10 e2fsprogs (1.42.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
12 * New upstream version
13 * Fix various e2fsck bugs when trying to repair bigalloc file systems.
14 * E2fsck can now repair a file system with an overly large
15 s_first_meta_bg field, which had previously caused all e2fsprogs
16 programs to crash when trying to open such a file system.
17 * Fix e2fsck so that it can correctly fix a number of rare file system
18 corruptions that were discovered when using a file system fuzzer.
19 * Fix e2fsck so it does not try to write back block group descriptors
20 if they have not been modified.
21 * The mke2fs program will now place metadata blocks in the last
22 flex_bg so they are contiguous. This reduces free space
23 fragmentation in a freshly created file system, as well as allowing
24 mke2fs commands which request extremely large flex_bg size to succeed.
25 * Mke2fs now creates hugefiles more efficiently (with fewer extent
27 * Fix a 32/64-bit overflow bug that could cause resize2fs to loop
29 * Reduce the memory consumption of resize2fs for very large file
31 * Fix a bug that could cause resize2fs to create a corrupted file
32 system when shrinking a very large file system (typically > 16TB)
33 that had been previously grown using resize2fs. (Closes: #756922)
34 * Fix tune2fs updating UUID's when manipulating file systems with
35 external journals (both the file system and journal UUID).
36 * Fix tune2fs so it can remove an external journal for file systems
38 * Add a new debugfs command, "inode_dump", which prints the inode in
40 * The debugfs command "set_inode_field" will now automatically
41 allocate blocks for indirect blocks and extent tree blocks.
42 * Fix debugfs's "set_inode_field" so can properly handle
43 "block[IND|DIND|TIND]".
44 * The debugfs "rdump" command will now take multiple source arguments.
45 * Fix debugfs's argument parsing for the freefrag command.
46 * Fixed a double close(2) bug in "rdump" and "rdump -p".
47 * Fix filefrag to properly handle using the FIBMAP ioctl (with -B).
48 * e4defrag will now defrag backwards-allocated files
49 * Clarified messages that were confusing users in debugfs, e2fsck,
50 mke2fs, and resize2fs (Closes: #758029, #757543, #757544)
51 * Dumpe2fs will now complain if extra arguments are given to it.

73 * mke2fs can now create hugefiles which are aligned to the beginning
74 of the disk (instead of relative to the beginning of the partition),
75 controlled via a mke2fs.conf configuration parameter.
76 * Fix a bug which caused e2fsck to abort a journal replay on a file
77 system with bigalloc enabled. (Closes: #744953)
78 * Fix mke2fs so it more correctly handles large flex_bg counts
79 * Mke2fs will check the kernel version number and not just the sysfs
80 feature flag to determine whether it is safe to enable lazy
81 inode table initialization, so it won't get faked out if the ext4 is
82 compiled as a mdoule which hasn't happened to be loaded yet.
83 * E2fsck will now automatically fix a last mount time or last write time
84 which is in the future in preen mode.
85 * Mke2fs will now check the file system revision number requested by the
86 command line, and reject it if it is too large.
87 * If filefrag runs into an error, it will continue processing the rest
88 of the files specified on thec ommand line, but then exit with an
90 * Filefrag now prints some additional new flags (such as
91 FIEMAP_EXTENT_ENCODED), and print unknown flags as hex values.
92 * Fixed support in filefrag for files with > 2**32 blocks on 32-bit
94 * Fixed a file descriptor leak in debugfs when copying files.
95 * Add Esparanto and Ukrainian translations, and update Czech, Dutch,
96 French, German, Italian, Polish, Sweedish, and Vietnamese translations.

122 * The mke2fs program will now ask for confirmation before wiping out a
123 pre-existing file system, partition label, or physical volume
124 * Fix e2fsck so that it properly handles an inconsistent quota inode.
125 Previously the quota inode could be completely corrupted, and
126 missing quota records could be not noticed
127 * Fix mke2fs so if packed metadata blocks are enabled that the block
128 group checksum are set correctly
129 * Debugfs has new commands to allow the quota inode to be queried directly
130 * Tune2fs will allow removal of dirty journal with two "-f" options
132 * Fixed some off-line resize2fs bugs when relocating metadata blocks
133 when growing or shrinking bigalloc file systems
134 * Fixed resize2fs's calculation of the minimum required file system
135 size. This allows resize2fs -M to shrink the file system more
137 * Fixed resize2fs to properly handle shrinking a very large and empty
138 file system to a very very small size
139 * Fixed e4defrag to work with 64-bit and bigalloc file systems
140 * Fixed e2fsck to not issue a large number of very scary (but
141 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
142 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
143 since January 1, 1970.
144 * E2fsck will now check the whole file system if file system problems
145 are detected durings its initial "pass 0" sanity check
146 * Filefrag now prints the "shared extent" flag which is used by some
147 file systems such as btrfs
148 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
149 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was
150 determined automatically. It will now also do the right thing when
151 the user explicitly specifies the file system size.

294 the call to ext2fs_open2() fails.
295 * Fixed e2fsck if its logging function is enabled in e2fsck.conf, and
296 the resulting file name for the log file is longer than 100 bytes,
297 that it properly handles this situation instead of crashing.
298 * E2fsck will now report the amount of memory that it attempted to
299 allocate when a memory allocation request fails, to make it easier to
300 track down the problem.
301 * Fixed a bug in resize2fs which could cause severe file system
302 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
303 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks

305 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
306 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
307 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
308 resizing very large file systems.

