            Bug ID: 15665
           Summary: consider adding xfstests-dev
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2023.05
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
          Assignee: unassigned@buildroot.uclibc.org
          Reporter: stsp2@yandex.ru
                CC: buildroot@uclibc.org
  Target Milestone: ---

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfstests-dev.git

These tests are used for CI-testing
of linux kernel at kernel.org.
Any changes to fs/* require updating
these tests.
Would it be possible to add this as
a package? It would really help to use
buildroot as a platform for making
kernel patches.

Yes, please feel free to send a patch adding it. See the manual:
    https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#adding-packages

--- Comment #2 from stsp <stsp2@yandex.ru> ---
These tests use mkfs command.
which seems not provided under
buildroot. I have individual
mkfs.<fsname> commands, but the
mkfs frontend is missing.
How to "fix" that?

Thanks!
I had to do util-linux-dirclean first,
for this to take an effect, but it worked.

Is there a similar trick to enable
native readlink? busybox's readlink
is not suitable.

readlink is from coreutils.

Since this report is about adding a new package, I'm closing it. Discussion
about development of new features is to be had on the mailing list.

Yann E. MORIN.

But isn't working out the dependencies
is a fundamental part of adding the package?
I was asking about readlink and mkfs
exactly because xfstests-dev uses them and
is unsatisfied with the ones from busybox.

Yes, but discussion about adding a new package, and about the issues while
doing so, are to be discussed on the mailing list, not in the bug tracker.

Yann E. MORIN.
