2 | |
3 | Changes between versions 0.4b19 and 0.4b20 (released ???????????????) | |
4 | ===================================================================== | |
5 | ||
bd731171 SP |
6 | 1. Fixed a small compilation problem due to a change |
7 | in the definintion of the struct sigaction in | |
8 | glibc 2.0 / libc5. Thanks to Gunther Schlegel | |
9 | <schlegel@riege.de> for reporting the bug and to | |
10 | Dave Platt <dplatt@snulbug.mtview.ca.us> for suggesting | |
11 | a fix. | |
1099d48c SP |
12 | |
13 | 2. Modified the label and uuid analysis in order to be | |
14 | self-contained (independant of kernel/libc headers). This | |
15 | should fix the compile with older kernel/libc headers and | |
16 | will preserve the functionality. Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann | |
17 | <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> for reporting the bug. | |
18 | ||
1cd75c4c SP |
19 | 3. The 'exclude inode' option, if applied to a directory |
20 | inode, excludes now correctly all the leaves of this | |
21 | directory. Thanks to John R. Dennison | |
22 | <gerdesas@users.sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
f1d86882 | 23 | |
d56b7aa4 SP |
24 | Changes between versions 0.4b18 and 0.4b19 (released August 20, 2000) |
25 | ===================================================================== | |
f1d86882 SP |
26 | |
27 | 1. Fixed the signal handling in dump (which I broke in 0.4b17) | |
28 | which was causing several strange dump failures (dump | |
29 | hanged or segmentation faults etc). | |
ddf0df5b | 30 | |
65bceb9b SP |
31 | 2. Specified the default blocksize in the dump man page. |
32 | ||
57b19d7f SP |
33 | 3. Changed two info messages of restore to be written on stdout |
34 | instead of stderr in order to leave stderr only for errors | |
35 | or warnings. Thanks to Stephen Atwell | |
36 | <satwell@urbana.css.mot.com> for the suggestion. | |
37 | ||
4f94452b SP |
38 | 4. Corrected an off by one calculation which prevented |
39 | dumping a directory having a 1 character name length. | |
40 | Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> | |
41 | for reporting the bug. | |
42 | ||
79e31865 SP |
43 | 5. Reinforce dump in order to allow only level 0 and no |
44 | -u option when dumping a subdirectory, and document | |
45 | this in the man page. Thanks to Bernhard Erdmann | |
46 | <bernhard.erdmann@gmx.de> for reporting the bug. | |
47 | ||
9be511dc SP |
48 | 6. Fixed a small harmless bug in restore which caused |
49 | in some conditions hard links to be restored several | |
50 | times (therefore generation some warning messages). | |
51 | Thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@well.com> for | |
52 | reporting the bug. | |
53 | ||
3e815572 | 54 | 7. Updated the RPM spec file to the latest RedHat version, |
1d568d1b | 55 | providing FHS packaging and other cosmetic changes. |
1099d48c | 56 | You will need RPM version >= 3.0.5 in order to build the RPM. |
1d568d1b | 57 | |
3e815572 SP |
58 | 8. Updated the configure script to check for libtermcap |
59 | before checking for libreadline, because we need this | |
60 | library in order to compile the readline support. | |
61 | ||
8954518f SP |
62 | 9. Made dump understand the LABEL= and UUID= notation |
63 | both in /etc/fstab and on the command line. Note that | |
64 | you will need the /proc filesystem in order to use | |
65 | these notations. Thanks to Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> | |
66 | for providing the patch. | |
67 | ||
8cca05cc SP |
68 | Changes between versions 0.4b17 and 0.4b18 (released June 30, 2000) |
69 | =================================================================== | |
ddf0df5b SP |
70 | |
71 | 1. Fixed a potential buffer overflow in restore. Thanks | |
