctly
1249 initialized.
1250
1251Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1252
1253 * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy().
1254
1255 * findsuper.c: Use time_t for ctime(), not __u32.
1256
1257Sat Dec 28 23:39:18 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1260 they frequently update the block number field.
1261
1262 * badblocks.8.in: Document the optional start-block parameter
1263

1300
1301 * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a

1310
1311 * tune2fs.8.in:
1312 * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume
1313 label, the -M option which sets the last mounted
1314 directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID.
1315
1316 * mke2fs.8.in:
1317 * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the
1318 creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if
1319 applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets

1322
1323Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card <card@bbj.linux.eu.org>
1324
1325 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to
1326 avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used
1327 and no version number is specified.
1328
Theodore Ts'o62c06f71997-04-29 14:34:47 +00001329Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1343
1344 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
1345 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
1346
1347Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1348
1349 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.

1353
1354Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1355
1356 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
1357 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1358 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1359 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1360 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1361 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1362 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1363 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1364 option turned on.
1365
Theodore Ts'o74becf31997-04-26 14:37:06 +00001366Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1375
1376Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1377
1378 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1379 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1380 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1381 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1382 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1383
1384Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1385
1386 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to

1390
1391 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1392 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.

1397
1398Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1399
1400 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1401 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1402 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1403
1404Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1405
1406 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in

1409Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1410
1411 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1412 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1413
1414 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
1415 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
1416 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
1417 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
1418
1419Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1420
1421 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
1422 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
1423 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
1424 check.
1425
1426Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1427

1447
1448 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
1449 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
1450 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
1451
1452Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1453
1454 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
1455 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
1456 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
1457 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
1458 advisable.
1459
1460 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
1461 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
1462 alloca is not portable!
1463
1464 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
1465 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
1466 /etc/fstab.

1468 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
1469
1470Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)

1481
1482 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1483 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
1484
1485Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1486
1487 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
1488
1489 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
1490 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
1491
1492 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
1493
1494Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1495
1496 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
1497 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
1498 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
1499 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1500
1501 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
1502 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1503 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
1504 statically sized buffer.
1505 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1506 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1507
1508 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
1509 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
1510 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
1511 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
1512 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
1513
1514 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
1515 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
1516 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
1517 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
1518 (test_rw): Ditto.
1519
1520 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1521 support separate compilation directories.

1524
1525 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
1526 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
1527 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
1528 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
1529
1530 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
1531 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
1532 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
1533 very large partition.
1534
1535 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
1536 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
1537 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
1538
1539 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
1540 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
1541 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
1542 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
1543 ioctl, which most do.)
1544
1545 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
1546 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
1547 during 0.5b development.)
1548
1549Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1550
1551 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
1552 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
1553 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
1554 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
1555 measure).
1556
1557 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
1558 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
1559 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
1560
1561Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1562
1563 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
1564
1565 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
1566 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
1567 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
1568
1569Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1570
1571 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
1572 new options.
1573 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
1574
1575Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1576
1577 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
1578 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
1579 all partitions should be checked.
1580
1581Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1582
1583 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
1584 structures.
1585
1586 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
1587 the effective uid.
1588
1589Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1590
1591 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
1592 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
1593
1594Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1595
1596 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
1597
1598Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
1599
1600 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
1601 read-only test.
1602
1603 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
1604
1605 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
1606
1607 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
1608
1609 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
1610
1611 (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
1612
1613Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1614
1615 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
1616 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
1617 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
1618 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
1619 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
1620
1621 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
1622 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
1623 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
1624 statistics if necessary.
