| E2fsprogs 1.43.5 (August 4, 2017) |
| ================================= |
| |
| Fix a bug which could cause e2fsck to loop forever when rebuilding an |
| encrypted directory with entries with identical prefixes up to an |
| embedded NUL character. |
| |
| Fix build when configured with --disable-threads or --enable-profile. |
| |
| Fix ext2fs_sync_device() so it returns the proper error code if the |
| BLKFLSBUF ioctl fails for some reason. |
| |
| Fix a potential crash in tune2fs when enabling project quota when the |
| file system has no inodes by fixing error handling in the |
| quota_write_inode() in libsupport. |
| |
| Fix a bug in debugfs's "ls -p" handling which could cause it to print |
| garbage after a file name in a directory entry. |
| |
| Fix a number of bugs in debugfs, dumpe2fs, e2fsck, tune2fs, and |
| resize2fs where a carefully/maliciously corrupted file systems (found |
| by American Fuzzy Lop) could these programs to crash or hang. |
| (Addresses Debian Bug #868489) |
| |
| E2fsck no longer issues some harmless bitmap warnings caused by a |
| corrupted file system; since those corruptions will be fixed up by |
| e2fsck later, there's no point issuing these internal warnings. |
| |
| E2fsck will now notice invalid quota inode numbers, and offer to fix |
| them. |
| |
| Fix a regression introduced in e2fsprogs 1.43 which broke mke2fs's |
| hugefile creation so that they aren't contiguous. (Addresses Google |
| Bugs 62791459 and 638037607) |
| |
| Fix how backup superblocks are written in big endian systems so they |
| are all correctly byte swapped. |
| |
| Fixed tune2fs's support for enabling and disabling project quota. |
| |
| The badblock program now properly handles languages which have |
| multi-column wide character such as Chinese. (Addresses Debian Bug: |
| #860926) |
| |
| The mke2fs -U option now accepts "null", "clear", "random", or "time" |
| just as tune2fs's -U option. |
| |
| Fix e2fsck's -E bmap2extent feature (which converts a file to use |
| extents from indirect block maps) so that it handles sparse files correctly. |
| |
| Fix libext2fs to correctly handle accounting for an external xattr |
| block on bigalloc file systems. |
| |
| Fix e2fsck to correctly handle quota accounting when deleting files |
| that have multiply-claimed blocks pass 1b. |
| |
| Fix potential buffer overrun bug in e2fsck when using 128 byte inodes. |
| (Addresses Google Bug 37326362). |
| |
| E2fsck's extent tree optimization can now be disabled via an |
| command-line extended option or via an e2fsck.conf configuration |
| parameter. |
| |
| The e2fsck program now properly updates the quota accounting when |
| optimizing the extent tree. (Addresses Google Bug 36391645) |
| |
| Fix some error handling in e4crypt when operating on keyring ID's. |
| |
| Fix e2fsck's quota handling when the bigalloc feature is enabled. |
| |
| The libext2fs file system now uses readahead when opening file systems |
| to speed up opening very large file systems with the meta_bg option. |
| |
| If e2fsck logging is enabled, e2fsck will report the exit code in the |
| last line of the log file. |
| |
| Debugfs can now open file systems with a bad superblock checksum, and |
| the show_super_stats command will print the expected checksum. |
| |
| Fix a regression introduced in e2fsprogs 1.43.4 where tune2fs was not |
| able to correctly enable the quota feature. (Addresses Debian Bug |
| #855417) |
| |
| E2fsck will only return an exit status code of 1 if it has fixed a |
| file system corruption. If it only performed an optimal optimization |
| of internal file system metadata, it will now return 0. |
| |
| Fix e2fsck so it won't check inode fields of deleted inodes. This was |
| mostly harmless, but the addition of a check in 1.43.4 to enforce the |
| requirement that inline data inodes have a system.data attribute |
| caused a regression in xfstests generic/079. Fix this and a number of |
| other checks which could lead to false positive reports of file system |
| corruption. |
| |
| Removed a debugging printf in libsupport which could result to some |
| extraneous and confusing output if the user specifies a quota type. |
| |
| The debugfs logdump command now accepts a new -S option which will |
| cause it to print information about the journal superblock. |
| |
| Added a missing space in debugfs's ls -l output to separate the size |
| and date fields. |
| |
| Update the Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, Hungarian, Polish, Serbian, |
| Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese translations. |
| |
| Update various man pages. (Addresses Debian Bugs #867895 and #865584) |
| |
| Fix various compiler and UBSAN warnings. |
| |
| Fixed various Debian Packaging Issues. (Addresses Debian Bugs |
| #864144 and #866623) |

| Programming notes |
| ----------------- |
| |
| The blkid library can now recognize exfat file systems. |
| |
| Add new test, j_recover_csum3_64bit, which checks to make sure we |
| correctly recovering 64-bit journals using the v3 checksum format. |
| |
| Fix portability assumption in tests; don't depend on the existence of |
| /dev/stdin. |
| |
| Fix portability with newer versions of glibc and with Cygwin builds on |
| Windows 8 and Windows 10. |
| |
| Clean up the comments in problem.c match the message that will |
| actually be printed. |
| |
| Removed an unused an obsolete header file. |
