Editing: ChangeLog.dosfstools-2.x
version 2.11 ============ - all: don't use own llseek() anymore, glibc lseek() does everything we need - dosfsck: lfn.c: avoid segfault - dosfsck: check.c, lfn.c: check for orphaned LFN slots - dosfsck: check.c alloc_rootdir_entry(): set owner of newly alloced clusters - dosfsck: dosfsck.h: better use <byteswap.h> for byte swapping - dosfsck: io.c: added code for real DOS - mkdosfs: raised FAT12_THRESHOLD from 4078 to 4085, introduced MIN_CLUST_32 - mkdosfs: fix loop device size - mkdosfs: by default, use FAT32 on devices >= 512MB - mkdosfs: fix a memory leak (blank_sector) - mkdosfs: fix parsing of number of blocks on command line, so that numbers >2G can be used - mkdosfs: add 'b' to getopt() string so this option can be used :) - mkdosfs: fix parsing of -i arg (should be unsigned) - mkdosfs: change default permissions of created images (-C) to 0666 & ~umask - mkdosfs: relax geometry check: if HDIO_GETGEO fails, print a warning and default to H=255,S=63 - dosfsck: new option -n (no-op): just check non-interactively, but don't write anything to filesystem - A few #include changes to support compilation with linux 2.6 headers (thanks to Jim Gifford <jim@jg555.com>) - dosfsck: remove directory entries pointing to start cluster 0, if they're not "." or ".." entries that should actually point to the root dir (pointed out by Thomas Winkler <twinkler@sysgo.de>) - mkdosfs: new option -h to set number of hidden sectors (thanks to Godwin Stewart <gstewart@spamcop.net>) - all: updated my mail address everywhere... version 2.10 ============ - dosfsck: various 64-bit fixes and removed some warnings by Michal Cihar <mcihar@suse.cz> - mkdosfs: better error message if called without parameters (also suggested by Michal) version 2.9 =========== - dosfsck: if EOF from stdin, exit with error code - dosfsck: Fix potential for "Internal error: next_cluster on bad cluster". - dosfsck: When clearing long file names, don't overwrite the dir entries with all zeros, but put 0xe5 into the first byte. Otherwise, some OSes stop reading the directory at that point... - dosfsck: in statistics printed by -v, fix 32bit overflow in number of data bytes. - dosfsck: fix an potential overflow in "too many clusters" check - dosfsck: fix 64bit problem in fat.c (Debian bug #152769) - dosfsck: allow FAT size > 32MB. - dosfsck: allow for only one FAT - dosfsck: with -v, also check that last sector of the filesystem can be read (in case a partition is smaller than the fs thinks) - mkdosfs: add note in manpage that creating bootable filesystems is not supported. - mkdosfs: better error message with pointer to -I if target is a full-disk device. version 2.8 =========== - dosfsck: Fixed endless loop whenever a volume label was present. version 2.7 =========== - dosfsck: Don't check volume label for bad characters, everything seems to be allowed there... Also ignore duplicate names where one of them is a volume label. version 2.6 =========== - mkdosfs: Added correct heads definition for 2.88M floppies if not created via loopback. - dosfsck: If boot sector and its backup are different (FAT32), offer to write the backup to sector 0. (tnx to Pavel Roskin for this) - For 64 bit alpha, struct bootsector in dosfsck.h must be defined with __attribute__((packed)). - mkdosfs now actually accepts -R option. (tnx to David Kerrawn) - Fixed typo in dosfsck boot.c (recognition of boot signature in FSINFO) - Various compilation fixes for 2.4 kernel headers and for ia64. version 2.5 =========== - The llseek() implementation for alpha didn't really work; fixed it. version 2.4 =========== - Fix compiling problem on alpha (made a silly typo...) version 2.3 =========== - mkdosfs: Fixed usage message (printed only "bad address"). - both: made man pages and usage statements more consistent. - both: fix llseek function for alpha. - dosfsck: fix reading of unaligned fields in boot sector for alpha. - dosfsck: fixed renaming of files (extension wasn't really written). version 2.2 =========== - Added dosfsck/COPYING, putting dosfsck officially under GPL (Werner and I agree that it should be GPL). - mkdosfs: Allow creation of a 16 bit FAT on filesystems that are too small for it if the user explicitly selected FAT16 (but a warning is printed). Formerly, you got the misleading error message "make the fs a bit smaller". - dosfsck: new option -y as synonym for -y; for compability with other fs checkers, which also accept this option. - dosfsck: Now prints messages similar to e2fsck: at start version and feature list; at end number of files (and directories) and number of used/total clusters. This makes the printouts of *fsck at boot time nicer. - dosfsck: -a (auto repair) now turns on -f (salvage files), too. -a should act as non-destructive as possible, so lost clusters should be assigned to files. Otherwise the data in them might be overwritten later. - dosfsck: Don't drop a directory with lots of bad entries in auto-repair mode for the same reason as above. - dosfsck: avoid deleting the whole FAT32 root dir if something is wrong with it (bad start cluster or the like). - general: also create symlinks {mkfs,fsck}.vfat.8 to the respective real man pages. version 2.1 =========== - Fix some forgotten loff_t's for filesystems > 4GB. (Thanks to <ki@kretz.co.at>). - Fix typo in mkdosfs manpage. - Removed inclusion of <linux/loop.h> from mkdosfs.c; it's unnecessary and caused problems in some environments. - Fix condition when to expect . and .. entries in a directory. (Was wrong for non-FAT32 if first entry in root dir was a directory also.) - Also create mkfs.vfat and fsck.vfat symlinks, so that also filesystems listed with type "vfat" in /etc/fstab can be automatically checked. version 2.0 =========== - merge of mkdosfs and dosfstools in one package - new maintainer: Roman Hodek <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> - FAT32 support in both mkdosfs and dosfsck - VFAT (long filename) support in dosfsck - Support for Atari variant of MS-DOS filesystem in both tools - Working support for big-endian systems in both tools - Better support for loop devices in mkdosfs: usual floppy sizes are detected and media byte etc. set accordingly; if loop fs has no standard floppy size, use hd params (mainly by Giuliano Procida <gpp10@cus.cam.ac.uk>) - Removed lots of gcc warnings - Fixed some minor calculation bugs in mkdosfs.
