S. Engelshall; when generating a random ethernet address
because one is not available, set the least significant
bit of the first byte of the MAC address, since it is the
first bit to be transmitted, and is therefore the
multicast bit.
incorrectly treat as valid symlinks created with SE Linux
(Debian bug #228723) as well as failing the f_journal test case on
big endian systems due to the backup journal blocks not being swapped.
the superblock and block group descriptors into two functions:
ext2fs_reserve_super_and_bgd, found in lib/ext2fs/alloc_sb.c, and
ext2fs_super_and_bgd_lock, found in lib/ext2fs/close.c.
Change e2fsck/pass1.c (mark_table_blocks), lib/ext2fs/closefs.c
(ext2fs_flush), lib/ext2fs/initialize.c (ext2fs_initialize),
and misc/dumpe2fs.c (list_desc) to use these functions.
e2fsck/ChangeLog
pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Use the new function
ext2fs_reserve_super_and_bgd to calculate the blocks to be
reserved.
lib/ext2fs/ChangeLog
closefs.c (ext2fs_super_and_bgd_loc): New function which
centralizes the calculation of the superblock and block
group descriptors.
(ext2fs_flush): Use ext2fs_super_and_bgd_lock to figure
out where to write the superblock and block group
descriptors.
alloc_sb.c (ext2fs_reserve_super_and_bgd): New function which
reserves space in the block bitmap using
ext2fs_super_and_bgd_loc.
initialize.c (ext2fs_initialize): Use
ext2fs_reserve_super_and_bgd to initialize the block bitmap.
misc/ChangeLog
dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Use ext2fs_super_and_bgd_loc to
determine the locations of the superblock and block group
descriptors.
superblock. E2fsck will automatically save the journal information
in the superblock if it is not there already, and will use it if the
journal inode appears to be corrupted. ext2fs_add_journal_inode()
will also save the backup information, so that new filesystems
created by mke2fs and filesystems that have journals added via
tune2fs will also have journal location written to the superblock as
well. Debugfs's logdump command has been enhanced so that it can
use the journal information in the superblock.
The debugfs man page has been improved to more fully describe the
logdump command.
Added two new functions, ext2fs_file_open2() and
ext2fs_inode_io_intern2() which take a pointer to an inode structure;
this is needed so that e2fsck and debugfs can synthesize a
fake journal inode and use it to access the journal.
error, then reflect that error upwards; don't try again
(forever). This prevents an infinite loop when /proc and
the /etc/blkid.tab file are not present.
non-empty bad block list. Resize2fs now discards any blocks on the
badblock list which are no longer part of the filesystem as the result
of a filesystem shrink. (Note: this means that shrinking and then
enlarging a filesystem is no longer a reversible operation;
information about bad blocks in the part of the filesystem
which is to be chopped off will be lost.)
device is larger than the default block size, then use the
sector size of the device as the default block size.
getsectsize.c (ext2fs_get_device_sectsize): New function which
returns the hardware sector size (if it is available).
Declare comerr-dev as replacing << e2fslibs-dev 1.33-2, to avoid
errors when upgrading to the new versions of comerr-dev and
e2fslibs-dev
Declare init_error_table as taking a long for the second argument.
Add support for OV-style continuation (closes Debian bug #191900).
Move /usr/include/com_err.h from the e2fslibs-dev package to the
comerr-dev package. (closes Debian bug #191899)
tune2fs to use the test I/O manager.
The test I/O manager has been changed to not do anything extra by
default, unless the TEST_IO_FLAGS and/or TEST_IO_BLOCK environment
variables are set, which controls what I/O operations are logged and
a block number to watch, respectively. The log messages are sent to
stderr by default, unless a filename is specified via the
TEST_IO_LOGFILE environment variable.
Fix typo's in README.subset
Change debian control file so it doesn't bomb out if the EVMS FSIM
is not there, since it is not built on the Hurd. Resolves Debian
bug #189687.
Fixed possible hangs caused by bugs in calling waitpid, and not
setting the pipe to non-blocking mode. Also fixed a file descriptor
leak. Made sure all functions call log entry/exit functions.
from the system PRNG (i.e., random/srandom, seeded from
the time, pid, and uid) in case /dev/random isn't doing
the right thing on a particular system. It doesn't hurt,
and it can help, in the case of a buggy /dev/random.
instead of <com_err.h>, so the current version of the header file
is used.
Add a --build-tree option to compile_et to make sure that it uses
the et_?.awk files from the build tree.
Remove legacy support for varargs.h, K&R C, and pre-POSIX signal
support. Also fixed gcc -Wall nits.
