1 1999-11-04 <tytso@valinux.com>
3 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
4 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
5 fsck -As can do so interactively.
7 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
9 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.17
11 1999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
13 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
14 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
15 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
17 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
18 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
19 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
20 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
22 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
23 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
24 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
27 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
28 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
29 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
30 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
33 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
34 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
36 1999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
38 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
40 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
41 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
42 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
44 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
45 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
48 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
50 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
52 1999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
54 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
55 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
56 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
57 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
59 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
60 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
61 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that
62 have both file type information and sparse superblocks.
64 1999-10-21 <tytso@valinux.com>
66 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
67 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
68 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
69 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
70 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
72 1999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
74 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
75 changing the sparse superblock option
77 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
78 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
79 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
82 1999-09-15 <tytso@valinux.com>
84 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
85 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
87 1999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
89 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
92 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
95 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
96 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
99 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
102 1999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
104 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
107 1999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
109 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
111 1999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
113 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
114 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
115 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
116 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
117 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
118 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
119 the filesystem the system would make.
121 1999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
123 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
124 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
125 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
126 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
127 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
129 1999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
131 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
132 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
133 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
135 1999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
137 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
138 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
140 1999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
142 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
143 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
144 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
145 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
146 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
147 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
149 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
150 UUID=bar type specifications.
152 1999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
154 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
155 clear out a large block number.
157 1999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
159 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
160 appears mounted if the force option is given.
162 1999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
164 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
165 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
167 1999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
169 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
172 1999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
174 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
175 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
176 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
177 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
179 1999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
181 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
184 1999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
186 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
187 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
189 1999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
191 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
192 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
193 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
194 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
196 1999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
198 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
199 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
200 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
201 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
202 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
203 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
205 1999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
207 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
208 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
209 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
211 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
212 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
215 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
217 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
219 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

227 needs to be treated as zero.
229 1999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
231 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow the user to specify exactly how many
232 inodes he/she wishes.
234 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
235 program if the -V option is given.
237 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
240 1999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
242 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
243 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
245 (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the
246 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
248 1998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
250 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
251 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.

255 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.13
257 1998-12-07 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
259 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
260 seperated", instead of common separated)
262 1998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
264 * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
266 1998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
268 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
269 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
270 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
272 1998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
274 * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff.
276 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10

318 1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
320 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
321 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
322 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
323 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
324 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
326 1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
328 * e2label.8.in: New man page to document the e2label function.

337 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
340 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that
341 labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will
344 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
345 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
346 that the label will be truncated.
348 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
349 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
350 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
352 1998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
354 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Fixed spelling typo in warning

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