1 2000-05-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
3 * pass1.c (pass1, check_size): Apply patch from Chris Wedgewood
4 (cw@foof.org) which checks to see if special devices have
5 a non-zero size, and deals with it.
7 * problem.c, problem.h (PR1_SET_NONZSIZE): Add new problem code.
9 2000-05-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
11 * Makefile.in (install): Create a symbolic link for fsck.ext3 as
14 2000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
16 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_0_HURD_CLEAR_FILETYPE): Add new problem
19 * super.c (check_super_block): If the OS type in the superblock is
20 the Hurd, check to see if the filetype feature is set, and
21 offer to clear it if so. This needs to be done since the
22 Hurd doesn't properly support the filetype feature.
23 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
24 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
25 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
26 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
28 2000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
30 * unix.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h, manually
31 define optarg and optind.
33 2000-03-20 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
35 * pass1.c (check_immutable, e2fsck_pass1_check_device_inode):
36 Check for the append-only as well as the immutable flag.
38 * problem.c (PR_1_SET_IMMUTABLE): Adjust message to include
39 append-only flag. Fix comment for compression flag.
41 2000-02-12 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
43 * unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): Limit the number of updates to
44 the progress bars to 8 times a second. This allows a 9600
45 baud console link to keep up.
47 2000-02-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
49 * unix.c (main): If compression is enabled on the filesystem,
50 print a warning message (for now).
52 * message.c: Add new compression shortcut: @c == compress
54 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_1_COMPR_SET): Add new error code.
56 * pass1.c (check_blocks): If the inode has EXT2_COMPRBLK_FL flag
57 set, check to see if the filesystem supports compression.
58 If it does pass this information down to process_block()
59 so it can treat the compressed block flag words
60 correctly. If not, offer to clear the flag, since it
62 (process_block): If an inode has the compressed inode flag
63 set, allow EXT2FS_COMPRESSED_BLKADDR.
65 * pass1b.c (process_pass1b_block, delete_file_block,
67 * pass2.c (deallocate_inode_block): Use HOLE_BLKADDR to check to
68 see if the block can be skipped.
70 2000-02-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
72 * util.c: Make resource tracking message more concise.
75 * pass1.c (mark_table_blocks, e2fsck_pass1): Remove
76 ctx->block_illegal_map, since it's not needed by pass1,
77 and pass1b has been modified to calculate it manually if
78 needed. This reduces the memory footprint needed by e2fsck.
80 * pass1b.c (check_if_fs_block): New static function which returns
81 whether or not a block overlaps with filesystem metadata.
82 This replaces consulting the block_illegal_map bitmap.
84 * Makefile.in: Call sync after finishing building all in this
87 * unix.c (PRS): sync the filesystem before trying to use
88 BLKFLSBUF, to minimize the chance of causing dirty blocks
91 * e2fsck.h: Manually define BLKFLSBUF if not defined, and we're on
94 * pass3.c (check_directory): Only do the loop detection algorithm
95 if we've searched over 2048 parent directories and haven't
96 found the end yet. This means that in the common case, we
97 don't allocate or clear the inode_loop_detection bitmap,
98 which for large systems, merely clearing the bitmap for
99 each directory was turning out to be quite expensive.
100 Thanks to Jani Jaakkola (jjaakkol@cs.helsinki.fi) for
101 identifying this problem.
103 2000-02-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
105 * badblocks.c, e2fsck.h, ehandler.c, emptydir.c, extend.c,
106 flushb.c, iscan.c, message.c, pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass3.c
107 pass4.c, pass5.c, problem.c, scantest.c, swapfs.c,
108 unix.c, util.c: Add Internationalization support as
109 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
111 2000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
113 * e2fsck.h, flushb.c, scantest.c: Remove uneeded include of
116 2000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
118 * Makefile.in: Since LIBUUID can sometimes include "-lsocket"
119 we need a separate DEPLIBUUID that can be used in
120 Makefile's dependency rules.
122 1999-11-23 <tytso@valinux.com>
124 * e2fsck.8.in: Update language about where to find a backup
127 1999-11-19 <tytso@valinux.com>
129 * pass1.c (process_inodes): Add shortcut handling; if
130 process_inodes_count is zero, return right away, to avoid
131 calling qsort with a non-positive count.
133 * message.c (safe_print): Fix to properly display ^A, ^B, etc. and
134 to print Delete as ^?
136 * Makefile.in (distclean): Remove TAGS and Makefile.in.old from
137 the source directory.
139 1999-11-10 <tytso@valinux.com>
141 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.18
143 1999-11-10 <tytso@valinux.com>
145 * problem.c (fix_problem): Support a new flag, PR_PREEN_NO which
146 means the answer is assumed to be no in preen mode. This
147 is now used in the PR_1_SET_IMMUTABLE code, so that in
148 preen mode we ignore these inodes and just print a warning
151 1999-11-09 <tytso@valinux.com>
153 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): If the filesystem does not support
154 imagic inodes, if an inode has the imagic flag set, offer
155 to clear the imagic flag. If a valid device/fifo/socket
156 has the immutable flag set, call the new helper function
157 check_immutable() to offerto clear the immutable flag.
159 * pass2.c (check_filetype): Use the new ext2_file_type() helper
160 function instead of calculating the file_type information
163 * pass3.c (e2fsck_reconnect_file): When adding a link to
164 lost+found, calculate the filetype information so that
165 ext2fs_link() can use the information if applicable.
166 (get_lost_and_found): Create the /lost+found directory
167 with the correct filetype information if applicable.
169 * util.c (ext2_file_type), e2fsck.h: New function which returns
170 the directory entry file type information given the
173 * problem.c, problem.h: Added new problem codes PR_1_SET_IMAGIC
174 and PR_1_SET_IMMUTABLE.
176 1999-11-07 <tytso@valinux.com>
178 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Clear inode_imagic_map after freeing it,
179 to prevent it from getting freed twice.
181 1999-11-06 <tytso@valinux.com>
183 * unix.c (main): Close the filesystem before freeing the context,
184 so that in the event of a free()-related segmentation
185 violation, the filesystem is properly closed and written
188 1999-10-27 <tytso@valinux.com>
190 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_reset_context): When freeing
191 ctx->inode_reg_map, we weren't zero'ing
192 ctx->inode_reg_map, which could cause a segfault later on
195 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
197 * problem.h (PR_2_SPLIT_DOT): Fix excess zero in problem code (now
198 matches the standard convention).
200 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
202 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.17
204 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
206 * message.c (safe_print): Make safe_print take an char instead of
207 an unsigned char to fix gcc warnings.
