Log Message:
sysutils/mtools: update to 4.0.35.
Improvements since the 4.0.34 release are:
- Fix cluster padding at end of file in batch mode
Improvements since the 4.0.33 release are:
- Fix mcopy -s issue
Improvements since the 4.0.32 release are:
- Fix support for partitions (broken in 4.0.30)
- Portability fixes for Solaris 10 and 11
- General simplification of configure script, and largefile
handling
- Tested and fixed for platforms *without* largefile support
- In cases where lseek works with 32-bit offsets, prefer lseek64
over llseek
- Fixed floppy sector size handling on platforms that are not
Linux
- Added support for image files on command line to mcat
Improvements since the 4.0.31 release are:
- Simplify algorithm that chooses filesystem parameters for
format, and align it more closely with what Win7 does
- Fix mformatting XDF when XDF not explicitly specified on
mformat command line
- easier way to enter sizes on mformat command line
(mformat -C -T 1440K)
- For small sizes, mformat assumes floppy geometries (heads 1 or
2, tracks 40 or 80)
- Handle attempts to mformat too small filesystems more
gracefully
- Enable minfo to print out additional mformat command line
parameters, if the present filesystem uses non-default
values for these
- minfo no longer prints bigsect if smallsect is set
- for remap filter, error when trying to write non-zero data
to unmapped sectors
- Fix misc compilation warnings occurring when disabling
certain features (largefiles, raw-term)
Improvements since the 4.0.30 release are:
- Move Linux-specific block device sizing code into
Linux-specific section of devices.c
- Error messages for all failure cases on fs_init
- Fix compilation without XDF support (OpenImage signature)
- Fix polarity of format_xdf command-line parameter of mformat
- In xdf_io retry enough times to actually succeed, even if
FDC was in a bad state before
- Remove useless buffer flushing triggered when giving up a
reference to a stream node that is still referenced
elsewhere.
- Clearer error message if neither size nor geometry of drive
to be mformatted is known
- In mformat, make Fs dynamically allocated rather than
on-stack, so as to be able to use utilities supplied by
stream.c
- Remove duplicate writing of backup boot sector
- Allow to infer geometry for mformat if only size is specified
- Protect against attempt to create zero-sized buffer
- Code simplification in mattrib
- Remove dead code in mpartition
Improvements since the 4.0.29 release are:
- Fixed XDF floppy disk access
- Fixed faulty behavior at end of image in mcat
- Device/Image size handling refactoring
- allow remap to write to zero-backed sectors (may happen if
buffer is flushed, and is not an error in that case)
- Raise an error when trying to mcopy multiple source files
over a single destination file (rather than directory)
- fix handling of "hidden" sectors (is a 2 byte quantity on
small disks, not 4 byte as previously assumed)
- Modernize partition support. Tuned consistency check to
actually check about important issues (such as overlapping
partitions) rather than stuff nobody else cares about
(alignment on entire cylinder boundaries)
- Move various "filter" options (partition, offset, swap,
scsi) into separate classes, rather than leaving almost
everything in plain_io
- Simplify and centralize geometry handling and LBA code
- Fix some more more compiler warnings
Improvements since the 4.0.28 release are:
- Fix bug in cluster preallocation, which was accidentally
introduced by the compiler warning "fixes" from v4_0_28
Improvements since the 4.0.27 release are:
- Support remapping of data (for not-quite linear floppy image
files, such as IBM 3174)
- Re-open floppy devices read-write if geometry parameters need
to be changed
- relax consistency checks in mpartition (partitions created
by current fdisk would almost never pass these checks)
- Fix some compiler warnings
Improvements since the 4.0.26 release are:
- Fix a type error in way how iconv functions are called