479 * Speed up resize2fs for large file systems (Closes: #663237)
480 * Be less strict about the EXT4_EOFBLOCKS_FL flag (which will
481 eventually be going away in the ext4 file system format)
482 * Teach mke2fs to use direct I/O if the -D option is given
483 * Print errors returned by ext2fs_open2() and ext2fs_check_desc() so

487 problems that were found and fixed directly.
488 * E2fsck can now limit the number of messages issued and printed on

491 cause them to use much less memory for large file systems.
492 * E2fsck will now check for zero-length extents, since older kernels will
493 OOPS if they comes across one
494 * Fix e2fsck's discard behaviour so it does not discard too many
495 blocks, and it will not use discard if the device advertises
496 that discard does not persistently zero data. Also, if e2fsck is
497 run in read-only mode, do not try to discard data.

738 direct I/O is being used. The badblocks command now also

903 * Add libss support for libreadline.so.6
904 * Fix e2fsck's check for extent-mapped directory with an incorrect file type
905 * Add new e2fsck.conf configuration option:
906 default/broken_system_clock for system with broken CMOS hardware
907 clocks. (Closes: #559776)
908 * Fix flex_bg inode table placement algorithm used by mke2fs for
909 certain specific file system sizes
910 * Add source lintian overrids for weak-library-dev-dependency
911 * Fix FTBFS problem caused by texi2html changing (again) its output
912 location. (Closes: #552934)
913 * Make e2fsck to avoid rehashing directories which can fit in a
914 single directory block.
915 * Fix how e2fsck fixes sparse directories which are extent-mapped.
916 * Fix some big-endian bugs in e2fsck and libext2fs
917 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
918 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
919 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
920 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
921 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
922 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
923 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
924 (from the Translation Project)
925 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
926 non-indexed directories.
927 * Add support for calling BLKDISCARD to mke2fs.
928 * Enhance libext2fs so it works around bug in Linux version 2.6.19
929 and earlier where the /proc/swaps file was missing the header on
931 * Fix resize2fs so it works correctly on file systems with external journals
932 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
933 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.
934 * Add a pre-depends for util-linux-ng (Closes: #551795)
935 * Update and clarify various man pages.
936 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
937 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
938 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
939 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
940 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
941 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
942 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
943 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
944 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
945 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
947 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
948 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
949 the block device is misaligned

951 * Fix a file descriptor leak in fsck
952 * Round up the bitmap size to prevent spurious segmentation faults on
954 * Fix resize2fs to correctly calculate the minimum size needed, when
955 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
956 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
957 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
958 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
959 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
960 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
961 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
962 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.
963 Both work, but the latter is what is documented in the man page.

970 * New upstream release
971 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
972 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
973 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
974 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
975 table needs to be moved.
976 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
977 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
978 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
979 space in the entire filesystem.
980 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
981 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
982 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
983 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
984 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
986 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
987 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
988 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
989 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
990 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
991 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
992 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
993 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Sweedish translation from the
995 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
996 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
997 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

1040 which can cause e2fsck to run out of memory when checking very large
1041 filesystems using extents.
1042 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
1043 uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
1044 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

1052 journal and resize inodes.
1053 * Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the

1055 fsck after resizing the filesystem.
1056 * Use the same encoding as the kernel for rec_len == 64k in 64k block

1095 * Add support to e2fsck for handling I/O errors while replaying the
1097 * Fix a bug in e2fsck which could cause it to crash if an inode has a

1176 information on filesystems with an external journal

1181 doesn't cause e2fsck to abort.
1182 * E2fsck now distinguishes between fragmented directories and
1183 fragmented files in verbose mode statistics and in the fragcheck
1185 * Avoid double-counting non-contiguous extent-based inodes in the
1186 verbose mode statistics.
1187 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
1188 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split
1190 * E2fsck was previously not handling the case of a corrupted interior
1191 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will
1192 handle this and related failures robustly.

1194 referred to as "ext3" problems, since ext4 filesystems also have
1196 * Fix a long-standing bug in e2fsck which would cause it to crash when
1197 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.
1198 * Fix a regression in debugfs's logdump command so it works for
1199 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
1200 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
1201 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
1202 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
1203 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
1204 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,
1205 which caused resize2fs -M to fail. Finally, when blocks are moved,
1206 make sure the uninitialized flag in extents is preserved.

1212 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.
1213 * tune2fs will not allow changing the inode size for filesystems that
1214 have the flex_bg feature enabled, since the code currently assumes
1215 the each block group's portion inode table is located in its own

1218 for RAID storage devices.

1220 specified for the new filesystem.
1221 * Mke2fs will now treat devices with exactly 16TB as if they have 16TB
1222 minus one block, since many users expect ext4 to support 16TB

1608 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
1609 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
1610 even on ext3 filesystems.

1644 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
1645 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
1646 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
1647 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
1648 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
1649 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
1650 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
1651 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
1652 part of the e2fsprogs package).

1654 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
1655 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
1656 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).

2299 user to manually set a specific inode field more conveniently, as
2300 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
2301 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
2302 can set most superblock fields, including the date/time fields and
2303 some of the more newsly added superblock fields.