209 1999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
211 * util.c: For NT portability, don't redefine getchar(), since
212 stdio defines that. Instead we introduce a new
213 abstract macro read_a_char() which is #defined to the
214 right function as necessary.
216 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_2_NULL_NAME): Add new problem code.
218 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Require that the length of the
219 directory entry be at least 12 bytes. Check to see if the
220 filename is zero-length, and flag that as an error.
222 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
224 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
226 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
228 * pass2.c (check_filetype): If the filetype filesystem feature is
229 not set, and a directory entry has a dirent feature, offer
230 to clear it (since 2.0 kernels will do complain will
231 interpret it as a very large name length field).
233 * problem.c (PR_2_CLEAR_FILETYPE): Add new problem code.
235 1999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
237 * e2fsck.8.in: Update man page to use a more standard format (bold
238 option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by
239 Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
241 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): If an inode is set in the
242 inode_imagic_map bitmap, don't check to see if it is
243 disconnected from the inode tree (because it almost
244 certainly will be). Free inode_imagic_map at the end of
247 * pass2.c (check_dir_block, check_filetype): If the FILETYPE
248 feature is set, check the directory entry's filetype
249 information field, and fix/set it if necessary.
250 (e2fsck_pass2): Free the inode_reg_map bitmap at the end
253 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1, alloc_imagic_map): Allocate and fill in
254 information for inode_reg_map and inode_imagic_map, which
255 indicates which inodes are regular files and AFS inodes,
257 Since only the master superblock is written during a
258 restart, force that superblock to be used after a restart;
259 otherwise changes to the block group descriptors end up
262 * problem.c, problemP.h: If e2fsck is run -n, make def_yn variable
263 be 0 for "no". Add support for a new flag, PR_NO_NOMSG,
264 which supresses the problem message if e2fsck is run with
267 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_2_SET_FILETYPE, PR_2_BAD_FILETYPE): Add
270 * message.c (expand_dirent_expression): Add support for %dt which
271 prints the dirent type information.
273 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_reset_context): Free new bitmaps (inode_reg_map
274 and inode_imagic_map).
276 * e2fsck.h (e2fsck_t): Add new inode_reg_map and inode_magic_map
277 to the context structure.
279 1999-09-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
281 * unix.c (PRS), util.c (ask_yn): Add #ifdef's to make
282 e2fsprogs easier to port to non-Unix platforms.
284 1999-09-07 <tytso@valinux.com>
286 * pass3.c (adjust_inode_count): Fix bug where we didn't keep the
287 internal and external inode counts in sync when we
288 decremented an inode whose link count was already zero.
289 Now we skip incrementing or decrementing both link counts
290 if we would cause an overflow condition.
291 (expand_dir, expand_dir_proc): Change where we update the
292 inode block count and size files so that the block count
293 field is updated correctly when we create an indirect block.
295 1999-08-05 <tytso@valinux.com>
297 * super.c (check_super_block): Check to see whether the
298 inodes_per_group value in the superblock is insanely too
301 1999-08-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
303 * pass1b.c (clone_file_block): Don't clear the dup_map flag if
304 the block also shares data with the fs metadata when
305 the count drops to 1, since the block should still be
306 cloned, as fs metadata isn't included in the count.
308 1999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
310 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
312 1999-07-19 <tytso@valinux.com>
314 * unix.c (usage): Add minimalist emergency help to the usage
317 1999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
319 * unix.c: Add support for calculating a progress bar if the -C0
320 option is given. The function e2fsck_clear_progbar()
321 clears the progress bar and must be called before any
322 message is issued. SIGUSR1 will enable the progress bar,
323 and SIGUSR2 will disable the progress bar. This is used
324 by fsck to handle parallel filesystem checks. Also, set
325 the device_name from the filesystem label if it is
328 * e2fsck.h: Add new flags E2F_FLAG_PROG_BAR and
329 E2F_FLAG_PROG_SUPRESS. Add new field in the e2fsck
330 structure which contains the last tenth of a percent
331 printed for the user.
333 * message.c (print_e2fsck_message): Add call to
334 e2fsck_clear_progbar().
336 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1):
337 * pass2.c (e2fsck_pass2):
338 * pass3.c (e2fsck_pass3):
339 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4):
340 * pass5.c (e2fsck_pass5): Add call to e2fsck_clear_progbar when
341 printing the resource tracking information.
343 * pass5.c (check_block_bitmaps, check_inode_bitmaps): If there is
344 an error in the bitmaps, suppress printing the progress
345 bar using the suppression flag for the remainder of the
346 check, in order to clean up the display.
348 1999-06-30 <tytso@valinux.com>
350 * unix.c (check_mount): Clean up the abort message displayed when
351 the filesystem is mounted and either stdout or stdin isn't
354 1999-06-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
357 * pass1.c (pass1_get_blocks, pass1_read_inode, pass1_write_inode,
358 pass1_check_directory, e2fsck_use_inode_shortcuts): Make
359 pass1_* be private static functions, and create new
360 function e2fsck_use_inode_shortcuts which sets and clears
361 the inode shortcut functions in the fs structure.
364 * pass2.c (e2fsck_process_bad_inode): Make process_bad_inode() an
367 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Call e2fsck_process_bad_inode to check
368 if a disconnected inode has any problems before
369 connecting it to /lost+found. Bug and suggested fix by
370 Pavel Machek <pavel@bug.ucw.cz>
372 1999-06-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
374 * unix.c (main): Add missing space in the disk write-protected
377 1999-05-22 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
379 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_0_INODE_COUNT_WRONG): Add new problem
382 * super.c (check_super_block): Add check to make sure the total
383 number of inodes is sane, since this can be calculated
384 from the number of groups times the number of inodes per
385 group. Offer to correct it if it is incorrect.
387 1999-03-19 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
389 * pass5.c (check_block_end): Fix fencepost condition where when
390 clearing the block padding we were missing the last position
393 1999-05-17 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
395 * unix.c (reserve_stdio_fds): Add safety check in case
396 reserve_stdio_fds couldn't open /dev/null.
398 1999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
400 * util.c (print_resource_track): Use mallinfo if present to get
401 more accurate malloc statistics.
403 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): Check to see if lost+found is a
404 plain file; if so, offer to unlink it.
406 * problem.c, problem.h (PR_3_LPF_NOTDIR): Add new problem code.
408 1999-03-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
410 * problem.c: Fix problem message for PR_1_BAD_GROUP_DESCRIPTORS so
411 that the block group number is printed. Add new prompt,
414 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
416 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
418 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
420 * message.c (safe_print): New function which prints strings,
421 converting non-printable characters using the '^' and
422 M-notation. This function is now used to print directory
423 name entries and pathnames.
