+2001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
+ use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
+
+2001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
+ interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
+ and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
+ default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
+ a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
+ with the rest of the options out there.)
+
+ * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
+ external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
+ from the external journal's filesystem list.
+
+ * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
+ Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
+ given a filesystem size.
+
+ * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
+ small as 1MB.
+
+ * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
+ to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
+
+2001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
+ adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
+ created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
+
+ * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
+ using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
+ changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
+ simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
+ have been created via separate step.
+
+ * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
+ information about an external journal device.
+
+2001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
+ for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
+ 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
+ has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
+ 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
+ filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
+ the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
+ of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
+
+ * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
+
+ * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
+ stdout after printing in-progress message.
+ (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
+ the mount status of the device.
+
+2001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
+ uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
+ tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
+ the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
+ logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
+
+ * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
+ flush the device.
+
+ * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
+
+2001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
+ using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
+ (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
+
+2001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
+ prototype.
+
+ * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
+ portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
+ complaints.
+
+ * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
+
+ * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
+ an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
+
+2001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
+ functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
+ while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
+ a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
+
+ * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
+ check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
+ Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
+
+ * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
+ ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
+
+2001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
+ struct ext2_super_block.
+
+ * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
+ cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
+ mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
+ ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
+ for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
+ using our own version now).
+
+2000-12-31 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
+ UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
+ can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
+ filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
+ the parallel_root option.
+
+ * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
+ the file attributes.
+
+ * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
+ flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
+
+ * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
+ decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
+ support for the journaled data flag.
+
+ * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
+
+2000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
+
+ * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
+ (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
+
+2000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
+ names.
+
+ * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
+ base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
+ instead of core dumping.
+
+2000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
+ superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
+ journal creation routines for this purpose.
+
+ * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
+ executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
+
+ * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
+ get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
+
+2000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
+ base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
+ memory.
+
+ * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
+ now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
+
+ * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
+
+2000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
+ of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
+ #63442)
+
+ * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
+ console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
+ so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
+ fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
+ #65267)
+
+ * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
+ group names to uid's before storing them in the
+ superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
+
+2000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
+ option=argument style options, and add support for
+ creating filesystems with external journals.
+
+ * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
+
+2000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
+ a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
+
+2000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
+ handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
+ at this point.)
+
+ * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
+ character labels.
+
+ * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
+ devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
+ other devices.
+
+ * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
+ option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
+ journal.
+
+2000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
+ didn't catch.
+
+2000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
+ systems with four IDE interfaces.
+
+2000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
+ fails.
+
+ * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
+ the inode table location in non-hex format.
+
+2000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
+ we can't find the device using the name given by
+ /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
+ into the kernel, but not mounted.)
+
+2000-06-27 Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolabs.com>
+
+ * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
+ to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
+ location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
+
+ * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
+
+2000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
+ zap_sect.
+ (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
+ avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
+
+2000-07-26 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
+ fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
+
+2000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
+
+2000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
+
+ * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
+ are mutually exclusive.
+
+ * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
+ block count must be specified if the starting block is to
+ be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
+ the long run.)
+
+ * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
+ variable before going into the write verification loop.
+ This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
+ on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
+ while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
+ num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
+ clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
+ longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
+ routines anymore.
+
+ * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
+ Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
+ to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
+ the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
+ format string.
+
+2000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
+ fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
+ the progress bar display logic.
+
+ * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
+ max_mount_count is negative.
+
+ * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
+ negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
+ check.
+
+ * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
+ for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
+ privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
+ Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
+ removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
+ LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
+
+ * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
+ is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
+ test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
+
+ * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
+ blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
+ document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
+ for the -f option.
+
+ * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
+ optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
+ device as a default.
+
+2000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
+ it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
+ potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
+ old, overly complicated logic.
+ (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
+ always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
+ safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
+
+2000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
+ filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
+ size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
+ argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
+
+2000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
+ or LABEL= specification is given.
+
+ * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
+ the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
+ (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
+ to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
+ that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
+ feature for the forseeable future, either.)
+
+ * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
+ proceed_question that was busted due to the
+ internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
+ proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
+ cleared of the previous question's newline.
+
+Thu Apr 6 17:50:25 2000 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@signal.thunk.org>
+
+ * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
+ support fdatasync().
+
+2000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
+ uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
+ manually define optarg and optind.
+
+ * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
+ Beattie.
+
+ * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
+ now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
+ longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
+ (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
+
+ * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
+ mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
+ address.
+ chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
+
+2000-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * chattr.1.in:
+ * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
+
+ * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
+
+ * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
+
+ * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
+ blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
+
+ * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
+ Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
+ #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
+ file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
+ the same flag.
+
+ * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
+ The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
+ Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.
+
+2000-02-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
+ fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
+ mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
+ uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
+ suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
+
+ * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
+ Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
+ removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
+ clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
+ code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
+ was interrupted at the wrong time.)
+
+ * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
+
+2000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
+ a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
+ and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
+ readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
+ perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
+
+ * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
+ linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
+
+ * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h
+
+2000-01-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
+
+ * tune2fs.c (usage): Update the usage message to correctly
+ document the -s option.
+
2000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
* badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
