2
3 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc, main): Make dumpe2fs more robust so that
4 if there is an error reading the block/inode bitmaps, it
5 will still print out the contents of the block group
6 descriptors.

37
Theodore Ts'o41ec7bb2002-09-29 22:37:40 -0400382002-09-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
39
Theodore Ts'odbfb3f02002-09-29 22:42:27 -040040 * get_device_by_label.c: Applied sourceforge patch #613447, which
41 adds support for reiserfs volumes for LABEL= and UUID=
42 fstab entries.
43
Theodore Ts'o41ec7bb2002-09-29 22:37:40 -040044 * badblocks.c (main): Appled sourceforge patch #600451, which
45 addresses sourceforge bug #600388, by AEF. This allows
46 badblocks to work correctly on read-only devices such as
47 CD-ROM's, DVD's, etc.

Theodore Ts'o82b39c92002-09-29 19:08:38 -0400492002-09-24 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
50
51 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Clarify manual pages about using the
52 caret ('^') character to negate feature sets when using
53 the -O option. Define the has_journal feature to avoid
54 confusion about what ^has_journal means.
55
Theodore Ts'oc6633052002-09-24 01:26:50 -0400562001-09-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
57
58 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.29
59
Theodore Ts'o84bd5502002-09-24 00:13:19 -0400602002-09-24 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
61
62 * fsck.c: If the bone-headed user enters the filename twice, the
63 -R option which skips the root filesystem will skip all of
64 them. (Addresses Debian bug #159423). Note! This is not
65 a precedent for dealing intelligently with any other kind
66 of doubled entry in /etc/fstab!
67
Theodore Ts'o843049c2002-09-22 15:37:40 -0400682002-09-22 root <tytso@mit.edu>
69
70 * mke2fs.c (main): Enable directory indexing by default.
71
72 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set): Allow directory indexing flag to
73 be set. If so, set the default hash to be TEA, and
74 initialize the hash seed to a random value.
75
Theodore Ts'of9e4abf2002-09-21 06:46:43 -0400762002-09-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
77
78 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Fix bug which caused
79 LABEL='xxx' to not work correctly when using LVM.
80 (Reversed sense of error check reported by ateeq@hotpop.com)

87
Theodore Ts'o118d7da2002-08-17 23:01:22 -040088 * findfs.8.in: New man page.
89
90 * tune2fs.c (do_findfs): If tune2fs is executed with argv[0] set
91 to findfs, then it will interpret argv[1] as one of
92 LABEL=xxx or UUID=xxx and translate it to a device name.
93
94 * get_device_by_label.c (uuidcache_init): Moved code which
95 interpreted /proc/partitions into read_partitions(), and
96 then added support for interpreting /proc/evms/volumes in
97 read_evms(). uuidcache_init() calls both read_evms() and
98 read_partitions().
99
Theodore Ts'o1f22ce32002-08-17 18:16:29 -0400100 * mke2fs.8.in: Add a common usage of the -n option. (Addresses
101 Debian Bug #146437)
102
Theodore Ts'oa1411352002-08-17 17:39:39 -0400103 * fsck.c (main): If no filesystems are specified on the command
104 line, default to -As. (Addresses Debian Bug #153102)
105
106 * badblocks.8.in: Clarify why it's bad to do a non-destructive
107 test on a r/o mounted filesystem. (Addresses Debian Bug
108 #131350)
109
Theodore Ts'o023d1112002-08-17 14:44:56 -0400110 * chattr.1.in: Document the compression attribute flags E, X, and
111 Z, and explain that chattr can't set or set these flags.
112 (Addresses Debian Bug #151990)
113
Theodore Ts'of044b4d2002-08-17 13:32:21 -0400114 * fsck.8.in: Fix typo in man page, and clarified text regarding
115 options specifiers for -t option. (Addresses Debian bug
116 #145044)
117
118 * mke2fs.c (main): If there is a problem zeroing blocks at the end
119 of the filesystem, don't abort mke2fs. Addresses Debian
120 bug #155007.
121
Theodore Ts'oed909bb2002-08-16 17:03:59 -04001222002-08-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
123
124 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Check for an extended
125 attribute block before checking for has_valid_blocks.
126
Theodore Ts'o4cae0452002-07-21 14:14:03 -04001272002-07-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
128
129 * fsck.8.in: Document new fsck exit code, FSCK_CANCELED.
130
131 * fsck.c: Trap SIGINT and SIGTERM, and relay it to all of the
132 child fsck processes.
133
Theodore Ts'o70988102002-07-14 08:00:00 -04001342002-07-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
135
136 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Clear the buffer *after* testing for the
137 BSD sector label. Otherwise the first 512 bytes don't get
138 zapped. (Addresses Debian bug #147256.)
139
Theodore Ts'of0865ce2002-07-02 10:08:27 -04001402002-07-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
141
142 * mke2fs.8.in: Cleaned up man page, and made it a bit more
143 OS-agnostic. Addresses Debian bug #144621. Hope this
144 makes the Hurd whiners happy. :-)
145
Theodore Ts'o5cfd7402002-06-28 10:47:24 -04001462002-06-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

