949 * Don't try to build lib/ext2fs/tst_ext2fs unless running "make
950 check"; this fixes a MIPS FTBFS problem because mips has a special

961 * mke2fs can now create hugefiles which are aligned to the beginning
962 of the disk (instead of relative to the beginning of the partition),
963 controlled via a mke2fs.conf configuration parameter.
964 * Fix a bug which caused e2fsck to abort a journal replay on a file
965 system with bigalloc enabled. (Closes: #744953)
966 * Fix mke2fs so it more correctly handles large flex_bg counts
967 * Mke2fs will check the kernel version number and not just the sysfs
968 feature flag to determine whether it is safe to enable lazy
969 inode table initialization, so it won't get faked out if the ext4 is
970 compiled as a module which hasn't happened to be loaded yet.
971 * E2fsck will now automatically fix a last mount time or last write time
972 which is in the future in preen mode.
973 * Mke2fs will now check the file system revision number requested by the
974 command line, and reject it if it is too large.
975 * If filefrag runs into an error, it will continue processing the rest
976 of the files specified on the command line, but then exit with an

979 FIEMAP_EXTENT_ENCODED), and print unknown flags as hex values.
980 * Fixed support in filefrag for files with > 2**32 blocks on 32-bit
982 * Fixed a file descriptor leak in debugfs when copying files.

1006 * New upstream version
1007 * The mke2fs program no longer requires a force (-F) option when
1008 when creating a file system in a regular file, since this is a very
1009 common use case when managing virtual machine images
1010 * The mke2fs program will now ask for confirmation before wiping out a
1011 pre-existing file system, partition label, or physical volume
1012 * Fix e2fsck so that it properly handles an inconsistent quota inode.
1013 Previously the quota inode could be completely corrupted, and
1014 missing quota records could be not noticed
1015 * Fix mke2fs so if packed metadata blocks are enabled that the block
1016 group checksum are set correctly
1017 * Debugfs has new commands to allow the quota inode to be queried directly
1018 * Tune2fs will allow removal of dirty journal with two "-f" options
1020 * Fixed some off-line resize2fs bugs when relocating metadata blocks
1021 when growing or shrinking bigalloc file systems
1022 * Fixed resize2fs's calculation of the minimum required file system
1023 size. This allows resize2fs -M to shrink the file system more
1025 * Fixed resize2fs to properly handle shrinking a very large and empty
1026 file system to a very very small size
1027 * Fixed e4defrag to work with 64-bit and bigalloc file systems
1028 * Fixed e2fsck to not issue a large number of very scary (but
1029 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
1030 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
1031 since January 1, 1970.
1032 * E2fsck will now check the whole file system if file system problems
1033 are detected during its initial "pass 0" sanity check
1034 * Filefrag now prints the "shared extent" flag which is used by some
1035 file systems such as btrfs
1036 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
1037 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was
1038 determined automatically. It will now also do the right thing when
1039 the user explicitly specifies the file system size.
1040 * The message printed by logsave is now much less scary (Closes: #468821)
1041 * Fix spelling typo in the package descriptions

1070 * Fix printf type format mismatch in e2image
1071 * Improved debugfs's error reporting when parsing block numbers
1072 * Use consistent configure options across the multiple e2fsprogs

1106 * Debugfs can now support a command line which is up to 8k long
1107 * E2image will refuse to create a raw or qcomw image using a mounted
1108 file system unless the -f option is given.
1109 * E2image has been made more useful for efficiently copying file
1110 systems using the -ra options. New options to help with this use
1111 case that were added: -o, -O, -p, and -c.
1112 * Fixed a regression introduced in 1.42.8 which would cause e2fsck to
1113 erroneously report uninitialized extents past i_size to be invalid.
1114 * Fixed cases where resize2fs could corrupt a file system, especially
1115 when shrinking a file system. (Closes: #660793)

1137 external journal. (Closes: #707030)
1138 * Fix off-line resizing of file systems with flex_bg && !resize_inode
1140 * Change mke2fs so that it does not set the root directory to the real
1141 uid/gid of the mke2fs process. Add the extended option root_owner to
1142 override this behavior.
1143 * If an invalid journal size is given to mke2fs, it will now complain
1145 * Fix resize2fs when shrinking file systems to make sure that bitmap
1146 blocks aren't left outside the bounds of the shrunken file system.
1147 This could happen with flex_bg file systems that were grown using
1148 the old online resizing algorithm.

