Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -0500292002-02-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'ob9f40922002-02-24 03:08:57 -050030
31 * Makefile.in (install): Install hard links for man pages for
32 mkfs.ext2 and mkfs.ext3. Also install hard link for
33 mkfs.ext3. Remove any compressed man pages before
34 installing the man pages.
35

Theodore Ts'o541d1732002-02-23 21:23:26 -050037
38 * badblocks.8.in: Clarify man page's description of the -f option
39
Theodore Ts'o57173d02002-02-26 14:59:39 -0500402002-02-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o7d4343d2002-02-12 02:34:44 -050041
42 * get_device_by_label.c: Since on non-STDC compilers, we define
43 away const, include get_device_by_label.h after we include
44 fsck.h.
45
46 * Makefile.in (base_device): Remove use of $<, which is
47 non-portable.
48
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500492002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
50
51 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.26
52
532002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5599c2f2002-02-03 00:08:52 -050054
55 * fsck.c (interpret_type): Allow filesystems types of the form
56 "ext3,ext2", etc.
57
58 * fstype.c (identify_fs): Add support for only searching for a
59 specified list of filesystems. Also add support for
60 identifying reiserfs filesystems.
61
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500622002-01-29 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa1069112002-01-29 12:49:14 -050063
64 * fsck.c: Allow the number of outstanding processes fs-specific
65 fsck programs to be capped via the FSCK_MAX_INST
66 envrionment variable.
67
68 * fsck.8.in: Document all of the environment variables used by fsck.
69
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500702002-01-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o177ab2b2002-01-27 18:23:49 -050071
72 * tune2fs.8.in: Document the -f flag to tune2fs.
73
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500742002-01-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o5493a272002-01-02 14:15:35 -050075
76 * badblocks.c (main): Open the device as O_RDWR if possible, since
77 fsync() isn't guaranteed to work if the filesystem is
78 opened read-only.
79
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500802001-12-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'od4de4aa2001-12-26 08:58:01 -050081
82 * tune2fs.8.in, tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options, main): Add
83 support for new option, -T, which allows the user to set
84 the last checked time on the filesystem.
85
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -0500862001-12-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -050087
Theodore Ts'o3ed57c22001-12-24 15:01:59 -050088 * mke2fs.c (main, test_disk): If two -c options are
89 specified, then perform a destructive read/write test
90 of the disk.
91
92 * mke2fs.8.in: Document the double -c option; also encourage users
93 to use -c instead of the -l/-L options since it's too hard
94 for users to get things like the blocksize parameter correct.
95
96 * badblocks.8.in: Encourage users to use the -c option in mke2fs
97 and e2fsck instead of running badblocks directly.
98
Theodore Ts'o6a525062001-12-24 09:40:00 -050099 * mke2fs.c (create_lost_and_found): The lost+found directory is
100 now created with 0700 permissions, since files which get
101 dropped into that directory may have come from a protected
102 directory, and the system administrator may not deal with
103 immediately. (Addresses Debian bug #118443)
104
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001052001-12-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o19007e52001-12-23 19:33:51 -0500106
107 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: Move linux/jbd.h to
108 ext2fs/kernel-jbd.h, to avoid using the system header
109 file version of hbd.h when using diet glibc (since it
110 forcibly adds /usr/include to the beginning of the
111 include search path.)
112
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001132001-12-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oeaf4dc52001-12-22 00:04:22 -0500114
115 * get_device_by_label.c (init_lvm): Add support to read out
116 information from the LVM proc hierarchy, so that the UUID
117 cache can search the LVM logical volumes for UUID's,
118 labels, etc.
119
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001202001-12-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o0655b102001-12-21 23:59:46 -0500121
122 * dumpe2fs.c (list_bad_blocks): Change to not die if the listing
123 of the bad blocks can't be found. Slimmed down dumpe2fs
124 by eliminating duplicate code paths.
125
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001262001-12-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>

