This is the first commit that renames e2fsprogs to e2fsprogs-core, makes the necessary changes to Makefiles, strips the FLAVORs that determined how to link or copy to /sbin. The latter feature will be placed into a new e2fsprogs port that just copies two files to /sbin. A followup 2/2 commit will then add the new e2fsprogs port. This is done so that Git can properly track the rename. While here, switch from FreeBSD's dd to GNU coreutils's dd in an attempt to fix sporadic m_offset self-test failures.

.SH NAME

|
.B fsck_ext2fs
|
|
\- compatibility wrapper for e2fsck
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.P
|
|
.B fsck_ext2fs
|
|
[\fB\-Fpfnyv\fR] [\fB\-b\fR \fIblock\fR]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.P
|
|
\fBfsck_ext2fs\fR maps the traditional FreeBSD \fBfsck_ffs\fR options to
|
|
options with the same functionality for \fBe2fsck,\fR runs \fBe2fsck\fR
|
|
and then maps its exit status to values that FreeBSD understands.
|
|
\fBe2fsck\fR is a utility to check and repair ext2 and ext3 file
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.IP \fB\-F\fR
|
|
(check foreground mode required) Immediately exits with status 1 to tell
|
|
\fBfsck\fR that ext2fs cannot be checked in the background. \fBfsck\fR
|
|
usually runs \fBfsck_*\fR programs twice, first with \fB\-F\fR to find
|
|
out if they can do background checking, then either immediately without
|
|
\fB\-F\fR for foreground checking or deferred in the background with
|
|
\fB\-B\fR.
|
|
.IP \fB\-p\fR
|
|
(preen mode) This option suppresses adding the \fB\-f\fR option (unless
|
|
\fB\-f\fR is also given) and adds the \fB\-p\fR option to the
|
|
\fBe2fsck\fR command line. This causes \fBe2fsck\fR to automatically fix
|
|
any filesystem problems that can safely be fixed without operator
|
|
intervention. Without this option given, \fBe2fsck\fR will be run with
|
|
the \fB\-f\fR option to force a check, since interactive scan and repair
|
|
mode is the default on FreeBSD, but not on Linux where \fBe2fsck\fR
|
|
comes from.
|
|
.IP \fB\-f\fR
|
|
(force check) This option forces the check of a clean file system while
|
|
preening and is passed to \fBe2fsck\fR verbatim.
|
|
.IP \fB\-n\fR
|
|
("no" mode) This option causes the file system to be opened in read-only
|
|
mode and assume "no" as answer to all questions. This is the only way to
|
|
safely run \fBfsck\fR on a mounted ext2 or ext3 file system. This option
|
|
is passed to \fBe2fsck\fR verbatim.
|
|
.IP \fB\-y\fR
|
|
("yes" mode) This option is passed verbatim to \fBe2fsck\fR and causes
|
|
it to assume "yes" as answer to all questions. This allows the
|
|
non-interactive use of e2fsck but is rather aggressive. Use with care.
|
|
.IP \fB\-v\fR
|
|
(verbose output) This option is passed verbatim to \fBe2fsck\fR and
|
|
causes it to verbosely report its progress.
|
|
.IP "\fB\-b\fR \fIblock\fR"
|
|
(use alternate super block) This option is passed verbatim to
|
|
\fBe2fsck\fR and selects an alternate super block, for use when the
|
|
primary super block has been damaged. Please see the \fBe2fsck\fR(8)
|
|
manual page for details.
|
|
|
|
.SH EXIT STATUS
|
|
If errors remain after \fBe2fsck\fR, an invalid option or too many
|
|
options have been specified, \fBe2fsck\fR was killed with a signal or
|
|
the \fIfork\fB system call failed, \fBfsck_ext2fs\fR exits with status
|
|
EXIT_FAILURE (usually 1). If \fBe2fsck\fR cannot be started, exits with
|
|
status 127. If the file system is clean after \fBe2fsck\fR operation,
|
|
exits with status EXIT_SUCCESS (0).
|
|
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
.P
|
|
This utility is merely meant as an adaptor so that \fBe2fsck\fR can be
|
|
run during the boot process, it does not support all options that
|
|
\fBe2fsck\fR offers. If you need one of its advanced options, please run
|
|
\fBe2fsck\fR directly.
|
|
|

.SH FILES
