1 1998-08-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
3 * unix.c (check_if_skip): Move the "not cleanly mounted" check
4 ahead of the maximal mount and too long since checked tests.
5 (reserve_stdio_fds): Make sure 0,1,2 file descriptors are
6 open, so that we don't open the filesystem using the same
7 file descriptor as stdout or stderr.
9 1998-08-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
11 * pass2.c (e2fsck_pass2): Fix the progress accounting so that we
14 * pass3.c (e2fsck_pass3): Change progress accounting to be
15 consistent with the other e2fsck passes.
17 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_run): At the end of each pass, call the
18 progress function with the pass number set to zero.
20 * unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): If the pass number is zero,
21 ignore the call, since that indicates that we just want to
22 deallocate any progress structures.
24 1998-07-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
26 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.12
28 1998-07-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
30 * unix.c (main): Fix typo in checking the incompat feature set; it
31 should be checked against EXT2_LIB_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_SUPP.
33 1998-07-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
35 * badblocks.c (test_disk): Don't clear the existing bad blocks
36 list when using e2fsck -c, since it may cause blocks with
37 marginal errors to be dropped from the bad blocks list.
39 Mon Jul 6 10:32:11 1998 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
41 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): Use ext2fs_sb structure for
42 compatibility with older kernels.
44 1998-06-25 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
46 * unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): Remove unused variables.
48 1998-06-10 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
50 * pass1.c, problem.h: Change blkcnt_t to be e2_blkcnt_t to avoid
51 collision with LFS API.
53 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): Fix bug so that ext2_max_sizes is
55 (e2fsck_pass1): Don't allow the the boot loader inode to
56 be a directory (clear the inode mode field if so).
58 1998-05-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
60 * unix.c (PRS): Added new option -C, which causes e2fsck to print
61 progress updates so that callers can keep track of the
62 completion progress of e2fsck. Designed for use by
63 progress, except for -C 0, which prints a spinning report
64 which may be useful for some users.
66 * pass5.c (e2fsck_pass5): Use a finer-grained progress reporting
67 scheme (useful for larger filesystems).
69 * e2fsck.h: Add progress_fd and progress_pos, for use by the Unix
70 progress reporting functions.
72 1998-04-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
74 * pass1.c (process_inode_cmp): Use EXT2_QSORT_TYPE to define the
75 appropriate return type for comparison functions for qsort.
77 * e2fsck.h: Add #ifdef protection for unistd.h
79 * super.c: Remove header files already included by e2fsck.h
81 1998-04-26 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
83 * dirinfo.c (e2fsck_add_dir_info): Update function to pass the old
84 size of the memory to be resized to ext2fs_resize_mem().
86 1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
88 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
89 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
90 account. Remove cat8dir from the installdirs target,
91 since modern man package don't necessarily put the cat
92 directory in /usr/man/cat?.
94 1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
96 * super.c, e2fsck.h: Always declare e2fsck_get_device_size() as an
97 extern in e2fsck.h to prevent -Wall warnings.
99 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Remove unused variable 'j'.
101 1998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
103 * super.c (check_super_block): Fix broken superblock sanity check
104 when calculating blocks_per_group if s_log_frag_size !=
105 s_log_block_size. Since we don't support fragments, this
106 isn't a bug deal, but it's good to get it fixed.
108 1998-03-23 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
110 * unix.c: Fix bug in check of feature set, to make sure we can
111 really fix this filesystem.
113 * problem.h: Make blkcount type to be of type blkcnt_t. Make the
114 num field be a 64 bit type. Add the problem code
115 PR_1_FEATURE_LARGE_FILES
117 * problem.c: Add table entry for the problem code
118 PR_1_FEATURE_LARGE_FILES.
120 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): A non-zero i_dir_acl field is only
121 a problem for directory inodes. (Since it is also
122 i_size_high now.) If there are no large_files, then
123 clear the LARGE_FLAG feature flag. If there are
124 large_files, but the LARGE_FLAG feature flag is not set,
125 complain and offer to fix it.
126 (check_blocks): Add support to deal with non-directory
127 inodes that have i_size_high set (i.e., large_files).
128 Don't give an error if a directory has preallocated
129 blocks, to support the DIR_PREALLOC feature.
130 (process_block, process_bad_block): The blockcnt variable
131 is a type of blkcnt_t, for conversion to the new
134 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): A non-zero i_dir_acl field is only
135 a problem for directory inodes. (Since it is also
138 * message.c (expand_inode_expression): Print a 64-bits of the
139 inode size for non-directory inodes. (Directory inodes
140 can only use a 32-bit directory acl size, since
141 i_size_high is shared with i_dir_acl.) Add sanity check
142 so that trying to print out the directory acl on a
143 non-directory inode will print zero.
