|
||||
|
||||
<P>Add support for the orphan_file feature, which speeds up workloads that
|
||||
are deleting or truncating a large number files in parallel. This
|
||||
compat feature was first supported in the v5.15 Linux kernel.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>The mke2fs program (via the mke2fs.conf file) now enables the
|
||||
metadata_csum_seed and orphan_file features by default. The
|
||||
metadata_csum_seed feature is an incompat feature which is first
|
||||
supported in the Linux kernel starting in the 4.4 kernel and e2fsprogs
|
||||
1.43.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Mke2fs now supports the extended option "assume_storage_prezeroed" which
|
||||
causes mke2fs to skip zeroing the journal and inode tables and to mark
|
||||
the inode tables as zeroed.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Add support to tune2fs and e2label to set the label and UUID for a
|
||||
mounted file system using a ioctl, which is more reliable than modifying
|
||||
the superblock via writing to the block device. The kernel support for
|
||||
setting the label landed in v5.17, while the support for adding the UUID
|
||||
landed in v6.0. If the ioctls are not supported, tune2fs and e2label
|
||||
will fall back old strategy of directly modifying the superblock.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Allow tune2fs to disable the casefold feature after scanning all of the
|
||||
directories do not have the Casefold flag set.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<H3>Fixes</H3>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Fix a potential unbalanced mutex unlock when there is a short read while
|
||||
using the bounce buffer when using direct I/O.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<H3>Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.</H3>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Fix various Coverity and compiler warnings.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Add the new function ext2fs_xattrs_read_inode() which takes an in-memory
|
||||
inode to avoid needing to reread an inode that was already read into
|
||||
memory.</P>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>Teach debugfs logdump command the -n option which forces printing a
|
||||
specified number of transactions, even when a block missing a magic
|
||||
number would have stopped the logdump. (This is for debugging
|
||||
journalling problems.)</P>