72 | to Stan Bubrouski <satan@fastdial.net> for reporting | |
73 | the bug. | |
30a43325 | 74 | |
64bb207a SP |
75 | 2. Fixed a readline-related bug which prevented |
76 | 'cat DUMPFILE | restore -i -f -' from working. Thanks | |
77 | to Charles Karney <karney@users.sourceforge.net> | |
78 | for the bug report. | |
79 | ||
d572dbfd SP |
80 | 3. Changed a few "panic" into "exit", causing restore to |
81 | be more stable against some attacks (like the last one | |
82 | reported on Bugtraq, although the last version of restore | |
83 | was not vulnerable - just dumped core). Thanks to | |
84 | Andreas Hasenack <andreas@conectiva.com.br> for reporting | |
85 | the bugs to me. | |
86 | ||
882090d1 SP |
87 | 4. Removed the suid-root bit on dump and restore in the |
88 | default build (and generated RPMs). It should be safer | |
89 | now. Users who need the suid-root capabilities in order | |
90 | to make network backups should read first the man page | |
91 | of dump and enable the suid bit manually. | |
92 | ||
5e04cc92 SP |
93 | 5. Added -ltermcap to the compile parameters for restore |
94 | when using readline support, in order to make the compile | |
95 | process work on some systems (SuSE ?). Thanks to | |
96 | Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for reporting the bug. | |
97 | ||
ac443b63 | 98 | Changes between versions 0.4b16 and 0.4b17 (released June 1st, 2000) |
30a43325 SP |
99 | ==================================================================== |
100 | ||
101 | 1. The -F script is called now *only* at the end of a tape, | |
49023a9d | 102 | not at the end of the dump. Thanks to Christian Haul |
30a43325 SP |
103 | <haul@informatik.tu-darmstadt.de> for the bug report. |
104 | ||
d8574d45 SP |
105 | Normally, the device name and the current volume number |
106 | are passed on the command line of the script. However, | |
107 | if you want the old style script (with no arguments | |
108 | passed on the command line), you can enable it in | |
109 | configure with the --enable-oldstylefscript. | |
110 | ||
30a43325 SP |
111 | 2. Use posix signal handling to preserve dump functionality |
112 | with libc5. Thanks to Jeff Johnson <jbj@redhat.com> for | |
113 | the patch. | |
d65ed175 | 114 | |
3d78f5f2 SP |
115 | 3. Made the exit code of restore in case of a 'C'ompare |
116 | command reflect the result of the compare. An exit status | |
117 | of 0 means the dump archive is correct, 1 means tape errors, | |
d8574d45 SP |
118 | 2 means that some files were modified. Thanks to Kenneth Porter |
119 | <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion. | |
3d78f5f2 | 120 | |
d8574d45 | 121 | 4. Made (finally) quotes work in interactive restore. |
386d48c0 | 122 | |
a110deb5 | 123 | 5. Small fixes in order to allow dump to compile with a |
d8574d45 SP |
124 | really old e2fsprogs version. Thanks to Ian Zimmerman |
125 | <itz@speakeasy.org> for the bug report. | |
a110deb5 | 126 | |
c38e5b6a SP |
127 | 6. Add GNU readline capabilities to interactive restore. |
128 | Use configure's --enable-readline flag to enable this feature. | |
d8574d45 SP |
129 | Thanks to Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for the |
130 | suggestion. | |
131 | ||
132 | 7. Do the compare on the fly in restore 'C' mode (this will | |
133 | allow not to exhaust the available /tmp space when | |
134 | ccmparing large files). Thanks to Kenneth Porter | |
135 | <shiva@well.com> for the suggestion. | |
c38e5b6a | 136 | |
107a347c SP |
137 | Changes between versions 0.4b15 and 0.4b16 (released March 11, 2000) |
138 | ==================================================================== | |
d65ed175 SP |
139 | |
140 | 1. Fixed some several duplicate 'DUMP: DUMP:' in the | |
141 | output of dump. | |
d3393043 | 142 | |
cbc94239 SP |
