E2fsprogs Description
E2fsprogs contain all of the standard utilities for creating, fixing, configuring , and debugging ext2 filesystems. E2fsprogs (Ext2 Filesystem Utilities) contain all of the standard utilities for creating, fixing, configuring , and debugging ext2 filesystems. What's New in This Release: · Fix a bug in libext2fs which can cause e2fsck and resize2fs to write uninitalized data into the portion of the inode beyond the first 128 bytes when operating on inodes mapped via extents; potentially corrupting filesystems. · Fix memory leaks in e2fsprogs, including a very large memory leak which can cause e2fsck to run out of memory when checking very large filesystems using extents. · The logsave program will now filter out the ^A and ^B characters when writing to the console. · Harden ext2fs_validate_entry() so that lsdel will not read beyond the end of the block even if the directory block is corrupted. · Fix debugfs from core dumping if the logdump command fails to open the output file. · Enhance badblocks to print the currently tested block number when interrupted with ^C. · Fix lsattr to exit with a non-zero status when it encounters errors. (Addresses RedHat Bugzilla #489841) · Fix e2fsprogs to use the same encoding for rec_len in 64k (and larger) filesystems as the kernel when encoding rec_len >= 64k. For 64k filesystems (currently all that is supported by e2fsprogs, this is only a minor corner case). · Resize2fs will now update the journal backup fileds in the sup0erblock if the journal is moved; this avoids an unnecessary full fsck after resizing the filesystem. (Addresses RedHat Bugzilla: #505339) · Fix libext2fs to properly initialize i_extra_size when creating the journal and resize inodes. · Change badblocks to allow block sizes larger than 4k. · Fix filefrag progam so it correctly checks for errors from the fiemap ioctl. · Update Chinese and Czech translation from the Translation Project. · Clean up various man pages. (Addresses Debian Bug #531385 and #523063)