Theodore Ts'o4ea7bd02001-12-16 23:23:37 -0500128 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc), fsck.c (fs_match),
129 get_device_by_label.c (get_label_uuid),
130 mke2fs.c (set_fs_defaults, zap_sector, PRS),
131 tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device, update_feature_set),
132 util.c (figure_journal_size), util.h: Fix gcc -Wall nits.
133
134 * e2image.c (write_raw_image_file): Fix gcc -Wall nits, and use
135 the stashed inode functions to optimize away system calls.
136
Theodore Ts'o8cf93332001-12-16 02:23:36 -0500137 * Makefile.in, jfs_user.h: linux/jfs.h has been renamed to
138 linux/jbd.h
139
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001402001-12-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa5f0bb92001-12-02 19:29:35 +0100141
142 * dumpe2fs.c: Don't print the offset to the bitmap and inode table
143 if it's negative. Also did some generalized code clean up
144 to slim it down the support of the -x option.
145
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001462001-11-24 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oa36cf922001-11-24 16:13:49 -0500147
148 * e2image.8.in: Fix cut-and-paste typo (Addresses Debian bug
149 #119624)
150
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001512001-11-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6ef39202001-11-13 18:49:09 -0500152
153 * util.c (check_plausibility): Use stat64 if available so that
154 check_plausibility() works with files > 2GB.
155
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001562001-11-05 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500157
Theodore Ts'ob3f5b4c2001-11-05 19:22:02 -0500158 * chattr.1.in: Update the man page to document the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL
159 flag.
160
161 * chattr.c: Add support for the EXT2_NOTAIL_FL flag.
162
Theodore Ts'o6430bd62001-11-05 18:58:46 -0500163 * fsck.c (interpret_type): If the "auto" type is specified, make
164 sure interpet_device() is called so that device
165 specifications which use LABEL= or UUID= are translated
166 into a real device name.
167
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001682001-10-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'oe3ef3502001-11-05 18:57:43 -0500169
170 * e2image.c (output_meta_data_blocks): Optimize away excess
171 lseek() calls when creating a sparse file. Fewer system
172 calls are a good thing. <g>
173
Andreas Dilger568101f2001-10-13 01:22:25 -06001742001-10-07 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
175
176 * mke2fs.c (main): Always exit with non-zero code in case of error.
177
178 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Check that buffer allocation succeeded.

182 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.25
183
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001842001-09-19 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400185
Theodore Ts'of6a6afc2001-09-19 18:27:39 -0400186 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_inode): Remove dead code that wasn't
187 in use.
188
Theodore Ts'o39567c42001-09-19 15:28:21 -0400189 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect the fact that adding or
190 removing a journal doesn't require running e2fsck.
191
Theodore Ts'oa5f3f5c2002-02-03 01:00:22 -05001922001-09-13 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
Theodore Ts'o3f85f652001-09-17 10:38:06 -0400193
194 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Allocate sufficient space for
195 zero-filled buffer.
196
Theodore Ts'ofb707752001-09-04 15:00:37 -04001972001-09-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
198
199 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.24a
200
Andreas Dilger9d8e6342001-08-31 10:24:46 -06002012001-08-31 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
202
203 * mke2fs.c (main): Fix version format string.
204
Theodore Ts'o109624a2001-08-31 00:59:55 -04002052001-08-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
206
207 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.24
208
Theodore Ts'o177a9ac2001-08-30 18:07:40 -04002092001-08-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
210
211 * badblocks.8.in: Fix spelling typo. (Addresses Debian bug #110621)
212
Theodore Ts'o04a96852001-08-30 21:55:26 -0400213 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Now takes a third argument, which is how
214 many sectors to clear out. Fixed up Andreas's patch to
215 make it a bit more efficient/compact.
216
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -06002172001-08-30 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
218
219 * mke2fs.c (main): Zap the second sector of the disk, along with
220 any sectors in the same filesystem block after the superblock.
221 The latter will remove (for example) swapspace signatures
222 on 4kB+ blocksize filesystems. Also when zeroing the "end"
223 of the filesystem don't actually zero the start of a very
224 small device (less than 64 blocks).
225
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -04002262001-08-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
227
Andreas Dilger59f27242001-08-30 15:39:04 -0600228 * fsck.c (main): Make version display consistent with the other
Theodore Ts'o0f8973f2001-08-27 12:44:23 -0400229 e2fsprogs programs.
230
231 * lsattr.c, chattr.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2image.c,
232 mklost+found.c: Remove EXT2FS_VERSION from the version
233 display, since it only confuses people.
234
Theodore Ts'oe843c762001-08-18 14:22:25 -04002352001-08-18 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
236
237 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): Remove unused variable
238 check_uuid.
239
240 * get_device_by_label.h: Define function prototype for
241 copy_string(), since this was moved from fsck.c to
242 get_device_by_label.c by Andreas's BK changeset.
243
Andreas Dilger2d155762001-08-17 03:48:11 -06002442001-08-17 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
245
246 * get_device_by_label.[ch], fsck.c, util.c: New interpret_spec()
247 function in get_device_by_label.c to allow the use of
248 UUID= or LABEL= when creating filesystems which use external
249 journal dev (e.g. mke2fs -J device=LABEL=<journal_label>).
250
251 * tune2fs.c: Use superblock s_journal_uuid to locate an external
252 journal device instead of s_journal_dev when removing it.
253 Allow opening journal devices to set the label and UUID
254 in the ext2 superblock.
255
256 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Free journal_device after use, as it is
257 malloc'd in interpret spec.
258
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -04002592001-08-15 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
260

