with 3 comments

Features implemented or bugfix since V0.53:
    1, Ext4 extent writing support (developed by ngkaho1234 @ gmail.com)
       See his repository for more details:
       http://github.com/ngkaho1234/Ext3Fsd.git
    2, Size manipulation and i/o path revised for support of indirect and
       extent-based mappings
    3, 16T volume supported (tested and confirmed with 4T volume)
       Version 0.53 and previous versions only support up to 2T volume
       ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/ext2fsd/bugs/134/
    4, Deletion acceleration: truncation optimized for indirect-based files
    5, Size-expanding disabled in IRP_MJ_CREATE for better performance.
       Windows sometimes would truncate file size back to 0
    6, Support Volume exclusive-open for e2fsprogs utils. Any attempts
       will be denied while EXT4 volume is being checked (e2fsck).
    7, FIXME:  Possible zero-content returned (requesting data from file tail)
    8, FIXME:  File ByteOffset updated for FO_SYNCHRONOUS_IO open (async i/o)
       ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/ext2fsd/bugs/133/
    9, FIXME:  don't do byte or range round up for paging i/o requests
       ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/ext2fsd/bugs/129/
   10, FIXME:  occasional block bitmap difference issue, cased by checksum
               caculation in uninit_bg group initializing
   11, e2fsprogs utils for Windows (e2fsck, mke2fs, tune2fs, debugfs) included
       [the followings are change-logs made upon V0.60]
   12, FIXME: Ext4 unwritten-extent supported to avoid possible data corruption
              MSB of ee_len field of unwritten extent is used as only a flag. It
              was mistakenly treated as extent length (block numbers) in V0.60
   13, FIXME: Manually clear file to zero for indirect-block file that is newly
              created but not yet written
   14, Renaming supported: with names only diffs in lower or upper cases
   15, I/o path revised to correctly handle ValidDataLength & unwritten holes

Supported Ext3/4 features by 0.61:
    1, flexible inode size: > 128 bytes, up to block size
    2, dir_index:    htree directory index
    3, filetype:     extra file mode in dentry
    4, large_file:   > 4G files supported
    5, sparse_super: super block backup in group descriptor
    6, uninit_bg:    fast fsck and group checksum
    7, extent:       full support with extending and shrinking.
    8, journal:      only support replay for internal journal
    9, flex_bg:      first flexible metadata group
Unsupported Ext3/4 features:
    1, journal: log-based operations, external journal
    2, EA (extended attributes), ACL support
    3, symlink creation
Features to be implemented in next release:
    1, Reparse point support (hardlink, symbolic link etc)
    2, mounted as given user: privilege checking with given uid & gid

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!

  3. I’m curious to find out what blog system you happen to be using?

    I’m having some minor security issues with my latest blog and I would like to find
    something more safeguarded. Do you have any solutions?
