1 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
3 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
4 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
5 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
7 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
8 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
9 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
10 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
12 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
13 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
14 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
17 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
18 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
19 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
20 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
23 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
24 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
26 1999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
28 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
30 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
31 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
32 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
34 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
35 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
38 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
40 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
42 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
44 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
45 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
46 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
47 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
49 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
50 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
51 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
52 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
54 1999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
56 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
57 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
58 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
59 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
60 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
62 1999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
64 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
65 changing the sparse superblock option
67 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
68 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
69 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
72 1999-09-15 <tytso@valinux.com>
74 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
75 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
77 1999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
79 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
82 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
85 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
86 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
89 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
92 1999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
94 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
97 1999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
99 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
101 1999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
103 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
104 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
105 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
106 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
107 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
108 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
109 the filesystem the system would make.
111 1999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
113 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
114 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
115 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
116 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
117 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
119 1999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
121 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
122 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
123 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
125 1999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
127 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
128 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
130 1999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
132 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
133 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
134 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
135 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
136 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
137 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
139 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
140 UUID=bar type specifications.
142 1999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
144 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
145 clear out a large block number.
147 1999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
149 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
150 appears mounted if the force option is given.
152 1999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
154 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
155 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
157 1999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
159 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
162 1999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
164 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
165 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
166 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
167 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
169 1999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
171 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
174 1999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
176 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
177 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
179 1999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
181 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
182 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
183 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
184 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
186 1999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
188 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
189 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
190 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
191 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
192 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
193 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
195 1999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
197 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
198 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
199 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
201 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
202 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
205 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
207 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
209 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

217 needs to be treated as zero.
219 1999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
221 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow the user to specify exactly how many
222 inodes he/she wishes.
224 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
225 program if the -V option is given.
227 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
230 1999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
232 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
233 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
235 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
236 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
238 1998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
240 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
241 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.

245 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.13
247 1998-12-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
249 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
250 seperated", instead of common separated)
252 1998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
254 * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
256 1998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
258 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
259 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
260 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
262 1998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
264 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
266 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
267 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
268 things look nice on an 80 character display.

305 * fsck.c (ignore): Remove check for filesystems with the noauto
308 1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
310 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
311 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
312 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
313 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
314 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
316 1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
318 * e2label.8.in: New man page to document the e2label function.

325 only be set or cleared by the superuser.
327 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
330 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that
331 labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will
334 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
335 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
336 that the label will be truncated.
338 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
339 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
340 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
342 1998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
344 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Fixed spelling typo in warning

499 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables
500 where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop.
501 This caused the inode table to not be correctly
504 Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
506 * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy().

580 and no version number is specified.
582 Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
584 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
586 Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
588 * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2
591 Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
593 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
595 Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
597 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
598 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
600 Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
602 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.
604 * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode
607 Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
609 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
610 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
611 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
612 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
613 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
614 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
615 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
616 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
619 Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
621 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
623 Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
625 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
626 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
629 Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
631 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
632 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
633 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
634 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
635 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
637 Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
639 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
642 Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
644 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
645 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
647 Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
649 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
651 Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
653 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
654 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
655 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
657 Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
659 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
662 Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
664 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
665 function to determine if the device is mounted.
667 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
668 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
669 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
670 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
672 Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
674 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
675 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
676 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
679 Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
688 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
690 Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
692 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
693 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
694 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
697 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
699 Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
701 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
702 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(¶m), instead of assuming that the
703 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
705 Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
707 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
708 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
709 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
710 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
713 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
714 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
715 alloca is not portable!
717 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
718 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
721 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
723 Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
725 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
728 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
730 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
731 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
733 Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
735 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
736 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
738 Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
740 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
742 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
743 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
745 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
747 Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
749 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
750 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
751 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
752 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
754 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
755 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
756 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
757 statically sized buffer.
758 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
759 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
761 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
762 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
763 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
764 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
765 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
767 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
768 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
769 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
770 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
773 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
774 support separate compilation directories.
776 Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
778 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
779 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
780 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
781 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
783 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
784 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
785 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
786 very large partition.
788 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
789 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
790 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
792 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
793 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
794 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
795 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
796 ioctl, which most do.)
798 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
799 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
800 during 0.5b development.)
802 Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
804 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
805 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
806 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
807 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
810 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
811 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
812 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
814 Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
816 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
818 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
819 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
820 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
822 Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
824 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
826 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
828 Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
830 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
831 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
832 all partitions should be checked.
834 Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
836 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap
839 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by
842 Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
844 * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options:
845 -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid.
847 Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
849 * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem.
851 Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
853 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
856 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
858 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
860 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
862 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
864 (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available.
866 Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
868 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
869 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
870 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
871 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
872 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
874 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
875 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
876 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
877 statistics if necessary.
