e2fsprogs: Utilities for managing the second extended (ext2) filesystem.
- Summary
- The e2fsprogs package contains a number of utilities for creating,
checking, modifying, and correcting any inconsistencies in second
extended (ext2) filesystems. E2fsprogs contains e2fsck (used to
repair filesystem inconsistencies after an unclean shutdown), mke2fs
(used to initialize a partition to contain an empty ext2 filesystem),
debugfs (used to examine the internal structure of a filesystem, to
manually repair a corrupted filesystem, or to create test cases for
e2fsck), tune2fs (used to modify filesystem parameters), and most of
the other core ext2fs filesystem utilities.
You should install the e2fsprogs package if you need to manage the
performance of an ext2 filesystem.

- Avoid some potential inode cache coherency problems
- * Wed Feb 23 18:00:00 2005 Stephen C. Tweedie <sct{%}redhat{*}com> 1.35-12.1.EL4
- Reenable offline resize
+ fix interactions with online resize
- Many bugfixes from e2fsprogs-1.36:
+ Offline resize maintains the online resize inode
+ e2fsck fixes for online resize
+ fix mke2fs -[R|E] resize= option
+ fix removal of the xattr feature
+ fix offline resize byte swapping on bigendian hosts
+ dumpe2fs/tune2fs will show the reserved GDT blocks on a filesystem
- Fix determination of device size for devices >= 4TB (bugzilla #143907)
- Fix gdt verification on bigendian hosts for online resize
(bugzilla #142493, #142480)
- Never default to blocksize >4K in mke2fs
- Supercede old double-kfree fix (bugzilla #132707)
- Remove undesirable debug printfs from libe2fs resize code
- * Wed Dec 22 18:00:00 2004 Stephen C. Tweedie <sct{%}redhat{*}com> 1.35-11.6.EL4

online resize, and can result in corrupt filesystems.
