(Addresses Debian bug #174766) + +Added a new shared library, the blkid library, which efficiently +allows fsck, mke2fs, e2fsck, and tune2fs to be able to look up LABEL +and UUID filesystem specifiers without needing to search all of the +devices in the system. Instead, the device is looked up in a cache +file, and then verified to make sure the blkid cache is correct. + +Tune2fs and e2label will accept LABEL=xxx and UID=yyy specifiers for +the device name, using the blkid library. (Addresses Debian bugs +#166048, #179671) + +Fsck now supports backslash escapes in /etc/fstab so that \040 can be +used for spaces in device labels. + +Removed 32-bit limitations for debugfs's dump command. + +If the user specifies a large number of inodes, Mke2fs will +automatically adjust the number of blocks per group to find a valid +set of filesystem parameters. + +Add workaround to detect broken MD devices where when some of the +underlying devices are marked read-only, writes to the MD device are +silently dropped. E2fsck will detect if there is an attempt to run +the journal twice, and abort with an error if this is the case. +(Addresses IBM Bugzilla bug #1226) + +E2fsck will print an error if more than one of the -p/-a, -n or -y +options are specified. + +E2fsck will fix HTREE corruptions in preen mode, without stopping the +boot process. This is needed because the 2.4 ext2 filesystem +accidentally had the INDEX_FL backwards compatibility code removed. + +Mke2fs no longer creates filesystems with the dir_index flag set by +default; the user has to specifically request it. + +Update and clarified various man pages. (Addresses Debian bugs +#173612, #175233, #175113, and #170497) + +Programmer's notes: +------------------- + +Fix various gcc -Wall nits. + +Fixed a lot of portability problems that caused e2fsprogs not to build +successfully under Solaris. + +Changes to create a subset distribution which consists only of the +et, ss, uuid, and blkid libraries. The configure script and top-level +makefile were changed to support working with a subset distribution. + + E2fsprogs 1.32 (Nomvember 9, 2002) ================================== @@ -12,6 +70,7 @@ small amount of CPU time.