264
Theodore Ts'o7141b542001-08-15 19:17:37 -0400265 * tune2fs.c: Make sure that error messages are sent to stderr, and
266 normal messages are sent to stdout. (Addresses Debian bug
267 #108555.)
268
Theodore Ts'o1d349cc2001-08-15 19:06:55 -0400269 * fsck.8.in: Fixed error in synopsis of the man page.
270
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400271 * fsck.c (check_all): Don't bother to interpret a device where the
Theodore Ts'o685c13f2001-08-15 19:04:59 -0400272 pass number is zero. (Addresses Debian bug #106696.)
273 (main): Print a warning message if there are no devices to
274 be checked. (Addresses Debian bug #107458.)
Theodore Ts'o88f8af62001-08-15 18:39:51 -0400275
Theodore Ts'of3561ed2001-08-15 11:58:16 -0400276 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Handle -O and -s options in line in the getopt
277 loop, so that -s and -O handling are a bit more intuitive.
278 (Not that they should be mixed anyway; -s is deprecated.)
279
Theodore Ts'od2586682001-08-15 11:03:58 -0400280 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Give an error if -O is
281 specified more than once.
282
Theodore Ts'o085b02c2001-08-10 19:13:11 -04002832001-08-10 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
284
285 * mke2fs.8.in: Slim down text describing the -O flag to remove
286 text that erroneously implied that all features
287 (including compatible flags) aren't compatible with older
288 kernels.
289
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -04002902001-08-09 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
291
Theodore Ts'oe8a447d2001-08-09 06:13:18 -0400292 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix bug pointed out by Christopher Niessen; if
293 mke2fs -O none is specified, the sparse_super feature
294 should not be present.
295
Theodore Ts'o6304baf2001-08-09 05:41:29 -0400296 * e2image.c, e2image.8.in: Add support for raw image files.
297
Theodore Ts'o8c97b0b2001-08-04 21:14:45 -04002982001-08-04 Andreas Dilger <root@lynx.adilger.int>
299
300 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Put check for JOURNAL_DEV before sparse_option,
301 so we don't set the sparse superblock flag on journal devices.
302
Theodore Ts'o194686b2001-07-31 12:03:23 -04003032001-07-31 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
304
305 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, remove_journal_inode): If
306 removing an in-filesystem journal, clear out the journal
307 inode and update the filesystem accounting structures so
308 we don't have to run e2fsck to clean up after ourselves
309
Theodore Ts'ode49f012001-07-30 16:31:30 -04003102001-07-30 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
311
312 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set): Don't require a forced fsck if
313 we're removing an external journal from a filesystem.
314
Theodore Ts'o77dc4eb2001-07-27 22:00:18 -04003152001-07-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
316
317 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the blocksize is not specified and the
318 journal device is specified, use it to determine the
319 blocksize of the new filesystem.
320
Theodore Ts'o9b61b8c2001-07-20 14:25:23 -04003212001-07-20 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
322
323 * fsck.8.in: Add much more explicit language documenting how the
324 fs_passno field in /etc/fstab is handled. (Addresses

328
329 * fstype.c (identify_fs): New file which looks at the superblock
330 of the filesystem to determines its type.
331
332 * fsck.c (fsck_device, ignore, interpret_type): Call identify_fs
333 if the type specified in /etc/fstab is "auto".

