- Compiler warning fixes for gnome-vfs and fuse modules. (Anton)
- Change volume mounting (actually device opening) to happen with
O_EXCL bit set so at least on Linux no one can change the device
block size under our feet. (Anton)
- Change volume mounting and mkntfs to set the device block size to the
sector size using BLKBSZSET ioctl (Linux only). This should be
optimal for performance and should fixes the bug of not being able to
create the backup boot sector if the number of sectors on the device
is odd, the sector size is 512 bytes, and the kernel is 2.4. (Anton)
- Enforce cluster size, mft record size, and index record size to be at
least equal to the sector size and verify they are still valid and in
particular display a warning message if the volume will not be
mountable by the kernel driver (it requires mft record size and index
record size to be below or equal to the system page size which we
determine using sysconf()). (Anton)
message was lost! )-:
Now again...
Monster commit from me due to lack of time. Sorry about that.
Features:
- Version to 1.10.0
- Update readme, etc ready for release.
- Update build system to suse linux 9.3 versions.
- Fix warnings appearing for me on suse 9.3 with --enable-warnings --enable-debug.
- Set attr_name to NULL in libntfs/attrib.c::__ntfs_attr_init() and fixup all
callers apropriately. Thanks to FlatCap/Rich for pointing this out.
- Determine endianness in ./configure and use that in addition to existing
mechanisms for determining endianness.