144 (expand_percent_expression): %B and %N, which print
145 pctx->blkcount and pctx->num, can now be 64 bit
146 variables. Print them using the "%lld" format if
147 EXT2_NO_64_TYPE is not defined.
149 * e2fsck.h: Add the large_flagsfield to the e2fsck context.
151 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_reset_context): Clear the large_flags
154 Sun Mar 8 23:08:08 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
156 * pass3.c (fix_dotdot_proc):
157 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot, check_name, check_dir_block):
158 * message.c (expand_dirent_expression): Mask off the high eight
159 bits of the directory entry's name_len field, so that it
160 can be used for other purposes.
162 Fri Feb 27 00:01:39 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
164 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_run): Since E2F_FLAG_SIGNAL_MASK doesn't
165 include EXT2_FLAG_RESTART anymore, we need to adjust this
166 routine so that it *does* return in the case of it seeing
169 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): ext2_get_next_inode() may call the group
170 done callback function, which may set context abort
171 flags. So we need to test the context abort flags after
172 we call ext2_get_next_inode().
173 (process_inodes): If we abort due out of process_inodes,
174 do a clean exit by breaking out of the for loop instead of
177 * e2fsck.h (E2F_FLAG_SIGNAL_MASK): EXT2_FLAG_RESTART shouldn't be
178 considered a SIGNAL mask (i.e., requiring an immediate
179 abort of processing to restart). FLAG_RESTART just means
180 that we want to restart once pass 1 is complete.
182 Tue Feb 24 15:19:40 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
184 * Change the progress function to return an integer; if returns 1,
185 then the progress function is expected to have set the
186 e2fsck context flag signalling a user abort, and the
187 caller should also initiate a user abort.
189 Tue Feb 17 19:03:44 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
191 * pass5.c (check_block_bitmaps, check_inode_bitmaps): Don't call
192 end_problem_latch() unless there was actually a problem
193 latched. Simplifies semantics of the latch processing.
195 Mon Feb 16 17:31:44 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
197 * e2fsck.h: Add new field, priv_data to the e2fsck context
198 structure. It should be used by callers of the e2fsck
199 functions only, and not by anything in e2fsck itself.
201 Mon Feb 7 17:31:04 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
203 * super.c: Instead of call ext2fs_get_device_size(), define and call
204 e2fsck_get_device_size(). (This function may be stubbed
205 out in special versions of e2fsck.)
207 * pass3.c, pass4.c: Remove extra calls to the progress function
210 * mke2fs.8.in: Update man page to note that the format of the bad
211 block file is the same as the one generated by badblocks.
213 Sun Feb 1 07:57:14 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
215 * dirinfo.c, e2fsck.c: Don't include com_err.h; it isn't needed.
217 * e2fsck.h: Include <time.h> since it is needed
219 * super.c: If EXT2_SKIP_UUID is defined, then skip the UUID
222 Tue Jan 20 15:37:01 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
224 * unix.c (main): In the case where the filesystem revision is too
225 high, print the message about the superblock possibly
228 * e2fsck.8.in: Add expanded comments about how the -b option
231 Sat Jan 17 13:02:16 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
233 * e2fsck.h: If EXT2_FLAT_INCLUDES is defined, then assume all of
234 the ext2-specific header files are in a flat directory.
236 * dirinfo.c, ehandler.c, pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass5.c,
237 super.c, swapfs.c, unix.c: Explicitly cast all assignments
238 from void * to be compatible with C++.
240 Tue Jan 6 11:30:24 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
242 * unix.c (sync_disk): Remove sync_disk and calls to that function,
243 since ext2fs_close() now takes care of this.
245 Mon Dec 29 14:45:42 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
247 * pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, swapfs, badblocks.c,
248 ehandler.c, unix.c: Change use of private to be priv_data,
249 to avoid C++ reserved name clash.
251 Fri Nov 28 09:30:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
253 * dirinfo.c (e2fsck_add_dir_info): Use ext2fs_get_num_dirs instead
254 of e2fsck_get_num_dirs, which has been removed.
256 Tue Nov 25 15:54:35 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
258 * Makefile.in (PROGS): Remove @EXTRA_PROGS@, since we don't want
259 to compile and install flushb.
261 Mon Nov 24 06:48:00 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
263 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1_check_device_inode): For now, only check
264 to make sure the extra i_blocks in a device are cleared if
265 the immutable flag is set.