349
Theodore Ts'o66cf2f62001-06-14 06:42:44 +0000350 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (print_check_message): Move
351 the message which displays how often the filesystem will
352 be checked from mke2fs into a utility subroutine. Then
353 cause tune2fs to call that function to display the message
354 after adding a journal to a filesystem.
355
356 * mke2fs.8.in: Add manual page fixups and explanation for why it's
357 good to check filesystems periodically from Andreas
358 Dilger.
359
Theodore Ts'ocdf186e2001-06-13 22:16:47 +0000360 * Makefile.in: Don't build e2image if --disable-imager is
361 specified to configure.
362

364
Theodore Ts'ocbbf0312001-06-13 00:12:04 +0000365 * dumpe2fs.c: Use WORDS_BIGENDIAN to determine whether or not
366 we're (not) using i386 byte order.
367
368 * dumpe2fs.c, mke2fs.c: Stop using the compatibility badblocks
369 function, and use the ext2fs_badblocks_* functions
370 instead.
371
Theodore Ts'o28cf9042001-06-12 22:35:00 +0000372 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Fixed bug which can cause fsck
373 to core dump if there are a mix of devices with standard
Theodore Ts'o83d5abf2001-06-13 23:31:27 +0000374 and non-standard names. (Addresses Debian bug #100559)

377
378 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Don't use _FILE_BITS_OFFSET method of using
379 the 64-bit function, since this changes the expected size
380 of struct dirent. Instead use lseek64 explicitly.
381
Theodore Ts'o797f5ef2001-06-01 23:49:46 +00003822001-06-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

396
Theodore Ts'oa9bc79a2001-05-23 22:29:22 +0000397 * partinfo.c (main): Use unsigned long instead of long when
398 querying the size of a device using the BLKGETSIZE ioctl,
399 to remove the 1TB limit (and turn it into a 2TB limit :-)
400
Theodore Ts'oc7a24e42001-05-23 22:26:39 +0000401 * fsck.c (compile_fs_type): Fix I18N compilation bug: use N_()

407 handling of -t option to be more intuitive. Also add
408 support for the Mandrake -t loop hack. See man page
409 for description of new -t semantics.
410
Theodore Ts'o9164b862001-05-21 01:41:37 +0000411 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Fix bug in
412 device_already_active which could cause infinite loops if
413 we don't know the base_device of the filesystem.
414
Theodore Ts'o07025ae2001-05-21 01:39:02 +0000415 * fsck.c: Make sure all exit status codes returned by fsck are

452 excess "anonymous" in the AVAILABILITY section.
453
Theodore Ts'o6d56d512001-05-12 15:46:21 +0000454 * chattr.1.in, lsattr.1.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update URL location of
455 e2fsprogs package.
456
Theodore Ts'od71a4952001-05-07 16:53:26 +00004572001-05-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +00004612001-05-05 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
462
Theodore Ts'o609c9d02001-05-05 06:45:05 +0000463 * fsck.8.in: Add explicit language to describe how options get
464 passed to filesystem-specific checkers.
465
Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +0000466 * badblocks.8.in: Fixed man page to describe the first optional
467 parameter to badblocks as last_block, instead of
468 num_blocks. (Debian bug #87216)
469
470 * badblocks.c: Change the blocks_count variable to be last_count,
471 which is a more accurate description of the variable.
472
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +00004732001-05-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
474
Theodore Ts'o348e43d2001-05-03 14:43:43 +0000475 * e2image.8.in: New manual page
476
477 * badblocks.8.in, e2label.8.in, mke2fs.8.in mklost+found.8.in,
478 tune2fs.8.in: Update location of e2fsprogs to be
479 http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
480
481 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs
482 to dump out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image
483 file.
484
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +0000485 * e2image.c (main): Fix format of e2image to be easier to be parse

