We were complaining with a confusing error message if the user tried to specify
a check interval larger than a 365 days. It's probably a bad idea if the user wants to
do this, but it's not worth it to complain.

Add missing brelse() calls to avoid memory leaks in error paths. (Thanks
to Michael C. Thompson for pointing these out; they were originally
found using Coverity.)

Resize2fs will now automatically determine the RAID stride parameter that
had been used to create the filesystem, and use that for newly created
block groups. The RAID stride parameter may also be manually specified
on the command line using the new -S option to resize2fs.

The exlcusive device safety check that was added inadvertently broke
e2fsck -cc and mke2fs -cc since e2fsck and mke2fs hold the device
in exclusive access when badblocks is run. So we add a private option
to badblocks, -X, which is passed by e2fsck and mke2fs to badblocks
to indicate that it is OK to skip the EXT2_MF_BUSY checks.

Recent glibc's no longer accept LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4; this must be LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1. Also, only set LD_ASSUME_KERNEL if we
are not using a 2.4 kernel (and are presumably using something newer)

When allocating space for the RAID filesystems with the stride parameter,
place each portion of the group's inode table right up after the superblock
(if present) in order to minimize fragmentation of the freespace.

This feature is initially intended for testing purposes; it allows an
ext2/ext3 developer to create very large filesystems using sparse files
where most of the block groups are not initialized and so do not require
much disk space. Eventually it could be used as a way of speeding up
mke2fs and e2fsck for large filesystem, but that would be best done by
adding an RO_COMPAT extension to the filesystem to allow the inode table
to be lazily initialized on a per-block basis, instead of being entirely initialized
or entirely unused on a per-blockgroup basis.

Currently filefrag uses signed int for block numbers, thus it reporting
corrupted block number for a file on a more than 8TB ext3. The following
trivial patch replace the signed int type block number with "unsigned
long type.

This caused FTBFS bugs on AMD64 platforms, since it uses a different
64-bit type when compared with IA64, so we need to make our
autoconfiguration system more intelligent.

If the filesystem is opened in exclusive mode, then device will be
busy by definition, so don't return -EBUSY. This caused mke2fs -j to

Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.38+1.39-WIP-2005.12.31-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch, d-i
Let's call this an important wishlist bug (important for Debian Installer
anyway :-)
Please add the following line to the shlibs files for libblkid and libuuid
respectively:
udeb: libblkid 1 libblkid1-udeb
udeb: libuuid 1 libuuid1-udeb
This will allow dpkg/debhelper to properly set the dependencies for udebs
that depend on the e2fsprogs libs.
Please see #345472 and #345475 for further info on this.
This will also mean that, eventually, we will be able to drop the
"Provides: ..." for the library udebs, but we cannot do that until other
udebs that currently depend on them have been rebuilt.
I'll file a separate bug when that change can be made.

The x86 assembly instructures for bit test-and-set, test-and-clear,
etc., interpret the bit number as a 32-bit signed number, which is
problematic in order to support filesystems > 8TB.
Added new inline functions (in C) to implement a
ext2fs_fast_set/clear_bit() that does not return the old value of the
bit, and use it for the fast block/bitmap functions.
Added a regression test suite to test the low-level bit operations
functions to make sure they work correctly.
Note that a bitmap can address 2**32 blocks requires 2**29 bytes, or
512 megabytes. E2fsck requires 3 (and possibly 4 block bitmaps),
which means that the block bitmaps can require 2GB all by themselves,
and this doesn't include the 4 or 5 inode bitmaps (which assuming an
8k inode ratio, will take 256 megabytes each). This means that it's
more likely that a filesystem check of a filesystem greater than 2**31
blocks will fail if the e2fsck is dynamically linked (since the shared
libraries can consume a substantial portion of the 3GB address space
available to x86 userspace applications). Even if e2fsck is
statically linked, for a badly damaged filesystem, which may require
additional block and/or inode bitmaps, I am not sure e2fsck will
succeed in all cases.
