the resize= raid/extended option so it actually works.
(The patch from Fedora e2fsprogs-1.35-11.2 claimed it
worked, but it was a placebo, despite the claim that it
worked in the usage message.)
caret ('^') character to negate feature sets when using
the -O option. Define the has_journal feature to avoid
confusion about what ^has_journal means.
a read/write test on the disk. Update the man pages to encourage
using the -c option, and to discouraging running badblocks separately,
since users tend to forget to set the blocksize when running
badblocks.
function in get_device_by_label.c to allow the use of
UUID= or LABEL= when creating filesystems which use external
journal dev (e.g. mke2fs -J device=LABEL=<journal_label>).
tune2fs.c: Use superblock s_journal_uuid to locate an external
journal device instead of s_journal_dev when removing it.
Allow opening journal devices to set the label and UUID
in the ext2 superblock.
mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Free journal_device after use, as it is
malloc'd in interpret spec.
Clarify some of the Changelog entries.
ChangeLog, fsck.8.in, mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in:
fsck.8.in, mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Fix typo's and make other
clarifications suggested by Andreas Dilger.
ChangeLog, tune2fs.c:
tune2fs.c (update_feature_set): Clean up some printf messages.
dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs to dump
out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image file.
Many files:
e2image.8.in: New manual page
badblocks.8.in, e2label.8.in, mke2fs.8.in mklost+found.8.in,
tune2fs.8.in: Update location of e2fsprogs to be
http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
ke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
journal must be bewteen 1024 and 10,240 file system blocks.
mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change journal_default_size into
routine which also converts the requested journal size into filesystem
blocks and does bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal size, since
this is now done in figure_journal_size, and based on the number of
filesystem blocks, as opposed to using the absolute size of the
journal.
tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user interface
so that -J is used to specify journal options, and -j is used to
request creation of a journal using default values. (This is a UI
change, but we haven't done a formal release, and it makes things much
more consistent with the rest of the options out there.)
tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an external
journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID from the external
journal's filesystem list.
mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4, for
those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and 4MB,
respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be has high as 4MB.
Make the s_max_mount_count vary between 20 and 40, to avoid needing to
check all of the filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter
to the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all of the
filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses option=argument
style options, and add support for creating filesystems with external
journals.
mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): If the filesystem does not support imagic
inodes, if an inode has the imagic flag set, offer to clear the imagic
flag. If a valid device/fifo/socket has the immutable flag set, call
the new helper function check_immutable() to offerto clear the
immutable flag.
pass2.c (check_filetype): Use the new ext2_file_type() helper function
instead of calculating the file_type information manually.
pass3.c (e2fsck_reconnect_file): When adding a link to lost+found,
calculate the filetype information so that ext2fs_link() can use the
information if applicable. (get_lost_and_found): Create the
/lost+found directory with the correct filetype information if
applicable.
util.c (ext2_file_type), e2fsck.h: New function which returns the
directory entry file type information given the inode's mode bits.
problem.c, problem.h: Added new problem codes PR_1_SET_IMAGIC and
PR_1_SET_IMMUTABLE.
ChangeLog, mke2fs.8.in:
mke2fs.8.in: Update manual page so that the sparse_option filesystem
option is properly named.
Update to pass new required parameter to e2p_edit_features
mke2fs.8.in:
Update man page to add explanatory note about how the default block
size is determined.
tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to set and
clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags. Currently, the only
ones which are supported for modification are sparse_superblock and
filetype.
mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to request
filesystems with specific filesystem options. By default on 2.2 and
later systems, create filesystems that have both file type information
and sparse superblocks.
badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by
Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
ChangeLog, e2fsck.8.in:
e2fsck.8.in: Update man page to use a more standard format (bold
option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by Andreas Dilger
(adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
ChangeLog, uuid_generate.3.in:
uuid_generate.8.in: Update man page to use a more standard format
(bold option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by Andreas
Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann Dirson.
mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2 kernels.
mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs. Document
the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s flag.
dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h (header-only).
mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse superblock option.
Many files:
Updated copyright statements to reflect the GPL with permission of the
original authors.
* mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows the
user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used. Mke2fs now
chooses the filesystem parameters automatically based on the size of
the filesystem and the intended use of the filesystem. Add new option
-n which simply goes through the calculations to determine the
parameters of the filesystem the system would make.
* fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will print
completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems are being checked,
arrange to make sure that only one e2fsck process is displaying a
progress bar at a time.
e2fsck.h:
pass1.c (pass1_get_blocks, pass1_read_inode, pass1_write_inode,
pass1_check_directory, e2fsck_use_inode_shortcuts): Make pass1_* be
private static functions, and create new function
e2fsck_use_inode_shortcuts which sets and clears the inode shortcut
functions in the fs structure.
e2fsck.h:
pass2.c (e2fsck_process_bad_inode): Make process_bad_inode() an
exported function.
pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Call e2fsck_process_bad_inode to check if a
disconnected inode has any problems before connecting it to
/lost+found. Bug and suggested fix by Pavel Machek <pavel@bug.ucw.cz>
ChangeLog, swapfs.c:
swapfs.c (ext2fs_swap_inode): Add compatibility for Linux 2.3 kernels
that use i_generation instead of i_version. Patch supplied by Jon
Bright <sircus@sircus.demon.co.uk>.
ChangeLog, mke2fs.8.in:
mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks command
to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
ChangeLog, expect.1, expect.2, image.gz, name:
f_recnect_bad: New test which checks the case where a disconnect inode
also bad inode fields; we need to make sure e2fsck offers to fix the
inode (or clear the inode, as necessary).
Add a -V option which displays the current version.
ChangeLog, unix.c:
unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): Remove unused variables.
ChangeLog, inode.c:
inode.c (get_next_blockgroup): Fix bug where if get_next_blockgroup()
is called early because of a missing inode table in a block group, the
current_inode counter wasn't incremented correctly.
ChangeLog, tst_uuid.c:
tst_uuid.c (main): Fixed bogus declaration of the main's argv parameter.
ChangeLog, test_icount.c:
test_icount.c (main): Fix main() declaration so that it returns int,
not void.
Many files:
fsck.c (ignore): Remove unused variable cp.
chattr.c (fatal_error):
tune2fs.c (usage):
lsattr.c (usage):
dumpe2fs.c (usage):
badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration.
fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't trust
what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is, it isn't pretty.)
e2label.c: Fix -Wall warning by making functions static.
chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may only be set
or cleared by the superuser.
Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
up-to-date.
e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that labels
must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will be truncated.
e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is longer
than 16 characters, print a warning message stating that the label
will be truncated.
mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and it's
larger than the apparent size of the device, print a warning message
and ask if the user wants to proceed.
