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

973 * New upstream version
974 * The mke2fs program no longer requires a force (-F) option when
975 when creating a file system in a regular file, since this is a very
976 common use case when managing virtual machine images
977 * The mke2fs program will now ask for confirmation before wiping out a
978 pre-existing file system, partition label, or physical volume
979 * Fix e2fsck so that it properly handles an inconsistent quota inode.
980 Previously the quota inode could be completely corrupted, and
981 missing quota records could be not noticed
982 * Fix mke2fs so if packed metadata blocks are enabled that the block
983 group checksum are set correctly
984 * Debugfs has new commands to allow the quota inode to be queried directly
985 * Tune2fs will allow removal of dirty journal with two "-f" options
987 * Fixed some off-line resize2fs bugs when relocating metadata blocks
988 when growing or shrinking bigalloc file systems
989 * Fixed resize2fs's calculation of the minimum required file system
990 size. This allows resize2fs -M to shrink the file system more
992 * Fixed resize2fs to properly handle shrinking a very large and empty
993 file system to a very very small size
994 * Fixed e4defrag to work with 64-bit and bigalloc file systems
995 * Fixed e2fsck to not issue a large number of very scary (but
996 harmless) corruption messages when checking very large file systems
997 when the file system has more inodes than the number of seconds
998 since January 1, 1970.
999 * E2fsck will now check the whole file system if file system problems
1000 are detected during its initial "pass 0" sanity check
1001 * Filefrag now prints the "shared extent" flag which is used by some
1002 file systems such as btrfs
1003 * The mke2fs program would previously correctly omit the resize_inode
1004 feature when creating a file system > 16TB when the fs size was
1005 determined automatically. It will now also do the right thing when
1006 the user explicitly specifies the file system size.

1078 case that were added: -o, -O, -p, and -c.
1079 * Fixed a regression introduced in 1.42.8 which would cause e2fsck to

1109 override this behavior.
1110 * If an invalid journal size is given to mke2fs, it will now complain
1112 * Fix resize2fs when shrinking file systems to make sure that bitmap
1113 blocks aren't left outside the bounds of the shrunken file system.
1114 This could happen with flex_bg file systems that were grown using
1115 the old online resizing algorithm.

1149 the call to ext2fs_open2() fails.
1150 * Fixed e2fsck if its logging function is enabled in e2fsck.conf, and
1151 the resulting file name for the log file is longer than 100 bytes,
1152 that it properly handles this situation instead of crashing.
1153 * E2fsck will now report the amount of memory that it attempted to
1154 allocate when a memory allocation request fails, to make it easier to
1155 track down the problem.
1156 * Fixed a bug in resize2fs which could cause severe file system
1157 corruption when growing an ext4 file system which was formatted with
1158 fewer-than-normal reserved gdt blocks
1159 * Fixed resize2fs to be able to handle off-line resizes of file
1160 systems with the flex_bg feature and without any reserved gdt
1161 blocks or if the file system did not have the resize_inode feature
1162 * Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
1163 resizing very large file systems.
1164 * Fixed 32-bit overflow bugs which could cause resize2fs to fail and

1593 direct I/O is being used. The badblocks command now also
1594 supports a -B option which forces the use of buffered I/O, and
1595 the -v option will provide a more detailed breakdown of read,

1734 disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual
1735 exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are

1800 * Improve e2fsck so it prints "Illegal indirect block" instead of

1826 * Fix tune2fs -I to work correctly in the face of bad blocks and
1827 filesystems formatted for RAID arrays, and ENOSPC errors
1828 * Require the user to only answer one question instead of multiple
1829 ones for multiple bad block group checksums, or when an inode
1830 table needs to be moved.
1831 * Fix e2fsck to handle moving inode tables in FLEX_BG filesystems more
1832 gracefully by looking in the entire flex_bg for space, instead of
1833 just in the block group; if that doesn't work, try looking for
1834 space in the entire filesystem.
1835 * Fix the filefrag code to avoid printing the extent header if it
1836 needs to fallback to using the FIBMAP ioctl.
1837 * Fix filefrag to print the correct number of extents for zero-length
1838 files when using FIBMAP. (Closes: #540376)
1839 * Add a filefrag -B option to make it easier to debug the FIBMAP
1841 * Allow e2fsprogs programs to allocate from uninitialized block groups.
1842 * Add a new program, e2freefrag, which displays information about the
1843 free space fragmentation in an ext2/3/4 filesystem.
1844 * E2fsck will now print much fuller information when the last mount
1845 time or last written time is in the future, since most people can't
1846 seem to believe their distribution has buggy init scripts, or they
1847 have a failed CMOS/RTS clock battery.
1848 * Update French, Polish, Czech, and Swedish translation from the
1849 Translation Project.
1850 * Enhance debugfs's 'stat' command to print basic extent information
1851 for extent-mapped inodes, and add a new command, 'dump_extents'
1852 which prints detailed information about an inode's extent tree.