487
Theodore Ts'o45d70862001-05-01 15:44:37 +00004882001-05-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
489
490 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine
491 the base device, we should assume that the device is
492 already active in order to force serialization.
493
Theodore Ts'oce57f142001-04-26 04:25:39 +00004942001-04-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
495
496 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Interpret -c 0 as -c -1 (for
497 backwards compatibility with older kernels). -c 0 makes
498 more sense to users.
499
Theodore Ts'o4d0f2282001-04-23 20:58:03 +00005002001-04-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
501
502 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): If the force flag is given,
503 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
504 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
505 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
506 from journal device.
507 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
508 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
509 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
510
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +00005112001-04-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
512
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +0000513 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
514 documentation for the extern journal device support.
515
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000516 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage
517 message.
518
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +00005192001-04-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
520
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +0000521 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
522 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
523
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000524 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
525 number to be treated as a journal size.
526
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000527 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
528 look nicer.
529
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +0000530 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
531 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
532 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
533 entire device to get zero'ed.
534
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +00005352001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
536
537 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +0000538 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 102,400 file system
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000539 blocks.
540
541 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
542
543 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
544 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
545 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
546 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
547 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
548 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
549 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
550 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
551 using the absolute size of the journal.
552
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +00005532001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
554
555 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
556 Also handle the case where the default journal size
557 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
558 the filesystem will be checked.
559
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00005602001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
561
562 * e2image.c (main): Add code to write the e2image header.
563
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +00005642001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
565
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000566 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
567 sparse_super.
568
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000569 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
570 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
571 in hex.
572
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000573 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
574 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
575
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00005762001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
577
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000578 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
579 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
580 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
581 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
582 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
583 with the rest of the options out there.)
584
585 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
586 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
587 from the external journal's filesystem list.
588
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000589 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
590 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
591 given a filesystem size.
592
593 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
594 small as 1MB.
595
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000596 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
597 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
598
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00005992001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
600
601 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
602 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
603 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
604
605 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
606 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
607 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
608 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
609 have been created via separate step.
610
611 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
612 information about an external journal device.
613
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00006142001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
615
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000616 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
617 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
618 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
619 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
620 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
621 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
622 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
623 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
624
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000625 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
626
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000627 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
628 stdout after printing in-progress message.
629 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
630 the mount status of the device.
631
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +00006322001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
633
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000634 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
635 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
636 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
637 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
638 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
639
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000640 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
641 flush the device.
642
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000643 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
644
Theodore Ts'o83238152001-01-09 00:16:26 +00006452001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
646
647 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
648 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
649 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
650
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00006512001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
652
653 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
654 prototype.
655
656 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
657 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
658 complaints.
659
660 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
661
662 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
663 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
664
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00006652001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
666
667 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
668 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
669 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
670 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
671
672 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
673 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
674 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
675
676 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
677 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
678
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00006792001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
680
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000681 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
682 struct ext2_super_block.
683
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000684 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
685 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
686 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000687 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
688 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
689 using our own version now).