152 * chattr.c: Applied patch from Andrew to support the dirsync flag.
153
Andreas Dilgerb21bf262002-06-10 11:05:56 -06001542002-05-22 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
155
156 * mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults): make the default inode ratio at most
157 one inode per block for large blocksizes.
158
Theodore Ts'o31e29a12002-05-17 10:53:07 -04001592002-05-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
160
161 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Determine the page size using sysconf() at
162 runtime, instead of using the Linux system header files.
163
1642002-05-16 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
165
166 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow blocksizes larger than 4k to be specified,
167 with warning printed and the user questioned if blocksize
168 is larger than the system's page size according to the
169 Linux kernel header files. Added better checking for
170 valid inode sizes, and again print a warning message if
171 using a large inode size (since most kernels today don't
172 support this yet).
173
1742002-04-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o7de65772002-04-30 20:22:32 -0400175

183
Theodore Ts'o7ef3bb82002-03-08 03:01:53 -0500184 * mke2fs.c: Check for the BSD disklabel on all architectures, and
185 also check the byte-swapped magic number as well.
186
Theodore Ts'o756df352002-03-07 20:52:12 -05001872002-03-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
188
Theodore Ts'o66938372002-03-08 00:14:46 -0500189 * mke2fs.c: Output warnings to stderr

201 tune2fs.c (main), mklost+found.c (main), badblocks.c
202 (main), e2image.c (main): Newer libintl needs LC_CTYPE to
203 be set in addition to LC_MESSAGES.
204
Andreas Dilger0072f8d2002-02-25 23:11:26 -07002052002-02-25 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
206
207 * mke2fs.c: Add check for mkfs.ext3 and create a journal in
208 this case.
209
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -05002102002-02-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'ob9f40922002-02-24 03:08:57 -0500211
212 * Makefile.in (install): Install hard links for man pages for
213 mkfs.ext2 and mkfs.ext3. Also install hard link for
214 mkfs.ext3. Remove any compressed man pages before
215 installing the man pages.
216

Theodore Ts'o541d1732002-02-23 21:23:26 -0500218
219 * badblocks.8.in: Clarify man page's description of the -f option
220
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -05002212002-02-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o7d4343d2002-02-12 02:34:44 -0500222
223 * get_device_by_label.c: Since on non-STDC compilers, we define
224 away const, include get_device_by_label.h after we include
225 fsck.h.
226
227 * Makefile.in (base_device): Remove use of $<, which is
228 non-portable.
229
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002302002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>

2342002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5599c2f2002-02-03 00:08:52 -0500235
236 * fsck.c (interpret_type): Allow filesystems types of the form
237 "ext3,ext2", etc.
238
239 * fstype.c (identify_fs): Add support for only searching for a
240 specified list of filesystems. Also add support for
241 identifying reiserfs filesystems.
242
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002432002-01-29 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa1069112002-01-29 12:49:14 -0500244

246 fsck programs to be capped via the FSCK_MAX_INST
247 envrionment variable.
248
249 * fsck.8.in: Document all of the environment variables used by fsck.
250
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002512002-01-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o177ab2b2002-01-27 18:23:49 -0500252
253 * tune2fs.8.in: Document the -f flag to tune2fs.
254
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002552002-01-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5493a272002-01-02 14:15:35 -0500256
257 * badblocks.c (main): Open the device as O_RDWR if possible, since
258 fsync() isn't guaranteed to work if the filesystem is
259 opened read-only.
260
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002612001-12-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'od4de4aa2001-12-26 08:58:01 -0500262
263 * tune2fs.8.in, tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options, main): Add
264 support for new option, -T, which allows the user to set
265 the last checked time on the filesystem.
266
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002672001-12-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -0500268
Theodore Ts'o3ed57c22001-12-24 15:01:59 -0500269 * mke2fs.c (main, test_disk): If two -c options are
270 specified, then perform a destructive read/write test
271 of the disk.
272
273 * mke2fs.8.in: Document the double -c option; also encourage users
274 to use -c instead of the -l/-L options since it's too hard
275 for users to get things like the blocksize parameter correct.
276
277 * badblocks.8.in: Encourage users to use the -c option in mke2fs
278 and e2fsck instead of running badblocks directly.
279
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -0500280 * mke2fs.c (create_lost_and_found): The lost+found directory is
281 now created with 0700 permissions, since files which get
282 dropped into that directory may have come from a protected
283 directory, and the system administrator may not deal with
284 immediately. (Addresses Debian bug #118443)
285
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002862001-12-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o19007e52001-12-23 19:33:51 -0500287
288 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: Move linux/jbd.h to
289 ext2fs/kernel-jbd.h, to avoid using the system header
290 file version of hbd.h when using diet glibc (since it
291 forcibly adds /usr/include to the beginning of the
292 include search path.)
293
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05002942001-12-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oeaf4dc52001-12-22 00:04:22 -0500295
296 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Add support to read out
297 information from the LVM proc hierarchy, so that the UUID
298 cache can search the LVM logical volumes for UUID's,
299 labels, etc.
300
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003012001-12-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o0655b102001-12-21 23:59:46 -0500302
303 * dumpe2fs.c (list_bad_blocks): Change to not die if the listing
304 of the bad blocks can't be found. Slimmed down dumpe2fs
305 by eliminating duplicate code paths.
306

