47 * f_dup_de, r_resize_inode: change ">& /dev/null" to ">/dev/null 2>&1"
48 for compatibility with FreeBSD. In $DEBUGFS commands, move the
49 -R arg argument first so that systems with non-GNU getopt()
50 can see the request argument (they would otherwise stop
51 parsing at the first non-option argument).
53 2004-12-24 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
55 * f_resize_inode, r_resize_inode: New tests to e2fsck and
56 resize2fs, which exercise their resize_inode handling and

65 account the resize inode patch.
67 2004-10-04 Richard Mortimer <richm@oldelvet.org.uk>
69 * f_badjourblks: Add test case which tests a Journal with illegal
70 block numbers in both the journal inode and the superblock
73 2004-09-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
75 * test_script.in: Remove XSI:isms for greater portability.

112 2003-08-20 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
114 * f_bad_local_jnl, f_badorphan, f_h_badroot, f_h_reindex,
115 f_special_ea: Update tests to reflect that e2fsck will
116 backup the journal inode.
118 * f_journal: Change test to include a backed up journal location
119 in the superblock, and then corrupt the inode table so the
120 journal inode is trashed. Make sure e2fsck can recover
123 2003-08-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
125 * f_salveage_dir: Remove HTREE flag from the test image's
126 superblock. (It is not needed).
128 * f_h_reindex: Skip this test of the htree is not enabled
130 * f_dup_de: If htree is not enabled, clear the htree flag, and use
131 alternate expect scripts for the test.
133 2003-07-25 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
135 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.34
137 2003-04-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
139 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.33
141 2003-04-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
143 * test_config: Define DYLD_LIBRAY_PATH so that "make check" works on
144 Darwin systems when building with shared libraries.
146 2003-04-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
148 * f_baddir, f_dup, f_dup2, f_end-bitmap, f_lpf: Update test cases
149 to deal with changes to automatically calculate and update
150 the global inode and block counts at the beginning of the
153 2003-03-25 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
155 * f_h_badnode, f_h_badroot, f_h_reindex: Updated expect script to
156 remove the optimizing directories message.
158 2003-03-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

162 2003-03-06 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
164 * run_e2fsck, defaults/e_script: Solaris doesn't support "tr -d \r",
165 so use "tr -d \015" instead.
167 * tests/f_swapfs/script: Avoid bash'ism; Solaris doesn't support
168 put a ! character in a "if ! cmd ; then .. fi" construct.
170 2002-11-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

249 * f_lotsbad: Check for directory too big error message.
251 * f_big_sparse: New test case which e2fsck's response to a large,
252 sparse file, and tests the code which adds the LARGE_FILE
253 feature to a filesystem.
255 * f_badsymlinks, f_filetype: Revert expected text since we're no
256 longer checking for EXT2_INDEX_FL along with the other
259 * f_badsymlinks, f_badinode: The symlink invalid size problem text
260 has been generalized to "invalid symlink".
262 2002-05-18 Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com>
264 * f_badsymlink: Add extra length checks for symlinks
265 - missing nul termination test (new)
266 - nul terminated but i_size is wrong
267 - i_size == maximum size (no space for nul, new)
268 - too many blocks for long symlink
270 2002-03-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
272 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.27
274 2002-03-07 <tytso@mit.edu>

285 ranges during pass 5.
287 2002-02-12 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
289 * run_e2fsck (status): Use separate sed invocations for greater
290 portabilty. AIX's sed doesn't support multiple -e
291 specifications, even though it's required by Unix 98.
293 * test_script.in: Use printf instead of "echo -n", since the -n
294 option to echo is a BSD'ism which isn't specified by the
295 Unix 98 / SUSv3 specification. (And which of course, AIX
296 doesn't implement as a result.)
298 2002-02-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>

310 testcase for e2fsck with an empty 8MB filesystem. After
311 the test filesystem is appropriately "broken" the new
312 target "make testend" will create expect files for it.
314 2001-12-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
316 * f_ext_journal: Add new test which checks e2fsck's ability to use
319 2001-11-30 Gabriel Paubert <paubert@iram.es>

329 2001-11-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
331 * f_miss_blk_bmap: Add new test which checks for bug in e2fsck
332 where it wouldn't allocate a missing block bitmap on
333 filesystems with a blocksize of 2k or 4k.
335 2001-10-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu>
337 * f_bad_local_jnl: New test which tests for a V2 journal with bad
338 fields caused by a botched V1->V2 upgrade.
340 2001-09-20 Theodore Tso <tytso@thunk.org>
342 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.25