692
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000693 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
694 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
695 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
696 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
697 the parallel_root option.
698
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000699 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
700 the file attributes.
701
702 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
703 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
704
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000705 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
706 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
707 support for the journaled data flag.
708
709 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
710
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00007112000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
712
713 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
714
715 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
716 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
717
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00007182000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
719
720 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
721 names.
722
723 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
724 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
725 instead of core dumping.
726
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00007272000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
728
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000729 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
730 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
731 journal creation routines for this purpose.
732
733 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
734 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
735
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000736 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
737 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
738
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00007392000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
740
741 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
742 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
743 memory.
744
745 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
746 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
747
748 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
749
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00007502000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
751
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000752 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
753 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
754 #63442)
755
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000756 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
757 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
758 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
759 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
760 #65267)
761
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000762 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
763 group names to uid's before storing them in the
764 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
765
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00007662000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
767
768 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
769 option=argument style options, and add support for
770 creating filesystems with external journals.
771
772 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
773
Theodore Ts'o72ed1262000-11-12 19:32:20 +00007742000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
775
776 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
777 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
778
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00007792000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
780
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000781 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
782 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
783 at this point.)
784
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000785 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
786 character labels.
787
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000788 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
789 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
790 other devices.
791
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000792 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
793 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
794 journal.
795
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00007962000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
797
798 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
799 didn't catch.
800
Theodore Ts'o3f1e9a52000-09-12 21:21:52 +00008012000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
802
803 * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
804 systems with four IDE interfaces.
805
Theodore Ts'od7e39b02000-09-11 17:01:35 +00008062000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
807
808 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
809 fails.
810
811 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
812 the inode table location in non-hex format.
813
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00008142000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
815
816 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
817 we can't find the device using the name given by
818 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
819 into the kernel, but not mounted.)
820
Theodore Ts'o80c22c92000-08-14 15:32:11 +00008212000-06-27 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolabs.com>
822
823 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
824 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
825 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
826
827 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
828
Theodore Ts'oe41784e2000-08-14 14:44:15 +00008292000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
830
831 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
832 zap_sect.
833 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
834 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
835
Theodore Ts'o28412de2000-07-27 02:45:55 +00008362000-07-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
837
838 * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
839 fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
840
Theodore Ts'of9e67062000-07-13 23:25:54 +00008412000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
842
843 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
844
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +00008452000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
846
847 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
848 are mutually exclusive.
849
850 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
851 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
852 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
853 the long run.)
854
855 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
856 variable before going into the write verification loop.
857 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
858 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
859 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
860 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
861 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
862 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
863 routines anymore.
864
865 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
866 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
867 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
868 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
869 format string.
870
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00008712000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
872
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +0000873 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
874 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
875 the progress bar display logic.
876
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +0000877 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
878 max_mount_count is negative.
879
880 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
881 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
882 check.
883
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +0000884 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
885 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
886 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
887 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
888 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
889 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
890
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000891 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
892 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
893 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
894
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000895 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
896 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000897 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
898 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000899
900 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
901 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
902 device as a default.
903
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +00009042000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
905
906 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
907 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
908 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
909 old, overly complicated logic.
910 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
911 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
912 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
913
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +00009142000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
915
916 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
917 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
918 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
919 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
920
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00009212000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
922
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +0000923 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
924 or LABEL= specification is given.
925
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +0000926 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
927 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
928 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
929 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
930 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
931 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
932
933 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
934 proceed_question that was busted due to the
935 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
936 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
937 cleared of the previous question's newline.
938
Theodore Ts'oe2207ce2000-04-06 21:51:18 +0000939Thu Apr 6 17:50:25 2000 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@signal.thunk.org>
940
941 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
942 support fdatasync().
943
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00009442000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
945
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +0000946 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
947 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
948 manually define optarg and optind.
949
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +0000950 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
951 Beattie.
952
953 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
954 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
955 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
956 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
957
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +0000958 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
959 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
960 address.
961 chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
962
Theodore Ts'oe1a0a3e2000-02-11 05:00:19 +00009632000-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
964
965 * chattr.1.in:
966 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
967
968 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
969
970 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
971
972 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
973 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
974
975 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
976 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
977 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
978 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
979 the same flag.
980
981 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
982 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
983 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.
984

986
Theodore Ts'od9c56d32000-02-08 00:47:55 +0000987 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
988 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
989 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
990 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
991 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
992
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +0000993 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
994 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
995 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
996 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
997 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
998 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
999
1000 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
1001
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +000010022000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1003
1004 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
1005 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
1006 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
1007 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
1008 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
1009
1010 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
1011 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
1012
1013 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h
1014

