E2fsprogs 1.41.2 (October 2, 2008)
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Fix e2fsck's automatic blocksize detection. This fixes a regression
|
||||
from e2fsprogs 1.40.7 which caused e2fsck to fail if the user
|
||||
specifies a block number using the -b option if the blocksize option
|
||||
isn't also specified using -B. Unfortunately, users very commonly
|
||||
invoke e2fsck using "e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/hdXXX" to use the backup
|
||||
superblock; in fack e2fsck will often suggest this kind of command
|
||||
line. Oops.
|
||||
|
||||
Enhance the debugfs's "ncheck" command so it will print all of the
|
||||
pathnames for the specified inodes. (Previously, in some cases ncheck
|
||||
might not print a pathname for an inode at all if some of the other
|
||||
inodes had multiple hard links.)
|
||||
|
||||
Enhance debugfs's "hash" command so the hash seed can be specified via
|
||||
a command-line option. In addition, allow the hash algorithm to be
|
||||
specified by name instead of just by number.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix e2fsck so that we don't accidentally print the translation file's
|
||||
header when asking the user a custom question so there is no prompt
|
||||
defined for a particular problem record. For example, the question
|
||||
"Run journal anyway" will get the PO header tacked on because e2fsck
|
||||
erroneously passed the null string to _(). (Addresses Launchpad Bug:
|
||||
#246892)
|
||||
|
||||
Enhance badblocks so that it can test a normal file which is greater
|
||||
than 2GB.
|
||||
|
||||
Enhance the badblocks command so that it displays the time and
|
||||
percentage complete when in verbose mode. (Addresses Debian Bug:
|
||||
#429739)
|
||||
|
||||
Fix a potential memory leak in a error handling path in debugfs's
|
||||
ncheck function.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix a potential memory corruption problem if a memory allocation fails
|
||||
in resize2fs.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix the usage message for debugfs's logdump command to be consistent
|
||||
with its man manpage.
|
||||
|
||||
Update Polish, French, Vietnamese, Dutch, Indonesian, German, Czech,
|
||||
and Sweedish translation from the Translation Project.
|
||||
|
||||
Add documentation for the file I/O functions to the libext2fs.texinfo
|
||||
file. (Addresses Debian Bug: #484877)
|
||||
|
||||
Update and clarified various man pages. (Addresses Launchpad Bug
|
||||
#275272; Addresses Debian Bugs: #498100, #498101, #498102, #498103)
|
||||
|
||||
Fixed various Debian packaging issues --- see debian/changelog for
|
||||
details. (Addresses Debian Bug: #497619)
|
||||
|
||||
Programmer's Notes
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Fix a potential file descriptor leack in libcom_err by setting the
|
||||
close-on-exec flag for a fd used for debugging. (Addresses Red Hat
|
||||
Bugzilla #464689)
|
||||
|
||||
Fix a potential race in libcom_err by using sem_post/sem_init. SuSE
|
||||
has been carrying a patch for a long time to prevent a largely
|
||||
theoretical race condition if a multi-threaded application adds and
|
||||
removes error tables in multiple threads. Unfortunately SuSE's
|
||||
approach breaks compatibility by forcing applications to link and
|
||||
compile with the -pthread option; using pthread mutexes has
|
||||
historically been problematic. We fix this by using sem_post/sem_init
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix e2fsprogs-libs build failure due to 'subs' target. (Addresses
|
||||
Sourceforge Bug: #2087502)
|
||||
|
||||
Avoid linking e2initrd_helper, debugfs, blkid, and fsck with unneeded
|
||||
libraries when using ELF shared libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix ELF shared library when building on systems that don't already
|
||||
have the e2fsprogs shared libraries already installed. (Addresses
|
||||
Sourceforge Bug: #2088537)
|
||||
|
||||
Fix the pkg-config files so they work correctly when linking with
|
||||
static libraries and fix the include directory so programs don't have
|
||||
to use #include <ext2fs/ext2fs.h>, but can use #include <ext2fs.h>
|
||||
instead. (Addresses Sourceforge Bug: #2089537)
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure ext2fs_swab64() is compiled for all platforms, and not just
|
||||
for x86. (Addresses Debian Bug: #497515)
|
||||
|
||||
Remove the unused ext2fs_find_{first,ext}_bit_set() functions for all
|
||||
non-x86 platforms. (They had been removed for x86 earlier.)
|
||||
|
||||
Fix diet libc compilation support, which had bitrotted due to lack of
|
||||
TLC. Fixing this improves general portability.
|
||||
|
||||
When installing the link library when using ELF shared libraries,
|
||||
avoid using absolute pathnames if the link library and the shared
|
||||
library are installed in the same directory. (Addresses Sourceforge
|
||||
Bug: #1782913)
|
||||
|
||||
Fix gen-tarball so it will work even if the top-level directory has
|
||||
been renamed to something other than "e2fsprogs". Also make
|
||||
gen-tarball print the size of the resulting tar.gz file.

||||