1150 invalid extents at the end of the extent tree leaf block.
1151 * E2fsck will now longer complain about zero length extended attribute values.
1152 * Fix a regression introduced in e2fsprogs v1.42 which caused e2image -s

1179 * Fixed e2fsck so it detects and fixes inconsistencies in the interior
1180 nodes of an inode's extent tree
1181 * Fixed a potential memory corruption failure in e2fsck's error path if
1182 the call to ext2fs_open2() fails.
1183 * Fixed e2fsck if its logging function is enabled in e2fsck.conf, and
1184 the resulting file name for the log file is longer than 100 bytes,
1185 that it properly handles this situation instead of crashing.
1186 * E2fsck will now report the amount of memory that it attempted to
1187 allocate when a memory allocation request fails, to make it easier to
1188 track down the problem.
1189 * Fixed a bug in resize2fs which could cause severe file system
1190 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
1191 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks
1192 * Fixed resize2fs to be able to handle off-line resizes of file
1193 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
1194 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
1195 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
1196 resizing very large file systems.
1197 * Fixed 32-bit overflow bugs which could cause resize2fs to fail and
1198 possibly corrupt the file system while resizing 64-bit file systems.
1199 * Fixed a big which could cause resize2fs to corrupt bigalloc file systems.
1200 * Fix a crash while mke2fs is parsing "-E resize=NNN" with the 64bit
1201 file system feature enabled
1202 * Added better error checking to mke2fs to check for invalid
1203 parameters when creating bigalloc file system.

1211 on file systems with a block size greater than 8k.
1212 * Fixed mke2fs's handling of the mmp_update_interval option

1625 * The badblocks program now correctly recovers from I/O errors when
1626 direct I/O is being used. The badblocks command now also
1627 supports a -B option which forces the use of buffered I/O, and
1628 the -v option will provide a more detailed breakdown of read,

1801 * Make e2fsck to avoid rehashing directories which can fit in a
1802 single directory block.
1803 * Fix how e2fsck fixes sparse directories which are extent-mapped.
1804 * Fix some big-endian bugs in e2fsck and libext2fs
1805 * Teach e2fsck to detect and fix sparse extent-mapped directories
1806 * Fix filefrag from core dumping on file systems with 8k block sizes
1807 * E2fsck was depending on i_size to be correct to detect and fix
1808 certain directory problems before actually fixing the
1809 directory's i_size. This caused certain rare corruptions to
1810 require two runs of e2fsck to address.
1811 * Update Czech, Indonesian, Polish and Vietnamese translations
1812 (from the Translation Project)
1813 * Fix e2fsck to find and correct duplicate directory entries in
1814 non-indexed directories.

1820 * Fix libss so that it does not seg fault when using a readline
1821 library which does not supply a readline_shutdown() function.

1823 * Update and clarify various man pages.
1824 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
1825 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
1826 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
1827 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
1828 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
1829 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
1830 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
1831 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
1832 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
1833 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of
1835 * Teach mke2fs to get device topology information from blkid and use
1836 it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes and warn if
1837 the block device is misaligned

1843 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
1844 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
1845 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packages have changelogs
1846 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
1847 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
1848 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
1849 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
1850 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.
1851 Both work, but the latter is what is documented in the man page.

1860 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
1861 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
1862 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
1863 table needs to be moved.
1864 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
1865 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
1866 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
1867 space in the entire filesystem.
1868 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
1869 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
1870 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
1871 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
1872 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
1874 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitialized block groups.
1875 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
1876 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
1877 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
1878 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
1879 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
1880 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
1881 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Swedish translation from the
1882 Translation Project.
1883 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
1884 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
1885 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

1931 uninitialized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
1932 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

2079 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will

2085 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.

2087 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
2088 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
2089 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
2090 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
2091 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
2092 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

2496 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
2497 future compatibility with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
2498 even on ext3 filesystems.

2529 * Make sure that programs like tune2fs, when modifying a mounted
2530 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
2531 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
2532 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
2533 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
2534 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
2535 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
2536 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
2537 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
2538 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
2539 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
2540 part of the e2fsprogs package).
2541 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
2542 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
2543 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
2544 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).

3187 user to manually set a specific inode field more conveniently, as
3188 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
3189 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
3190 can set most superblock fields, including the date/time fields and
3191 some of the more newly added superblock fields.
