Here is the patch to e2fsprogs-1.39, with patches for ext4 already applied. It makes e2fsprogs tools recognize uninitialized extents. This is only for testing purpose as of now and it might need some fine-tuning, before it can be really be submitted. This patch also enables "EXT_DEBUG" flag to display debug information (e.g. extent details). --- lib/ext2fs/bmap.c | 3 +- lib/ext2fs/ext4_extents.h | 12 +++++++++- lib/ext2fs/extents.c | 55 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 3 files changed, 47 insertions(+), 23 deletions(-) Index: e2fsprogs-1.39/lib/ext2fs/bmap.c =================================================================== --- e2fsprogs-1.39.orig/lib/ext2fs/bmap.c 2006-12-19 11:53:48.000000000 +0530 +++ e2fsprogs-1.39/lib/ext2fs/bmap.c 2006-12-19 11:53:52.000000000 +0530 @@ -45,7 +45,8 @@ ex = EXT_FIRST_EXTENT(eh); for (i = 0; i < eh->eh_entries; i++, ex++) { if ((ex->ee_block <= block) && - (block < ex->ee_block + ex->ee_len)) { + (block < ex->ee_block + + ext4_ext_get_actual_len(ex))) { *phys_blk = EXT4_EE_START(ex) + (block - ex->ee_block); return 0; Index: e2fsprogs-1.39/lib/ext2fs/ext4_extents.h =================================================================== --- e2fsprogs-1.39.orig/lib/ext2fs/ext4_extents.h 2006-12-19 11:53:48.000000000 +0530 +++ e2fsprogs-1.39/lib/ext2fs/ext4_extents.h 2006-12-19 15:55:32.000000000 +0530 @@ -37,7 +37,7 @@ * if EXT_DEBUG is defined you can use 'extdebug' mount option * to get lots of info what's going on */ -//#define EXT_DEBUG +#define EXT_DEBUG #ifdef EXT_DEBUG #define ext_debug(tree,fmt,a...) \ do { \ @@ -170,6 +170,16 @@ #define EXT_ASSERT(__x__) if (!(__x__)) BUG(); +/* + * Macro-instructions used to handle (mark/unmark/check/create) unitialized + * extents.
