3 * Fixed compatibility with Zalman VE-200: now newly created directories do not
5 * Fixed heap corruption: malformed FS can use invalid sector or cluster size.
6 * Fixed hang on mount: malformed FS can have cyclic references in the clusters
11 * Switched from SCons to autotools.
12 * Added musl libc support [Brendan Heading].
13 * Worked around "FS is larger than device" error for memory cards formatted by
14 Panasonic Lumix cameras.
15 * Worked around "unknown entry type 0xe1" error for memory cards formatted by
20 * Fixed mkfs crash on some sectors-per-cluster (-s option) values.
24 * Relicensed the project from GPLv3+ to GPLv2+.
25 * OpenBSD support [Helg Bredow].
26 * Improved I/O errors handling.
27 * Implemented fsync() and fsyncdir().
28 * Fixed crash on Mac OS X 10.5 caused by non-standard use of realpath(). Also
29 fixed TrueCrypt disks unmounting.
30 * Avoid extra erase on writes to the end of a file. This should improve linear
32 * Allow arbitrary changing of lower 9 bits of mode. Allow owner/group changing
33 to the same owner/group. This fixes rsync.
34 * Fixed buffers overflows when handling lengthy file names.
35 * Fixed "real size does not equal to size" error on volumes with pagefile.sys.
36 * Fixed negative IUsed in "df -i" output.
40 * Fixed unexpected removal of a directory if it is moved into itself.
41 * Fixed "Operation not permitted" error on reading an empty file.
45 * Fixed crash when renaming a file within a single directory and a new name
47 * Fixed clusters allocation: a cluster beyond valid clusters range could be
49 * Fixed crash when a volume is unmounted while some files are open.
50 * SConscript now respects AR and RANLIB environment variables.
51 * Improved error handling.
55 * Enabled big_writes. This improves write speed (larger block size means less
56 switches between kernel- and user-space).
57 * Do BLKROGET ioctl to make sure the device is not read-only: after
58 "blockdev --setro" kernel still allows to open the device in read-write mode
63 * Fixed OS X 10.8 support.
64 * Switched to 64-bit inode numbers (now Mac OS X 10.5 or later is required).
65 * Switched from unmaintained MacFUSE to OSXFUSE (http://osxfuse.github.com).
66 * Fixed device size detection. Now mkfs works.
67 * Workarounded some utilities failures due to missing chmod() support.
68 * Disabled (senseless) permission checks made by FUSE.
72 * The mkfs utility can now create huge file systems (up to several exabytes).
73 * Fixed handling of characters beyond Basic Multilingual Plane.
74 * Echo messages to syslog only if stderr is not connected to a terminal.
78 * Out-of-the-box FreeBSD support (via ublio library).
79 * Fixed "missing EOD entry" error (could happen while reading directory that
80 consists of several clusters).
81 * Fixed interpretation of minutes field in files timestamps (minutes could be
82 displayed incorrectly).
83 * Fixed mtime seconds field initialization for newly created file (mtime could
84 be 1 sec less than creation time).
85 * SConscript now respects CC, CCFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables.
89 * Fixed write performance regression introduced in 0.9.4.
90 * Mount in read-only mode if the device is write-protected.
91 * Set ctime to mtime to ensure we don't break programs that rely on ctime
92 (e.g. rsync considered that all files are outdated) [Eldad Zack].
93 * Indicate that FS in not clean when it was not cleanly unmounted.
94 * Utilities are now compatible with GNU/Hurd.
95 * Fixed several memory leaks that could occur on error handling paths.
96 * Improved handling of corrupted file systems.
100 * Fixed erasing of the root directory cluster when creating a new FS with
101 mkexfatfs. This bug could cause mkexfatfs to produce invalid FS.
102 * Utilities are not linked with libfuse anymore.
103 * Ensure that the path being opened is either a device or a regular file.
107 * Introduced exfat-utils: dumpexfat, exfatfsck, mkexfatfs, exfatlabel.
108 * Fixed "Invalid argument" error while mounting a volume from a disk with sector size greater than 512 bytes.
109 * Wait for all data to be flushed to disk on unmount.
110 * Kernel cache is no longer flushed on open. This can slightly improve read performance by avoiding extra read requests from kernel to user-space.
111 * Allow to unmount volumes as user (fusermount -u) if they were mounted from the very same user [Tino Lange].
112 * Errors and warnings are now duplicated to syslog.
116 * Directories now can shrink.
117 * Improved timestamps resolution from 2 sec to 1 sec.
118 * Fixed timestamps displaying under Mac OS X when compiled for i386 or ppc.
119 * Fixed FS size displaying for non-GNU systems.
123 * Fixed a bug which could cause the whole directory to become unreadable after renaming a file in it.
124 * Support for Solaris and various *BSD [Albert Lee].
125 * Improved error handling on corrupted volumes.
126 * Improved allowed file name characters filter.
131 * Implemented automounting (util-linux-ng 2.18 or later is required).
132 * Fixed mounting when cluster bitmap is larger than expected.
133 * Fixed crash on statfs() when root directory contains error.
134 * Fixed bugs specific to big-endian machines.
