![]() 1) Only one tag with a particular name can be attached to a device at a time. This significantly simplifies the library, and was needed to allow the cache file to be re-read and changes integrated into the in-core version of the data structure in a simpler fashion than earlier versions of the library. 2) To accomodate this, the ext2/ext3 filesystems are now always tagged as "ext2" type filesystems. Ext3 filesystems are tagged with a SEC_TYPE tag with the value ext3. 3) The new blkid_read_cache() function checks the mod time of the cache file, and if the file has been changed since the last time the cache file was read into memory, it is re-read. This function is now called before probing all of the devices in the system or searching all devices in the cache for a specific tag value. 4) After probing all devices, blkid_flush_cache() is called to write out the cache file. This assures that all of the hard work involved in doing a blkid_probe_all() is saved to disk. |

README
This is the new version (1.31) of the second extended file system management programs. From time to time, I release new versions of e2fsprogs, to fix bugs and to make the utilities more robust. You can always find information about the latest version at the the e2fsprogs web page, which is: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net Note: If you are NOT using the RedHat RPM distributions of e2fsprogs, and are building e2fsprogs from source, please see the file INSTALL for instructions on building and installing e2fsprogs. In case of bugs in these programs, please contact Ted Ts'o at tytso@thunk.org or tytso@alum.mit.edu. See the e2fsck man page for suggestions of what sort of information to include when submitting bug reports for these programs.