425 Mon Jan 4 02:28:59 1999 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
427 * unix.c (main): Reset the context before calling ext2fs_close(),
428 to avoid referencing already freed memory.
430 1998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
432 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.13
434 1998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
436 * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
438 1998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
440 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): If the filesystem is not opened
441 read-only, then force /lost+found to be created if it is
444 * problem.c: Allow PR_3_NO_LF_DIR to be handled during a preen
447 1998-10-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
449 * unix.c (main): Move ext2fs_close() after e2fsck_free_context()
450 since e2fsck_free_context may reference data in ctx->fs.
452 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_reset_context): Make sure ctx->fs is non-NULL
453 before checking ctx->fs->dblist.
455 1998-10-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
457 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): Use the device check subroutine on
458 FIFO's and Socket's, so that we catch bogus immutable inodes.
460 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): Process bad socket and fifo's.
462 * problem.h, problem.c: Define new problem codes PR_2_BAD_FIFO and
465 1998-09-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
467 * problem.c: Add PR_3_NO_DIRINFO error code.
469 * super.c (check_super_value): Rename min and max to min_val and
470 max_val to avoid possible cpp macro conflicts.
472 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Rename max to maxgroup, to avoid
473 possible cpp macro conflicts.
475 * pass3.c (e2fsck_pass3): Rename max to maxdirs, to avoid possible
477 (check_directory): Fix logic to avoid possible core dump
478 in the case of ext2fs_get_dir_info returning NULL. (By
479 the time we get here, it should never happen, but...).
480 Also simply/streamline the control flow of the function.
482 1998-08-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
484 * unix.c (check_if_skip): Move the "not cleanly mounted" check
485 ahead of the maximal mount and too long since checked tests.
486 (reserve_stdio_fds): Make sure 0,1,2 file descriptors are
487 open, so that we don't open the filesystem using the same
488 file descriptor as stdout or stderr.
490 1998-08-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
492 * pass2.c (e2fsck_pass2): Fix the progress accounting so that we
495 * pass3.c (e2fsck_pass3): Change progress accounting to be
496 consistent with the other e2fsck passes.
498 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_run): At the end of each pass, call the
499 progress function with the pass number set to zero.
501 * unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): If the pass number is zero,
502 ignore the call, since that indicates that we just want to
503 deallocate any progress structures.
505 1998-07-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
507 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.12
509 1998-07-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
511 * unix.c (main): Fix typo in checking the incompat feature set; it
512 should be checked against EXT2_LIB_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_SUPP.
514 1998-07-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
516 * badblocks.c (test_disk): Don't clear the existing bad blocks
517 list when using e2fsck -c, since it may cause blocks with
518 marginal errors to be dropped from the bad blocks list.
520 Mon Jul 6 10:32:11 1998 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
522 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): Use ext2fs_sb structure for
523 compatibility with older kernels.
525 1998-06-25 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
527 * unix.c (e2fsck_update_progress): Remove unused variables.
529 1998-06-10 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
531 * pass1.c, problem.h: Change blkcnt_t to be e2_blkcnt_t to avoid
532 collision with LFS API.
534 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): Fix bug so that ext2_max_sizes is
535 properly initialized.
536 (e2fsck_pass1): Don't allow the the boot loader inode to
537 be a directory (clear the inode mode field if so).
539 1998-05-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
541 * unix.c (PRS): Added new option -C, which causes e2fsck to print
542 progress updates so that callers can keep track of the
543 completion progress of e2fsck. Designed for use by
544 progress, except for -C 0, which prints a spinning report
545 which may be useful for some users.
547 * pass5.c (e2fsck_pass5): Use a finer-grained progress reporting
548 scheme (useful for larger filesystems).
550 * e2fsck.h: Add progress_fd and progress_pos, for use by the Unix
551 progress reporting functions.
553 1998-04-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
555 * pass1.c (process_inode_cmp): Use EXT2_QSORT_TYPE to define the
556 appropriate return type for comparison functions for qsort.
558 * e2fsck.h: Add #ifdef protection for unistd.h
560 * super.c: Remove header files already included by e2fsck.h
562 1998-04-26 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
564 * dirinfo.c (e2fsck_add_dir_info): Update function to pass the old
565 size of the memory to be resized to ext2fs_resize_mem().
567 1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
569 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
570 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
571 account. Remove cat8dir from the installdirs target,
572 since modern man package don't necessarily put the cat
573 directory in /usr/man/cat?.
575 1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
577 * super.c, e2fsck.h: Always declare e2fsck_get_device_size() as an
578 extern in e2fsck.h to prevent -Wall warnings.
580 * pass4.c (e2fsck_pass4): Remove unused variable 'j'.
582 1998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
584 * super.c (check_super_block): Fix broken superblock sanity check
585 when calculating blocks_per_group if s_log_frag_size !=
586 s_log_block_size. Since we don't support fragments, this
587 isn't a bug deal, but it's good to get it fixed.
589 1998-03-23 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
591 * unix.c: Fix bug in check of feature set, to make sure we can
592 really fix this filesystem.
594 * problem.h: Make blkcount type to be of type blkcnt_t. Make the
595 num field be a 64 bit type. Add the problem code
596 PR_1_FEATURE_LARGE_FILES
598 * problem.c: Add table entry for the problem code
599 PR_1_FEATURE_LARGE_FILES.
601 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): A non-zero i_dir_acl field is only
602 a problem for directory inodes. (Since it is also
603 i_size_high now.) If there are no large_files, then
604 clear the LARGE_FLAG feature flag. If there are
605 large_files, but the LARGE_FLAG feature flag is not set,
606 complain and offer to fix it.
607 (check_blocks): Add support to deal with non-directory
608 inodes that have i_size_high set (i.e., large_files).
609 Don't give an error if a directory has preallocated
610 blocks, to support the DIR_PREALLOC feature.
611 (process_block, process_bad_block): The blockcnt variable
612 is a type of blkcnt_t, for conversion to the new
615 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): A non-zero i_dir_acl field is only
616 a problem for directory inodes. (Since it is also
619 * message.c (expand_inode_expression): Print a 64-bits of the
620 inode size for non-directory inodes. (Directory inodes
621 can only use a 32-bit directory acl size, since
622 i_size_high is shared with i_dir_acl.) Add sanity check
623 so that trying to print out the directory acl on a
624 non-directory inode will print zero.
625 (expand_percent_expression): %B and %N, which print
626 pctx->blkcount and pctx->num, can now be 64 bit
627 variables. Print them using the "%lld" format if
628 EXT2_NO_64_TYPE is not defined.
630 * e2fsck.h: Add the large_flagsfield to the e2fsck context.