358 * f_bad_inode, f_badsymlinks: Update expect files to reflect
359 changes in the problem code texts.
361 * f_swapfs: The image file used by f_swapfs had bugs which got
362 caught by Andreas' changes to be more strict about
365 2001-07-26 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>
367 * f_symlinks: Add several fast symlink error cases to test.
369 2001-07-27 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
371 * f_filetype: Update expect.1 to match changed problem message
372 text and the fact that symlinks shouldn't be immutable.
374 2001-07-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
376 * f_badinode: Update expect.1 to match change in invalid symlink
379 2001-06-23 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

383 2001-06-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
385 * run_e2fsck, defaults/e_script: Filter out CR characters from the
386 output, since BK filtered \r fromthe expect files. This
387 is needed to make the regression test suite work again.
389 2001-06-15 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
391 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.21
393 2001-06-02 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
395 * f_badinode: Added a fast symlink with an invalid size to test
396 e2fsck's handling of this case.
398 * f_dup3: New test case which checks handling of blocks claimed
399 multiple times by one inode which weren't handled
400 correctly by e2fsck 1.20.
402 * d_loaddump: Fix test script to remove bash'isms, and make the
403 shell script more robust in cases where the user has
404 overridden CFLAGS so that the debugfs binary isn't
405 compiled with -g, and is smaller than 128k. Also specify
406 the blocksize to be used explictly to avoid problems with
407 people who change the mke2fs default parameters.
409 2001-05-25 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
411 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.20
413 2001-05-14 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>

430 * f_journal: Make the test check for a wide variety of mixed sizes
431 of orphaned inodes (and not just a size of 0).

438 * f_journal: New test case which checks out running the ext3
441 * f_orphan: New test case which checks clearing the list of orphan
442 inodes (files and directories).
444 * f_swapfs/expect: Update to reflect new debugfs format for
445 dumping the blocks of an inode.
447 2000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
449 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
451 2000-05-25 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
453 * test_script.in: Ignore files in the test directory (to avoid
454 spurious messages when builddir==srcdir).
456 2000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
458 * f_hurd: Add test for Hurd-specific features (right now, just
459 checks to make sure the filetype feature is cleared)
461 2000-04-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
463 * f_filetype: Updated expect script to match with new text for
464 immutable/append-only files.

478 an non-imagic-enabled filessystem.
480 * f_imagic_fs: New test case which tests handling of imagic inodes
481 in an imagic-enabled filesystem.
483 * f_filetype: New test case which tests setting filetype
484 information in a filesystem. Also tests handling of
485 immutable special files (device/fifo).
487 * run_e2fsck: Add support for PREP_CMD, which allows a test case
488 to specify some commands which will be run (via eval)
489 after the image is compressed and before running e2fsck.

503 1999-09-07 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
505 * f_expand: Make test case better by testing increasing the size
506 of lost+found where an indirect block must be created.
507 Also add checks to see what happens when directories are
508 disconnected because their containing directory is
509 destroyed (turned into a socket :-)
511 1999-08-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
513 * f_dupfsblks: Add additional test cases where files share
514 duplicate blocks with both other files and filesystem
517 1999-07-30 <tytso@valinux.com>
519 * f_swapfs: Change to deal with new dump_inode command.
521 1999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
523 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
525 1999-06-25 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
527 * f_recnect_bad: New test which checks the case where a disconnect
528 inode also bad inode fields; we need to make sure e2fsck
529 offers to fix the inode (or clear the inode, as necessary).
531 1999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
533 * f_lpffile: New test which checks how e2fsck handles a the case
534 where lost+found exists, but it's not a directory.
536 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
538 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14
540 1998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

544 1998-12-04 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
546 * f_badtable, f_illitable, f_lpf: Update to deal with the fact
547 that e2fsck will now create a lost+found directory at the

562 64-bit size files. (/MAKEDEV had i_dir_acl, now
565 1998-02-20 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@edt.mit.edu>
567 * f_badinode: Set the immutable flag on the block and
568 character device so that e2fsck notices them as bad
569 devices, and offers to fix them. E2fsck currently
570 only checks devices with the immutable flag set, since
571 otherwise there might be some false positives --- the
572 kernel doesn't always clear the all of i_blocks[n],
573 n>=4, due to a race condition.
575 Sat Oct 25 18:38:56 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
577 * Add scripts to skip the e_brel_bma and e_irel_ima tests (since