311 mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults, zap_sector, PRS),
312 tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device, update_feature_set),
313 util.c (figure_journal_size), util.h: Fix gcc -Wall nits.
314
315 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Fix gcc -Wall nits, and use
316 the stashed inode functions to optimize away system calls.
317
Theodore Ts'o8cf93332001-12-16 02:23:36 -0500318 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: linux/jfs.h has been renamed to
319 linux/jbd.h
320

Theodore Ts'oa5f0bb92001-12-02 19:29:35 +0100322
323 * dumpe2fs.c: Don't print the offset to the bitmap and inode table
324 if it's negative. Also did some generalized code clean up
325 to slim it down the support of the -x option.
326
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003272001-11-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

Theodore Ts'o6ef39202001-11-13 18:49:09 -0500333
334 * util.c (check_plausibility): Use stat64 if available so that
335 check_plausibility() works with files > 2GB.
336
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003372001-11-05 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

343
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500344 * fsck.c (interpret_type): If the "auto" type is specified, make
345 sure interpet_device() is called so that device
346 specifications which use LABEL= or UUID= are translated
347 into a real device name.
348
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003492001-10-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

351 * e2image.c (output_meta_data_blocks): Optimize away excess
352 lseek() calls when creating a sparse file. Fewer system

369
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400370 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect the fact that adding or
371 removing a journal doesn't require running e2fsck.
372
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05003732001-09-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

393
Theodore Ts'o04a96852001-08-30 21:55:26 -0400394 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Now takes a third argument, which is how
395 many sectors to clear out. Fixed up Andreas's patch to
396 make it a bit more efficient/compact.
397
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -06003982001-08-30 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
399
400 * mke2fs.c (main): Zap the second sector of the disk, along with
401 any sectors in the same filesystem block after the superblock.
402 The latter will remove (for example) swapspace signatures
403 on 4kB+ blocksize filesystems. Also when zeroing the "end"
404 of the filesystem don't actually zero the start of a very
405 small device (less than 64 blocks).
406
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -04004072001-08-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

413 mklost+found.c: Remove EXT2FS_VERSION from the version
414 display, since it only confuses people.

419 check_uuid.
420
421 * get_device_by_label.h: Define function prototype for
422 copy_string(), since this was moved from fsck.c to
423 get_device_by_label.c by Andreas's BK changeset.
424
Andreas Dilger2d155762001-08-17 03:48:11 -06004252001-08-17 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
426
427 * get_device_by_label.[ch], fsck.c, util.c: New interpret_spec()
428 function in get_device_by_label.c to allow the use of
429 UUID= or LABEL= when creating filesystems which use external
430 journal dev (e.g. mke2fs -J device=LABEL=<journal_label>).
431
432 * tune2fs.c: Use superblock s_journal_uuid to locate an external
433 journal device instead of s_journal_dev when removing it.
434 Allow opening journal devices to set the label and UUID
435 in the ext2 superblock.
436
437 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Free journal_device after use, as it is
438 malloc'd in interpret spec.
439

447 normal messages are sent to stdout. (Addresses Debian bug
448 #108555.)
449
Theodore Ts'o1d349cc2001-08-15 19:06:55 -0400450 * fsck.8.in: Fixed error in synopsis of the man page.
451
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400452 * fsck.c (check_all): Don't bother to interpret a device where the
Theodore Ts'o685c13f2001-08-15 19:04:59 -0400453 pass number is zero. (Addresses Debian bug #106696.)
454 (main): Print a warning message if there are no devices to
455 be checked. (Addresses Debian bug #107458.)
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400456
Theodore Ts'of3561ed2001-08-15 11:58:16 -0400457 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Handle -O and -s options in line in the getopt
458 loop, so that -s and -O handling are a bit more intuitive.
459 (Not that they should be mixed anyway; -s is deprecated.)
460
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -0400461 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Give an error if -O is
462 specified more than once.
463
Theodore Ts'o085b02c2001-08-10 19:13:11 -04004642001-08-10 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
465
466 * mke2fs.8.in: Slim down text describing the -O flag to remove
467 text that erroneously implied that all features
468 (including compatible flags) aren't compatible with older
469 kernels.
470
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -04004712001-08-09 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
472
Theodore Ts'oe8a447d2001-08-09 06:13:18 -0400473 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix bug pointed out by Christopher Niessen; if
474 mke2fs -O none is specified, the sparse_super feature
475 should not be present.
476
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -0400477 * e2image.c, e2image.8.in: Add support for raw image files.
478
Theodore Ts'o8c97b0b2001-08-04 21:14:45 -04004792001-08-04 Andreas Dilger <root@lynx.adilger.int>
480
481 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Put check for JOURNAL_DEV before sparse_option,
482 so we don't set the sparse superblock flag on journal devices.
483
Theodore Ts'o194686b2001-07-31 12:03:23 -04004842001-07-31 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
485
486 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, remove_journal_inode): If
487 removing an in-filesystem journal, clear out the journal
488 inode and update the filesystem accounting structures so
489 we don't have to run e2fsck to clean up after ourselves
490

497
498 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the blocksize is not specified and the
499 journal device is specified, use it to determine the
500 blocksize of the new filesystem.
501

510 * fstype.c (identify_fs): New file which looks at the superblock
511 of the filesystem to determines its type.
512
513 * fsck.c (fsck_device, ignore, interpret_type): Call identify_fs
514 if the type specified in /etc/fstab is "auto".