632 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_reset_context): Clear the large_flags
635 Sun Mar 8 23:08:08 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
637 * pass3.c (fix_dotdot_proc):
638 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot, check_name, check_dir_block):
639 * message.c (expand_dirent_expression): Mask off the high eight
640 bits of the directory entry's name_len field, so that it
641 can be used for other purposes.
643 Fri Feb 27 00:01:39 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
645 * e2fsck.c (e2fsck_run): Since E2F_FLAG_SIGNAL_MASK doesn't
646 include EXT2_FLAG_RESTART anymore, we need to adjust this
647 routine so that it *does* return in the case of it seeing
650 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1): ext2_get_next_inode() may call the group
651 done callback function, which may set context abort
652 flags. So we need to test the context abort flags after
653 we call ext2_get_next_inode().
654 (process_inodes): If we abort due out of process_inodes,
655 do a clean exit by breaking out of the for loop instead of
658 * e2fsck.h (E2F_FLAG_SIGNAL_MASK): EXT2_FLAG_RESTART shouldn't be
659 considered a SIGNAL mask (i.e., requiring an immediate
660 abort of processing to restart). FLAG_RESTART just means
661 that we want to restart once pass 1 is complete.
663 Tue Feb 24 15:19:40 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
665 * Change the progress function to return an integer; if returns 1,
666 then the progress function is expected to have set the
667 e2fsck context flag signalling a user abort, and the
668 caller should also initiate a user abort.
670 Tue Feb 17 19:03:44 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
672 * pass5.c (check_block_bitmaps, check_inode_bitmaps): Don't call
673 end_problem_latch() unless there was actually a problem
674 latched. Simplifies semantics of the latch processing.
676 Mon Feb 16 17:31:44 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
678 * e2fsck.h: Add new field, priv_data to the e2fsck context
679 structure. It should be used by callers of the e2fsck
680 functions only, and not by anything in e2fsck itself.
682 Mon Feb 7 17:31:04 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
684 * super.c: Instead of call ext2fs_get_device_size(), define and call
685 e2fsck_get_device_size(). (This function may be stubbed
686 out in special versions of e2fsck.)
688 * pass3.c, pass4.c: Remove extra calls to the progress function
691 * mke2fs.8.in: Update man page to note that the format of the bad
692 block file is the same as the one generated by badblocks.
694 Sun Feb 1 07:57:14 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
696 * dirinfo.c, e2fsck.c: Don't include com_err.h; it isn't needed.
698 * e2fsck.h: Include <time.h> since it is needed
700 * super.c: If EXT2_SKIP_UUID is defined, then skip the UUID
703 Tue Jan 20 15:37:01 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
705 * unix.c (main): In the case where the filesystem revision is too
706 high, print the message about the superblock possibly
709 * e2fsck.8.in: Add expanded comments about how the -b option
712 Sat Jan 17 13:02:16 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
714 * e2fsck.h: If EXT2_FLAT_INCLUDES is defined, then assume all of
715 the ext2-specific header files are in a flat directory.
717 * dirinfo.c, ehandler.c, pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass5.c,
718 super.c, swapfs.c, unix.c: Explicitly cast all assignments
719 from void * to be compatible with C++.
721 Tue Jan 6 11:30:24 1998 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
723 * unix.c (sync_disk): Remove sync_disk and calls to that function,
724 since ext2fs_close() now takes care of this.
726 Mon Dec 29 14:45:42 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
728 * pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, swapfs, badblocks.c,
729 ehandler.c, unix.c: Change use of private to be priv_data,
730 to avoid C++ reserved name clash.
732 Fri Nov 28 09:30:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
734 * dirinfo.c (e2fsck_add_dir_info): Use ext2fs_get_num_dirs instead
735 of e2fsck_get_num_dirs, which has been removed.
737 Tue Nov 25 15:54:35 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
739 * Makefile.in (PROGS): Remove @EXTRA_PROGS@, since we don't want
740 to compile and install flushb.
742 Mon Nov 24 06:48:00 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
744 * pass1.c (e2fsck_pass1_check_device_inode): For now, only check
745 to make sure the extra i_blocks in a device are cleared if
746 the immutable flag is set.
748 * util.c (print_resource_track): Fix typo which caused the
749 time/resource tracking to print "Pass 1 :" instead of
752 Thu Nov 20 16:02:23 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
754 * pass3.c (expand_directory): Fix bug which could cause core dump
755 when expanding the directory, and the bitmaps hadn't yet
756 been read in. Also, only use ext2fs_write_dir_block when
757 writing a directory block, not when writing out a fresh
760 Wed Nov 19 16:15:44 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
762 * pass1.c (process_bad_block): Fix bug where first_block wasn't
763 getting incremented, which caused user to get a
764 "Programming error?" warning if there was a bad block in a
765 non-primary superblock/group_descriptor. Also fixed
766 another bug so that ext2fs_bg_has_super() is consulted, to
767 avoid problems when using a filesystem with the
768 sparse_groups option set and there are bad blocks at the
769 beginning of a group which doesn't have a superblock.
771 Thu Nov 6 16:10:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
773 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c, pass5.c: Add calls to the
774 progress indicator function.
776 * pass1.c (scan_callback): Add call to the progress feedback
777 function (if it exists).
779 Tue Nov 4 09:45:36 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
781 * super.c (check_super_block): Skip the device size check if the
782 get_device_size returns EXT2_EXT_UNIMPLEMENTED.
784 * iscan.c (main): Don't use fatal_error() anymore.
786 * pass1b.c, swapfs.c, badblocks.c: Set E2F_FLAG_ABORT instead of
787 calling fatal_error(0).
789 * problem.c, pass3.c (PR_3_ROOT_NOT_DIR_ABORT,
790 PR_3_NO_ROOT_INODE_ABORT): New problem codes.
792 * problem.c, pass2.c (PR_2_SPLIT_DOT): New problem code.
794 * problem.c, pass1.c (PR_1_SUPPRESS_MESSAGES): New problem code.
796 * problemP.h: New file which separates out the private fix_problem
799 * util.c, dirinfo.c, pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass2.c, pass5.c, super.c,
800 swapfs.c util.c: allocate_memory() now takes a e2fsck
801 context as its first argument, and rename it to be
802 e2fsck_allocate_memory().
804 Mon Nov 3 14:35:29 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
806 * unix.c (main): Add a special case check for the error code EROFS
807 and display an appropriate error message for this case.
809 * [lots of files]: Change ext2fs_read_inode, ext2fs_write_inode
810 to take the e2fsck context as their first argument.
