16 correctly if the last hole in the file is an exact multiple of a
18 * Fixed a bug with resize2fs where for 1k and 2k file systems, the
19 minimum file size used for resize2fs -M could be a block too small.

444 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packags have changelogs
445 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
446 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
447 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser

457 * New upstream release
458 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
459 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
460 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
461 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
462 table needs to be moved.
463 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
464 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
465 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
466 space in the entire filesystem.
467 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
468 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
469 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
470 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
471 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
473 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitalized block groups.
474 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
475 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
476 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
477 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
478 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
479 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.

482 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
483 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
484 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

670 fragmented files in verbose mode statistics and in the fragcheck

673 verbose mode statistics.
674 * E2fsck now leaves slack space when repacking directories so that a
675 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split

678 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will
679 handle this and related failures robustly.

681 referred to as "ext3" problems, since ext4 filesystems also have
683 * Fix a long-standing bug in e2fsck which would cause it to crash when
684 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.
685 * Fix a regression in debugfs's logdump command so it works for
686 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
687 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
688 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
689 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
690 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
691 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

699 devices currently used by user-level software suspend.

705 for RAID storage devices.

707 specified for the new filesystem.

925 * New options to badblocks allow it to limit how quickly it reads
926 from disk (for background scrubbing) and abort after a finding
927 giving a number of errors.
928 * Add support for ext4 filesystem features. (Closes: #388452, #425477)
929 * Tune2fs can migrate a filesystem from using 128 byte inodes to
930 larger inode sizes so the user can take full advantage of ext4)
931 * E2fsck and mke2fs can optionally record an undo log which can be
932 replayed by the e2undo program.

939 pages for more details.
940 * Resize2fs will now print the minimum needed filesystem size if given
941 the -P option, and will resize the filesystem to the smallest possible
942 size if given the -M option.
943 * E2fsck now performs more extensive and careful checks of extended
944 attributes stored in the inode.
945 * Mke2fs will always make sure that lost+found always has at least 2
946 blocks, even for filesystems with very large blocksizes (i.e., 64kb).

1091 e2fsprogs (1.40.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
1093 * New upstream release.
1094 * Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
1095 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
1096 future compatibity with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
1097 even on ext3 filesystems.
1098 * Teach mke2fs and tune2fs to set a "test_fs" flag, which indicates
1099 that it is ok to use the filesystem on in-development kernel
1100 code (i.e., ext4dev)
1101 * E2fsck now optimizes non-htree directories by sorting them by inode

1104 * Fix blkid's ntfs UUID handling so it is compatible with vol_id

1113 certain "safe" feature set changes behind the user's back.

1128 * Make sure that programs like tune2fs, when modifying a mounted
1129 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
1130 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
1131 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
1132 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
1133 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
1134 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
1135 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
1136 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
1137 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
1138 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
1139 part of the e2fsprogs package).
1140 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
1141 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
1142 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
1143 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).
1144 * Enhance the blkid program to pretty-print control and meta
1145 characters to avoid garbage filesystem labels from screwing up the
1147 * Fix potential integer overflows passed to malloc() in resize2fs
1148 * Update Dutch, Polish, and Vietnamese translations from the
1149 Translation Project. Remove the Rwandan translation upon advice
1150 of the Translation Project.
1151 * Fix cross-compilation support for non-Linux architectures

1157 error code is passed to it.

1764 * Add support for online resizing via the resize inode.
1765 * Badblocks will now correctly display block numbers greater than
1766 999,999,999 in its progress display.
1767 * tune2fs will not allow the user from setting a ridiculous number of
1768 reserved blocks which would cause e2fsck to assume the superblock
1769 was corrupt. E2fsck's standards for what is a ridiculous number
1770 of reserved blocks has also been relaxed to 50% of the blocks in
1772 * The blkid library will return vfat in preference to msdos, and ext3 in
1773 preference to ext2 (if the journalling flag is set) so that mount
1774 will do the right thing. (Closes: #287455)
1775 * The fsck program will now accept an optional filedescriptor argument
1777 * Mke2fs will now use the -E option for extended options; the old -R
1778 (raid options) option is still accepted for backwards compatibility.
1779 * Fix a double-free problem in resize2fs. (Red Hat Bugzilla #132707)
1780 * Mke2fs will now accept a size in megabytes or gigabytes (via "32m" or
1781 "4g" on the command line) if the user finds this more convenient
1782 than specifying a block count.
1783 * Fix an obscure, hard-to find bug in "e2fsck -S" caused by an inode
1784 cache conherency problem.
1785 * Debugfs now supports a new command, set_inode_field, which allows a
1786 user to manually set a specific inode field more conveniently, as
1787 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
1788 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
1789 can set most superblock fields, including the date/time fields and
1790 some of the more newsly added superblock fields.
1791 * E2fsprogs programs now accept an offset to be passed to the file
1792 specifiers, via the syntax: "/tmp/test.img?offset=1024"
1793 * E2fsprogs will now accept blocksizes up to 65536; kernel support on
1794 the x86 doesn't exist, but it is useful on other architectures.
1795 * Fix bug in debugfs where kill_file would lead to errors when deleting
1796 devices and symlinks. (Sourceforge Bugs #954741 and #957244)
1797 * Fix bug in the blkid library when detecting the ocfs1 filesystem
