tune2fs: Improve the error messages for tune2fs -I
If the current inode size is less than or equal to the requested inode
size, either explain that shrinking the inode size is not supported,
or that the inode is already the requested size. Also, open the
filesystem provisionally first to do the inode size check and don't
setup up the undo log until we know that we're actually going to
perform the inode resizing operation.
Disordered inode tables may appear when inode_blocks_per_group is lesser
or equal to the number of groups in a flex group.
This bug can be reproduced with:
mkfs.ext4 -t ext4dev -G512 70G
In that case, you can see with dump2fs that inode tables for groups 510
and 511 are placed just after group 51's inode table instead of being
placed after group 509's inode table.
Add more intelligent handling of the mke2fs.conf installation process
For people who are compiling mke2fs for their own use outside of a
package manager, we need to make sure the system /etc/mke2fs.conf is
sufficiently up-to-date that it won't cause problems, but at the same
time we don't want to blow away any user-specific customizations.
So if /etc/mk2fs.conf exists, but does not mention ext4dev, we will
move it aside to /etc/mke2fs.conf.e2fsprogs-old and then install the
new mke2fs.conf. If the /etc/mke2fs.conf file exists but does mention
ext4dev, we install the new mke2fs.conf file as
/etc/mke2fs.conf.e2fsprogs-new. In both cases we print a warning
mesage to the user so they can manually update /etc/mke2fs.conf with
any changes if they so desire.
ext2fs_read_inode: Check the validity of the inode number earlier
It looks like the right place to check for ino=0 in
ext2fs_read_inode_full() is before creating the inode cache, otherwise
since we set icache[i].ino = 0 in create_icache(), it will match the
loop below and thus we return a wrong value.
Disable %.sh -> % GNU make rule in the top-level Makefile
It's not needed for e2fsprogs, but one niche distribution likes to use
configure.sh files which can cause GNU make to inappropriately fire an
implicit rule to overwrite the configure file resulting in a fork bomb
leading to the OOM crash.
libext2fs: Don't check the group checksum when !GDT_CSUM
ext2fs_group_desc_csum_verify() is always checking the bg_checksum (to
make sure it is zero) even when the GDT_CSUM feature is not present.
This is normally OK, but apparently there are filesystems in the wild
where this field has not be initialized to zero.
e2fsck: Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running "make check" programs
This is needed so that "make check" works in the e2fsck library even
if the shared libraries are not yet installed, and so that we run
those programs against the version of the libraries built in the build
tree.
Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to 600 consistently for Solaris C99 support
Solaris's header files are very picky about which C compiler can be
used for SUSv3 conformance. Use of C99 is not compatible with SUSv2
(_XOPEN_SOURCE=500), and C89 is not compatible with SUSv3
(_XOPEN_SOURCE=600). Since we need some SUSv3 functions, consistently
use SUSv3 so that e2fsprogs will build on Solaris using c99.
Gcc only supports __builtin_expect for gcc versions 2.96 and up.
Since it's tricky to check for gcc 2.95 vs 2.96 (and either are only
used on really ancient systems anyway), we only use this optimization
on 3.x and newer versions of gcc.
Make ext2fs_check_desc() more stringent to force use of backup superbocks
E2fsck could to do more damage to a filesystem by trying to relocate
inode tables due to corrupted block group descriptors, and the
relocation could seriously damage the filesystem.
This patch enhances ext2fs_check_desk() so it detects more
self-inconsistent block group descriptors, including the cases where
e2sck might be tempted to relocate the inode table, and reports the
block group descriptors as invalid; this will cause e2fsck to attempt
to use the backup superblocks, which hopefully have not been trashed.
mke2fs,tune2fs: Enable huge_file, dir_nlink, and extra_isize features
Also change mke2fs.conf to enable huge_file,dir_nlink,extra_isize, and
uninit_bg by default for ext4 filesystems, and enable extra_isize in
the library as well.
badblocks: Use standard terminology for first/last block
Use consistent and standard terminology for the starting and ending
blocks for the badblocks test in the man page and in the messages
printed by the program.
The Hurd only supports filesystems with a blocksize of 4096 bytes, and
128 byte inodes. It also doesn't understand the journal. So force
the defaults to be something which the Hurd can handle if "-o hurd" is
specified on the command line.

blkid: Make regression test tolerate older versions of mkswap
The blkid/tests contains new tests for swap, but the type-1 swapfile
test depends on mkswap supporting the "-U" option to specify the UUID.
This is not available even on relatively recent versions of mkswap
(2.13.1 16-Jan-2008) so the test needs to be changed to handle this.
If the "-U" option is not supported, don't verify the UUID in the blkid
output during testing.

libext2fs: Fix FLEX_BG offset used by ext2fs_allocate_group_table
The offset for both inode bitmaps and inode tables is overshot by one
block causing a hole between the group of bitmaps and inode tables
when initializing a filesystem using mke2fs.

mke2fs: Print a better error msg when ext2fs_get_device_size() returns EFBIG
Print a message when mke2fs uses a default blocksize from an external
journal device, and print a more self-explanatory message so that if
that blocksize is used and ext2fs_get_device_size() returns EFBIG, the
user has a better chance of understanding why mke2fs issued that error
message.
mke2fs: Use a fs_type of 'journal' when creating an external journal
If creating a an external journal via "mke2fs -O journal_dev",
override the fs_type list (i.e., "ext2", "small"), and replace it with
an fs_type list of "journal". This will prevent external journals
smaller than 512MB from being created with a block size of 1k, which
is not very useful and leads to much confusion.
badblocks: Fix crash when lots of -t patterns given
With more than 8 -t patterns given, badblocks will overwrite the
t_patts array boundary due to realloc not taking into account the size
of an int. Oops.

libext2fs: Don't include ss/ss.h except when debugging
extent.c should only try to include ss/ssh.h when it is compiled with
-DDEBUG. Otherwise it's not necessary and it breaks the Debian MIPS
build (and the Debian MIPS build only) because it tries to build
libext2fs without building libss as part of a MIPS-specific build
rule.

blkid: fix swap tests (again)
Some architectures (ppc ...) need a bigger swapfile than is shipped,
in the test image so the current re-make of swap was failing.
We could either ship a bigger image or just dd a bigger file...
There is one more minor problem with the tests; older mkswap does not
support the -U uuid specification. I'm not sure offhand what to do
about that problem, or if it really needs fixing.