811 Change dir_info.c routines to take an e2fsck_context,
812 renamed them to start with e2fsck_ to avoid namespace
813 issues, and changed them to store the directory
814 information inside the e2fsck context.
815 Added e2fsck_run() which calls all of the e2fsck passes in
816 the correct order, and which handles the return of abort
817 codes. Added abort processing, both via setjmp/longjmp
818 and via flags in the e2fsck context. Use a flag in the
819 e2fsck context instead of the restart_e2fsck global
820 variable. Change uses of free and malloc to
821 ext2fs_free_mem and ext2fs_get_mem.
823 Fri Oct 31 01:12:43 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
825 * pass1.c, pass3.c: Rename new error codes to _ET_ in them for
828 Sat Oct 25 00:10:58 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
830 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): Check error return of
831 EXT2_FILE_NOT_FOUND instead of ENOTDIR
833 * pass1.c (pass1_check_directory): Return EXT2_NO_DIRECTORY
836 Fri Oct 24 00:12:39 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
838 * unix.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be
839 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
842 * pass1b.c (clone_file): Fix bug in error reporting in the case
843 where cs.errcode is non-zero.
845 Sun Oct 19 21:12:11 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
847 * pass*.c, super.c, unix.c, util.c, e2fsck.h: Place #ifdef
848 RESOURCE_TRACK around code which uses init_resource_track
849 and print_resource_track. (Not all systems have timeval)
851 * super.c: Remove excess #includes which are not necessary.
853 * e2fsck.h: Add #ifdef's for HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H and HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
855 Fri Oct 3 13:40:03 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
857 * pass*.c, super.c: Massive changes to avoid using printf and
858 com_err routines. All diagnostic messages are now routed
859 through the fix_problem interface.
861 Sat Sep 6 17:13:28 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
863 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Check for duplicate '.' and '..'

869 Tue Sep 2 09:04:51 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
871 * problem.c: Added new problem codes for some of the
872 superblock corruption checks, and for the pass header
873 messages. ("Pass 1: xxxxx")
875 * util.c (print_resource_track): Now takes a description
878 Mon Aug 25 10:23:13 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
880 * super.c, unix.c, e2fsck.c: New files to separate out the
881 operating-specific operations out from e2fsck.c.
882 e2fsck.c now contains the global e2fsck context management
883 routines, and super.c contains the "pass 0" initial
884 validation of the superblock and global block group
887 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c, pass5.c, util.c: Eliminate
888 (nearly) all global variables and moved them to the e2fsck
891 * problem.c, problem.h: Added new problem codes PR_0_SB_CORRUPT,
892 PR_0_FS_SIZE_WRONG, PR_0_NO_FRAGMENTS,
893 PR_0_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP, PR_0_FIRST_DATA_BLOCK
895 Thu Aug 14 10:55:21 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
897 * message.c: Add compression for the word "Illegal"
899 * problem.c: Added entries for PR_2_BAD_CHAR_DEV and
902 Wed Aug 13 09:55:57 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
904 * pass1.c (pass1, check_device_inode), pass2.c
905 (process_bad_inode): Use a more stringent test for a valid
908 Sun Aug 10 18:58:02 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
910 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Add stronger warning message about the
911 perils of running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem.
913 Tue Jun 17 01:33:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
915 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.11
917 Thu Jun 12 00:25:31 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
919 * pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Mark the superblock and group
920 descriptor blocks first, so that any conflicts between
921 these and the bitmap or inode table blocks is noticed.
923 * problem.c: Fix message printed out when a block or inode bitmap
924 conflicts with other fs data, has the correct group number
927 Tue Jun 10 12:07:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
929 * pass2.c (pass2): Check the error return from ext2fs_dblist_iterate.
931 Thu May 8 22:45:27 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
933 * e2fsck.8.in: Fix minor typos and grammer oops found by Bill
934 Hawes (whawes@star.net).
936 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file): Pass the blocksize to the
937 bad blocks command so that all of the filesystem gets
938 tested in the case where the blocksize 2048 or 4096.
940 Thu Apr 24 12:16:42 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
942 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10
944 Mon Apr 21 22:43:08 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
946 * pass1b.c (pass1b): While scanning for inodes, simply skip inodes
947 where ext2fs_get_next_inode returns the
948 EXT2_ET_BAD_BLOCK_IN_INODE_TABLE error.
950 Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
952 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.09
954 Fri Apr 11 18:56:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
956 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.08
958 Thu Apr 10 13:51:16 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
960 * pass1b.c (clone_file_block): If we clone a directory, we need to
961 update the dblist entry so that we check (and correct) the
962 right directory block.
964 Sun Apr 6 09:13:12 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
966 * pass1.c (process_block): Don't clear blocks references to
967 filesystem metadata; let pass 1B handle this case.
969 * problem.c, problem.h: Add new problem, PR_1B_SHARE_METADATA.
971 * pass1b.c (pass1d): Deal with a block which is shared with
974 * e2fsck.h: Make block_illegal_map be a global variable
976 Sat Apr 5 11:51:58 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
978 * e2fsck.c, pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Support the sparse_super
980 (get_backup_sb): New function which attempts to obtain the
981 correct backup superblock (if possible).
983 Fri Apr 4 10:46:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
985 * e2fsck.c (main): Check the version of the library, and warn if
986 the library is out of date; this happens generally due to
987 users who manually install e2fsprogs.
989 * pass1.c (pass1_get_blocks): If the passed in inode number for
990 get_blocks isn't what we're expecting pass back
991 EXT2_ET_CALLBACK_NOT_HANDLED.
993 Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
995 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.07
997 Tue Mar 11 10:31:47 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
999 * icount.c: New file which implements an inode count abstraction.
1000 This significantly reduces amount of memory needed to
1001 check really large filesystems.
1003 * pass1.c, pass2.c, pass3.c, pass4.c: Modified to use the icount
1006 Fri Mar 7 08:28:55 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1008 * dirinfo.c (dir_info_iter): New function which allows iteration
1009 over the directories in the dir_info map.
1011 * pass3.c (pass3, check_directory): Speed up pass 3 by iterating
1012 over all directories in the dir_info structure, instead of
1013 iterating all inodes looking for directories, and then
1014 looking up the directories using get_dir_info().
1016 Sat Feb 1 11:33:43 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1018 * pass1.c (pass1, process_block):
1019 * pass2.c (pass2): Use the ext2_dblist abstraction instead of
1020 manual code to manage the directory block list information.
1022 * pass1.c (check_blocks), pass1b.c (pass1b), pass2.c
1023 (deallocate_inode): Call the ext2 library routine
1024 ext2_inode_has_valid_blocks() instead of
1025 inode_has_valid_blocks().