2046 node in the extent tree, and would crash in that case. It now will

2052 replying journals for filesystems with block sizes greater than 8k.

2054 filesystems with 32-bit block numbers. This was accidentally broken
2055 when the header files were changed to support the 64-bit block numbers.
2056 * Fix resize2fs for ext4 filesystems. Some blocks that that need moving
2057 when shrinking filesystems with uninit_bg feature would not be
2058 moved. In addition, blocks and inode table blocks were not being
2059 correctly freed when shrinking filesystems with the flex_bg feable,

2461 * New upstream release.
2462 * Mke2fs will now create new filesystems with 256 byte inodes and the
2463 ext_attr feature flag by default. This allows for much better
2464 future compatibility with ext4 and speeds up extended attributes
2465 even on ext3 filesystems.
2466 * Teach mke2fs and tune2fs to set a "test_fs" flag, which indicates
2467 that it is ok to use the filesystem on in-development kernel
2468 code (i.e., ext4dev)
2469 * E2fsck now optimizes non-htree directories by sorting them by inode

2496 * Make sure that programs like tune2fs, when modifying a mounted
2497 filesystem do not write the backup superblocks with the
2498 NEEDS_RECOVERY flag, to avoid e2fsck from needlessly forcing a
2499 full fsck because it thinks the feature flags need to be backed up
2500 from the master to the backup superblocks. (Closes: #454926)
2501 * Improve time-based UUID generation to guarantee uniqueness even when
2502 UUID's are being generated at very high rates on SMP systems. To
2503 do this we use an optional setuid helper daemon (uuidd) which is
2504 started by libuuid when it is needed. The uuidd daemon is
2505 packaged in the (new) uuid-runtime package, which now also includes
2506 the uuidgen program (which had been previously been included as
2507 part of the e2fsprogs package).
2508 * Fix fsck to only treat '#' characters at the beginning of /etc/fstab
2509 lines as starting a comment. This avoids spurious warnings printed
2510 for filesystems such as fuse that often use '#' as part of the
2511 filesystem specifier (i.e., wdfs#https://dav.hoster.com/foo).
2512 * Enhance the blkid program to pretty-print control and meta
2513 characters to avoid garbage filesystem labels from screwing up the
2515 * Fix potential integer overflows passed to malloc() in resize2fs
2516 * Update Dutch, Polish, and Vietnamese translations from the

3078 the old inode table blocks when we move the inode table.
3080 * Make sure that we don't write garbage when writing a large inode.
3081 * Check NTFS ahead of other filesystems since Windows doesn't always
3082 clearing enough of the partition to avoid false positives with older
3083 filesystems. (Closes: #291990)
3084 * E2fsck now checks the summary filesystem accounting information, and
3085 if any of the information is obviously wrong, it will force a full
3086 filesystem check. (Closes: #291571)
3087 * Clarified and updated tune2fs and blkid man pages
3088 * Fix e2fsck to not complain when the resize_inode feature is enabled,
3089 s_reserved_gdt_blocks is zero, and there is no DIND block allocated in

3134 999,999,999 in its progress display.
3135 * tune2fs will not allow the user from setting a ridiculous number of
3136 reserved blocks which would cause e2fsck to assume the superblock
3137 was corrupt. E2fsck's standards for what is a ridiculous number
3138 of reserved blocks has also been relaxed to 50% of the blocks in
3140 * The blkid library will return vfat in preference to msdos, and ext3 in

3150 than specifying a block count.
3151 * Fix an obscure, hard-to find bug in "e2fsck -S" caused by an inode
3152 cache coherency problem.
3153 * Debugfs now supports a new command, set_inode_field, which allows a
3154 user to manually set a specific inode field more conveniently, as
3155 well as set entries in the indirect block map.
3156 * Debugfs's set_super_value command has been enhanced so that the user
3157 can set most superblock fields, including the date/time fields and
3158 some of the more newly added superblock fields.
3159 * E2fsprogs programs now accept an offset to be passed to the file
3160 specifiers, via the syntax: "/tmp/test.img?offset=1024"
3161 * E2fsprogs will now accept blocksizes up to 65536; kernel support on
3162 the x86 doesn't exist, but it is useful on other architectures.
3163 * Fix bug in debugfs where kill_file would lead to errors when deleting
3164 devices and symlinks. (Sourceforge Bugs #954741 and #957244)

3182 debian/rules file so that a dpkg-source created patch won't
3183 trigger an attempt rebuild of the configure script.
