| E2fsprogs 1.43.4 (January 31, 2017) |
| =================================== |
| |
| Fix e2fsck to require that the system.data extended attribute is |
| always present even for files smaller than 60 bytes, to be consistent |
| with the kernel. |
| |
| Fix a bug which was causing mke2fs -d and fuse2fs to improperly handle |
| Posix ACL's. |
| |
| Fix a bug which could cause mke2fs -d to fail if there is an |
| zero-length file in source directory tree. |
| |
| Clarify the default for the "proceed?" question printed by mke2fs and |
| tune2fs. (Addresses Debian Bug: #852727) |
| |
| Debugfs will now display project quota information. |
| |
| Debugfs's do_set_xattr now uses C strings to parse extended attribute |
| values, and will print the extended attributes using either C strings |
| or hex bytes when using debugfs's do_get_xattr command. It will now |
| allow developers to see the contents of the system.data extended |
| attribute. |
| |
| Fix a bug in mke2fs where I/O errors weren't getting properly reported |
| to the user. |
| |
| Fix multiblock writes in the unaligned Direct I/O fallback code. |
| (Which is rarely needed on Linux systems, but which is required on |
| Freebsd systems.) |
| |
| Make sure the default mke2fs.conf file includes the uninit_bg feature |
| flag. (Which was accidentally dropped in v1.43). |
| |
| Fix a bug in resize2fs when operating on very large file systems which |
| have a block size different from the VM page size. |
| |
| If the reported device size is absurdly large, mke2fs will now report |
| an error instead looping forever or crashing. |
| |
| Fix various Coverity warnings and other memory leaks in fuse2fs and |
| extended attribute manipulation functions. |
| |
| Replace a test file but which had a "non-commercial use-only" |
| copyright permission file with a newer version from the Cyrus imapd |
| package which now has a 4-clause BSD license, which was making some |
| lawyers nervous, even though the test file in question was only used |
| in lib/et's regression testing and was never included in any compiled |
| binary. (Addresses Debian Bug: #840733) |
| |
| Stop installing mkfs.ext4dev and fsck.ext4dev |
| |
| Update Chinese, Czech, Polish, Serbian, and Spanish translations and |
| add the Finnish and Malay translation. (Addresses-Debian-Bug: #774379) |
| |
| Update various man pages (Addresses-Debian-Bug: #852726) |
| |
| Programming notes |
| ----------------- |
| |
| Fix more FreeBSD-11 compatibility bugs, including some unmasked by |
| FreeBSD 11-rc2. |
| |
| Fix the Mac build. |
| |
| Fix build failure on RHEL 5.x systems caused by an old version of |
| libmagic. |
| |
| Fix a number of bugs reported by ASAN that can cause some (mostly |
| harmless) memory dereferences beyond allocated memory. |
