The defaults for mke2fs now call for 256 byte inodes for all file systems (with
the exception of file systems for the GNU Hurd, which only supports 128 byte
inodes). Creating non-Hurd file systems with 128 byte inodes will trigger a
warning message to make sure users are aware of the potential problems of using
small/legacy inode sizes.
The bigalloc feature is now considered supported if the cluster size no more
than 16 times the block size. So the mke2fs program has been changes to only
warn if the cluster size is larger than that.
Fixes:
- E2fsck now checks to make sure directory entries do not reference internal
quota inodes.
- E2image now includes the quota inodes when creating file system image, since
they are part of the file system metadata.
- E2fsck now properly accounts the quota usage of the project quota file.
- Fix a regression introduced in 1.64.3 where attempting to create a file system
image using mke2fs into a non-existent file would fail.
- Fix mke2fs to correctly create Posix ACL's on big-endian systems when copying
files from a directory hierarchy.
- Updated and clarified the resize2fs man pages.