267 * util.c (print_resource_track): Fix typo which caused the
268 time/resource tracking to print "Pass 1 :" instead of
271 Thu Nov 20 16:02:23 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
273 * pass3.c (expand_directory): Fix bug which could cause core dump
274 when expanding the directory, and the bitmaps hadn't yet
275 been read in. Also, only use ext2fs_write_dir_block when
276 writing a directory block, not when writing out a fresh
279 Wed Nov 19 16:15:44 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
281 * pass1.c (process_bad_block): Fix bug where first_block wasn't
282 getting incremented, which caused user to get a
283 "Programming error?" warning if there was a bad block in a
284 non-primary superblock/group_descriptor. Also fixed
285 another bug so that ext2fs_bg_has_super() is consulted, to
286 avoid problems when using a filesystem with the
287 sparse_groups option set and there are bad blocks at the
288 beginning of a group which doesn't have a superblock.
290 Thu Nov 6 16:10:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
292 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c, pass5.c: Add calls to the
293 progress indicator function.
295 * pass1.c (scan_callback): Add call to the progress feedback
296 function (if it exists).
298 Tue Nov 4 09:45:36 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
300 * super.c (check_super_block): Skip the device size check if the
301 get_device_size returns EXT2_EXT_UNIMPLEMENTED.
303 * iscan.c (main): Don't use fatal_error() anymore.
305 * pass1b.c, swapfs.c, badblocks.c: Set E2F_FLAG_ABORT instead of
306 calling fatal_error(0).
308 * problem.c, pass3.c (PR_3_ROOT_NOT_DIR_ABORT,
309 PR_3_NO_ROOT_INODE_ABORT): New problem codes.
311 * problem.c, pass2.c (PR_2_SPLIT_DOT): New problem code.
313 * problem.c, pass1.c (PR_1_SUPPRESS_MESSAGES): New problem code.
315 * problemP.h: New file which separates out the private fix_problem
318 * util.c, dirinfo.c, pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass5.c, super.c,
319 swapfs.c util.c: allocate_memory() now takes a e2fsck
320 context as its first argument, and rename it to be
321 e2fsck_allocate_memory().
323 Mon Nov 3 14:35:29 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
325 * unix.c (main): Add a special case check for the error code EROFS
326 and display an appropriate error message for this case.
328 * [lots of files]: Change ext2fs_read_inode, ext2fs_write_inode
329 to take the e2fsck context as their first argument.
330 Change dir_info.c routines to take an e2fsck_context,
331 renamed them to start with e2fsck_ to avoid namespace
332 issues, and changed them to store the directory
333 information inside the e2fsck context.
334 Added e2fsck_run() which calls all of the e2fsck passes in
335 the correct order, and which handles the return of abort
336 codes. Added abort processing, both via setjmp/longjmp
337 and via flags in the e2fsck context. Use a flag in the
338 e2fsck context instead of the restart_e2fsck global
339 variable. Change uses of free and malloc to
340 ext2fs_free_mem and ext2fs_get_mem.
342 Fri Oct 31 01:12:43 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
344 * pass1.c, pass3.c: Rename new error codes to _ET_ in them for
347 Sat Oct 25 00:10:58 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
349 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): Check error return of
350 EXT2_FILE_NOT_FOUND instead of ENOTDIR
352 * pass1.c (pass1_check_directory): Return EXT2_NO_DIRECTORY
355 Fri Oct 24 00:12:39 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
357 * unix.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
358 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
361 * pass1b.c (clone_file): Fix bug in error reporting in the case
362 where cs.errcode is non-zero.
364 Sun Oct 19 21:12:11 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
366 * pass*.c, super.c, unix.c, util.c, e2fsck.h: Place #ifdef
367 RESOURCE_TRACK around code which uses init_resource_track
368 and print_resource_track. (Not all systems have timeval)
370 * super.c: Remove excess #includes which are not necessary.
372 * e2fsck.h: Add #ifdef's for HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H and HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
374 Fri Oct 3 13:40:03 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
376 * pass*.c, super.c: Massive changes to avoid using printf and
377 com_err routines. All diagnostic messages are now routed
378 through the fix_problem interface.
380 Sat Sep 6 17:13:28 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
382 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Check for duplicate '.' and '..'
385 * problem.c, problem.h: Add new problem codes PR_2_DUP_DOT and
388 Tue Sep 2 09:04:51 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
390 * problem.c: Added new problem codes for some of the
391 superblock corruption checks, and for the pass header
392 messages. ("Pass 1: xxxxx")
394 * util.c (print_resource_track): Now takes a description
397 Mon Aug 25 10:23:13 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
399 * super.c, unix.c, e2fsck.c: New files to separate out the
400 operating-specific operations out from e2fsck.c.
