Projects
-> Ext2fsd v0.45
is released. |
|
Thanks to Eddie Chu from Vinpowerdigital Inc for his persistent support, and lijw,
Nicola Barbini for valuable advices.
Modifications from V0.44:
Features implemented or bugs fixed:
1, set hidden attribute for all files starting with "."
2, update cache window size when writing to file end
3, reaper resources allocated during file creation
Features to be implemented in future:
1, Documents improvement: clear and
elaborate
2, Performance improvement, code
optimization
3, EXT3 features support (journal,
htree)
4, LVM support
5, Automatic check & update of
new versions
Since 0.38, Ext2fsd is much stable
even under heavy i/o
loads, both for reading and writing.
Performance and
stability are highly, improved especially
stability. A new
and strong era of Ext2Fsd in product shape is coming
:)
WARNINGS:
The driver may crash your system and
ruin your data
unexpectedly, since there might be software
conflicts
and I could only test it on some of the popular platforms.
You should use it with care and use it at your own risk!

Modifications from V0.39:
Bugs/Problems Fixed:
1, Directory inode isn't freed after directory deletion
2, Retrieval pointers implemented for extents mapping
3, Correct the handling of STATUS_CANT_WAIT. Vista's Cache
Manager often fails us on PingRead when copying bunch of
files/directories from ext2 volumes, and thus it results
in zero-data-content in copied files.
4, Optimize space allocation to minimize fragemnts

1, Documents improvement: clear and elaborate
2, Performance improvement, code
optimization
3, EXT3 features support (journal, htree)

5, Wrong inode type in directory entry for symbol links
6, Possible memory leak when failed to overwrite file
7, Memory leak in Ext2FreeMcb, it's counted but not freed.
8, Possible loss of inode/dentry update: Ext2WriteVolume might
miss the dirty windows with SECTOR_SIZE aligned borders
9, SpinLock related routines shouldn't be resident in
paged zone
10, Possible lost of files in directory listing

to be implemented in future:
1, Documents improvement: clear and elaborate

Modifications from V0.36:
Bugs/Problems Fixed:
1, files >=4G couldn't be copy&paste to ext2 volume, caused by a
hardcode limit in Ext2CreateFile
2, failure of "No enough memory" when renaming files under directories
it likely happens when renaming files under subdirectory with Samba
or Linux kernel CIFS.
3, possible deadlock in renaming with simultaneous access
4, possible wrong entry (hardlinks) deletion instead of itself: it's
rare to happen but pissible when renaming, moving or deleting files.
5, entry management routines enhancement
6, 64k-block support

1, Documents improvement: clear and elaborate
2, Performance improvement, code

Ext2fsd 0.36 is much stable even under heavy i/o loads, both for reading and writing. Performance and stability are highly improved,
especially stability. A new and strong era of Ext2Fsd in product shape
is coming :)
Here's still the same comment/advice for you: If you really need very heave writing with Ext2Fsd, you are strongly recommended to
create an ext2 partition as a swap between windows and linux.