1016
1017 * tune2fs.c (usage): Update the usage message to correctly
1018 document the -s option.
1019
Theodore Ts'o879ac922000-01-18 20:59:11 +000010202000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
1021
1022 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
1023 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
1024 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
1025 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
1026
1027 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
1028 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
1029 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
1030 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
1031 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
1032 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
1033 Finally, the original data is written back.
1034
1035 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
1036 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
1037 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
1038 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
1039 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
1040 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
1041 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
1042 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
1043 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
1044 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
1045 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
1046 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
1047 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
1048 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
1049 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
1050
1051 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
1052 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
1053 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
1054 randomly.
1055
1056 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
1057 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
1058
1059 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
1060 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
1061 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
1062 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
1063 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
1064 and want the host hard drive to flush.
1065
1066 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
1067 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
1068 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
1069 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
1070 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
1071 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
1072 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
1073 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
1074 scan).
1075
1076 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
1077 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
1078 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
1079 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
1080 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
1081 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
1082 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
1083 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
1084 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
1085 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
1086 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
1087 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
1088 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
1089 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
1090 completely reliable.
1091
1092 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
1093 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
1094 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
1095 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
1096 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
1097 for your information.
1098
1099 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
1100 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
1101 which I install which will write back whatever original
1102 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
1103 (except SIGKILL, of course).
1104
1105 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
1106 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
1107 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
1108 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
1109 could learn how to update the manpage and other
1110 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
1111 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
1112 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
1113 should be in the distribution."

1147
1148 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
1149 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
1150 fsck -As can do so interactively.
1151

1157
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +00001158 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
1159 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
1160 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
1161
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +00001162 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
1163 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
1164 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
1165 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
1166
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001167 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +00001168 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
1169 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
1170 gcc warnings.
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +00001171
Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +00001172 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
1173 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
1174 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
1175 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
1176 the child process.
1177
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +00001178 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
1179 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
1180
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +000011811999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
1182
1183 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
1184 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +00001185 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
1186 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
1187 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00001188

1198
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +00001199 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
1200 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
1201 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
1202 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
1203
1204 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
1205 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
1206 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
1207 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
1208

1212 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
1213 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
1214 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
1215 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
1216
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +000012171999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>

Theodore Ts'o671cbfa1999-10-20 18:14:23 +00001219 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
1220 changing the sparse superblock option
1221
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00001222 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
1223 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
1224 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
1225 unhandled SIGUSR1.

1233
1234 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
1235 Dirson.
1236
1237 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
1238 kernels.
1239
1240 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
1241 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
1242 flag.
1243
1244 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
1245 (header-only).
1246
12471999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
1248
1249 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
1250 superblock option.
1251

Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +000012561999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1257
1258 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
1259 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
1260 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
1261 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
1262 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
1263 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
1264 the filesystem the system would make.
1265
12661999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
1267
1268 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
1269 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
1270 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
1271 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
1272 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
1273

Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +00001275
1276 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
1277 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
1278 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
1279
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000012801999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +00001281
1282 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
1283 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
1284
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +000012851999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +00001286
1287 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
1288 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
1289 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
1290 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
1291 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
1292 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
1293
1294 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
1295 UUID=bar type specifications.
1296
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +000012971999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
1298
1299 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
1300 clear out a large block number.
1301
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +000013021999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
1303
1304 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
1305 appears mounted if the force option is given.
1306
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +000013071999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
1308
1309 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
1310 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
1311
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +000013121999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1313
1314 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
1315 code cleanups.

Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +000013171999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1318
1319 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
1320 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
1321 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
1322 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
1323
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +000013241999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
1325
1326 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
1327 generate UUIDs.
1328
13291999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1330
1331 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
1332 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
1333
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +000013341999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1335
1336 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
1337 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
1338 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
1339 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
1340
13411999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1342
1343 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
1344 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
1345 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
1346 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
1347 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
1348 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
1349
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +000013501999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1351
1352 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
1353 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
1354 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
1355 fsck pass structure.
1356 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
1357 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
1358 to finish.
1359
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +000013601999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1370
1371 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
1372 needs to be treated as zero.
1373
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +000013741999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1375
Theodore Ts'o8d641742001-05-14 04:12:27 +00001376 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add -N option to allow the user to specify
1377 exactly how many inodes he/she wishes.
Theodore Ts'o5515e6b1999-01-05 07:25:06 +00001378
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +00001379 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
1380 program if the -V option is given.
1381
1382 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
1383 through a directory.
1384
Theodore Ts'o93ab9d71999-01-02 04:04:42 +000013851999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1386
1387 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
1388 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
1389 /etc/fstab file.
1390 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
1391 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
1392
13931998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1394
1395 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
1396 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
1397
Theodore Ts'o556ad131998-12-19 08:10:58 +000013981998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1412
1413 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
1414 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
1415 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
1416