401 e2fsck.c now contains the global e2fsck context management
402 routines, and super.c contains the "pass 0" initial
403 validation of the superblock and global block group
406 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c, pass5.c, util.c: Eliminate
407 (nearly) all global variables and moved them to the e2fsck
410 * problem.c, problem.h: Added new problem codes PR_0_SB_CORRUPT,
411 PR_0_FS_SIZE_WRONG, PR_0_NO_FRAGMENTS,
412 PR_0_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP, PR_0_FIRST_DATA_BLOCK
414 Thu Aug 14 10:55:21 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
416 * message.c: Add compression for the word "Illegal"
418 * problem.c: Added entries for PR_2_BAD_CHAR_DEV and
421 Wed Aug 13 09:55:57 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
423 * pass1.c (pass1, check_device_inode), pass2.c
424 (process_bad_inode): Use a more stringent test for a valid
427 Sun Aug 10 18:58:02 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
429 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Add stronger warning message about the
430 perils of running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem.
432 Tue Jun 17 01:33:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
434 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.11
436 Thu Jun 12 00:25:31 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
438 * pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Mark the superblock and group
439 descriptor blocks first, so that any conflicts between
440 these and the bitmap or inode table blocks is noticed.
442 * problem.c: Fix message printed out when a block or inode bitmap
443 conflicts with other fs data, has the correct group number
446 Tue Jun 10 12:07:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
448 * pass2.c (pass2): Check the error return from ext2fs_dblist_iterate.
450 Thu May 8 22:45:27 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
452 * e2fsck.8.in: Fix minor typos and grammer oops found by Bill
453 Hawes (whawes@star.net).
455 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file): Pass the blocksize to the
456 bad blocks command so that all of the filesystem gets
457 tested in the case where the blocksize 2048 or 4096.
459 Thu Apr 24 12:16:42 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
461 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10
463 Mon Apr 21 22:43:08 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
465 * pass1b.c (pass1b): While scanning for inodes, simply skip inodes
466 where ext2fs_get_next_inode returns the
467 EXT2_ET_BAD_BLOCK_IN_INODE_TABLE error.
469 Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
471 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.09
473 Fri Apr 11 18:56:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
475 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.08
477 Thu Apr 10 13:51:16 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
479 * pass1b.c (clone_file_block): If we clone a directory, we need to
480 update the dblist entry so that we check (and correct) the
481 right directory block.
483 Sun Apr 6 09:13:12 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
485 * pass1.c (process_block): Don't clear blocks references to
486 filesystem metadata; let pass 1B handle this case.
488 * problem.c, problem.h: Add new problem, PR_1B_SHARE_METADATA.
490 * pass1b.c (pass1d): Deal with a block which is shared with
493 * e2fsck.h: Make block_illegal_map be a global variable
495 Sat Apr 5 11:51:58 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
497 * e2fsck.c, pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Support the sparse_super
499 (get_backup_sb): New function which attempts to obtain the
500 correct backup superblock (if possible).
502 Fri Apr 4 10:46:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
504 * e2fsck.c (main): Check the version of the library, and warn if
505 the library is out of date; this happens generally due to
506 users who manually install e2fsprogs.
508 * pass1.c (pass1_get_blocks): If the passed in inode number for
509 get_blocks isn't what we're expecting pass back
510 EXT2_ET_CALLBACK_NOT_HANDLED.
512 Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
514 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.07
516 Tue Mar 11 10:31:47 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
518 * icount.c: New file which implements an inode count abstraction.
519 This significantly reduces amount of memory needed to
520 check really large filesystems.
522 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c: Modified to use the icount
525 Fri Mar 7 08:28:55 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
527 * dirinfo.c (dir_info_iter): New function which allows iteration
528 over the directories in the dir_info map.
530 * pass3.c (pass3, check_directory): Speed up pass 3 by iterating
531 over all directories in the dir_info structure, instead of
532 iterating all inodes looking for directories, and then
533 looking up the directories using get_dir_info().
535 Sat Feb 1 11:33:43 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
537 * pass1.c (pass1, process_block):
538 * pass2.c (pass2): Use the ext2_dblist abstraction instead of
539 manual code to manage the directory block list information.
541 * pass1.c (check_blocks), pass1b.c (pass1b), pass2.c
542 (deallocate_inode): Call the ext2 library routine
543 ext2_inode_has_valid_blocks() instead of
544 inode_has_valid_blocks().
546 * swapfs.c (swap_inodes): Add check so that we don't try to call
547 swap_inode_blocks unless the inode has valid blocks.
548 (Otherwise a long fast symlink might cause
549 swap_inode_blocks to erroneously get called.)
551 Wed Jan 22 14:42:53 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
553 * problem.c, problem.h: Added entries for PR_2_DOT_NULL_TERM and
554 PR_2_DOT_DOT_NULL_TERM.
556 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dot_dot): Make sure the new . and
557 .. entries are null-terminated, since the 2.0 kernel
558 requires this (for no good reason).
560 Mon Jan 20 20:05:11 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
562 * pass1.c (pass1): Set the EXT2_SF_SKIP_MISSING_ITABLE flag so
563 that we can recover from missing inode tables.