143 | 2. Corrected the estimation of blocks to dump. Note that |
144 | this is still wrong for large directory inodes, due | |
145 | to the size of a BSD directory entry on the tape | |
146 | (estimation is based on the size of the ext2 directory, | |
147 | which is smaller because it doesn't contain the null | |
148 | character at the end). | |
149 | ||
150 | 3. Made dump report the total number of MB written to | |
151 | tape at the end of run. Thanks to W. Reilly Cooley | |
152 | <wcooley@nakedape.cc> for the patch. | |
153 | ||
08db2b86 SP |
154 | 4. Added the -X option to restore giving the possibility |
155 | to read the names of the files to be extracted/listed | |
1a05d45d SP |
156 | from a text file (in addition of the command line). |
157 | Thanks to Dejan Muhamedagic <dejan@quant-x.com> for the | |
158 | patch. | |
08db2b86 | 159 | |
365a7c7c SP |
160 | 5. Added the device name and the current volume number |
161 | as arguments to the end of tape script (dump -F option). | |
162 | ||
24ea1fb9 SP |
163 | 6. Made the multi-volume dump work again (after having |
164 | broken it in 0.4b15). | |
165 | ||
2f7e72ce SP |
166 | Changes between versions 0.4b14 and 0.4b15 (released March 2, 2000) |
167 | =================================================================== | |
d3393043 SP |
168 | |
169 | 1. Added a prompt command in interactive restore mode. Thanks | |
170 | to Andreas Dilger <adilger@home.com> for the patch. | |
d6f78b13 | 171 | |
92a9bf12 SP |
172 | 2. Fixed a buffer overflow problem in dump (caused by |
173 | not checking the size of the filesystem parameter). | |
174 | Thanks to Kim Yong-jun <loveyou@hackerslab.org> for | |
175 | reporting this on Bugtraq (and to several dump users | |
176 | who forwarded me his mail). | |
177 | ||
0d7af9c5 SP |
178 | 3. Added the '-F script' option to dump in order to |
179 | launch a script at the end of each tape (to be used | |
180 | with a tape changer, or to notify the sysadmin by | |
181 | pager etc.). | |
182 | ||
183 | 4. Fixed a bug in restore compare code caused by the changes | |
184 | I made in 0.4b14. | |
185 | ||
186 | 5. Fixed the treatment of options using the old BSD syntax | |
187 | in both dump and restore. | |
188 | ||
688653ea SP |
189 | Changes between versions 0.4b13 and 0.4b14 (released February 10, 2000) |
190 | ======================================================================= | |
d6f78b13 SP |
191 | |
192 | 1. Fixed a bug in dump which may have caused invalid deleted | |
193 | directories to be dumped out if they were deleted after the | |
194 | mapping pass. This could occure on active filesystem and lead | |
195 | to heap corruption (causing dump malfunction in many possible ways). | |
196 | Thanks to Jan Sanislo <oystr@cs.washington.edu> for finding this | |
197 | bug and submitting the patch. | |
ae58c8da | 198 | |
a2c9bd28 SP |
199 | 2. Fixed the handling of the filesystem parameter in dump. A |
200 | '/mnt/disk' parameter caused the disk contents to be dumped, | |
201 | but a '/mnt/disk/' parameter caused the mountpoint directory | |
202 | to be dumped (generally an empty directory). | |
203 | ||
204 | 3. Improved the output of dump in order to tell which directory | |
205 | it is currently dumping (when dumping a subtree). | |
206 | ||
20c345aa SP |
207 | 4. Added the '-e' exclude inode option to dump. Thanks to |
208 | Isaac Chuang <ike@isl.stanford.edu> for contributing with the patch. | |
209 | ||
d8476fa5 SP |
210 | 5. Added a REPORTING-BUGS file in order to provide a guide |
211 | on how to correctly report a bug in dump/restore. | |
212 | ||
c60338a5 SP |
213 | 6. Fixed a restore problem when restoring a hard link to an inode |
214 | having the immutable or append-only attribute set. Thanks to | |
