7
8 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
9 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.

Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +0000111999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
12
13 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
14 code cleanups.

Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +0000161999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
17
18 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
19 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
20 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
21 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.

Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +0000231999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
24
25 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
26 generate UUIDs.
27
281999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
29
30 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
31 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
32
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +0000331999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
34
35 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
36 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
37 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
38 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
39
401999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
41
42 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
43 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
44 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
45 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
46 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
47 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.

50
51 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
52 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
53 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
54 fsck pass structure.
55 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
56 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
57 to finish.

163
164 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
165 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
166 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
167 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
168 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.

193 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
194 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.

395
396 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support for new option -C, which sets the
397 current number of mounts.
398 (main): Allow the interval to be specified in seconds,
399 mostly for debugging.
400
401Tue Aug 27 17:27:43 1996 Miles Bader <miles@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
402
403 * Makefile.in (SMANPAGES): Use @FSCK_MAN@ instead of fsck.8.
404 (SPROGS): Use @FSCK_PROG@ instead of fsck.
405
406Thu Aug 22 00:51:44 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
407
408 * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a
409 sparc.
410
411Tue Aug 20 00:15:46 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
412
413 * chattr.c (main): Fixed bug so that chattr -v works. (Bug report
414 and fix sent by Charles Howes, chowes@eznet.ca)
415
416Fri Aug 9 11:52:42 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
417
418 * tune2fs.8.in:
419 * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume
420 label, the -M option which sets the last mounted
421 directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID.
422
423 * mke2fs.8.in:
424 * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the
425 creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if
426 applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets
427 the volume label, and the -M option which sets the last
428 mounted directory.
429
430Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card <card@bbj.linux.eu.org>
431
432 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to
433 avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used
434 and no version number is specified.
435
Theodore Ts'o62c06f71997-04-29 14:34:47 +0000436Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
437
438 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
439
440Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
441
442 * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2
443 libraries.
444
Theodore Ts'o7f88b041997-04-26 14:48:50 +0000445Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
446
447 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
448
449Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
450
451 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
452 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
453
454Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
455
456 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.
457
458 * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode
459 revision.
460
461Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
462
463 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
464 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
465 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
466 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
467 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
468 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
469 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
470 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
471 option turned on.
472
Theodore Ts'o74becf31997-04-26 14:37:06 +0000473Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
474
475 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
476
477Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
478
479 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
480 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
481 vs. /dev/hda1)
482
483Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
484
485 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
486 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
487 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
488 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
489 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
490
491Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
492
493 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
494 ext2fs_test_bit().
495
Theodore Ts'o297f47a1997-04-26 14:25:20 +0000496Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
497
498 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
499 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
500
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +0000501Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
502
503 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
504
505Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
506
507 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
508 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
509 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
510
511Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
512
513 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
514 the same order.
515
516Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
517
518 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
519 function to determine if the device is mounted.
520
521 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
522 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
523 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
524 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
525
526Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
527
528 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
529 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
530 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
531 check.
532
533Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
534
535 * badblocks.8:
536 * chattr.1:
537 * dumpe2fs.8:
538 * fsck.8:
539 * lsattr.1:
540 * mke2fs.8:
541 * mklost+found.8:
542 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
543
544Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
545
546 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
547 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
548 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
549
550 * mke2fs.8:
551 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
552
553Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
554
555 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
556 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
557 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
558
559Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
560
561 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
562 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
563 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
564 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
565 advisable.
566
567 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
568 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
569 alloca is not portable!
570
571 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
572 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
573 /etc/fstab.
574
575 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
576
577Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
578
579 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
580 benefit.
581
582 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
583
584 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
585 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
586
587Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
588
589 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
590 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
591
592Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
593
594 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
595
596 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
597 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
598
599 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
600
601Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
602
603 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
604 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
605 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
606 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
607
608 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
609 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
610 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
611 statically sized buffer.
612 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
613 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
614
615 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
616 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
617 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
618 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
619 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
620
621 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
622 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
623 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
624 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
625 (test_rw): Ditto.
626
627 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
628 support separate compilation directories.
629
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +0000630Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
631
632 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
633 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
634 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
635 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
636
637 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
638 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
639 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
640 very large partition.
641
642 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
643 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
644 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
645
646 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
647 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
648 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
649 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
650 ioctl, which most do.)
651
652 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
653 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
654 during 0.5b development.)
655
656Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
657
658 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
659 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
660 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
661 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
662 measure).
663
664 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
665 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
666 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
667
668Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
669
670 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
671
672 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
673 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
674 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
675
676Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
677
678 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
679 new options.
680 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
681
682Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
683
684 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
685 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
686 all partitions should be checked.
687
688Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
689
690 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
691 structures.
692
693 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
694 the effective uid.
695
696Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
697
698 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
699 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
700
701Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
702
703 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
704
705Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
706
707 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
708 read-only test.
709
710 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
711
712 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
713
714 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
715
716 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
717
718 (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
719
720Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
721
722 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
723 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
724 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
725 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
726 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
727
728 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
729 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
730 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
731 statistics if necessary.
