19 system with bigalloc enabled. (Closes: #744953)
20 * Fix mke2fs so it more correctly handles large flex_bg counts
21 * Mke2fs will check the kernel version number and not just the sysfs

77 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
78 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
79 since January 1, 1970.

83 file systems such as btrfs
84 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
85 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was

238 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
239 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks

241 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
242 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
243 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when

900 * New upstream release
901 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
902 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
903 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
904 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
905 table needs to be moved.
906 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
907 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
908 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
909 space in the entire filesystem.
910 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
911 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
912 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
913 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
914 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
916 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
917 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
918 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
919 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
920 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
921 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
922 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
923 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
925 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
926 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
927 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

972 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
973 uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
974 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

982 journal and resize inodes.
983 * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the

985 fsck after resizing the filesystem.
986 * Use the same encoding as the kernel for rec_len == 64k in 64k block

1111 doesn't cause e2fsck to abort.

1113 fragmented files in verbose mode statistics and in the fragcheck
1115 * Avoid double-counting non-contiguous extent-based inodes in the
1116 verbose mode statistics.
1117 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
1118 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split
1120 * E2fsck was previously not handling the case of a corrupted interior
1121 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will
1122 handle this and related failures robustly.
1123 * E2fsck problem descriptions involving the journal are no longer
1124 referred to as "ext3" problems, since ext4 filesystems also have
1126 * Fix a long-standing bug in e2fsck which would cause it to crash when
1127 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.
1128 * Fix a regression in debugfs's logdump command so it works for
1129 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
1130 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
1131 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
1132 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
1133 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
1134 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,
1135 which caused resize2fs -M to fail. Finally, when blocks are moved,
1136 make sure the uninitialized flag in extents is preserved.

1142 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.
1143 * tune2fs will not allow changing the inode size for filesystems that
1144 have the flex_bg feature enabled, since the code currently assumes
1145 the each block group's portion inode table is located in its own
1147 * Fix tune2fs -I so it won't corrupt ext3/ext4 filesystem configured
1148 for RAID storage devices.

1150 specified for the new filesystem.

1536 * New upstream release.
1537 * Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
1538 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
1539 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
1540 even on ext3 filesystems.

1542 that it is ok to use the filesystem on in-development kernel
1543 code (i.e., ext4dev)

1571 * Make sure that programs like tune2fs, when modifying a mounted
1572 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
1573 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
1574 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
1575 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
1576 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
1577 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
1578 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
1579 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
1580 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
1581 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
1582 part of the e2fsprogs package).
1583 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
1584 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
1585 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
1586 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).
1587 * Enhance the blkid program to pretty-print control and meta
1588 characters to avoid garbage filesystem labels from screwing up the

2209 999,999,999 in its progress display.
2210 * tune2fs will not allow the user from setting a ridiculous number of
2211 reserved blocks which would cause e2fsck to assume the superblock
2212 was corrupt. E2fsck's standards for what is a ridiculous number
2213 of reserved blocks has also been relaxed to 50% of the blocks in
2215 * The blkid library will return vfat in preference to msdos, and ext3 in

2227 cache conherency problem.
2228 * Debugfs now supports a new command, set_inode_field, which allows a
2229 user to manually set a specific inode field more conveniently, as
2230 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
2231 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
2232 can set most superblock fields, including the date/time fields and
2233 some of the more newsly added superblock fields.
2234 * E2fsprogs programs now accept an offset to be passed to the file
2235 specifiers, via the syntax: "/tmp/test.img?offset=1024"
2236 * E2fsprogs will now accept blocksizes up to 65536; kernel support on
2237 the x86 doesn't exist, but it is useful on other architectures.
2238 * Fix bug in debugfs where kill_file would lead to errors when deleting
2239 devices and symlinks. (Sourceforge Bugs #954741 and #957244)
