* 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.

* this release has support for file systems >16TB. online resize requires kernel support which will hopefully be in kernel version 3.2. offline support is not yet available for >16TB, but will be coming
* this release has support for clustered allocation, which reduces the number of block (now cluster) bitmaps by allocating and deallocating space in contiguous power-of-2 collections of blocks, which are called clustered. This is a filesystem level feature called \'bigalloc\', which must be enabled when the filesystem is inititally formatted. It is not backwards compatible with older kernels.
* added support for the Multi-Mount Protection (MMP) feature
* The mke2fs and e2fsck programs now tries to use the punch hole command as a \"discard\" when operating on normal files.
* The resize2fs program now has support for a new online resize ioctl that can support file systems > 16TB, once it arrives in v3.x kernels.
* Added e4defrag tool which uses the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.
* Added support for journals larger than 2GB.
* Added internationalization support for libcom_err error table strings.
* Fixed various spelling mistakes found in various output strings found by I18N translators.
* Update translations: French, Chinese, Germany, Indonesian, Swedish, Vietnamese, Polish, Dutch, Czech. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #520985, [#620659])
* Updated/clarified man pages. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #639411, #642193, [#634883])

* Resize2fs -P will now refuse to print a minimum size if the file system is not clean.
* 2fsck will check for cases where the EOFBLOCKS_FL is set when it is not needed, and offer to clear it
* The mke2fs program now queries the kernel for the physical as well as the logical sector size, and will not allow a blocksize below the logical, and will strongly encourage a blocksize at least as big as the physical blocksize
* E2fsck now will completely skip time-based checks if the system clock looks insane or the option broken_system_clock is set in /etc/e2fsck.conf
* E2fsck now tests for extents that begin at physical block 0 and rejects them as invalid.
* The tune2fs program can now set the uninit_bg feature without requiring an fsck
* The tune2fs, dumpe2fs, and debugfs programs now support the new ext4 default mount options settings which were added in 2.6.35
* The resize2fs program now handles devices which are exactly 16T see more changes in RELEASE-NOTES- Use upstream de translations (regenerated in 1.41.13)

* Fix e2fsck so it will correctly find and detect duplicate directory entries for non-indexed directories
* Mke2fs will use BLKDISCARD to pre-discard all blocks on an SSD or thinly-provisioned storage device. This can be disabled using the -K option.
* Mke2fs now will obtain get device topology information from blkid and use it to populate the superblock stride and stripe sizes. It will also warn if the block device is misaligned see more changes in RELEASE-NOTES

* Thu Sep 03 2009 cooloAATTnovell.com- update to 1.41.9: \"All users of e2fsprogs are urged to upgrade to the 1.41.9 version as soon as possible\"
* Fix a bug in e2fsck routines for reallocating an inode table which could cause it to loop forever on an ext4 filesystem with the FLEX_BG filesystem feature with a relatively rare (and specific) filesystem corruption. This fix causes e2fsck to try to find space for a new portion of the inode table in the containing flex_bg, and if that fails, the new portion of the inode table will be allocated in any free space available in the filesystem.
* Make e2fsck less annoying by only asking for permission to relocate a block group\'s inode table once, instead of for every overlapping block. Similarly, only ask once to recompute the block group checksums, instead of once for each corrupted block group\'s checksum. see more changes in RELEASE-NOTES