1027 * swapfs.c (swap_inodes): Add check so that we don't try to call
1028 swap_inode_blocks unless the inode has valid blocks.
1029 (Otherwise a long fast symlink might cause
1030 swap_inode_blocks to erroneously get called.)
1032 Wed Jan 22 14:42:53 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1034 * problem.c, problem.h: Added entries for PR_2_DOT_NULL_TERM and
1035 PR_2_DOT_DOT_NULL_TERM.
1037 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dot_dot): Make sure the new . and
1038 .. entries are null-terminated, since the 2.0 kernel
1039 requires this (for no good reason).
1041 Mon Jan 20 20:05:11 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1043 * pass1.c (pass1): Set the EXT2_SF_SKIP_MISSING_ITABLE flag so
1044 that we can recover from missing inode tables.
1046 * dirinfo.c (get_dir_info): If there are no directories in the
1047 dir_info abstraction, don't core dump (because dir_info is
1050 * e2fsck.c (main): Don't try using the backup superblocks if there
1052 (check_super_block): If there are illegal inode table or
1053 bitmaps, set the filesystem as being in error.
1055 Wed Jan 15 11:32:01 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1057 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Added check to make sure that rec_len
1058 is a a multiple of 4 (so that the directory entries are
1061 Sat Dec 28 12:16:32 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1063 * Makefile.in (uninstall): Uninstall all programs in the PROGS
1065 (PROGS): Don't build and install the extend program by
1069 Sat Dec 7 16:41:02 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1071 * pass1.c (process_inodes): Make sure the stashed_ino variable is
1072 saved and restored as well.
1073 (pass1): For fast sym links, skip the check_blocks
1074 processing step altogether.
1076 Mon Dec 2 09:28:24 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1078 * problem.c, message.c: New files, to completely refurbish how
1079 filesystem problems are reported to the user. The
1080 diagnostic messages are now encoded out in an easily
1081 customizable, extensible format. The messages printed out
1082 in preen mode are all on one line, and contain the device
1085 Fri Nov 29 20:26:08 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1087 * swapfs.c (swap_inodes): When swapping a filesystem, ignore
1090 * pass1.c (pass1): Ignore missing inode table errors during the
1091 scan, and just skip past those inodes.
1093 * pass3.c (check_root): Remove root_ino argument, and assume that
1094 the root inode must be EXT2_ROOT_INO. Move responsibility
1095 of setting the parent of the root inode in the directory
1096 inode structure to pass2().
1098 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Don't allow links to the root
1101 * dirinfo.c (add_dir_info): Remove last argument to add_dir_info,
1102 since the inode is no longer used.
1104 Tue Oct 15 00:06:49 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1106 * e2fsck.c (main): If the superblock magic number is wrong, or the
1107 block group fails a sanity check, then automatically
1108 restart trying to use the backup superblocks.
1110 * pass1.c (mark_table_blocks): Make the inode tables ahead of
1111 everything else; in the case where a bitmap block overlays
1112 the inode table, the inode table should take precedence.
1114 * pass2.c (maybe_clear_entry): Make the deleted/unused error
1115 message fit on one line, since the error can happen during
1116 a preen pass. (We eventually need to revamp the whole
1117 e2fsck error reporting and prompting system, but that's a
1118 job for another day.)
1120 Mon Oct 14 22:29:49 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1122 * e2fsck.c (main): Read in the list badblocks into fs->badblocks
1123 for the benefit of the inode scan functions.
1125 * pass1.c (pass1): If ext2fs_get_next_inode() returns an error
1126 indicating that an inode is in a bad block, mark that
1127 inode as being used, as well as in the inode "bb" map.
1129 * pass2.c (maybe_clear_entry): New function which generalizes the
1130 error cases when a directory entry needs to be cleared.
1131 (check_dir_block): If an inode is in the "bb" map, offer
1132 to clear the directory entry, since the inode is in a bad
1135 * pass4.c (pass4): If an inode is marked as used, but is is marked
1136 in the "bb" map, don't process it as a disconnected inode.
1138 Tue Oct 8 02:02:03 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1140 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.06
1142 Mon Oct 7 00:45:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1144 * e2fsck.c (main): Print out the version number of the shared
1145 library when using the -V option.
1147 * swapfs.c (swap_filesys): Change EXT2_SWAP to EXT2_FLAG_SWAP for
1150 * e2fsck.c (main): By setting EXT2_FLAG_MASTER_SB_ONLY, only write
1151 out the backup superblocks when we know we have a valid
1154 Tue Oct 1 22:00:29 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1156 * util.c (preenhalt): Make it explicit on preenhalt that running
1157 e2fsck manually means without the -a or -p flag.
1159 Fri Sep 27 14:41:08 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1161 * pass1.c (pass1): Add support for the EXT2_BOOT_LOADER inode.
1162 (Linux/FT actually sets the mode bits, so we have to
1163 handle it specially.)
1165 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Print a message if the filesystem is
1166 just dirty, so that the user knows that it's about to be
1167 checked (since this will take a while).
1169 Mon Sep 16 17:00:01 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1171 * pass4.c: If a disconnected inode is zero-length, prompt to
1172 delete it instead of connecting it to lost+found.
1174 Thu Sep 12 15:23:07 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1176 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.05
1178 Fri Aug 30 20:24:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1180 * pass4.c (pass4): If the user refuses to connect an unattached
1181 inode to lost+found, don't try to set i_links_count. This
1182 is bad, since if the user says yes, the inode will be
1183 marked as unused, which is not necessarily the right
1184 thing, especially since the rest of the cleanup doesn't
1187 * pass2.c (deallocate_inode): Set inode_link_info[ino] when
1188 dellocating an inode. (Not strictly necessary, but...)
1190 * pass4.c (pass4): Add "bonehead" explanation to the "programming
1193 Tue Aug 27 11:26:32 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1195 * e2fsck.c (PRS,main): Added new options -s and -S. -s will
1196 byte-swap the filesystem so that it is normalized. -S
1197 will byte-swap the filesystem regardless of its current
1200 * swapfs.c: New file, which will byte-swap a filesystem.
1202 Tue Aug 20 09:41:37 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1204 * pass1.c (pass1): Change handling on files with non-zero dtime
1205 and non-zero i_link_count; before we treated them as
1206 deleted file per botched ext2 0.3c kernel behavior. We
1207 now clear dtime instead.