532 the message which displays how often the filesystem will
533 be checked from mke2fs into a utility subroutine. Then

535 after adding a journal to a filesystem.
536

547 we're (not) using i386 byte order.
548
549 * dumpe2fs.c, mke2fs.c: Stop using the compatibility badblocks
550 function, and use the ext2fs_badblocks_* functions
551 instead.

558
559 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Don't use _FILE_BITS_OFFSET method of using
560 the 64-bit function, since this changes the expected size

Theodore Ts'oa9bc79a2001-05-23 22:29:22 +0000578 * partinfo.c (main): Use unsigned long instead of long when
579 querying the size of a device using the BLKGETSIZE ioctl,
580 to remove the 1TB limit (and turn it into a 2TB limit :-)
581
Theodore Ts'oc7a24e42001-05-23 22:26:39 +0000582 * fsck.c (compile_fs_type): Fix I18N compilation bug: use N_()

667 by ext2fs_open().
668
Theodore Ts'o45d70862001-05-01 15:44:37 +00006692001-05-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
670
671 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine
672 the base device, we should assume that the device is
673 already active in order to force serialization.
674
Theodore Ts'oce57f142001-04-26 04:25:39 +00006752001-04-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
676
677 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Interpret -c 0 as -c -1 (for
678 backwards compatibility with older kernels). -c 0 makes
679 more sense to users.
680
Theodore Ts'o4d0f2282001-04-23 20:58:03 +00006812001-04-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
682
683 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): If the force flag is given,
684 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
685 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
686 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
687 from journal device.
688 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
689 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
690 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
691
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +00006922001-04-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
693
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +0000694 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
695 documentation for the extern journal device support.
696
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000697 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage
698 message.
699
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +00007002001-04-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
701
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +0000702 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
703 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
704
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000705 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
706 number to be treated as a journal size.
707
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000708 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
709 look nicer.
710
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000711 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
712 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
713 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
714 entire device to get zero'ed.
715
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +00007162001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
717
718 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +0000719 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 102,400 file system
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000720 blocks.
721
722 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
723
724 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
725 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
726 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
727 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
728 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
729 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
730 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
731 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
732 using the absolute size of the journal.
733
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +00007342001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
735
736 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
737 Also handle the case where the default journal size
738 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
739 the filesystem will be checked.
740
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00007412001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
742
743 * e2image.c (main): Add code to write the e2image header.
744
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +00007452001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
746
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000747 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
748 sparse_super.
749
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000750 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
751 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
752 in hex.
753
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000754 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
755 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
756
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00007572001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
758
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000759 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
760 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
761 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
762 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
763 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
764 with the rest of the options out there.)
765
766 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
767 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
768 from the external journal's filesystem list.
769
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000770 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
771 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
772 given a filesystem size.
773
774 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
775 small as 1MB.
776
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000777 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
778 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
779
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00007802001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
781
782 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
783 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
784 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
785
786 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
787 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
788 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
789 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
790 have been created via separate step.
791
792 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
793 information about an external journal device.
794
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00007952001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
796
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000797 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
798 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
799 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
800 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
801 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
802 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
803 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
804 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
805
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000806 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
807
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000808 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
809 stdout after printing in-progress message.
810 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
811 the mount status of the device.
812
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +00008132001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
814
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000815 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
816 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
817 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
818 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
819 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
820
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000821 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
822 flush the device.
823
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000824 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
825
Theodore Ts'o83238152001-01-09 00:16:26 +00008262001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
827
828 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
829 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
830 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
831
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00008322001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
833
834 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
835 prototype.
836
837 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
838 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
839 complaints.
840
841 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
842
843 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
844 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
845
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00008462001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
847
848 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
849 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
850 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
851 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
852
853 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
854 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
855 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
856
857 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
858 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
859
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00008602001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
861
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000862 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
863 struct ext2_super_block.
864
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000865 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
866 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
867 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000868 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
869 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
870 using our own version now).

873
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000874 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
875 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
876 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
877 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
878 the parallel_root option.
879
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000880 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
881 the file attributes.
882
883 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
884 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
885
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000886 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
887 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
888 support for the journaled data flag.
889
890 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
891
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00008922000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
893
894 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
895
896 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
897 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
898
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00008992000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
900
901 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
902 names.
903
904 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
905 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
906 instead of core dumping.
907
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00009082000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
909
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000910 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
911 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
912 journal creation routines for this purpose.
913
914 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
915 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
916
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000917 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
918 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
919
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00009202000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
921
922 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
923 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
924 memory.
925
926 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
927 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
928
929 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
930
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00009312000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
932
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000933 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
934 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
935 #63442)
936
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000937 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
938 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
939 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
940 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
941 #65267)
942
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000943 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
944 group names to uid's before storing them in the
945 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
946
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00009472000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
948
949 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
950 option=argument style options, and add support for
951 creating filesystems with external journals.
952
953 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
954
Theodore Ts'o72ed1262000-11-12 19:32:20 +00009552000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
956
957 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
958 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
959
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00009602000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
961
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000962 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
963 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
964 at this point.)
965
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000966 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
967 character labels.
968
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000969 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
970 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
971 other devices.
972
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000973 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
974 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
975 journal.
976
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00009772000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>

988
989 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
990 fails.
991
992 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
993 the inode table location in non-hex format.
994
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00009952000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
996
997 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
998 we can't find the device using the name given by
999 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
1000 into the kernel, but not mounted.)

