When a sector is unreadable, consider the whole sector as bad, instead
of trying to find which 512-byte parts of it are bad. This was causing
unwanted retries for devices with 4K sectors.
Older msvcrt.dll (on XP and earlier) did not support "%ll" print editing
formats frequently used by ntfsclone. So translate them to "%I64" when
running on Windows. This format appears to be supported by all Windows
versions. Error messages from libntfs-3g are still not translated.
This mainly means using the functions in win32_io.c instead of the
standard msvcrt.dll ones in order to be able to truncate files and
create sparse ones.

The summary of 'runcount.runs' and 'runcount.fragments' was displayed in
non-verbose mode. However these variables are not updated in non-verbose
mode, so they would always be 0.
We now only display this summary in verbose mode.
The filtering of files to undelete is usually done through the regex
library. This patch offers an alternate way when such a library is
not readily available (typically on Windows).
When ntfsundelete scans the $MFT for possible deleted files, it may
examine extries which have never been used, producing error messages
which most users do not understand. This patch silences such messages.
Allow the "--ignore-fs-check" option to be used when cloning a file system
which has allocation errors. This is useful when there is a fear that
repairing the file system might create further damage, or when the repair
has to be made on another computer.
This patch adds a new option -n to ntfsclone for simulating a restore
without writing anything. This is useful for checking the consistency
of an image without destroying the original partition.
Upgrade the Win32 interface (win32_io.c) which was designed for Cygwin
so that it can be used for using the ntfsprogs utilities on native Windows.
Two new entries are added for truncating a file and creating a sparse
file, both of which not being supported through msvcrt.dll.
When creating a metadata image, all user data is supposed to be wiped off,
but this was wrong for $MFT and directory indexes when they were
fragmented. This patch cleans the tails of metadata fragments.
The definition of the user mapping needed to interoperate permissions
with Windows is too complex for most users. Even the "usermap" utility
is too complex. This patch adds explanations for using the "-u" option
of secaudit to get a user mapping proposal
The MS_* flags originated from system constants. However the flags
passed to ntfs_mount were really unrelated to the system constants and
many new MS_* flags had to be introduced as different features were
added to the library. Those flags had no counterparts in any system
APIs, so using the same naming scheme is inappropriate.
Instead, let's namespace these flags similarly to what has already been
done in ntfsprogs/libntfs earlier. This avoids any possible conflicts
with system constants.
The values of the flags themselves are kept the same as earlier, so
backward compatibility is retained.
- Replaced 'ntfschar*' parameters with 'const ntfschar*' where
appropriate (the function does not need to modify the string).
- Replaced some instances of 'u8*' and 'char*' read-only buffer
arguments with 'const u8*' and 'const char*'.
The 'uuid' library functionality may be located in a separate 'uuid'
library, but it may also be included in the standard C library. This is
the case on Mac OS X.
Instead of relying on the uuid code being located in a 'uuid' library,
we restructure the code so that it checks different libraries, in order
for the 'uuid_generate' function. This code is easy to extend if we
would find a new configuration where uuid_generate is located in a
different library.
The OpenSolaris port of libfuse, from which our Solaris-port of
libfuse-lite originated, had to be supplied with some additional
compiler flags in order to compile.
The configure script now detects whether it is running on a Solaris
system. If that is the case it passes the proper compiler flags to
libfuse-lite, so it can compile properly.
Tested on:
- OpenIndiana oi_151a3 / gcc 3.4.3
- OpenIndiana oi_151a7 / gcc 4.3.3
- Solaris 11.1 / gcc 4.5.2
When we aren't building ntfs-3g but only the tools, then there's no need
for libfuse. Still the configure script checked for libfuse availability
and wouln't proceed unless either libfuse was detected or libfuse-lite
was enabled.
This commit fixes this issue by running the libfuse checks only when
ntfs-3g is built, meaning that we can now build the ntfsprogs even when
libfuse library or headers aren't available.
Replace the obsolete definition of reparse tags in layout.h by the
current definitions from msdn, and use them in reparse.c instead of
redefining them.
As the path passed to ntfs-3g for getxattr(2)/setxattr(2) are not
guaranteed to be the one mentioned by the caller when there are hard links,
getting/setting DOS names have to be discontinued in that situation.
Getting/setting DOS names is still possible when there is a single
non-DOS name.
Windows 8 includes a "fast restart" feature for restarting without fully
remounting the internal volumes. When this mode is selected, metadata
stored in the cache (probably hiberfil.sys) is used instead of what
is actually on disk, and this may lead to inconsistencies when changes
have been made by ntfs-3g in the meantime.
This patch tries to prevent ntfs-3g from mounting in read-write mode
when a fast restart of Windows 8 is detected. It relies on the restart
pages in the $LogFile being identified as version 2.0, which is
apparently related to data being cached for hibernation or fast restarting.
External devices, such as USB keys, may have a switch to make them
temporarily unwriteable. When such a device is plugged in, mount it
as read-only by default.
In the $LogFile, Windows 8 defines restart pages with version 2.0.
The checks designed for version 1.1 appear to apply, so accept v 2.0
and apply the usual checks.
Accept security descriptors in which the SACL is present though it does not
contain any ACE. Such security descriptors have been found in Windows
installation files.
Get a user mapping proposal by designating a file created on Windows
by the user to be mapped to the current one on Linux.
This is expected to be easier to use than "usermap".
The variable 'flags' was modified along the way and did not contain the
original flags at the end as assumed by the last printout. Fixed by
storing the original state of the flags in a temporary const variable.
On OpenIndiana, the device names have commas in them. Do not interpret
commas as option separators within the option fsname. As a consequence
this option has to be the last one.
The libfuse used by OpenIndiana has the same features as libfuse-lite
though requiring some code variants. Merging them simplifies supporting
both.
Variants for OpenIndiana are selected when defining __SOLARIS__
The type of special files (symlinks, fifos, etc.) was not returned in
readdir() and they appeared wrongly in the field d_type of "struct dirent".
This prevented some applications which relied on d_type (which does
not exist in Solaris) from navigating in an NTFS tree.
Use of UTIME_NOW and UTIME_OMIT had been temporarily removed when using
external fuse, because early versions of external fuse 2.9 did not
support them. They can now be restored as they are supported by released
versions of fuse 2.9