1209 Mon Aug 19 23:33:57 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1211 * e2fsck.c (main): If e2fsck sets the clean bit, even if
1212 nothing else is changed, make sure FSCK_NONDESTRUCT is
1213 set (since after all having the filesystem set to
1214 invalid is an error. :-)
1216 Fri Aug 9 10:25:13 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1218 * pass1.c (process_block): Make sure that meta data doesn't get
1219 accidentally set in the dir_blocks array (which could
1220 happen in some error condtions).
1223 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): Check for fragments in a
1224 OS-independent fashion.
1226 Thu Aug 8 15:20:54 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1228 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Close the filesystem when skipping the
1229 cleanup for the filesystem.
1231 Mon Jul 22 22:03:28 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1233 * e2fsck.c: Improve corrupt_msg, so that it's less confusing.
1235 Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1237 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
1239 Wed May 15 21:41:29 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1241 * e2fsck.c (relocate_hint): Issue a hint that the user may wish to
1242 try "e2fsck -b 8193" before allowing e2fsck to relocate
1245 * Makefile.in (e2fsck): Build e2fsck statically or dynamically
1246 depending on the option to configure. Added targets for
1247 e2fsck.static and e2fsck.shared for people who want to
1248 build a static or shared variant manually.
1250 Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1252 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
1254 Tue Mar 26 12:03:42 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1256 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Don't use floating point to display
1257 percentage of non-contiguous files, as different libc
1258 handle result truncation differently, and this causes the
1259 test suite to bomb out depending on which libc you are
1262 * util.c (allocate_memory): Fix error message to omit extraneous
1265 Tue Mar 5 03:50:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1268 * pass2.c (check_dir_block):
1269 * pass1.c (pass1): Add support for dynamic first inode revision.
1271 Wed Feb 14 16:27:30 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1273 * pass3.c (check_root): Fix spelling typo
1275 Mon Feb 5 22:30:30 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1277 * e2fsck.c (check_super_block): If the superblock fails certain
1278 internal consistency checks, exit with a fatal error after
1279 printing the "superblock is corrupt message".
1281 Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1283 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
1285 Wed Dec 15 21:24:26 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1287 * pass1.c (process_block): Check to see if a file is "fragmented".
1288 i.e., non-contiguous. Note that any file which is larger
1289 than the block group is guaranteed to be non-contiguous.
1290 We may want to use a different hueristic for deciding
1291 whether or not a file is "fragmented".
1293 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Print statistics of how many
1294 non-contiguous files are on the system.
1296 Fri Dec 15 19:19:47 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1298 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file, test_disk): Fold
1299 functionality of test_disk() (which runs badblocks) into
1300 read_bad_blocks_file(); test_disk() now calls
1301 read_bad_blocks_file() with a NULL bad_blocks_file
1304 Mon Nov 20 18:30:10 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1306 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Use #if defined(__linux__) instead of
1307 #if defined(linux). The latter won't work if we're
1310 Mon Oct 30 20:31:17 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1312 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): For Linux systems, the check to see if
1313 the root is mounted read-only has to be done for all
1314 filesystems, not just for the root filesystem, due to the
1315 way that some /etc/rc scripts are set up.
1317 Thu Oct 26 12:05:30 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1319 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1320 (e2fsck): Build e2fsck statically.
1322 Wed Oct 25 21:18:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1324 * util.c (preenhalt): Preenhalt now takes an argument, which is an
1325 ext2fs_filsys; this allows it to set the EXT2_ERROR_FS
1326 flag in the superblock in cases where preenhalt is called.
1327 All calls to preenhalt() were changed to either
1328 preenhalt(fs) or preenhalt(NULL) in a few cases where the
1329 fs pointer was not available. (Most notable, for block
1332 Mon Sep 4 21:41:03 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1335 util.c: Include <sys/time.h> before <sys/resource.h>. BSD needs it.
1337 Mon Sep 4 10:14:49 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1339 * e2fsck.c (show_stats): Show statistics about how many inodes
1340 have indirect, doubly indirect, and triply indirect
1341 blocks. Allow up to 8 digits for statistics, instead of
1342 merely 6, so things look pretty for large filesystems.
1344 * pass1.c (pass1): Keep statistics about indirect, doubly
1345 indirect, and triply indirect blocks.
1347 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Clear the above statistics when unwinding
1350 Fri Aug 18 15:17:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1352 * util.c, ehandler.c: Move #include of <sys/resource.h> after
1353 #include of "e2fsck.h", since sys/resource.h may depend on
1354 sys/time.h, which is #included in e2fsck.h.
1356 Thu Aug 17 22:33:37 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1358 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1359 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1361 * e2fsck.c (main): Add better error messages if ext2fs_open()
1364 Wed Aug 16 16:25:02 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1366 * pass1.c (check_blocks): If we're clearing a directory, clear
1367 pb.is_dir so we don't do the following check of making
1368 sure the directory size matches; this is pointless, since
1369 we've already cleared the inode.
1371 Fri Aug 11 09:08:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1373 * pass1.c (bad_primary_block): New function, called by
1374 process_bad_block, which explains the facts of life to the
1375 user when a block in the primary superblock or primary
1376 group descriptors is bad.
1378 * pass2.c (check_dot): Handle the case where the first directory
1379 entry is used, but not ".".
1381 * pass2.c (check_dotdot): Handle the case where the second directory
1382 entry is used, but is not "..".
1384 Thu Aug 10 10:05:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1386 * e2fsck.c (check_super_block): Get the size of the physical
1387 device and if it is smaller than the reported size of the
1388 filesystem, report an error.
1390 Sat Aug 12 03:39:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1392 * e2fsck.c (check_if_skip): Print the number of allocated files and
1393 blocks on clean filesystems.
1395 Fri Aug 11 14:15:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1397 * e2fsck.8: Updated date and version number.
1399 Thu Aug 10 14:26:01 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1401 * pass1.c (check_blocks): Check that directory size matches *exactly*
1402 the count of allocated blocks.
1404 Wed Aug 9 21:21:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1406 * pass1b.c (pass1d): Free the shared[] array when we're done with
1407 it to avoid a memory leak.
1409 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Use ext2fs_free_block_bitmap to free the
1412 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): When clearing the inode, make sure
1413 the pathname is freed, to prevent a memory leak.
1415 * pass5.c (check_inode_bitmaps): Free free_array and dir_array
1416 when we're finished with them.
1417 (check_block_bitmaps): Free free_array when we're finished
1420 * Makefile.in (e2fsck, flushb): Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) when
1421 linking the executable.
1423 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode): Even on OS's that don't support the
1424 fragment fields, make sure the Linux equivalent fields are
1425 set to zero. If an OS wants to reuse these fields, which
1426 is probably a bad idea (although we may get desperate in
1427 the future) this code will have to be changed.