1003
1004 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
1005 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
1006 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
1007
1008 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict

1012 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
1013 zap_sect.
1014 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
1015 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.

1024 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
1025
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +000010262000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
1027
1028 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
1029 are mutually exclusive.
1030
1031 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
1032 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
1033 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
1034 the long run.)
1035
1036 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
1037 variable before going into the write verification loop.
1038 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
1039 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
1040 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
1041 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
1042 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
1043 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
1044 routines anymore.
1045
1046 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
1047 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
1048 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
1049 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
1050 format string.
1051
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +000010522000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1053
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +00001054 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
1055 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
1056 the progress bar display logic.
1057
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +00001058 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
1059 max_mount_count is negative.
1060
1061 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
1062 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
1063 check.
1064
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +00001065 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
1066 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
1067 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
1068 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
1069 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
1070 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
1071
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +00001072 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
1073 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
1074 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
1075
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00001076 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
1077 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +00001078 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
1079 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00001080
1081 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
1082 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
1083 device as a default.
1084
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +000010852000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1086
1087 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
1088 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
1089 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
1090 old, overly complicated logic.
1091 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
1092 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
1093 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
1094
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +000010952000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1096
1097 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
1098 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
1099 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
1100 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
1101
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +000011022000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1103
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +00001104 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
1105 or LABEL= specification is given.
1106
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00001107 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
1108 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
1109 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
1110 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
1111 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
1112 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
1113
1114 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
1115 proceed_question that was busted due to the
1116 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
1117 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
1118 cleared of the previous question's newline.
1119
Theodore Ts'oe2207ce2000-04-06 21:51:18 +00001120Thu Apr 6 17:50:25 2000 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@signal.thunk.org>
1121
1122 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
1123 support fdatasync().
1124
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +000011252000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1126
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +00001127 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
1128 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
1129 manually define optarg and optind.
1130
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +00001131 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
1132 Beattie.
1133
1134 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
1135 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
1136 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
1137 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
1138
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00001139 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
1140 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
1141 address.
1142 chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
1143
Theodore Ts'oe1a0a3e2000-02-11 05:00:19 +000011442000-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1145
1146 * chattr.1.in:
1147 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
1148
1149 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
1150
1151 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
1152
1153 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
1154 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
1155
1156 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
1157 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
1158 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
1159 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
1160 the same flag.
1161
1162 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
1163 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
1164 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.
1165
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +000011662000-02-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1167
Theodore Ts'od9c56d32000-02-08 00:47:55 +00001168 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
1169 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1170 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
1171 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
1172 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
1173
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +00001174 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
1175 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
1176 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
1177 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
1178 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
1179 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
1180
1181 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
1182
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +000011832000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1184
1185 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
1186 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
1187 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
1188 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
1189 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
1190
1191 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
1192 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
1193
1194 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h
1195
Theodore Ts'o582134c2000-01-19 13:26:23 +000011962000-01-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1197
1198 * tune2fs.c (usage): Update the usage message to correctly
1199 document the -s option.
1200
Theodore Ts'o879ac922000-01-18 20:59:11 +000012012000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1202
1203 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
1204 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
1205 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
1206 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
1207
1208 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
1209 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
1210 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
1211 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
1212 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
1213 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
1214 Finally, the original data is written back.
1215
1216 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
1217 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
1218 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
1219 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
1220 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
1221 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
1222 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
1223 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
1224 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
1225 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
1226 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
1227 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
1228 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
1229 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
1230 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
1231
1232 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
1233 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
1234 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
1235 randomly.
1236
1237 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
1238 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
1239
1240 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
1241 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
1242 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
1243 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
1244 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
1245 and want the host hard drive to flush.
1246
1247 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
1248 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
1249 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
1250 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
1251 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
1252 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
1253 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
1254 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
1255 scan).
1256
1257 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
1258 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
1259 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
1260 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
1261 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
1262 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
1263 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
1264 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
1265 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
1266 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
1267 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
1268 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
1269 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
1270 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
1271 completely reliable.
1272
1273 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
1274 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
1275 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
1276 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
1277 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
1278 for your information.
1279
1280 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
1281 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
1282 which I install which will write back whatever original
1283 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
1284 (except SIGKILL, of course).
1285
1286 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
1287 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
1288 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
1289 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
1290 could learn how to update the manpage and other
1291 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
1292 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
1293 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
1294 should be in the distribution."

