9 e2fsprogs (1.41.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
11 * New upstream release
12 * mke2fs now gives the correct error message if the external journal
13 is device is not found
14 * The resize2fs program will refuse to print the minimum size needed
15 for a file system if it is not clean.
16 * E2fsck now tests for extents that begin at physical block 0 and
17 rejects them as invalid.
18 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which could cause it to crash when trying to
19 remove an invalid extent and the block bitmaps hadn't yet been loaded.
20 * E2fsck will now completely skip time-based checks if the system
21 clock looks insane or if the broken_system_clock option is set
22 in /etc/e2fsck.conf. (Closes: #549861, #540152)
23 * Fixed a bug in e2fsck which caused e2fsck to complain about i_blocks
24 with a 4T file created using posix_fallocate()
25 * E2fsck will now correctly mark a sparse journal as invalid and will
26 delete and recreate the journal to address the problem.
27 * Fixed e2fsck not to ask permission from the user to abort if it's
28 going to abort regardless of what the user is going to say...
29 * E2fsck can now continue even if it fails to recreate the resize inode
30 * E2fsck will now avoid removing directory entries for inods found in
31 the unused region of the inode table until after it restarts the fs
32 check to avoid removing valid data.
33 * E2fsck will now longer try to set the block group checksums if it
35 * Mke2fs will check both the physical and logical blocksizes of a
36 device to better support 4k sector drives.
37 * Mke2fs will accept the valid (but rarely useful) flex_bg size of 1
38 * E2fsck will check for cases where the EOFBLOCKS_FL is set whe nit is
39 not needed, and offer to clear it.
40 * The com_err library will now only output a CR character if the
41 stderr is connected to a tty in raw mode.
42 * Update Czech, Chinese, Dutch, French, Germany, Indonesian, Polish,
43 and Vietnamese translations (from the Translation Project)
44 * Add an fsck.ext4 symlink in the e2fsprogs-udeb package (Closes: #571247)

52 * Add Heimdal function com_right_r() to libcom_err (Closes: #558910)
53 * Allow e2fsck to run even if the physical device has more than 2**32 blocks
54 * Debugfs's "logdump -b <blk>" now properly shows the allocation status
55 of the block <blk>. (Closes: #564084)
56 * Make e2fsck's "the filesystem is mounted" message is now more scary
57 to hopefully dissuade users from thinking, "surely that message
58 doesn't apply to *me*" :-(
59 * e2fsck -n will now always open the file system read-only. We now
60 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual
61 exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are
62 smarter than they really are. So "-n -c", "-n -l", "-n -L", and
63 "-n -D" are no longer supported.
64 * If the partition is badly aligned, have mke2fs just print a warning
65 message and continue. Previously mke2fs would ask to confirm, and
66 this broke distro installation scripts.
67 * Fix a bug in libext2fs caused the creation of very large journals
68 for ext4 to be _very_ slow.
69 * E2fsck now understands the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag which will be used in
70 2.6.34 kernels to make e2fsck not complain about blocks deliberately
71 fallocated() beyond an inode's i_size.
72 * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause e2fsck -D to corrupt
73 non-indexed directories. (Closes: #572453)

87 default/broken_system_clock for system with broken CMOS hardware
88 clocks. (Closes: #559776)
89 * Fix flex_bg inode table placement algorithm used by mke2fs for
90 certain specific file system sizes

98 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
99 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
100 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
101 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
102 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
103 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
104 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
105 (from the Translation Project)
106 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
107 non-indexed directories.
108 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.
109 * Enhance libext2fs so it works around bug in Linux version 2.6.19
110 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
112 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
113 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
114 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
115 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
116 * Update and clarify various man pages.
117 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
118 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
119 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
120 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
121 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
122 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
123 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
124 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
125 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
126 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
128 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
129 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
130 the block device is misaligned
131 * Fix a file descriptor leak in debugfs when sourcing a command file
132 * Fix a file descriptor leak in fsck
133 * Round up the bitmap size to prevent spurious segmentation faults on
135 * Fix resize2fs to correctly calculate the minimum size needed, when
136 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
137 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
138 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
139 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
140 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
141 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
142 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
143 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.
144 Both work, but the latter is what is documented in the man page.

151 * New upstream release
152 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
153 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
154 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
155 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
156 table needs to be moved.
157 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
158 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
159 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
160 space in the entire filesystem.
161 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
162 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
163 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
164 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
165 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
167 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
168 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
169 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
170 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
171 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
172 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
173 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
174 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
176 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
177 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
178 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

220 * Fix memory leaks in e2fsprogs, including a very large memory leak
221 which can cause e2fsck to run out of memory when checking very large
222 filesystems using extents.
223 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
224 uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
225 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.
226 * The logsave program will now filter out the ^A and ^B characters when
227 writing to the console.
228 * Update/clarify man pages (Closes: #531385, #523063)
229 * Fix filefrag progam so it correctly checks for errors from the

232 * Fix libext2fs to properly initialize i_extra_size when creating the
233 journal and resize inodes.
234 * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the
235 superblock if the journal is moved; this avoids an unnecessary full
236 fsck after resizing the filesystem.
237 * Use the same encoding as the kernel for rec_len == 64k in 64k block

362 doesn't cause e2fsck to abort.
363 * E2fsck now distinguishes between fragmented directories and
364 fragmented files in verbose mode statistics and in the fragcheck
366 * Avoid double-counting non-contiguous extent-based inodes in the
367 verbose mode statistics.
368 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
369 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split
371 * E2fsck was previously not handling the case of a corrupted interior
372 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will
373 handle this and related failures robustly.
374 * E2fsck problem descriptions involving the journal are no longer

377 * Fix a long-standing bug in e2fsck which would cause it to crash when
378 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.
379 * Fix a regression in debugfs's logdump command so it works for
380 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
381 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
382 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
383 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
384 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
385 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

393 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.

395 have the flex_bg feature enabled, since the code currently assumes
396 the each block group's portion inode table is located in its own

399 for RAID storage devices.

401 specified for the new filesystem.
402 * Mke2fs will now treat devices with exactly 16TB as if they have 16TB
403 minus one block, since many users expect ext4 to support 16TB
404 devices, and the true maximum size is 16TB-1.

789 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
790 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
791 even on ext3 filesystems.

825 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
826 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
827 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
828 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
829 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
830 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
831 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
832 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
833 part of the e2fsprogs package).
834 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
835 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
836 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the

2186 are only visited when previously unsupported features are used, so
2187 they add virtually no risk. Support for raw image files will be of
