535 * E2fsck no longer issues some harmless bitmap warnings caused by a
536 corrupted file system; since those corruptions will be fixed up by
537 e2fsck later, there's no point issuing these internal warnings.
538 * E2fsck will now notice invalid quota inode numbers, and offer to fix

947 feature flag to determine whether it is safe to enable lazy
948 inode table initialization, so it won't get faked out if the ext4 is
949 compiled as a module which hasn't happened to be loaded yet.

951 which is in the future in preen mode.

985 * New upstream version
986 * The mke2fs program no longer requires a force (-F) option when
987 when creating a file system in a regular file, since this is a very
988 common use case when managing virtual machine images
989 * The mke2fs program will now ask for confirmation before wiping out a
990 pre-existing file system, partition label, or physical volume
991 * Fix e2fsck so that it properly handles an inconsistent quota inode.
992 Previously the quota inode could be completely corrupted, and
993 missing quota records could be not noticed
994 * Fix mke2fs so if packed metadata blocks are enabled that the block
995 group checksum are set correctly
996 * Debugfs has new commands to allow the quota inode to be queried directly

999 * Fixed some off-line resize2fs bugs when relocating metadata blocks
1000 when growing or shrinking bigalloc file systems
1001 * Fixed resize2fs's calculation of the minimum required file system
1002 size. This allows resize2fs -M to shrink the file system more
1004 * Fixed resize2fs to properly handle shrinking a very large and empty
1005 file system to a very very small size
1006 * Fixed e4defrag to work with 64-bit and bigalloc file systems
1007 * Fixed e2fsck to not issue a large number of very scary (but
1008 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
1009 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
1010 since January 1, 1970.
1011 * E2fsck will now check the whole file system if file system problems
1012 are detected during its initial "pass 0" sanity check
1013 * Filefrag now prints the "shared extent" flag which is used by some
1014 file systems such as btrfs
1015 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
1016 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was
1017 determined automatically. It will now also do the right thing when
1018 the user explicitly specifies the file system size.

1125 blocks aren't left outside the bounds of the shrunken file system.
1126 This could happen with flex_bg file systems that were grown using

1164 that it properly handles this situation instead of crashing.
1165 * E2fsck will now report the amount of memory that it attempted to
1166 allocate when a memory allocation request fails, to make it easier to
1167 track down the problem.
1168 * Fixed a bug in resize2fs which could cause severe file system
1169 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
1170 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks

1172 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
1173 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
1174 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
1175 resizing very large file systems.

1802 * Update and clarify various man pages.
1803 * Corrected dumpe2fs's usage message
1804 * Teach libext2fs to ignore the high 32 bits of the i_blocks field
1805 when huge_file file system feature is set, but the inode does not
1806 have the HUGE_FILE_FL flag set.
1807 * Change e2fsck to accept superblock times to be fudged by up to 24
1808 hours by default. Most distributions have fixed their init scripts,
1809 but apparently now they have buggy virtualization scripts. :-( I
1810 give up, too many buggy user space set ups out there. (Closes: #557636)
1811 * Fix e2fsck to correctly print > 32-bit i_blocks numbers in problem reports
1812 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of

1822 flex_bg is enabled, to prevent resize2fs -M from failing.
1823 * Dumpe2fs now displays more information about the contents of the journal
1824 * Make sure the libblkid1 and libblkid1-dbg packages have changelogs
1825 * On low memory systems, e2fsck can print some very scary looking
1826 error messages. Clean up them up to avoid user panic. (Closes: #509529)
1827 * Enhance blkid to support .ko.gz files in the modules.dep parser
1828 * Fix tune2fs -j for mounted exted-enabled file systems
1829 * Use the feature name "extent" instead of "extents" in mke2fs.conf.

1837 * New upstream release
1838 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
1839 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
1840 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
1841 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
1842 table needs to be moved.
1843 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
1844 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
1845 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
1846 space in the entire filesystem.
1847 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
1848 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
1849 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
1850 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
1851 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
1853 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitialized block groups.
1854 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
1855 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
1856 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
1857 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
1858 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
1859 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
1860 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Swedish translation from the
1861 Translation Project.
1862 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
1863 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
1864 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

1909 * Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write
1910 uninitialized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128
1911 bytes when operating on extents; potentially corrupting filesystems.

2055 few new directory entries won't cause leaf nodes to become split

2058 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will

2066 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
2067 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
2068 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
2069 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
2070 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
2071 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

2081 have the flex_bg feature enabled, since the code currently assumes

2473 * New upstream release.
2474 * Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
2475 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
2476 future compatibility with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
2477 even on ext3 filesystems.
2478 * Teach mke2fs and tune2fs to set a "test_fs" flag, which indicates
2479 that it is ok to use the filesystem on in-development kernel
2480 code (i.e., ext4dev)

2508 * Make sure that programs like tune2fs, when modifying a mounted
2509 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
2510 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
2511 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
2512 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
2513 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
2514 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
2515 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
2516 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
2517 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
2518 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
2519 part of the e2fsprogs package).
2520 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
2521 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
2522 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
2523 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).
2524 * Enhance the blkid program to pretty-print control and meta
2525 characters to avoid garbage filesystem labels from screwing up the

4403 * Added latest patch from Ted for autodetection of llseek() proto.
4404 * Switched to libc6, without libc5 compatibility (yet ?).