1297
1298 * Really fix the bug where "fsck -As" will actually allow
1299 interactive fsck's. (For those people who like to do
1300 interactive fsck's in the /etc/rc scripts!?!)
1301
Theodore Ts'obfd21931999-11-23 13:48:58 +000013021999-11-23 <tytso@valinux.com>
1303
1304 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix man page so that the sparse_super filesystem
1305 option is properly named.
1306
Theodore Ts'o6733c2f1999-11-23 02:23:30 +000013071999-11-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1308
1309 * mke2fs.c: Change log2() and log10() to int_log2() and
1310 int_log10() to avoid namespace collisions. Change #ifdef
1311 sparc to #ifdef __sparc__.
1312
Theodore Ts'o5c36a2f1999-11-19 18:42:30 +000013131999-11-19 <tytso@valinux.com>

1315 * Makefile.in (distclean): Remove TAGS and Makefile.in.old from
1316 the source directory.
1317

1323
Theodore Ts'o6fdc7a31999-11-10 13:34:40 +00001324 * mke2fs.8.in: Update manual page so that the sparse_option
1325 filesystem option is properly named.
1326
Theodore Ts'o6a35ffa1999-11-04 22:34:43 +000013271999-11-04 <tytso@valinux.com>
1328
1329 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
1330 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
1331 fsck -As can do so interactively.
1332
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +000013331999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>

1336
13371999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
1338
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +00001339 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
1340 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
1341 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
1342
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +00001343 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
1344 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
1345 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
1346 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
1347
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001348 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +00001349 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
1350 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
1351 gcc warnings.
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001352
Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +00001353 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
1354 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
1355 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
1356 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
1357 the child process.
1358
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +00001359 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
1360 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
1361
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +000013621999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
1363
1364 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
1365 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +00001366 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
1367 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
1368 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00001369
1370 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
1371 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
1372 an infinite loop.
1373
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +000013741999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1375
Theodore Ts'o614fdfd1999-10-23 03:19:51 +00001376 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
1377
13781999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
1379
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +00001380 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
1381 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
1382 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
1383 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
1384
1385 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
1386 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
1387 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
1388 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
1389
Theodore Ts'ocaf8ce41999-10-21 19:56:34 +000013901999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
1391
1392 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
1393 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
1394 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
1395 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
1396 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
1397

1399
Theodore Ts'o671cbfa1999-10-20 18:14:23 +00001400 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
1401 changing the sparse superblock option
1402
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00001403 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
1404 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
1405 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
1406 unhandled SIGUSR1.

Theodore Ts'o76714331999-10-20 18:06:29 +00001409
1410 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
1411 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
1412
Theodore Ts'o27401561999-09-14 20:11:19 +000014131999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
1414
1415 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
1416 Dirson.
1417
1418 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
1419 kernels.
1420
1421 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
1422 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
1423 flag.
1424
1425 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
1426 (header-only).
1427
14281999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
1429
1430 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
1431 superblock option.
1432
14331999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o657cb971999-07-30 23:19:10 +00001434
1435 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
1436
Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +000014371999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1438
1439 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
1440 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
1441 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
1442 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
1443 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
1444 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
1445 the filesystem the system would make.
1446
14471999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
1448
1449 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
1450 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
1451 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
1452 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
1453 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
1454
14551999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +00001456
1457 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
1458 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
1459 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
1460
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000014611999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +00001462
1463 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
1464 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
1465
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000014661999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +00001467
1468 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
1469 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
1470 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
1471 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
1472 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
1473 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
1474
1475 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
1476 UUID=bar type specifications.
1477
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +000014781999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
1479
1480 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
1481 clear out a large block number.
1482
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +000014831999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
1484
1485 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
1486 appears mounted if the force option is given.
1487
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +000014881999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
1489
1490 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
1491 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
1492
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +000014931999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1494
1495 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
1496 code cleanups.
1497
Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +000014981999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1499
1500 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
1501 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
1502 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
1503 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
1504
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +000015051999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
1506
1507 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
1508 generate UUIDs.
1509
15101999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1511
1512 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
1513 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
1514
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +000015151999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1516
1517 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
1518 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
1519 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
1520 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
1521
15221999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1523
1524 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
1525 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
1526 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
1527 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
1528 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
1529 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
1530
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +000015311999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1532
1533 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
1534 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
1535 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
1536 fsck pass structure.
1537 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
1538 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
1539 to finish.
1540
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +000015411999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1551
1552 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
1553 needs to be treated as zero.
1554
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +000015551999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1556
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +00001557 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add -N option to allow the user to specify
1558 exactly how many inodes he/she wishes.
Theodore Ts'o5515e6b1999-01-05 07:25:06 +00001559
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +00001560 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
1561 program if the -V option is given.
1562
1563 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
1564 through a directory.
1565
Theodore Ts'o93ab9d71999-01-02 04:04:42 +000015661999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1567
1568 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
1569 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
1570 /etc/fstab file.
1571 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
1572 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
1573
15741998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1575
1576 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
1577 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
1578
Theodore Ts'o556ad131998-12-19 08:10:58 +000015791998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1584
1585 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
1586 seperated", instead of common separated)
1587
Theodore Ts'o5a679c81998-12-03 16:40:38 +000015881998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

15921998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1593
1594 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
1595 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
1596 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
1597
Theodore Ts'o1dde43f1998-11-14 04:18:28 +000015981998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1599
1600 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
1601
1602 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
1603 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
1604 things look nice on an 80 character display.