215 | Ambrose Li <acli@mingpaoxpress.com> for submitting the patch. | |
216 | ||
8eb05297 SP |
217 | 7. Fixed a compatibility problem between dumps made on little |
218 | endian machines (the format was correct) and big endian | |
219 | machines (the format was incorrect). This fix break the | |
220 | compatibility with the older dumps made on big endian | |
221 | machines (sparc, m86k, ppc etc). For the first time in | |
222 | linux dump's history (I believe), the dumps made by *BSD, | |
223 | Linux/alpha, Linux/sparc and Linux/x86 are compatible, | |
224 | so interchangeable. Thanks to Rob Cermak | |
225 | <cermak@ahab.rutgers.edu> for submitting the bug and | |
226 | helping me test the fix. | |
227 | ||
228 | 8. Fixed the way dump reports the remaining percent/time, if | |
229 | the number of blocks actually dumped exceeds the estimated | |
230 | number of blocks. Thanks to Jean-Paul van der Jagt | |
231 | <jeanpaul@dutepp0.et.tudelft.nl> for reporting the bug. | |
232 | ||
d4b74b5c SP |
233 | Changes between versions 0.4b12 and 0.4b13 (released January 21, 2000) |
234 | ====================================================================== | |
2f9a0c5c SP |
235 | |
236 | 1. Small Y2K fix in the man pages :). Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski | |
237 | <sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug. | |
238 | ||
6dda05e4 SP |
239 | 2. Removed the requirement to build the RPM as root from the |
240 | spec file. Thanks to Christian Weisgerber | |
241 | <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de> for submitting this. | |
242 | ||
8d957ae7 | 243 | 3. Fixed a bug in dump related to the 'filetype' feature of ext2fs, |
f346e363 SP |
244 | causing dump to block when dumping really huge filesystems. |
245 | Many thanks to Patrik Schindler <poc@pocnet.net> for | |
246 | helping me find this bug. | |
247 | ||
8d957ae7 | 248 | 4. Fixed the treatment for an interrupt signal when dump access |
b80c25f8 SP |
249 | the remote tape through RSH. Thanks to Christian Weisgerber |
250 | <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de> for providing the patch. | |
251 | ||
8d957ae7 SP |
252 | 5. Fixed a bug which was causing dump/restore to display |
253 | garbage characters instead of the remote host name. | |
254 | ||
2f9a0c5c | 255 | Changes between versions 0.4b11 and 0.4b12 (released January 8, 2000) |
df172bbb | 256 | ===================================================================== |
ae58c8da SP |
257 | |
258 | 1. Small fix in the dump man page. Thanks to Thorsten Kukuk | |
259 | <kukuk@suse.de> for submitting the patch. | |
2ed89fda | 260 | |
a29c23cc SP |
261 | 2. Fix for the exit code when using the size estimate option of |
262 | dump. Thanks to Matti Taskinen <mkt@rni.helsinki.fi> for | |
263 | submitting the patch. | |
264 | ||
2e682895 SP |
265 | 3. Handle EINTR in atomical reads/writes in dump, which was causing |
266 | dump to fail on some systems. Thanks to Eric Jergensen | |
267 | <eric@dvns.com> for reporting the bug and submitting the patch. | |
268 | ||
269 | 4. Handle more than 16 characters for the device names in dumpdates. | |
270 | (up to 255 now). Thanks to Rainer Clasen <bj@ncc.cicely.de> for | |
271 | tracking down the problem and proposing the solution. | |
272 | ||
273 | 5. Fixed a bug in dump which prevented the creation of the | |
274 | dumpdates file when doing a 0-level dump without already | |
275 | having a dumpdates file. Thanks to Patrik Schindler | |
276 | <poc@pocnet.net> for reporting the bug. | |
277 | ||
278 | 6. Changed the way dump 'S' flag reports the size estimate | |
279 | from number of blocks into bytes (making it compatible | |
280 | with the Solaris version, and simplifying things for | |
281 | amanda users). Thanks to Jason L Tibbitts III | |
