(Addresses Debian Bug: #984472) + +Fix fast_commit portability problems on sparc64 and arm64 architectures +(the latter when running e2fsprogs compiled for arm32). (Addresses +Debian Bug: #987641) + +Fix missing mutex unlock in an error path in the Unix I/O manager. + +Fix Direct I/O support in the Unix I/O manager (this was a regression +that was introduced in v1.46.2). + +Fix mke2fs to avoid discarding blocks beyond the end of the file system +to be created when creating a file system which is smaller than 16MB and +the file system size was explicitly specified and smaller than the size +of the block device. (Addresses Debian Bug: #989630) + +Teach mke2fs to avoid giving a spurious warning about a pre-existing +partition table and it is creating a file system at a non-zero offset +(so the partition table wouldn't be overwritten in any case). +(Addresses Debian Bug: #989612) + +Fix e2image -Q to prevent a multiplication overflow could corrupt the +generated QCOW2 output file for very large file systems. + +When e2fsck repairs '.' and '..' entries in corrupted directories, set +the file type in the directory entry to be EXT2_FT_DIR and do not leave +the file type as EXT2_FT_UNKNOWN. + +Fix e2fsck so that the if the s_interval is zero, and the last mount or +write time is in the future, it will fix invalid last mount/write +timestamps in the superblock. (This was a regression introduced in +v1.45.5.) + +Fix potential memory leaks and seg faults when memory allocations fail. + +Fix lsattr and chattr to avoid opening or calling EXT2_IOC_[GS]ETFLAGS +on devices, since this can cause some devices to react badly as a +result. (Thix fixes a regression introduced in v1.46.2 and addresses +Debian Bug: #986332) + +Updated and clarified the e2image and filefrag man pages. + + +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. +-------------------------------------------------------------- + +Avoid forking an unnecessary thread in ext2fs_rw_bitmaps(). + +Avoid unnecessary stat(2) calls on mountpoints when checking if a file +system is mounted. + +Add more modern support for Windows I/O. + +Fix various compiler and valgrind warnings. + +Synchronized changes from Android's AOSP e2fsprogs tree. + +Update Dutch, Malay, and Serbian translations. |