1628 * badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration.
1629
1630 * fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't
1631 trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is,
1632 it isn't pretty.)
1633
16341998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1635
1636 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number
1637 and exit.
1638
Theodore Ts'o4bf5fbf1998-05-14 22:43:10 +000016391998-05-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1640

1645
1646 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
1647 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
1648 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
1649 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
1650 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1651
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +000016521998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

16581998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1659
1660 * chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may
1661 only be set or cleared by the superuser.
1662
1663 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
1664 up-to-date.
1665
1666 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that
1667 labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will
1668 be truncated.
1669
1670 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
1671 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
1672 that the label will be truncated.
1673
1674 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1675 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1676 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1677
Theodore Ts'obbfa3aa1998-03-21 07:12:46 +000016781998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1684
1685 * partinfo.c (main): The ioctl BLKGETSIZE requires a long, not an
1686 int.
1687
Theodore Ts'o92bcc591998-02-16 22:29:34 +00001688Sun Feb 1 16:53:36 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1689
1690 * badblocks.8: Update documentation to note that output format
1691 of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or
1692 mke2fs -l.
1693
1694 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with
1695 bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the
1696 first one).
1697
Theodore Ts'oca8abba1998-01-19 14:55:24 +00001698Mon Dec 1 17:01:04 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1710 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1711 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
1712 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
1713 unsigned.
1714
Theodore Ts'od163b091997-10-03 17:42:28 +00001715Fri Oct 3 13:38:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1716
1717 * mke2fs.c (parse_raid_opts): Make parse_raid_opts return a void,
1718 to fix a -Wall warning.
1719
Theodore Ts'o00e54331997-09-16 02:13:52 +00001720Mon Sep 15 22:07:12 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1724 * lsattr.c (main):
1725 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1726 * chattr.c (main):
1727 * badblocks.c (main): Declare main to return an int, as required.
1728 Make sure main always ends with an exit(0). (Some
1729 programs weren't doing this, and thus were returning a
1730 random exit value.)
1731
Theodore Ts'oab6b8ab1997-07-14 19:28:55 +00001732Mon Jul 14 15:27:29 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
1733
1734 * e2label.c: New file contributed by Andries Brouwer which
1735 provides an easy-to-use interface to modify the filesystem
1736 label.
1737
1738 * Makefile.in (SPROGS): Add Makefile support to build e2label
1739
Theodore Ts'o024996c1997-06-17 05:38:35 +00001740Tue Jun 17 01:33:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1754 oops found by Bill Hawes (whawes@star.net).
1755
Theodore Ts'of635d7f1997-05-09 02:50:16 +00001756 * mke2fs.c (test_disk): Pass the blocksize to the bad blocks
1757 command so that all of the filesystem gets tested in the
1758 case where the blocksize 2048 or 4096.
1759
Theodore Ts'oa29f4d31997-04-29 21:26:48 +00001760Thu Apr 24 12:16:42 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1761
1762 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10
1763
1764Thu Apr 24 09:52:47 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1765
1766 * mke2fs.c: Added new option -R, which specifies RAID options.
1767 Currently the only supported RAID option is "stride" which
1768 specifies the stripe width in RAID filesystem. This is
1769 used to aid in the placement of the inode and block
1770 bitmaps.
1771
1772 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Added warnings that the sparse
1773 superblock option isn't yet supported by most kernels.
1774
1775Wed Apr 23 22:42:51 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1776
1777 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the default filesystem revision be 0, not
1778 1. (Since some people are still worried about 1.2.13
1779 compatibility).
1780
1781Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1782
1783 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.09

1786
1787 * chattr.1.in: Updated man page so that the 'A' attribute is
1788 specified everywhere.
1789
1790 * chattr.c (usage): Added usage message for the 'A' attribute.
1791
1792Fri Apr 11 18:56:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1797
1798 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): List the offsets of the inode and block
1799 bitmaps, and the inode table. List the block boundaries
1800 for the groups.
1801
1802Sat Apr 5 11:55:52 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1803
1804 * tune2fs.c (main): Implement the -s flag allows the user to
1805 set and reset the sparse superblock flag.
1806
1807 * mke2fs.c (PRS): By default generate DYNAMIC revision
1808 filesystems. The -s flag controls whether or not the
1809 sparse superblock flag is set.
1810 (PRS): Change to allow the user to specify the true
1811 maximum number of blocks per group to reflect the
1812 blocksize.
1813
Theodore Ts'o19c78dc1997-04-29 16:17:09 +00001814Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

1817
1818Thu Mar 6 17:15:05 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1819
1820 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Set the root directory's i_uid and
1821 i_gid to be the real user and group id.
1822
1823Tue Mar 4 10:14:33 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1824
1825 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add more intelligent error
1826 messages when the device doesn't exist.
1827
1828Sat Mar 1 10:43:32 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1829
1830 * fsck.c (main): Fix bug where the PATH environment variable isn't
1831 set when it is unset.
1832
1833Tue Jan 14 12:30:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1834
1835 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables
1836 where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop.
1837 This caused the inode table to not be correctly
1838 initialized.
1839
1840Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1841
1842 * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy().
1843
1844 * findsuper.c: Use time_t for ctime(), not __u32.
1845
1846Sat Dec 28 23:39:18 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1847
1848 * badblocks.c: Adapted -vv modifications from Rik Faith so that
1849 they frequently update the block number field.
1850
1851 * badblocks.8.in: Document the optional start-block parameter
1852
1853Mon Oct 14 11:52:58 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1854
1855 * mke2fs.c: Updated to use new ext2fs_allocate_tables() function.
1856
1857Tue Oct 8 02:02:03 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1858
1859 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.06
1860

1862
1863 * chattr.1.in: Documented the 'A' (noatime) attribute.
1864
1865 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Change EXT2_SWAP to EXT2_FLAG_SWAP for
1866 consistency's sake.
1867
1868Sun Sep 22 16:18:47 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1869
1870 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Add support for the 'A' (noatime) flag.