282 | <tibbs@math.uh.edu> for reporting the bug. | |
283 | ||
0d0bc326 SP |
284 | 7. Fixed a compatibility problem in linux/alpha dump tape format. |
285 | Now the linux/alpha dump are (again) compatible with the | |
286 | other dump formats. But this breaks compatibility with | |
287 | older dumps made on alpha. Thanks to Mike Tibor | |
288 | <tibor@lib.uaa.alaska.edu> for helping me in finding this bug. | |
289 | ||
cf9aab8e | 290 | Changes between versions 0.4b10 and 0.4b11 (released December 5, 1999) |
2ed89fda SP |
291 | ====================================================================== |
292 | ||
293 | 1. Added a '--enable-kerberos' to configure. | |
5c1faba5 | 294 | |
144a6db1 | 295 | 2. Added a 'S' option to dump which determines the amount of space |
5c729713 | 296 | that is needed to perform the dump without actually doing it, similar |
144a6db1 SP |
297 | to the Sun's ufsdump 'S' option. Patch contributed by Rob Cermak |
298 | <cermak@ahab.rutgers.edu>. | |
299 | ||
677ee424 SP |
300 | 3. Added a 'M' multi-volume option to dump and restore which enables |
301 | dumping to multiple files (useful when dumping to an ext2 | |
302 | partition to make several dump files in order to bypass the 2GB | |
303 | file size limitation). The 'f' argument is treated as a prefix and | |
304 | the output files will be named <prefix>001, <prefix>002 etc. With | |
305 | the 'M' flag, restore automatically selects the right file without | |
306 | asking to enter a new tape each time. | |
307 | ||
7fbb9b02 | 308 | 4. Fixed a memory leak which was causing dump to grow very big |
a29c23cc SP |
309 | (270MB when dumping a 10GB filesystem...). Thanks to Jason |
310 | Fearon <jasonf@netrider.org.au> for reporting the bug. | |
7fbb9b02 | 311 | |
27026010 SP |
312 | Changes between versions 0.4b9 and 0.4b10 (released November 21, 1999) |
313 | ====================================================================== | |
5c1faba5 SP |
314 | |
315 | 1. Make configure test if the system glob routines support | |
316 | extended syntax (ALTDIRFUNC). If not, use the internal glob | |
a95c4c36 SP |
317 | routines instead of system ones. Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski |
318 | <sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug | |
319 | and helping me resolve this and other minor libc5 compiling | |
320 | glitches. | |
08ebf8d7 | 321 | |
c5886bd7 SP |
322 | 2. Fix a problem when dumping a ext2fs with the 'filetype' |
323 | feature enabled. Thanks to Patrick J. LoPresti | |
324 | <patl@cag.lcs.mit.edu> for reporting the bug and to | |
325 | Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> for providing the patch. | |
326 | ||
4267a8ad SP |
327 | 3. Made the nodump flag work on directories. A directory which |
328 | has the nodump flag gets never dumped, regardless of its | |
329 | contents. | |
330 | ||
c930abff SP |
331 | 4. Integrate a patch from Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> |
332 | which allows dump on an active ext3 filesystem. However, this | |
333 | is a "quick and dirty" patch which enables backup of an ext3 | |
334 | filesystem through the ext2 compatibility (by ignoring the | |
335 | NEEDS_RECOVERY bit). The journal file is not recognized and | |
336 | it is dumped (it should not). | |
337 | ||
338 | 5. Test the superblock compatibility flags when dumping, in order | |
339 | to be sure that we know how to deal with specific features. | |
340 | ||
08ebf8d7 SP |
341 | Changes between versions 0.4b8 and 0.4b9 (released November 5, 1999) |
342 | ==================================================================== | |
343 | ||
344 | 1. Use lchown instead of chown, fixing a possible security problem | |
345 | when restoring symlinks (a malicious user could use this | |
