Release notes for the e2fsprogs package

+

E2fsprogs 1.41.11 (March 14, 2010)

+ +

E2fsck will no longer give a fatal error and abort if the physical +device has been resized beyond 2**32 blocks. (Addresses Launchpad +Bug: #521648)

+ +

Debugfs has a bug fixed so that "logdump -b " now properly shows +the allocation status of the block . (Addresses Debian Bug: +#564084)

+ +

E2fsck now prints a much more emphatic and hopefully scary message +when a file system is detected as mounted while doing a read/write +check of the filesystem. Hopefully this will dissuade users from +thinking, "surely that message doesn't apply to *me*" :-(

+ +

E2fsck -n will now always open the file system read-only. We now +disallow certain combination of options which previously were manual +exceptions; this is bad because it causes users to think they are +smarter than they really are. So "-n -c", "-n -l", "-n -L", and "-n +-D" are no longer supported. (Addresses Launchpad Bug: #537483)

+ +

In e2fsprogs 1.41.10, mke2fs would ask for confirmation to proceed if +it detected a badly aligned partition. Unfortunately, this broke some +distribution installation scripts, so it now just prints the warning +message and proceeds. (Addresses Red Hat Bug: #569021. Addresses +Launchpad Bug: #530071)

+ +

Mke2fs would take a long time to create very large journal files for +ext4. This was caused by a bug in ext2fs_block_iterate2(), which is +now fixed.

+ +

E2fsck now understands the EOFBLOCKS_FL flag which will be used in +2.6.34 kernels to make e2fsck not complain about blocks deliberately +fallocated() beyond an inode's i_size.

+ +

E2fsprogs 1.41.10 introduced a regression (in commit b71e018) where +e2fsck -fD can corrupt non-indexed directories when are exists one or +more file names which alphabetically sort before ".". This can happen +with ext2 filesystems or for small directories (take less than a lock) +which contain filenames that begin with a space or some other +punctuation mark. (Addresses Debian Bug: #573923, Addresses Launchpad +Bug: #525114)

+ + +

Programmer's Notes

+ +

Add new test, f_rehash_dir, which checks to make sure e2fsck -D works +correctly.

+ +

The libcom_err function now has support for Heimdal's com_right_r +function(). (Addresses Sourceforge Bug: #2963865, Addresses Debian +Bug: #558910)

+ +

E2fsprogs 1.41.10 (February 10, 2010)

Fix resize2fs bug which causes it to access invalid memory.
