[PATCH 1/2] common/rc: add functions to check or write objects under /sys/fs

[PATCH 1/2] common/rc: add functions to check or write objects under /sys/fs

[Zorro Lang]

XFS add more configurations in /sys/fs/xfs recently. For use
them, this patch add some common functions for:
  1. "require" a file/dir in /sys/fs.
  2. write a file in /sys/fs.

For common use, these functions can be used by other filesystems.

[PATCH 2/2] xfs/006: new case to test xfs fail_at_unmount error handling

[Zorro Lang]

XFS bring in a new configuration under /sys/fs/xfs/error, named
fail_at_unmount. It's used to stop unmount retrying forever when
it hit IO error.

This case try to unmount an faulty dm device, and to sure unmount
won't retry forever if fail_at_unmount=1.

Hi,

Thanks Carlos told this easy way(use dm error) to test this feature, or
I will try to use dm thinp to reproduce unmount hit an ENOSPC error. That's
more difficult to do.

I haven't gotten some good ideas to test those /sys/fs/xfs/dm-X/error/
metadata/... configurations. If someone have good ideas, please let me
know:)

Thanks,
Zorro

we don't want to mkfs the test dev just for a _require test; that
device is supposed to age, and this could possibly take a very long
time, as well.  And in general a mkfs should not be required to test
the existence of a sysfs tunable, I think?

This seems overly complex; do you need both of these functions?  We are only
testing one filesystem type at a time, and $TEST_DEV is always required.
What is the reason for the two differing functions?

Isn't _require_sys_fs $SCRATCH_DEV exactly the same as
_require_scratch_sys_fs ?

Also, because $SCRATCH_DEV is not required, $SCRATCH_MNT
isn't either, so I don't think you can use $SCRATCH_MNT.

Also :)  We may one day want to require sysfs files which
are not in the fs/ namespace, so it should probably
be named according to the namespace.

So maybe something like this (not tested)

+ /* Test for the existence of a sysfs entry at /sys/fs/$FSTYP/$DEV/$ENTRY */
+_require_fs_sys_fs()
+{
+        local dev=$1
+        local target=$2
+        local dname=""
+        local tmp_mnt=`mktemp -d`
+
+        if [ ! -b "$dev" -o -z "$target" ];then
+	        echo "Usage: _require_fs_sys_fs <device> <sysfs_path>"
+                exit 1
+        fi
+
+        dname=$(basename $(readlink -f $dev))
+        _mount -t $FSTYP `_common_dev_mount_options` $dev $tmp_mnt
+        if [ ! -e /sys/fs/${FSTYP}/${dname}/$target ];then
+                umount $tmp_mnt
+                rm -f $tmp_mnt
+                _notrun "/sys/fs/${FSTYP}/${dname}/$target: No such file or directory"
+        fi
+        umount $SCRATCH_MNT
+        rm -f $tmp_mnt
+}

and it would work for either SCRATCH or TEST?

This seems fine.  Normally I'd say this could just be open coded
in the test, but the dname=$(basename $(readlink -f $dev)) is worth
encapsulating in the helper.

I don't think this is needed; it's easy enough to just call:

_set_fs_sys_fs_param $dev error/fail_at_unmount 0
_set_fs_sys_fs_param $dev error/fail_at_unmount 1

directly from tests.  There are a lot of sysfs tunables, writing wrappers
for each one isn't really that helpful.

right, different errors from dm_thinp.

But I think my simple dm_thinp test and the infrastructure it uses
should make this easy?  It was merged recently.

