Subject: 4.1-rc2 kvm-xfstests regressions for ext3 test config
Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 17:37:31 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150511213731.GA4012@wallace> (raw)
I've got six new test failures in the ext3 test configuration when
running a 4.1-rc2 kernel on x86_64 with the latest version of
kvm-xfstests.
The new failures include generic/075, generic/091, generic/112,
generic/127, generic/231, and generic/263. All also fail on ARM
(Pandaboard) when running a 4.1-rc2 kernel on bare metal.
Reverting an -rc2 patch corrects all these failures:
ext4: move check under lock scope to close a race (280227a75b56)
All the failed tests use fsx, all fail when attempting to perform a
COLLAPSE_RANGE, and fsx uses this statement to determine whether a
particular fallocate mode is supported (and then doesn't use it if not):
if (fallocate(fd, mode, 0, 1) && errno == EOPNOTSUPP)
In -rc1, ext4_fallocate()/extents.c returns EOPNOTSUPP, and in -rc2,
EINVAL. What's happened is that we no longer immediately fail a
COLLAPSE_RANGE request for a block-mapped file with EOPNOTSUPP. Instead,
we now first check to see if the COLLAPSE_RANGE request is cluster-aligned
and sized in ext4_collapse_range()/extents.c, and return EINVAL if not.
(There's still a check for block-mapped files, but it's applied later in
ext4_collapse_range().)
I think we'd want to return EOPNOTSUPP first in this case.
