 GNU parted NEWS-*- outline -*-

 * Noteworthy changes in release 3.3 (2019-10-10) [stable]

 ** Bug Fixes

   s390: Re-enabled virtio-attached DASD heuristics by using
   HDIO_GETGEO when probing device geometry. Fixes a bug with
   KVM virtio-blk backed by a DASD.

 * Noteworthy changes in release 3.2.153 (2019-08-12) [alpha]

   Parted now recognizes NVMe devices, NVDIMM, and RAM drives.

 ** Bug Fixes

   Fix atari disklabel false positives by probing other labels first.

   Fix resizepart to adjust the end to be -1 sector when using iec
   power of 2 units so that the next partition can start immediately
   following the new end, just like mkpart does.

   Fix set and disk_set to not crash when there are no flags to set.

   Fix a udev cookie leak when using resizepart on device-mapper devices.

   Fix a gettext crash/error sometimes when using localized languages.

   Fix fat resize to preverve boot code, and thus not render the
   filesystem unreconized by Windows.

   Fix rescue command: the rescue command often failed to find
   filesystems due to leaving on cylinder alignment.

   libparted-fs-resize: Prevent crash resizing FAT file systems with very
   deep directories with path names over 512 bytes long.

   Use 512b sector size when communicating with device-mapper. Fixes
   problems with partitions being created too small on dm devices
   with sector sizes > 5121b

   Don't crash in the disk_set command when a disk label is not found

   libparted-fs-resize: Prevent crash resizing FAT16 file systems.

   libparted-fs-resize: Prevent crash resizing FAT16 file systems.

   If the user specifies start/end of the partition as cylinders
   and a cylinder has a size which is power of 2, then such address
   does not trigger exact placement.

   mkpart: Allow negative start value when FS-TYPE is not given