565 * dirinfo.c (get_dir_info): If there are no directories in the
566 dir_info abstraction, don't core dump (because dir_info is
569 * e2fsck.c (main): Don't try using the backup superblocks if there
571 (check_super_block): If there are illegal inode table or
572 bitmaps, set the filesystem as being in error.
574 Wed Jan 15 11:32:01 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
576 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Added check to make sure that rec_len
577 is a a multiple of 4 (so that the directory entries are
580 Sat Dec 28 12:16:32 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
582 * Makefile.in (uninstall): Uninstall all programs in the PROGS
584 (PROGS): Don't build and install the extend program by
588 Sat Dec 7 16:41:02 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
590 * pass1.c (process_inodes): Make sure the stashed_ino variable is
591 saved and restored as well.
592 (pass1): For fast sym links, skip the check_blocks
593 processing step altogether.
595 Mon Dec 2 09:28:24 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
597 * problem.c, message.c: New files, to completely refurbish how
598 filesystem problems are reported to the user. The
599 diagnostic messages are now encoded out in an easily
600 customizable, extensible format. The messages printed out
601 in preen mode are all on one line, and contain the device
604 Fri Nov 29 20:26:08 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
606 * swapfs.c (swap_inodes): When swapping a filesystem, ignore
609 * pass1.c (pass1): Ignore missing inode table errors during the
610 scan, and just skip past those inodes.
612 * pass3.c (check_root): Remove root_ino argument, and assume that
613 the root inode must be EXT2_ROOT_INO. Move responsibility
614 of setting the parent of the root inode in the directory
615 inode structure to pass2().
617 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Don't allow links to the root
620 * dirinfo.c (add_dir_info): Remove last argument to add_dir_info,
621 since the inode is no longer used.
623 Tue Oct 15 00:06:49 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
625 * e2fsck.c (main): If the superblock magic number is wrong, or the
626 block group fails a sanity check, then automatically
627 restart trying to use the backup superblocks.
629 * pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Make the inode tables ahead of
630 everything else; in the case where a bitmap block overlays
631 the inode table, the inode table should take precedence.
633 * pass2.c (maybe_clear_entry): Make the deleted/unused error
634 message fit on one line, since the error can happen during
635 a preen pass. (We eventually need to revamp the whole
636 e2fsck error reporting and prompting system, but that's a
637 job for another day.)
639 Mon Oct 14 22:29:49 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
641 * e2fsck.c (main): Read in the list badblocks into fs->badblocks
642 for the benefit of the inode scan functions.
644 * pass1.c (pass1): If ext2fs_get_next_inode() returns an error
645 indicating that an inode is in a bad block, mark that
646 inode as being used, as well as in the inode "bb" map.
648 * pass2.c (maybe_clear_entry): New function which generalizes the
649 error cases when a directory entry needs to be cleared.
650 (check_dir_block): If an inode is in the "bb" map, offer
651 to clear the directory entry, since the inode is in a bad
654 * pass4.c (pass4): If an inode is marked as used, but is is marked
655 in the "bb" map, don't process it as a disconnected inode.
657 Tue Oct 8 02:02:03 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
659 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.06
661 Mon Oct 7 00:45:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
663 * e2fsck.c (main): Print out the version number of the shared
664 library when using the -V option.
666 * swapfs.c (swap_filesys): Change EXT2_SWAP to EXT2_FLAG_SWAP for
669 * e2fsck.c (main): By setting EXT2_FLAG_MASTER_SB_ONLY, only write
670 out the backup superblocks when we know we have a valid
673 Tue Oct 1 22:00:29 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
675 * util.c (preenhalt): Make it explicit on preenhalt that running
676 e2fsck manually means without the -a or -p flag.
678 Fri Sep 27 14:41:08 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
680 * pass1.c (pass1): Add support for the EXT2_BOOT_LOADER inode.
681 (Linux/FT actually sets the mode bits, so we have to
682 handle it specially.)
684 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Print a message if the filesystem is
685 just dirty, so that the user knows that it's about to be
686 checked (since this will take a while).
688 Mon Sep 16 17:00:01 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
690 * pass4.c: If a disconnected inode is zero-length, prompt to
691 delete it instead of connecting it to lost+found.
693 Thu Sep 12 15:23:07 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
695 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.05
697 Fri Aug 30 20:24:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
699 * pass4.c (pass4): If the user refuses to connect an unattached
700 inode to lost+found, don't try to set i_links_count. This
701 is bad, since if the user says yes, the inode will be
702 marked as unused, which is not necessarily the right
703 thing, especially since the rest of the cleanup doesn't
706 * pass2.c (deallocate_inode): Set inode_link_info[ino] when
707 dellocating an inode. (Not strictly necessary, but...)
