* resize2fs uses much less CPU and is much faster for very large fs. * The seti and freei commands in debugfs can now take an optional length argument to set and clear a contiguous range of inodes. * E2fsck will now make explicit checks for the EOFBLOCKS_FL, since we plan to remove support for it from the kernel file system driver. * mke2fs can now use direct I/O via "mke2fs -D" * E2fsck was needlessly closing and re-opening the file system as a side effect of adding Multiple Mount Protection (MMP). This isn't necessary for non-MMP file systems, so drop it. * E2fsck will now abort if there are memory allocation failures when the file system is initially opened and during the block group descriptor checks. * e2fsck will now report the incorrect and corrected checksum values for incorrect block groups. * e2fsck can now write log files containing the details of the problems that were found and fixed directly, via configuration parameters in /etc/e2fsck.conf. * The number of messages reported by e2fsck for a given problem type can be limited. * dumpe2fs, debugfs, and tune2fs now use rbtree bitmaps, which noticably reduces memory consumption for large file systems. * E2fsck now checks for extents with a zero length. * Fixed a number of bugs relating to discard. * E2fsck's CPU utilization in pass 5 has been optimized. * E2image will now skip copying uninitialized bitmap and inode table blocks. * Fixed mke2fs -S so it does not corrupt the first block group's information. * E2fsck will now check the new sysfs interface to determine if we are OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/filesystems/e2fsprogs?expand=0&rev=27
e2fsprogs-devel --------------- Since the e2fsprogs libraries has been split out into own packages, each having its own devel package libext2fs-devel libblkid-devel libuuid-devel libcom_err-devel the e2fsprogs-devel package is deprecated and is provided for temporary backwards compatibility only.