1877
1878 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support for new option -C, which sets the
1879 current number of mounts.
1880 (main): Allow the interval to be specified in seconds,
1881 mostly for debugging.
1882
1883Tue Aug 27 17:27:43 1996 Miles Bader <miles@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1884
1885 * Makefile.in (SMANPAGES): Use @FSCK_MAN@ instead of fsck.8.
1886 (SPROGS): Use @FSCK_PROG@ instead of fsck.
1887
1888Thu Aug 22 00:51:44 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1889
1890 * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a
1891 sparc.
1892
1893Tue Aug 20 00:15:46 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1894
1895 * chattr.c (main): Fixed bug so that chattr -v works. (Bug report
1896 and fix sent by Charles Howes, chowes@eznet.ca)
1897
1898Fri Aug 9 11:52:42 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1899
1900 * tune2fs.8.in:
1901 * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume
1902 label, the -M option which sets the last mounted
1903 directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID.
1904
1905 * mke2fs.8.in:
1906 * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the
1907 creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if
1908 applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets
1909 the volume label, and the -M option which sets the last
1910 mounted directory.
1911
1912Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card <card@bbj.linux.eu.org>
1913
1914 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to
1915 avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used
1916 and no version number is specified.
1917
Theodore Ts'o62c06f71997-04-29 14:34:47 +00001918Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1919
1920 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
1921
1922Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1923
1924 * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2
1925 libraries.
1926
Theodore Ts'o7f88b041997-04-26 14:48:50 +00001927Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1928
1929 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
1930
1931Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1932
1933 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
1934 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
1935
1936Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1937
1938 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.
1939
1940 * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode
1941 revision.
1942
1943Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1944
1945 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
1946 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1947 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1948 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1949 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1950 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1951 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1952 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1953 option turned on.
1954
Theodore Ts'o74becf31997-04-26 14:37:06 +00001955Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1956
1957 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
1958
1959Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1960
1961 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
1962 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
1963 vs. /dev/hda1)
1964
1965Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1966
1967 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1968 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1969 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1970 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1971 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1972
1973Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1974
1975 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
1976 ext2fs_test_bit().
1977
Theodore Ts'o297f47a1997-04-26 14:25:20 +00001978Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1979
1980 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1981 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
1982
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +00001983Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1984
1985 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1986
1987Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1988
1989 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1990 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1991 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1992
1993Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1994
1995 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
1996 the same order.
1997
1998Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1999
2000 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
2001 function to determine if the device is mounted.
2002
2003 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
2004 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
2005 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
2006 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
2007
2008Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
2009
2010 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
2011 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
2012 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
2013 check.
2014
2015Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2016
2017 * badblocks.8:
2018 * chattr.1:
2019 * dumpe2fs.8:
2020 * fsck.8:
2021 * lsattr.1:
2022 * mke2fs.8:
2023 * mklost+found.8:
2024 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
2025
2026Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
2027
2028 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
2029 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
2030 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
2031
2032 * mke2fs.8:
2033 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
2034
2035Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
2036
2037 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
2038 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
2039 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
2040
2041Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
2042
2043 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
2044 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
2045 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
2046 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
2047 advisable.
2048
2049 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
2050 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
2051 alloca is not portable!
2052
2053 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
2054 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
2055 /etc/fstab.
2056
2057 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
2058
2059Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
2060
2061 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
2062 benefit.
2063
2064 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
2065
2066 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
2067 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
2068
2069Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
2070
2071 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
2072 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
2073
2074Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
2075
2076 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
2077
2078 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
2079 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
2080
2081 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
2082
2083Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
2084
2085 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
2086 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
2087 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
2088 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
2089
2090 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
2091 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
2092 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
2093 statically sized buffer.
2094 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
2095 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
2096
2097 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
2098 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
2099 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
2100 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
2101 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
2102
2103 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
2104 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
2105 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
2106 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
2107 (test_rw): Ditto.
2108
2109 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
2110 support separate compilation directories.
2111
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +00002112Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
2113
2114 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
2115 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
2116 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
2117 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
2118
2119 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
2120 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
2121 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
2122 very large partition.
2123
2124 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
2125 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
2126 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
2127
2128 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
2129 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
2130 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
2131 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
2132 ioctl, which most do.)
2133
2134 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
2135 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
2136 during 0.5b development.)
2137
2138Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
2139
2140 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
2141 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
2142 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
2143 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
2144 measure).
2145
2146 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
2147 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
2148 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
2149
2150Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
2151
2152 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
2153
2154 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
2155 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
2156 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
2157

2160 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
2161 new options.

2164Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
2165
2166 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
2167 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
2168 all partitions should be checked.
2169
2170Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
2171
2172 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
2173 structures.
2174

2187Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
2188
2189 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
2190 read-only test.
2191
2192 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
2193
2194 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
2195
2196 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
2197

2202Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2203
2204 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
2205 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
2206 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
2207 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
2208 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
2209
2210 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
2211 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
2212 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
2213 statistics if necessary.