709 * pass4.c (pass4): Add "bonehead" explanation to the "programming
712 Tue Aug 27 11:26:32 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
714 * e2fsck.c (PRS,main): Added new options -s and -S. -s will
715 byte-swap the filesystem so that it is normalized. -S
716 will byte-swap the filesystem regardless of its current
719 * swapfs.c: New file, which will byte-swap a filesystem.
721 Tue Aug 20 09:41:37 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
723 * pass1.c (pass1): Change handling on files with non-zero dtime
724 and non-zero i_link_count; before we treated them as
725 deleted file per botched ext2 0.3c kernel behavior. We
726 now clear dtime instead.
728 Mon Aug 19 23:33:57 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
730 * e2fsck.c (main): If e2fsck sets the clean bit, even if
731 nothing else is changed, make sure FSCK_NONDESTRUCT is
732 set (since after all having the filesystem set to
733 invalid is an error. :-)
735 Fri Aug 9 10:25:13 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
737 * pass1.c (process_block): Make sure that meta data doesn't get
738 accidentally set in the dir_blocks array (which could
739 happen in some error condtions).
742 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): Check for fragments in a
743 OS-independent fashion.
745 Thu Aug 8 15:20:54 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
747 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Close the filesystem when skipping the
748 cleanup for the filesystem.
750 Mon Jul 22 22:03:28 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
752 * e2fsck.c: Improve corrupt_msg, so that it's less confusing.
754 Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
756 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
758 Wed May 15 21:41:29 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
760 * e2fsck.c (relocate_hint): Issue a hint that the user may wish to
761 try "e2fsck -b 8193" before allowing e2fsck to relocate
764 * Makefile.in (e2fsck): Build e2fsck statically or dynamically
765 depending on the option to configure. Added targets for
766 e2fsck.static and e2fsck.shared for people who want to
767 build a static or shared variant manually.
769 Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
771 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
773 Tue Mar 26 12:03:42 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
775 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Don't use floating point to display
776 percentage of non-contiguous files, as different libc
777 handle result truncation differently, and this causes the
778 test suite to bomb out depending on which libc you are
781 * util.c (allocate_memory): Fix error message to omit extraneous
784 Tue Mar 5 03:50:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
787 * pass2.c (check_dir_block):
788 * pass1.c (pass1): Add support for dynamic first inode revision.
790 Wed Feb 14 16:27:30 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
792 * pass3.c (check_root): Fix spelling typo
794 Mon Feb 5 22:30:30 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
796 * e2fsck.c (check_super_block): If the superblock fails certain
797 internal consistency checks, exit with a fatal error after
798 printing the "superblock is corrupt message".
800 Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
802 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
804 Wed Dec 15 21:24:26 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
806 * pass1.c (process_block): Check to see if a file is "fragmented".
807 i.e., non-contiguous. Note that any file which is larger
808 than the block group is guaranteed to be non-contiguous.
809 We may want to use a different hueristic for deciding
810 whether or not a file is "fragmented".
812 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Print statistics of how many
813 non-contiguous files are on the system.
815 Fri Dec 15 19:19:47 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
817 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file, test_disk): Fold
818 functionality of test_disk() (which runs badblocks) into
819 read_bad_blocks_file(); test_disk() now calls
820 read_bad_blocks_file() with a NULL bad_blocks_file
823 Mon Nov 20 18:30:10 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
825 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Use #if defined(__linux__) instead of
826 #if defined(linux). The latter won't work if we're
829 Mon Oct 30 20:31:17 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
831 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): For Linux systems, the check to see if
832 the root is mounted read-only has to be done for all
833 filesystems, not just for the root filesystem, due to the
834 way that some /etc/rc scripts are set up.
836 Thu Oct 26 12:05:30 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
838 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
839 (e2fsck): Build e2fsck statically.
841 Wed Oct 25 21:18:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
843 * util.c (preenhalt): Preenhalt now takes an argument, which is an
844 ext2fs_filsys; this allows it to set the EXT2_ERROR_FS
845 flag in the superblock in cases where preenhalt is called.
846 All calls to preenhalt() were changed to either
847 preenhalt(fs) or preenhalt(NULL) in a few cases where the
848 fs pointer was not available. (Most notable, for block
851 Mon Sep 4 21:41:03 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
854 util.c: Include <sys/time.h> before <sys/resource.h>. BSD needs it.
856 Mon Sep 4 10:14:49 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
858 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Show statistics about how many inodes
859 have indirect, doubly indirect, and triply indirect
860 blocks. Allow up to 8 digits for statistics, instead of
861 merely 6, so things look pretty for large filesystems.
863 * pass1.c (pass1): Keep statistics about indirect, doubly
864 indirect, and triply indirect blocks.
866 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Clear the above statistics when unwinding
869 Fri Aug 18 15:17:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
871 * util.c, ehandler.c: Move #include of <sys/resource.h> after
872 #include of "e2fsck.h", since sys/resource.h may depend on
873 sys/time.h, which is #included in e2fsck.h.