I guess my earlier suggestion was to not mkfs inside the
_require function for sysfs, so maybe move the test here:

_require_fs_sys_fs $SCRATCH_DEV error/fail_at_unmount

I guess nothing guarantees that the device is already mkfs'd, at least
for scratch, so maybe it also needs to catch a mount failure,
with a message about "could not mount; mkfs first in your test?"
or something like that.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for you can review this, as I know you're very busy recently:)

Sorry for the "complex", let me explain:
1. At first, I write a function _require_sys_fs(), which used to check
   all kinds of device's /sys/fs/fstype configurations. Include dmerror,
   dmthinp and what ever other devices(not only TEST_DEV, SCRATCH_DEV).
2. Then I want to add a _require_scratch_sys_fs() function, which only
   used for SCRATCH_DEV. Because I feel generally if SCRATCH_DEV support
   a /sys/fs/fstype configurations, that means the working kernel support
   it. And _require_sys_fs() can be used by other devices write their
   _require_XXX_sys_fs() function(if needed... Looks like I thought too
   much....).
3. When I wrote _require_scratch_sys_fs(), I want to use _require_sys_fs
   $SCRATCH_DEV directly. But I saw _scratch_mkfs() use different options
   with common mkfs_dev() function. So I use _scratch_mkfs and _scratch_mount
   to write this _require_scratch_sys_fs().
4. About why I need mkfs before in this _require function, at first those
   /sys/fs/fstype configurations only can be used after mount. The second
   is I hope _require_sys_fs() can be used by other devices, which maybe
   not mkfs... So....

> Also, because $SCRATCH_DEV is not required, $SCRATCH_MNT
> isn't either, so I don't think you can use $SCRATCH_MNT.

I did this according to _require_scratch_xfs_crc() function.

I think you mean "umount $tmp_mnt" at here

hmm.. That's OK. I can't sure if mkfs before mount is better or not. If we
don't mkfs in this function, we ask the caller keep sure the $dev has been
mkfs. I think both are OK for me, I will follow your idea:)

Do you mean I should do?:
local dname=$(readlink -f $dev)
dname=`basename $dname`

Yeah, except they can check if "$FSTYP" = "xfs", they don't do
more than use _set_fs_sys_fs_param directly.

Yes, if we don't mkfs in _require_fs_sys_fs(), that means we need the
caller make sure they do that. I will check the mount error likes:

_mount -t $FSTYP `_common_dev_mount_options` $dev $tmp_mnt
if [ $? -ne 0 ];then
	rm -f $tmp_mnt
	_notrun "could not mount; mkfs first in your test?"
elif [ ! -e /sys/fs/${FSTYP}/${dname}/$target ];then
	....
fi

Yeah, those dmthin functions looks fine for me, I haven't use them(maybe
use them soon).

I said use dmthin is "more difficult", not means use your functions is difficult,
I mean use dmthin to test this "retry forever" issue is difficult. Because
if use dmthinp, I should make sure when I do unmount, there're some journal have
been recorded, but the data haven't be writeback. So when unmount try to flush
these data, it will hit ENOSPC. right?

I think it's too difficult to create this situation.

But if use dmerror, it's easy to make unmount hit EIO error.

hmm... I think generally we do _require_* test before do real test.

But do _require_* test after mkfs is still better than after mount:)

Yes, I think this is better.  Any test using scratch should mkfs it
anyway, and this way the test will not have to perform mkfs twice -
once for the _require, and again for the test.

Right, that one is generic.

If available sysfs options depens on mkfs options, that could be an issue.
But if we make the _require function check for a previous mkfs from the main
test itself, then the test can control the mkfs options too.

right, but that is specific to "scratch."  My point was that
you were using $SCRATCH_MNT in the first generic function, which
is not specific to scratch, and can operate on any device.

yep!

It does seem a little strange to require the mkfs I guess, but it seems better
than performing mkfs twice in the test.

I suppose one other way to do it might e to make a tiny loopback filesystem
image in a tempfile, and test that.  That way you could control the
mkfs time?  But I guess it's possible that sysfs options *could* even depend
on the size of the fs, though I can't think of any today that do.

No ... I mean, what you have is just fine, no change needed.

Well, it would be strange to call an xfs sysfs interface on a
non-xfs test, but ... I guess it could happen.

You could add something to _set_fs_sys_fs_param to also
_fail with a warning if /sys/fs/${FSTYP}/${dname}/$target does not exist.
