the kernel version is 2.4.10 -- 2.4.17, since otherwise an
old version of glibc (built against 2.2 headers) will
interact badly with the workaround to actually cause more
problems. I hate it when the glibc folks think they're
being smarter than the kernel....
8192-byte and 16384-byte blocksize filesystems.
Change the default bytes-per-inode ratio of a new filesystem to be at most
one inode per block for large blocksizes.
the EXT2_SB() macro instead. Remove kernel function
prototypes also. This matches the 2.5 kernel, and
is also cleaner for other reasons. Whitespace cleanup.
mapping for a particular inode.
Fixed a bug in the libext2 library which broke ext2fs_bmap if no inode structre
was passed inside for here.
Fixed bad calling parameters to parse_ulong which broken the -b and -s
options to debugfs, as well as do_init, and the testb, setb, clearb functions.
file we are checking is a block device file before looking
at st_rdev, since it's not valid for normal files.
(is_swap_device): Move so that it is outside the
HAVE_MNTENT_H, so that it is always built.
functions which take an extra flags argument. The flag
EXT2_DIRBLOCK_V2_STRUCT will reverse when the name_len
field is byte swampped on big-endian machines, since in
the V2 structure, name_len is a char field which is
doesn't need to be byte swapped --- except if an
old-style kernel had byte-swapped the name_len field
as part of the V1 structure.
Also fixed a bug in debugfs which used ext2_dir_entry_2 without
worrying about the above issue, with the net result that "ls -l"
would print an incorrect file type on big-endian systems.
an I/O object.
Export ext2_file_flush as a public interface.
Also minor cleanups to tighten code in other I/O abstractions, and to
mark a void * pointer as const in the ext2_file_write interface.
Add support for a new flag, DIRENT_FLAG_INCLUDE_REMOVED,
which will return deleted directory entries.
ext2fs_dir_iterate2 takes a new callback function which
is identical with the one used by
ext2fs_dblist_dir_iterate(). If the directory entry is
deleted, the callback function will be called with the
entry paraemter set to DIRENT_DELETED_FILE.
Makefile.in, alloc_stats.c (ext2fs_inode_alloc_stats,
ext2fs_block_alloc_stats): New functions which update
block/inode allocation statistics in the bitmaps, block
group descriptors, and superblock.
mkjournal.c (mkjournal_proc), mkdir.c (ext2fs_mkdir),
expanddir.c (expand_dir_proc), bb_inode.c
(clear_bad_block_proc, set_bad_block_proc,
ext2fs_update_bb_inode), alloc.c (ext2fs_alloc_block):
Update to use new block/inode allocation statistics.
ext2fs_check_if_mounted and ext2fs_check_mount_point which
determines whether or not the specified device is a swap
device by using /proc/swaps. More bulletproofing for
idiotic/careless system administrators!
since files which get dropped into that directory may have come
from a protected directory, and the system administrator may not
deal with immediately. (Addresses Debian bug #118443)
trying to unset the filesize limit if at all possible,
if a block device is getting opened. (The filesize limit
shouldn't be applied against writes to a block device, but
starting in 2.4.10, the kernel is doing this.)
file on adding a journal to an already-mounted filesystem,
try to clear the ext2 file attributes on an already
existing .journal file so that we don't fail if on a
partially added journal to the filesystem.
which signals that a particular inode should not have the
last bits of data (the "tail") be merged with another
file. This is necessary to keep programs like LILO happy.
/etc/mtab to make sure the filesystem is really mounted,
since some broken distributions (read: Slackware) have
buggy boot scripts that don't initialize /etc/mtab before
checking non-root filesystems. (Slackware also doesn't
check the root filesystem separately, and reboot if the
root filesystem had changes applied to it, which is
dangerous and broken.)
