ffs2recovUtility to recover UFS2 filesystems
1.0_1sysutilsΣ=2 1.0_1Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch.
DEPRECATED: BROKEN on supported versions after EOL of 12 This port expired on: 2023-12-31 IGNORE: is marked as broken on FreeBSD 13.2: Changes made to the ffs2 filesystem in FreeBSD 13 are no longer compatible with ffs2recov
This is the UFS2 version of ffsrecov, heavily (and I do mean _heavily_)
based on John-Mark Gurney's program of the same name. It does basically
the same thing, only it's a little more resistant to crashes caused by
bad pointers, offsets and the like, and it does a little more than his
did. Don't contact him for problems with this program, it's definitely
_my_ fault if it breaks.
This program is not ready for prime time. It has some shortfalls, it
has a bunch of new options that are mostly undocumented and the manpage
could stand to be rewritten. One _good_ thing is that it now uses the
libufs library and is therefore not as dependent on carrying around
low-level code.
On the other hand, it worked for me. Using this tool, I was able to
recover almost all of a several-hundred-gigabyte file system that had
been stomped by a misconfigured RAID controller. (That's why I wrote the
thing in the first place, in fact.) With the right knowledge and a lot
of patience, it is possible to recover most or all of a trashed file
system, at least if it's not _too_ trashed.
I'm releasing it under the Berkeley two-clause license in the hope that
someone with more time will pick it up, polish it and make something a
little more useful out of it.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus
minor COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles
where not included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break
the Phabricator workflow. Categories P-S.

we won't put it back.