875 Thu Aug 17 22:33:37 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
877 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
878 function to determine if the device is mounted.
880 * e2fsck.c (main): Add better error messages if ext2fs_open()
883 Wed Aug 16 16:25:02 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
885 * pass1.c (check_blocks): If we're clearing a directory, clear
886 pb.is_dir so we don't do the following check of making
887 sure the directory size matches; this is pointless, since
888 we've already cleared the inode.
890 Fri Aug 11 09:08:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
892 * pass1.c (bad_primary_block): New function, called by
893 process_bad_block, which explains the facts of life to the
894 user when a block in the primary superblock or primary
895 group descriptors is bad.
897 * pass2.c (check_dot): Handle the case where the first directory
898 entry is used, but not ".".
900 * pass2.c (check_dotdot): Handle the case where the second directory
901 entry is used, but is not "..".
903 Thu Aug 10 10:05:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
905 * e2fsck.c (check_super_block): Get the size of the physical
906 device and if it is smaller than the reported size of the
907 filesystem, report an error.
909 Sat Aug 12 03:39:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
911 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Print the number of allocated files and
912 blocks on clean filesystems.
914 Fri Aug 11 14:15:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
916 * e2fsck.8: Updated date and version number.
918 Thu Aug 10 14:26:01 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
920 * pass1.c (check_blocks): Check that directory size matches *exactly*
921 the count of allocated blocks.
923 Wed Aug 9 21:21:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
925 * pass1b.c (pass1d): Free the shared[] array when we're done with
926 it to avoid a memory leak.
928 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Use ext2fs_free_block_bitmap to free the
931 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): When clearing the inode, make sure
932 the pathname is freed, to prevent a memory leak.
934 * pass5.c (check_inode_bitmaps): Free free_array and dir_array
935 when we're finished with them.
936 (check_block_bitmaps): Free free_array when we're finished
939 * Makefile.in (e2fsck, flushb): Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) when
940 linking the executable.
942 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): Even on OS's that don't support the
943 fragment fields, make sure the Linux equivalent fields are
944 set to zero. If an OS wants to reuse these fields, which
945 is probably a bad idea (although we may get desperate in
946 the future) this code will have to be changed.
948 * pass1.c (dir_block_cmp): If the block numbers are equal, compare
949 on the inode field, and then blockcnt field. This is just
950 to keep the ordering of dir_blocks the same on all
951 platforms when there are more than on missing directory
952 blocks, which are indicated directories with holes, which
953 are indicated with the block number being set to zero.
955 Sun Aug 6 15:40:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
957 * pass1.c (check_blocks, process_block): check_blocks() modified
958 to call the ext2fs_block_iterate() with BLOCK_FLAG_HOLE if
959 the inode is a directory. process_block() now checks to
960 see if a directory has a "hole", or missing block. If so,
961 this fact is recorded in the directory block list so that
962 the problem can be resolved in pass #2.
964 * pass2.c (allocate_dir_block): Added allocate_dir_block() to
965 allocate new blocks for directories with "holes". Called
966 out of check_dir_block if a block in the directory block
969 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): Move location of free(block) to
970 prevent possible memory leak.
972 Sat Aug 5 12:42:22 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
974 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Use a automatic, fixed-saize array
975 instead of alloca() --- alloca is not portable! Check to
976 make sure the filename is not longer than EXT2_NAME_LEN,
977 and offer to fix it by truncating it, since it should
980 * e2fsck.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
981 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
982 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
983 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
986 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot): Use malloc() instead of
987 alloca() --- alloca() is not portable!!!
989 Tue Jul 18 20:04:02 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
992 * pass3.c (check_root, get_lost_and_found):
993 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Use ext2fs_{read,write}_dir_block
994 to read/write the directory block.
996 Mon Jul 17 04:00:56 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
998 * util.c (ask_yn): Apply patch supplied by Peter A. Zaitcev to
999 make sure VMIN and VTIME are set correct.
1001 Fri Jul 14 19:26:29 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1003 * pass1.c (mark_block_used): Change to be an inline function.
1004 Assume that the block validity checks are already done,
1005 and use the fast variant of the bitmap functions.
1007 Thu Jul 13 08:10:55 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1009 * pass5.c (check_block_bitmaps, check_inode_bitmaps): Check the
1010 bounds of the bitmaps in advance, and then use the fast
1011 variant of e2fs_test_{block,inode}_bitmap.
1013 * pass1.c (mark_block_used): Use ext2_fast_mark_block_bitmap since
1014 the bounds checking has already been done earlier.
1016 Wed Jul 12 02:22:46 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1018 * pass1.c (pass1): Allocate and free the block_illegal_map, which
1019 is used for shortcut processing in process_block.