1429 * pass1.c (dir_block_cmp): If the block numbers are equal, compare
1430 on the inode field, and then blockcnt field. This is just
1431 to keep the ordering of dir_blocks the same on all
1432 platforms when there are more than on missing directory
1433 blocks, which are indicated directories with holes, which
1434 are indicated with the block number being set to zero.
1436 Sun Aug 6 15:40:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1438 * pass1.c (check_blocks, process_block): check_blocks() modified
1439 to call the ext2fs_block_iterate() with BLOCK_FLAG_HOLE if
1440 the inode is a directory. process_block() now checks to
1441 see if a directory has a "hole", or missing block. If so,
1442 this fact is recorded in the directory block list so that
1443 the problem can be resolved in pass #2.
1445 * pass2.c (allocate_dir_block): Added allocate_dir_block() to
1446 allocate new blocks for directories with "holes". Called
1447 out of check_dir_block if a block in the directory block
1450 * pass3.c (get_lost_and_found): Move location of free(block) to
1451 prevent possible memory leak.
1453 Sat Aug 5 12:42:22 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1455 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Use a automatic, fixed-saize array
1456 instead of alloca() --- alloca is not portable! Check to
1457 make sure the filename is not longer than EXT2_NAME_LEN,
1458 and offer to fix it by truncating it, since it should
1461 * e2fsck.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
1462 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
1463 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
1464 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
1467 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot): Use malloc() instead of
1468 alloca() --- alloca() is not portable!!!
1470 Tue Jul 18 20:04:02 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1472 * pass1b.c (pass1c):
1473 * pass3.c (check_root, get_lost_and_found):
1474 * pass2.c (check_dir_block): Use ext2fs_{read,write}_dir_block
1475 to read/write the directory block.
1477 Mon Jul 17 04:00:56 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1479 * util.c (ask_yn): Apply patch supplied by Peter A. Zaitcev to
1480 make sure VMIN and VTIME are set correct.
1482 Fri Jul 14 19:26:29 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1484 * pass1.c (mark_block_used): Change to be an inline function.
1485 Assume that the block validity checks are already done,
1486 and use the fast variant of the bitmap functions.
1488 Thu Jul 13 08:10:55 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1490 * pass5.c (check_block_bitmaps, check_inode_bitmaps): Check the
1491 bounds of the bitmaps in advance, and then use the fast
1492 variant of e2fs_test_{block,inode}_bitmap.
1494 * pass1.c (mark_block_used): Use ext2_fast_mark_block_bitmap since
1495 the bounds checking has already been done earlier.
1497 Wed Jul 12 02:22:46 1995 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1499 * pass1.c (pass1): Allocate and free the block_illegal_map, which
1500 is used for shortcut processing in process_block.
1501 (mark_table_blocks): Initialize block_illegal_map with the
1503 (describe_illegal_block): New helper function that
1504 describes why a block is illegal.
1505 (process_block): Use block_illegal_map as a shortcut
1506 to determine whether a block is bad. Use
1507 describe_illegal_block to print out why the block is illegal.
1509 Mon Jun 12 19:11:06 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
1511 * flushb.c: Don't include <linux/fs.h> if it doesn't exist.
1513 * scantest.c: Don't include <linux/fs.h>, <getopt.h>, or
1514 <mntent.h> if they don't exist. (Mostly so that "make
1517 * pass1.c, pass1b.c, pass3.c, badblocks.c: Include <errno.h> (if
1520 * e2fsck.c, scantest.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't
1523 Mon Jun 12 08:37:49 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1525 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode, check_for_zero_long,
1526 check_for_zero_char): Change long to u32, and char to u8.
1528 Sun Jun 11 15:05:57 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1530 * util.c (inode_has_valid_blocks):
1531 * pass2.c (process_bad_inode):
1532 * pass1.c (pass1, check_blocks, pass1_check_directory): Use
1533 LINUX_S_IS* instead of S_IS*.
1535 * e2fsck.h: Don't #include <sys/stat.h>
1537 * flushb.c (main): Add #ifdef BLKFLSBUF around ioctl. (Although
1538 this program is pretty much useless if BLKFLSBUF isn't
1541 * e2fsck.c, badblocks.c: Add #include <errno.h>, since errno is
1544 Thu Jun 8 12:31:19 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1546 * pass2.c (check_dot, check_dotdot, check_dir_block): Use alloca
1547 to allocate space for file names instead of using fixed size buffers.
1548 (process_bad_inode): Only check inode frag fields if
1549 HAVE_EXT2_FRAGS is defined (by configure).
1550 * pass1.c (pass1): Only check the inode frag fields if
1551 HAVE_EXT2_FRAGS is defined (by configure).
1553 * e2fsck.c (check_mount): Only check for a mounted filesystem if
1554 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1555 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1556 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1557 (PRS): Only support the -F (flush) option if the BLKFLSBUF ioctl
1560 * e2fsck.h: Only include <linux/fs.h> if HAVE_LINUX_FS_H is
1561 defined (by configure).
1563 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1564 support separate compilation directories.
1566 Thu Apr 6 15:04:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj.ibp.fr>
1568 * pass1.c (pass1): Test the mode in reserved inodes (must be zero).
1570 Sat Mar 11 13:12:16 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
1572 * pass1.c (unwind_pass1): Clear the file type statistics counter
1573 when pass 1 needs to be restarted from scratch.
1575 * pass1.c (handle_fs_bad_blocks): Fix bug where bitmap blocks were
1576 being reallocated to blocks in the next block group,
1577 instead of the current block grup.
1579 * pass1.c (pass1, check_blocks): Set inode_link_info[ino] whenever
1580 inode.i_links_count is set.
1582 Tue Feb 14 01:38:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1584 * pass1.c (process_block): Add checks for if the block is
1585 trepassing on a superblock or group descriptor table.
1587 Sat Dec 31 00:52:11 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1589 * main.c (corrupt_msg): Extend the message which is printed out
1590 when the superblock is corrupt, to include the suggestion
1591 of using the -b option to specify an alternate superblock.
1593 Thu Nov 24 09:29:58 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1595 * badblocks.c (read_bad_blocks_file): If we are adding or
1596 replacing bad blocks in the bad blocks inode, sanity check
1597 the bad block inode first, and clear out any illegal blocks.
1599 * pass2.c (check_name): Don't bomb out if the attempt to get the
1600 pathname of the containing directory returns an error; the
1601 directory may be too badly damaged to expect that
1602 ext2fs_get_pathname will always succeed. Use "???" if the
1603 pathname can't be obtained (it's only for a printf to the
