+2.1.20 - Fix a stupid bug in ntfs_attr_reinit_search_ctx().
+
+ - Fix stupid bug in fs/ntfs/attrib.c::ntfs_attr_reinit_search_ctx()
+ where we did not clear ctx->al_entry but it was still set due to
+ changes in ntfs_attr_lookup() and ntfs_external_attr_find() in
+ particular.
+ - Fix another stupid bug in fs/ntfs/attrib.c::ntfs_external_attr_find()
+ where we forgot to unmap the extent mft record when we had finished
+ enumerating an attribute which caused a bug check to trigger when the
+ VFS calls ->clear_inode.
+
+2.1.19 - Many cleanups, improvements, and a minor bug fix.
+
+ - Update ->setattr (fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_setattr()) to refuse to
+ change the uid, gid, and mode of an inode as we do not support NTFS
+ ACLs yet.
+ - Remove BKL use from ntfs_setattr() syncing up with the rest of the
+ kernel.
+ - Get rid of the ugly transparent union in fs/ntfs/dir.c::ntfs_readdir()
+ and ntfs_filldir() as per suggestion from Al Viro.
+ - Change '\0' and L'\0' to simply 0 as per advice from Linus Torvalds.
+ - Update ->truncate (fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_truncate()) to check if the
+ inode size has changed and to only output an error if so.
+ - Rename fs/ntfs/attrib.h::attribute_value_length() to ntfs_attr_size().
+ - Add le{16,32,64} as well as sle{16,32,64} data types to
+ fs/ntfs/types.h.
+ - Change ntfschar to be le16 instead of u16 in fs/ntfs/types.h.
+ - Add le versions of VCN, LCN, and LSN called leVCN, leLCN, and leLSN,
+ respectively, to fs/ntfs/types.h.
+ - Update endianness conversion macros in fs/ntfs/endian.h to use the
+ new types as appropriate.
+ - Do proper type casting when using sle64_to_cpup() in fs/ntfs/dir.c
+ and index.c.
+ - Add leMFT_REF data type to fs/ntfs/layout.h.
+ - Update all NTFS header files with the new little endian data types.
+ Affected files are fs/ntfs/layout.h, logfile.h, and time.h.
+ - Do proper type casting when using ntfs_is_*_recordp() in
+ fs/ntfs/logfile.c, mft.c, and super.c.
+ - Fix all the sparse bitwise warnings. Had to change all the typedef
+ enums storing little endian values to simple enums plus a typedef for
+ the datatype to make sparse happy.
+ - Fix a bug found by the new sparse bitwise warnings where the default
+ upcase table was defined as a pointer to wchar_t rather than ntfschar
+ in fs/ntfs/ntfs.h and super.c.
+ - Change {const_,}cpu_to_le{16,32}(0) to just 0 as suggested by Al Viro.
+
+2.1.18 - Fix scheduling latencies at mount time as well as an endianness bug.
+
+ - Remove vol->nr_mft_records as it was pretty meaningless and optimize
+ the calculation of total/free inodes as used by statfs().
+ - Fix scheduling latencies in ntfs_fill_super() by dropping the BKL
+ because the code itself is using the ntfs_lock semaphore which
+ provides safe locking. (Ingo Molnar)
+ - Fix a potential bug in fs/ntfs/mft.c::map_extent_mft_record() that
+ could occur in the future for when we start closing/freeing extent
+ inodes if we don't set base_ni->ext.extent_ntfs_inos to NULL after
+ we free it.
+ - Rename {find,lookup}_attr() to ntfs_attr_{find,lookup}() as well as
+ find_external_attr() to ntfs_external_attr_find() to cleanup the
+ namespace a bit and to be more consistent with libntfs.
+ - Rename {{re,}init,get,put}_attr_search_ctx() to
+ ntfs_attr_{{re,}init,get,put}_search_ctx() as well as the type
+ attr_search_context to ntfs_attr_search_ctx.
+ - Force use of ntfs_attr_find() in ntfs_attr_lookup() when searching
+ for the attribute list attribute itself.
+ - Fix endianness bug in ntfs_external_attr_find().
+ - Change ntfs_{external_,}attr_find() to return 0 on success, -ENOENT
+ if the attribute is not found, and -EIO on real error. In the case
+ of -ENOENT, the search context is updated to describe the attribute
+ before which the attribute being searched for would need to be
+ inserted if such an action were to be desired and in the case of
+ ntfs_external_attr_find() the search context is also updated to
+ indicate the attribute list entry before which the attribute list
+ entry of the attribute being searched for would need to be inserted
+ if such an action were to be desired. Also make ntfs_find_attr()
+ static and remove its prototype from attrib.h as it is not used
+ anywhere other than attrib.c. Update ntfs_attr_lookup() and all
+ callers of ntfs_{external,}attr_{find,lookup}() for the new return
+ values.
+ - Minor cleanup of fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_init_locked_inode().
+
+2.1.17 - Fix bugs in mount time error code paths and other updates.
+
+ - Implement bitmap modification code (fs/ntfs/bitmap.[hc]). This
+ includes functions to set/clear a single bit or a run of bits.
+ - Add fs/ntfs/attrib.[hc]::ntfs_find_vcn() which returns the locked
+ runlist element containing a particular vcn. It also takes care of
+ mapping any needed runlist fragments.
+ - Implement cluster (de-)allocation code (fs/ntfs/lcnalloc.[hc]).
+ - Load attribute definition table from $AttrDef at mount time.
+ - Fix bugs in mount time error code paths involving (de)allocation of
+ the default and volume upcase tables.
+ - Remove ntfs_nr_mounts as it is no longer used.
+
+2.1.16 - Implement access time updates, file sync, async io, and read/writev.
+
+ - Add support for readv/writev and aio_read/aio_write (fs/ntfs/file.c).
+ This is done by setting the appropriate file operations pointers to
+ the generic helper functions provided by mm/filemap.c.
+ - Implement fsync, fdatasync, and msync both for files (fs/ntfs/file.c)
+ and directories (fs/ntfs/dir.c).
+ - Add support for {a,m,c}time updates to inode.c::ntfs_write_inode().
+ Note, except for the root directory and any other system files opened
+ by the user, the system files will not have their access times
+ updated as they are only accessed at the inode level an hence the
+ file level functions which cause the times to be updated are never
+ invoked.