1020 (mark_table_blocks): Initialize block_illegal_map with the
1022 (describe_illegal_block): New helper function that
1023 describes why a block is illegal.
1024 (process_block): Use block_illegal_map as a shortcut
1025 to determine whether a block is bad. Use
1026 describe_illegal_block to print out why the block is illegal.
1028 Mon Jun 12 19:11:06 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
1030 * flushb.c: Don't include <linux/fs.h> if it doesn't exist.
1032 * scantest.c: Don't include <linux/fs.h>, <getopt.h>, or
1033 <mntent.h> if they don't exist. (Mostly so that "make
1036 * pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass3.c, badblocks.c: Include <errno.h> (if
1039 * e2fsck.c, scantest.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't
1042 Mon Jun 12 08:37:49 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1044 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode, check_for_zero_long,
1045 check_for_zero_char): Change long to u32, and char to u8.
1047 Sun Jun 11 15:05:57 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1049 * util.c (inode_has_valid_blocks):
1050 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode):
1051 * pass1.c (pass1, check_blocks, pass1_check_directory): Use
1052 LINUX_S_IS* instead of S_IS*.
1054 * e2fsck.h: Don't #include <sys/stat.h>
1056 * flushb.c (main): Add #ifdef BLKFLSBUF around ioctl. (Although
1057 this program is pretty much useless if BLKFLSBUF isn't
1060 * e2fsck.c, badblocks.c: Add #include <errno.h>, since errno is
1063 Thu Jun 8 12:31:19 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1065 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot, check_dir_block): Use alloca
1066 to allocate space for file names instead of using fixed size buffers.
1067 (process_bad_inode): Only check inode frag fields if
1068 HAVE_EXT2_FRAGS is defined (by configure).
1069 * pass1.c (pass1): Only check the inode frag fields if
1070 HAVE_EXT2_FRAGS is defined (by configure).
1072 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Only check for a mounted filesystem if
1073 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1074 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1075 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1076 (PRS): Only support the -F (flush) option if the BLKFLSBUF ioctl
1079 * e2fsck.h: Only include <linux/fs.h> if HAVE_LINUX_FS_H is
1080 defined (by configure).
1082 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1083 support separate compilation directories.
1085 Thu Apr 6 15:04:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj.ibp.fr>
1087 * pass1.c (pass1): Test the mode in reserved inodes (must be zero).
1089 Sat Mar 11 13:12:16 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
1091 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Clear the file type statistics counter
1092 when pass 1 needs to be restarted from scratch.
1094 * pass1.c (handle_fs_bad_blocks): Fix bug where bitmap blocks were
1095 being reallocated to blocks in the next block group,
1096 instead of the current block grup.
1098 * pass1.c (pass1, check_blocks): Set inode_link_info[ino] whenever
1099 inode.i_links_count is set.
1101 Tue Feb 14 01:38:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1103 * pass1.c (process_block): Add checks for if the block is
1104 trepassing on a superblock or group descriptor table.
1106 Sat Dec 31 00:52:11 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1108 * main.c (corrupt_msg): Extend the message which is printed out
1109 when the superblock is corrupt, to include the suggestion
1110 of using the -b option to specify an alternate superblock.
1112 Thu Nov 24 09:29:58 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1114 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file): If we are adding or
1115 replacing bad blocks in the bad blocks inode, sanity check
1116 the bad block inode first, and clear out any illegal blocks.
1118 * pass2.c (check_name): Don't bomb out if the attempt to get the
1119 pathname of the containing directory returns an error; the
1120 directory may be too badly damaged to expect that
1121 ext2fs_get_pathname will always succeed. Use "???" if the
1122 pathname can't be obtained (it's only for a printf to the
1125 The name of the containing directory and the bad filename
1126 were incorrectly interchanged in the user message. Fixed.
1128 * pass2.c (check_name, check_dir_block): Use a common static
1129 string for the unknown pathname.
1131 Mon Nov 7 22:30:54 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1133 * Fixed lots of printf formats to make sure that block and inode
1134 numbers are printed as unsigned integers.
1136 Mon Oct 24 14:10:46 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1138 * pass5.c (check_block_end): Fix calculation of how the last block
1139 in the block bitmap should be calculated.
1141 Wed Sep 7 10:01:13 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1143 * pass1b.c (pass1_dupblocks): Fix declaration of dup_inode_map to
1144 be an ext2fs_inode_bitmap, and free it properly.
1147 * e2fsck.c (main): Folded in Remy Card's changes to add a revision
1148 level to the superblock.
1150 Wed Aug 17 22:00:20 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
1152 * e2fsck.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
1154 Wed Aug 17 11:21:45 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1156 * pass1.c (process_bad_block): Fixed bug so that blocks in the
1157 backup superblocks and group descriptors are handled gracefully.
