The log2 of the ratio of cluster size to block size is far more useful
than just storing the cluster size. So make this change, and then
define basic utility macros: EXT2FS_CLUSTER_RATIO(),
EXT2FS_CLUSTER_MASK(), EXT2FS_B2C(), EXT2FS_C2B(), and
EXT2FS_NUM_B2C().

User namespace xattrs are generally useful, and I think extN
is the only filesystem requiring a special mount option to
enable them, when xattrs are otherwise available. So this
change sets that mount option into the defaults, via a
mke2fs.conf option.
Note that if xattrs are config'd off, this will lead to a
mostly-harmless:

The forced fsck often comes at unexpected and inopportune moments,
and even enterprise customers are often caught by surprise when
this happens. Because a filesystem with an error condition will
be marked as requiring fsck anyway, I submit that the time-based
and mount-based checks are not particularly useful, and that
administrators can schedule fscks on their own time, or tune2fs
the enforced intervals if they so choose. This patch disables the
intervals by default, and I've added a new mkfs.conf option to
turn on the old behavior of random, unexpected, time-consuming
fscks at boot time. ;)

Some bootloaders, like SILO, don't provide sprintf in their limited
bootloader environment. Since the uses in rw_bitmaps.c is only doing
sprintf("foo %s"), it's easy to replace that usage with strcpy/strcat.

Change the way we allocate bitmaps and inode tables if the FLEX_BG
feature is used at mke2fs time. It places calculates a new offset for
bitmaps and inode table base on the number of groups that the user
wishes to pack together using the new "-G" option. Creating a
filesystem with 64 block groups in a flex group can be done by:
mke2fs -j -I 256 -O flex_bg -G 32 /dev/sdX

This fixes some bugs which I introduced recently while revamping the
uninit_bg code. Since mke2fs is no longer calling
ext2fs_set_gdt_csum(), it's important that ext2fs_initialize()
correctly initialize bg_itable_unused for all block group descriptors.
In addition, mke2fs needs to zero out the the reserved inodes based on
the values of bg_itable_unused set by ext2fs_initialize().

Mke2fs used to have special case, ugly code in
setup_lazy_bg/setup_uninit_bg flag which set the flags based on all
sorts of special cases. Change it so that it is done in libext2fs,
and fix mke2fs to use alloc_stats functions which will take care of
clearing the *_UNINIT flags automatically as needed.
This is preparatory work to make the flex_bg allocation patch much
cleaner.

This addresses a potential security vulnerability where an untrusted
filesystem can be corrupted in such a way that a program using
libext2fs will allocate a buffer which is far too small. This can
lead to either a crash or potentially a heap-based buffer overflow
crash. No known exploits exist, but main concern is where an
untrusted user who possesses privileged access in a guest Xen
environment could corrupt a filesystem which is then accessed by the
pygrub program, running as root in the dom0 host environment, thus
allowing the untrusted user to gain privileged access in the host OS.

For some odd geometries*, mkfs will try to allocate inode tables off
the end of the block group and fail, rather than warning that too
many inodes have been requested.
This is because when ext2fs_initialize calculates metadata overhead,
it is only adding in group descriptor blocks and the superblock
if the *last* bg contains them - but the first bg also has all of
the various metadata bits taking up space.
We need to calculate the overhead both for the first block group and
the last block groups separately, since the two different tests need
to know what the overheads are for those two cases, which may be
different.
*for example "mke2fs -b 1024 -m 0 -g 256 -N 3745 fsfile 1024"
(Note, the test here is a little funky; the expected output is
actually a mkfs failure - but a proper failure instead of the
allocator catching the problem at the last minute)

The e2fsprogs and kernel implementation of directory hash tree has a
bug which causes the implementation to be dependent on whether
characters are signed or unsigned. Platforms such as the PowerPC,
Arm, and S/390 have signed characters by default, which means that
hash directories on those systems are incompatible with hash
directories on other systems, such as the x86.
To fix this we add a new flags field to the superblock, and define two
new bits in that field to indicate whether or not the directory should
be signed or unsigned. If the bits are not set, e2fsck and fixed
kernels will set them to the signed/unsigned value of the currently
running platform, and then respect those bits when calculating the
directory hash. This allows compatibility with current filesystems,
as well as allowing cross-architectural compatibility.

(ext2fs_flush), lib/ext2fs/initialize.c (ext2fs_initialize),
and misc/dumpe2fs.c (list_desc) to use these functions.

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.

Makefile.in: Add message.c and swapfs.c to the list of source files to

ENABLE_SWAPFS is defined.
Many files:
ext2fs.h, bitops.h, block.c, bmap.c, closefs.c, dirblock.c, inode.c,
native.c, openfs.c, rw_bitmaps.c, swapfs.c: Only include the
byte-swapping logic if ENABLE_SWAPFS is turned on or if we're on a
big-endian machine.
initialize.c (ext2fs_initialize):Use WORDS_BIGENDIAN directly to set
EXT2_FLAG_SWAP_BYTES, instead of using ext2fs_native_flag.
native.c (ext2fs_native_flag): Use WORDS_BIGENDIAN provided by
autoconf to determine whether or not return EXT2_FLAG_SWAP_BYTES.
initialize.c (ext2fs_initialize): Add support for initializing the
ext2 superblock for external journal devices. This basically means we
don't bother to allocate any block group descriptors.
openfs.c (ext2fs_open): Only open external journal devices if the new
flag EXT2_FLAG_JOURNAL_DEV_OK is passed to ext2fs_open. When opening
such devices, don't try to read the block group descriptors, since
they're not there.
ext2_err.et.in (EXT2_NO_JOURNAL_SB): Add new error code
mkjournal.c: Export a new function,
ext2fs_create_journal_superblock(), which allocates and returns a
buffer containing a journal superblock. This is needed by mke2fs to
create an external journal. Rewrote ext2fs_add_journal_device() so
that it no longer creates the external journal, but rather adds a
filesystem to an existing external journal. It handles all of the
UUID manipulation.
ext2fs.h: List the EXT3_FEATURE_JOURNAL_DEV as a flag supported by the
library. Define the EXT2_FLAG_JOURNAL_DEV_OK. Changed function
prototype for ext2fs_add_journal_device().
ext2fs.h: Remove definition of ext2fs_sb. Note: this may break source
(but not binary) compatibility of some users of the ext2 library.
They should just simply do a global search and replace of struct
ext2fs_sb with struct ext2_super_block, and use their own private copy
of ext2_fs.h if they aren't already.
closefs.c, initialize.c, link.c, newdir.c, openfs.c, swapfs.c: Replace
use of ext2fs_sb with ext2_super_block.
ChangeLog, main.c:
main.c (main): Replace use of struct ext2fs_sb with struct ext2_super_block.
ext2_fs.h (i_reserved2): Use __GNU__ instead of __hurd__ to detect the
Hurd OS. To protect against future irrationality on the part of the
FSF concerning whether Linux is GNU or not, on a system which defines
both __linux__ and __GNU___, __linux__ takes precedence.
ChangeLog, initialize.c:
initialize.c (CREATOR_OS): Use __GNU__ instead of __gnu__ to detect
the Hurd OS.
ChangeLog, debugfs.c:
debugfs.c (do_dirty_filesys): Make the "dirty" command clear the valid
bit on the superblock. (And with a -clean option to set the valid
bit.) Originally it was used just to set the "needs to be written"
bit in the in-core version of the fs structure.