346 | to deliberately corrupt the ownership of important system files). | |
347 | Thanks to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for detecting | |
348 | this and providing the patch. | |
ec387a12 | 349 | |
c154548c SP |
350 | Changes between versions 0.4b7 and 0.4b8 (released November 3, 1999) |
351 | ==================================================================== | |
ec387a12 | 352 | |
df9ae507 SP |
353 | 1. Put dump sources under CVS, added Id tags in all files so |
354 | one can use 'ident' on binary files. | |
355 | ||
356 | 2. Added the dump/restore version in the usage text so one can | |
357 | easily verify the version he is using. | |
ec387a12 | 358 | |
3072400e SP |
359 | 3. Small patch from Nuno Oliveira <nuno@eq.uc.pt> which fixes |
360 | a va_start/va_end problem on linux-ppc (always call va_start | |
361 | va_end in pairs each time we use a vararg function). | |
362 | ||
fa58b58d SP |
363 | 4. Added again the DT_* constants because old libc does not |
364 | contain them :(. Thanks to Eric Maisonobe <virnet@nat.fr> | |
365 | for submitting the bug report. | |
366 | ||
f34aca37 SP |
367 | 5. Use ext2fs_llseek instead of llseek. With recent e2fsprogs |
368 | this should enable dumping big (huge) filesystems. | |
369 | ||
370 | 6. Added the RSH environment variable in order to be able to | |
0c62667d SP |
371 | use a rsh replacement like ssh when doing remote backups (and |
372 | bypass the security limitations of rcmd). Now you can do remote | |
373 | backups without being root (or making dump setuid root). | |

f34aca37 | 375 | 7. Modified again the way dumpdates works. For incremental dumps, |
60f5ede9 SP |
376 | we need to read dumpdates even if we are not using 'u' option. |
377 | Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for his ideas on how | |
378 | this should work. | |

380 | Changes between versions 0.4b6 and 0.4b7 (released October 8, 1999) |
381 | =================================================================== | |
382 | ||
383 | 1. Removed the 'k' flag from the restore 'about' text if kerberos | |
384 | was not compiled in. | |
385 | ||
386 | 2. Prototyped (f)setflags from e2fsprogs and corrected the calls | |
387 | to them (fsetflags takes a char*, setflags an open fd!). | |
388 | ||
389 | 3. (f)setflags is called only if the flags aren't empty. If the | |
390 | file is a special file, a warning is printed, because changing | |
391 | flags implies opening the device. Normally, a special file | |
392 | should not have any flag... (Debian bug #29775, patch provided | |
393 | by Abhijit Dasgupta <abhijit@ans.net>). | |
394 | ||
395 | 4. Made possible to dump a file system not mentioned in /etc/fstab. | |
396 | (Debian bug #11904, patch provided by Eirik Fuller <eirik@netcom.com>). | |
397 | ||
398 | 5. Changed the default behaviour to not create dumpdates | |
399 | unless 'u' option is specified. Removed the old "debian-patch" | |
400 | which provided the same thing. (Debian bug #38136, #33818). | |
401 | ||
402 | 6. Removed all those dump*announce, since they were getting old... | |
403 | ||
404 | 7. Added warning messages if dumpdates does not exist and | |
405 | when an inferior level dump does not exist (except for a level 0 | |
406 | dump). | |
407 | ||
408 | 8. Debugged the glob calls in interactive mode: restore used a | |
409 | dirent struct which was different from the /usr/include/dirent.h | |
410 | one (this used to work, is it a glibc2 change?), so none of the | |
411 | compat glob (which used /usr/include/dirent.h) or the system glob | |
412 | worked. Restore use now the system dirent (and the system | |
413 | DT_* constants), which are compatible with BSD ones. | |
414 | ||
415 | 9. Added a configure flag (--with-dumpdatespath) to specify | |
416 | the location of dumpdates file. By default, it is | |
