--- Begin Message ---Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.43~WIP.2016.03.15-2 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/share/man/man8/e2fsck.8.gz We see: -p Automatically repair ("preen") the file system. This option will cause e2fsck to automatically fix any filesystem problems that can be safely fixed without human intervention. If e2fsck discovers a problem which may require the system administrator to take additional corrective action, e2fsck will print a description of the problem and then exit with the value 4 logi- cally or'ed into the exit code. (See the EXIT CODE section.) This option is normally used by the system's boot scripts. It may not be specified at the same time as the -n or -y options. OK but also mention that some items will be also printed along with "IGNORED" and exit value 0. # fsck -C -V -f -a /cf fsck from util-linux 2.28 [/sbin/fsck.ext4 (1) -- /mnt/usb/cf] fsck.ext4 -f -a -C0 /dev/sdc2 Inode 65395 extent tree (at level 1) could be shorter. IGNORED. /dev/sdc2: 914/128016 files (1.4% non-contiguous), 73617/512000 blocks To fix them one must use e.g., -y. If one does not fix them they will just be printed the next time.

The man page doesn't have to specify every possible thing that a progam might do. In this case, what is in the man page is not incorrect, since "Inode 65395 extent tree (at level 1) could be shorter." is not a problem. Adding too much detail can make a man page harder to understand.... - Ted