1450 trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is,
1451 it isn't pretty.)
1452
14531998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1454
1455 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number

1466 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
1467 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
1468 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
1469 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1470

1490 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
1491 that the label will be truncated.
1492
1493 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1494 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1495 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1496
Theodore Ts'obbfa3aa1998-03-21 07:12:46 +000014971998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1515 first one).
1516

1764 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
1765 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1766 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1767 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1768 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1769 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1770 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1771 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1772 option turned on.
1773

1784Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1785
1786 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1787 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1788 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1789 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1790 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1791
1792Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1793
1794 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
1795 ext2fs_test_bit().
1796

1798
1799 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1800 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
1801
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +00001802Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1803
1804 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1805
1806Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1807
1808 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1809 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1810 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1811
1812Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1813
1814 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
1815 the same order.
1816
1817Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1818
1819 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1820 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1821
1822 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
1823 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
1824 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
1825 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
1826
1827Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1828
1829 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
1830 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
1831 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
1832 check.
1833
1834Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1835
1836 * badblocks.8:
1837 * chattr.1:
1838 * dumpe2fs.8:
1839 * fsck.8:
1840 * lsattr.1:
1841 * mke2fs.8:
1842 * mklost+found.8:
1843 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
1844
1845Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1846
1847 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
1848 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
1849 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
1850
1851 * mke2fs.8:
1852 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
1853
1854Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1855
1856 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
1857 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
1858 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
1859
1860Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1861
1862 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
1863 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
1864 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
1865 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
1866 advisable.
1867
1868 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
1869 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
1870 alloca is not portable!
1871
1872 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
1873 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
1874 /etc/fstab.
1875
1876 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
1877
1878Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
1879
1880 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
1881 benefit.
1882
1883 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
1884
1885 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1886 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
1887
1888Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1889
1890 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1891 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
1892
1893Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1894
1895 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
1896
1897 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
1898 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
1899
1900 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
1901
1902Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1903
1904 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
1905 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
1906 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
1907 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1908
1909 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
1910 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1911 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
1912 statically sized buffer.
1913 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1914 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1915
1916 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
1917 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
1918 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
1919 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
1920 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
1921
1922 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
1923 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
1924 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
1925 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
1926 (test_rw): Ditto.
1927
1928 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1929 support separate compilation directories.
1930
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +00001931Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
1932
1933 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
1934 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
1935 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
1936 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
1937
1938 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
1939 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
1940 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
1941 very large partition.
1942
1943 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
1944 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
1945 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
1946
1947 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
1948 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
1949 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
1950 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
1951 ioctl, which most do.)
1952
1953 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
1954 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
1955 during 0.5b development.)
1956
1957Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1958
1959 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
1960 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
1961 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
1962 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
1963 measure).
1964
1965 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
1966 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
1967 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
1968
1969Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1970
1971 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
1972
1973 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
1974 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
1975 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
1976
1977Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1978
1979 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
1980 new options.
1981 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
1982
1983Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1984
1985 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
1986 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
1987 all partitions should be checked.
1988
1989Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1990
1991 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
1992 structures.
1993
1994 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
1995 the effective uid.
1996
1997Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1998
1999 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
2000 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
2001
2002Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2003
2004 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
2005
2006Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
2007
2008 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
2009 read-only test.
2010
2011 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
2012
2013 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
2014
2015 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
2016
2017 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
2018
2019 (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
2020
2021Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
2022
2023 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
2024 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
2025 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
2026 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
2027 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
2028
2029 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
2030 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
2031 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
2032 statistics if necessary.