417 | /etc/dumpdates. | |
418 | ||
419 | 10. Added the "AUTHOR" and "AVAILABILITY" sections and | |
420 | included the current date/version in man pages. | |
421 | ||
422 | 11. Corrected the estimation of remaining time when | |
423 | the operator doesn't change the tapes quickly enough. This | |
424 | was an old bug, I thought I corrected it, and discovered | |
425 | that in fact it was corrected in two different places, so | |
426 | the results canceled each other... | |
427 | ||
428 | Changes between versions 0.4b5 and 0.4b6 (released October 1, 1999) | |
429 | =================================================================== | |
ddd2ef55 SP |
430 | |
431 | 1. Integrated multiple patches from RedHat, Debian and SuSE: | |
432 | ||
433 | - tweak dump/itime.c to not try to read dumpdates if the 'u' option | |
434 | isn't specified. | |
435 | - several fixes in the man pages. | |
436 | - update the default tape device to /dev/st0. | |
437 | - many updates for Linux Alpha (byte ordering, size_t etc). | |
438 | - buffer overruns. | |
439 | - use environment variable for TMPDIR (instead of /tmp). | |
440 | - use sigjmp_buf instead of jmp_buf (RedHat bug #3260). | |
441 | - workaround egcs bug (RedHat bugs #4281 and #2989). | |
442 | - wire $(OPT) throughout Makefile's. | |
443 | ||
8d4197bb SP |
444 | 2. Upgrade the dump revision to 1, making possible to dump filesystems |
445 | made with e2fsprogs-1.15 or newer. Nothing seems to break... | |
ddd2ef55 | 446 | |
8d4197bb SP |
447 | 3. Fix some compile warnings, prototype all functions. |
448 | ||
449 | 4. Use glibc err/glob instead of internal compatibility | |
ddd2ef55 SP |
450 | routines (only if available). |
451 | ||
8d4197bb SP |
452 | 5. Fix a compile error on Linux 2.2.7 / libc5 (5.4.44) (patch provided |
453 | by Bernhard Sadlowski <sadlowsk@mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de>). | |
454 | ||
455 | Changes between versions 0.4b4 and 0.4b5 (released September 22, 1999) | |
456 | ====================================================================== | |
b45f51d6 SP |
457 | |
458 | 1. Integrated the changes from FreeBSD-3.1-RELEASE | |
459 | (mostly bug fixes, buffer overruns, dump has now an "automatic | |
460 | tape length calculation" flag, dump/restore can use kerberos now | |
461 | (this is NOT tested), use environment variables for TAPE and | |
462 | RMT etc.). | |
463 | ||
464 | 2. Integrated three RedHat patches ("glibc", "kernel" and "bread" patches) | |
465 | ||
466 | 3. Corrected a bug in restore when using 'C' option with multi-volumes | |
467 | tapes (files splited accros two tapes give "size changed" errors | |
468 | when comparing). | |
469 | ||
470 | 4. Corrected the long standing bug when dumping multiple tapes. | |
471 | This works for me, needs further testing. | |
1227625a | 472 | |
8d4197bb SP |
473 | Changes between versions 0.4b3 and 0.4b4 (released January 17, 1997) |
474 | ==================================================================== | |
1227625a SP |
475 | |
476 | 1. Dump now runs correctly on kernels 2.1.x | |
477 | Fix made by Gerald Peters <gapeters@worldnet.att.net> | |
478 | ||
479 | Changes between versions 0.4b2 and 0.4b3 | |
480 | ======================================== | |
481 | ||
482 | 1. Use realpath() if available | |
483 | ||
484 | 2. Report statistics | |
485 | ||
486 | Changes between versions 0.4b1 and 0.4b2 | |
487 | ======================================== | |
488 | ||
489 | 1. Fixed the bug fix from Greg Lutz (I had made a mistake when integrating | |
490 | the patch) | |
491 | ||
492 | 2. Fixed restore to make it able to read FreeBSD 2.x dumps again | |
493 | ||
494 | 3. Fixed configure.in to correctly handle --enable-rmt | |
495 | ||
496 | Changes between versions 0.3 and 0.4b1 | |
