1999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the fsck pass structure. (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs to finish. 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs 1.14 1999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.8.in: Clarified and expanded the documentation for the -A switch. 1999-01-07 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it needs to be treated as zero. 1999-01-05 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (PRS): Allow the user to specify exactly how many inodes he/she wishes. * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the program if the -V option is given. * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent through a directory. 1999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the /etc/fstab file. (execute): In verbose mode, print the mountpount of the filesystem which we are checking (user request). 1998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files. 1998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs 1.13 1998-12-07 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_ seperated", instead of common separated) 1998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies. 1998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly. 1998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o * tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor display bug in the nroff. * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that things look nice on an 80 character display. 1998-10-12 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (usage): Add the sparse-super-flag to the usage message. 1998-07-09 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs 1.12 1998-07-04 Theodore Ts'o * findsuper.c (main): Print the block group number which is now being written by e2fsprogs. 1998-06-25 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (ignore): Remove unused variable cp. * chattr.c (fatal_error): * tune2fs.c (usage): * lsattr.c (usage): * dumpe2fs.c (usage): * badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration. * fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is, it isn't pretty.) 1998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number and exit. 1998-05-14 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (ignore): Remove check for filesystems with the noauto option. 1998-03-30 Theodore Ts'o * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the cat directory in /usr/man/cat?. 1998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o * e2label.8.in: New man page to document the e2label function. * e2label.c: Fix -Wall warning by making functions static. 1998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o * chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may only be set or cleared by the superuser. * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is up-to-date. * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that labels must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will be truncated. * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating that the label will be truncated. * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed. 1998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Fixed spelling typo in warning message. Fixed up -Wall warnings in file. Sun Mar 8 22:21:48 1998 Theodore Ts'o * partinfo.c (main): The ioctl BLKGETSIZE requires a long, not an int. Sun Feb 1 16:53:36 1998 Theodore Ts'o * badblocks.8: Update documentation to note that output format of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or mke2fs -l. * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the first one). Mon Dec 1 17:01:04 1997 Theodore Ts'o * badblocks.8.in: Add documentation for the -s option. Fri Oct 24 23:37:52 1997 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c: * chattr.c: Remove #include of getopt.h, since it's not needed. * tune2fs.c (main): * lsattr.c (main): * badblocks.c (main): * dumpe2fs.c (main): * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the variable which getopt returns into be an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is unsigned. Fri Oct 3 13:38:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (parse_raid_opts): Make parse_raid_opts return a void, to fix a -Wall warning. Mon Sep 15 22:07:12 1997 Theodore Ts'o * tune2fs.c (main): * mklost+found.c (main): * lsattr.c (main): * dumpe2fs.c (main): * chattr.c (main): * badblocks.c (main): Declare main to return an int, as required. Make sure main always ends with an exit(0). (Some programs weren't doing this, and thus were returning a random exit value.) Mon Jul 14 15:27:29 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o * e2label.c: New file contributed by Andries Brouwer which provides an easy-to-use interface to modify the filesystem label. * Makefile.in (SPROGS): Add Makefile support to build e2label Tue Jun 17 01:33:20 1997 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs 1.11 Mon Jun 16 23:37:54 1997 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Adjust the number of columns printed when displaying the superblock backups to avoid running over 80 columns when making a really big disk. Thu May 8 22:22:08 1997 Theodore Ts'o * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, fsck.8.in, mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Fix minor typos and grammer oops found by Bill Hawes (whawes@star.net). * mke2fs.c (test_disk): Pass the blocksize to the bad blocks command so that all of the filesystem gets tested in the case where the blocksize 2048 or 4096. Thu Apr 24 12:16:42 1997 Theodre Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10 Thu Apr 24 09:52:47 1997 Theodre Ts'o * mke2fs.c: Added new option -R, which specifies RAID options. Currently the only supported RAID option is "stride" which specifies the stripe width in RAID filesystem. This is used to aid in the placement of the inode and block bitmaps. * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Added warnings that the sparse superblock option isn't yet supported by most kernels. Wed Apr 23 22:42:51 1997 Theodre Ts'o * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the default filesystem revision be 0, not 1. (Since some people are still worried about 1.2.13 compatibility). Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.09 Fri Apr 11 18:57:24 1997 Theodore Ts'o * chattr.1.in: Updated man page so that the 'A' attribute is specified everywhere. * chattr.c (usage): Added usage message for the 'A' attribute. Fri Apr 11 18:56:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.08 Thu Apr 10 07:08:03 1997 Theodore Ts'o * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): List the offsets of the inode and block bitmaps, and the inode table. List the block boundaries for the groups. Sat Apr 5 11:55:52 1997 Theodore Ts'o * tune2fs.c (main): Implement the -s flag allows the user to set and reset the sparse superblock flag. * mke2fs.c (PRS): By default generate DYNAMIC revision filesystems. The -s flag controls whether or not the sparse superblock flag is set. (PRS): Change to allow the user to specify the true maximum number of blocks per group to reflect the blocksize. Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.07 Thu Mar 6 17:15:05 1997 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Set the root directory's i_uid and i_gid to be the real user and group id. Tue Mar 4 10:14:33 1997 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add more intelligent error messages when the device doesn't exist. Sat Mar 1 10:43:32 1997 Theodore Ts'o * fsck.c (main): Fix bug where the PATH environment variable isn't set when it is unset. Tue Jan 14 12:30:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop. This caused the inode table to not be correctly initialized. Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy(). * findsuper.c: Use time_t for ctime(), not __u32. Sat Dec 28 23:39:18 1996 Theodore Ts'o * badblocks.c: Adapted -vv modifications from Rik Faith so that they frequently update the block number field. * badblocks.8.in: Document the optional start-block parameter Mon Oct 14 11:52:58 1996 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c: Updated to use new ext2fs_allocate_tables() function. Tue Oct 8 02:02:03 1996 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.06 Mon Oct 7 00:56:24 1996 Theodore Ts'o * chattr.1.in: Documented the 'A' (noatime) attribute. * dumpe2fs.c (main): Change EXT2_SWAP to EXT2_FLAG_SWAP for consistency's sake. Sun Sep 22 16:18:47 1996 Theodore Ts'o * chattr.c (decode_arg): Add support for the 'A' (noatime) flag. Thu Sep 12 15:23:07 1996 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.05 Sat Sep 7 07:34:11 1996 Theodore Ts'o * tune2fs.c (main): Add support for new option -C, which sets the current number of mounts. (main): Allow the interval to be specified in seconds, mostly for debugging. Tue Aug 27 17:27:43 1996 Miles Bader * Makefile.in (SMANPAGES): Use @FSCK_MAN@ instead of fsck.8. (SPROGS): Use @FSCK_PROG@ instead of fsck. Thu Aug 22 00:51:44 1996 Theodore Ts'o * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a sparc. Tue Aug 20 00:15:46 1996 Theodore Ts'o * chattr.c (main): Fixed bug so that chattr -v works. (Bug report and fix sent by Charles Howes, chowes@eznet.ca) Fri Aug 9 11:52:42 1996 Theodore Ts'o * tune2fs.8.in: * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume label, the -M option which sets the last mounted directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID. * mke2fs.8.in: * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets the volume label, and the -M option which sets the last mounted directory. Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used and no version number is specified. Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04 Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2 libraries. Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03 Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem. Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page. * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode revision. Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the parallel root option. This allows you to check the root filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note that this is not the safest thing in the world to do, since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this option turned on. Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02 Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda vs. /dev/hda1) Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch submitted by Mike Jagdis) Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to ext2fs_test_bit(). Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases. Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed. Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(), so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted *before* we try to determine the size of the device. Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in the same order. Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted() function to determine if the device is mounted. * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called. Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has specified exactly one type before using it as the type to check. Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card * badblocks.8: * chattr.1: * dumpe2fs.8: * fsck.8: * lsattr.1: * mke2fs.8: * mklost+found.8: * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number. Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe ANDRE . * mke2fs.8: * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-) Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(¶m), instead of assuming that the blocksize is always 1024 bytes. Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory; passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not advisable. * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca is not portable! * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the user using the -t option, let it override the type in /etc/fstab. * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it. Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl) * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include for 's benefit. * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin. * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Don't include if it doesn't exist. Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined. Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined, explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL. * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader * mke2fs.c: Only include if we can. (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined. (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure). * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure). (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a statically sized buffer. (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway). * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer. * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto. * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have). * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them. (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code. (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs(). (test_rw): Ditto. * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and support separate compilation directories. Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem. * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a very large partition. * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device, spurious seek errors aren't reported. * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE ioctl, which most do.) * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at during 0.5b development.) Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch measure). Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.) Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed. * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to extract the exit status. In other cases, return FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal. Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the new options. Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval. Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11) * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that all partitions should be checked. Sat Nov 12 00:33:18 1994 (tytso@rsx-11) * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Update to new inode and block bitmap structures. * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Create the root directory owned by the effective uid. Mon Nov 7 22:04:37 1994 Remy Card * tune2fs.c (main.c): Added support for new options: -r reserved_blocks_count, -g reserved_gid, -u reserved_uid. Sun Aug 21 00:57:33 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11) * fsck.c (ignore): If the pass number is 0, ignore the filesystem. Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj) * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the read-only test. (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available. * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes. * lsattr.c: Added support for long format. * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message. (valid_offset): Use the llseek system call if available. Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11) * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so, print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.) (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor statistics if necessary.