497 | ====================================== | |
498 | ||
499 | 1. Integrated the changes from 4.4BSD-Lite2 | |
500 | ||
501 | 2. Integrated the patches from Debian and Red Hat | |
502 | ||
503 | 3. Portability changes: use the __u32, __u16, __s32, and __s16 types | |
504 | ||
505 | 4. Changed dump to use the Ext2fs library to get block addresses. This | |
506 | should solve the endianness problem on SparcLinux. | |
507 | ||
508 | 5. Created a configure.in file (shamelessly stolen from the e2fsprogs | |
509 | distribution's one) to use autoconf | |
510 | ||
511 | 6. Fixed a few minor bugs | |
512 | ||
513 | Changes between versions 0.2e and 0.2f | |
514 | ====================================== | |
515 | ||
516 | 1. Added the creation of named pipes (fifos) in restore. | |
517 | ||
518 | 2. Added the -N flag in the restore manual page. | |
519 | ||
520 | 3. Added the file kernel.patch which contains the llseek() optimization | |
521 | patch for 1.2.x kernels. | |
522 | ||
523 | 4. Fixed a bug in the restoration of symbolic links: owner and group were | |
524 | not restored. | |
525 | ||
526 | 5. Integrated some changes from FreeBSD 2.2. | |
527 | ||
528 | 6. Added a call to ftruncate() after restoring each file to restore | |
529 | correctly files ending by a hole. | |
530 | ||
531 | Changes between versions 0.2d and 0.2e | |
532 | ====================================== | |
533 | ||
534 | 1. Fixed a bug in the "set owner/mode" process. Every file was restored | |
535 | with owner = root (0) and group = root/wheel/whatever (0). | |
536 | ||
537 | Changes between versions 0.2c and 0.2d | |
538 | ====================================== | |
539 | ||
540 | 1. Dump is now able to backup 2GB+ filesystems. | |
541 | ||
542 | 2. Dump and restore can now be linked as static binaries. | |
543 | ||
544 | Changes between versions 0.2b and 0.2c | |
545 | ====================================== | |
546 | ||
547 | 1. Fixed a bug when dumping ``slow'' (i.e. normal) symbolic links. | |
548 | ||
549 | Changes between versions 0.2a and 0.2b | |
550 | ====================================== | |
551 | ||
552 | 1. Really fixed the bug that I should have corrected in 0.2a. | |
553 | ||
554 | 2. Enabled optimization again. | |
555 | ||
556 | Changes between versions 0.2 and 0.2a | |
557 | ===================================== | |
558 | ||
559 | 1. Disabled the optimization during compilation. | |
560 | ||
561 | Changes between versions 0.1 and 0.2 | |
562 | ==================================== | |
563 | ||
564 | 1. Fixed a bug in fstab.c which caused a null pointer to be stored in | |
565 | the fs_type field (actually, I modified the file fstab.c to make it | |
566 | use the mntent functions). | |
567 | ||
568 | 2. Dump and restore now use a 4.3 BSD compatible dump format. Backups | |
569 | made by dump should be readable by the BSD restore and backups made | |
570 | by the BSD dump should be readable by restore. Unfortunately, this | |
571 | means that the dump format has changed between version 0.1 and version | |
572 | 0.2 :-( | |
573 | ||
574 | 3. Dump is now able to backup a subtree, it is no longer limited to whole | |
575 | filesystems like the BSD version. | |
576 | ||
577 | 4. Dump now uses ext2_llseek() so it is able to backup filesystems bigger | |
578 | than 2 GB. | |
579 | ||
580 | Changes between versions 0.0 and 0.1 | |
581 | ==================================== | |
582 | ||
583 | 1. Now create links rdump and rrestore during the `make install' step. | |
584 | ||
585 | 2. Linux port specific bugs added to the manual pages | |
586 | ||
587 | 3. Incorrect estimation of the number of tapes blocks fixed when doing | |
588 | incremental backups. | |
589 | ||
590 | 4. Better ls-like format in restore in interactive mode. |
