For complex series, it's helpful if you could run the equivalent of:

   {gce,kvm}-xfstests -c ext4/all -g auto

It takes about 24 hours (plus or minus, depending on the speed of your
storage device; it will also take about twice as long if
CONFIG_LOCKDEP is enabled) if you use kvm-xfstests.  Using
gce-xfstests with the ltm takes about around 1.75 hours (w/o LOCKDEP)
since it runs the tests in parallel, using separate VM's for each file
system config.

There are a small number of failures (especially flaky test failures),
however, (a) if a VM ever crashes, that's definitely a problem, and
(b) the ext4/4k config should be failure-free.  For example, here's a
current "good" test run that I'm checking the dev branch against.
(Currently, we have some kind of issue with -c ext4/adv generic/475
that I'm still chasing down.)

The failures seen below are known failures that we need to work
through.  Bill Whitney is working on the bigalloc_1k shared/298
failure, for example.  If you would like to work on one of the test
failures, especially if it's a file system config that you use in
production, please feel free to do so.  :-)   Also, if you are
interested in adapting the xfstests-bld codebase to support other
cloud services beyond Google Cloud Engine, again, let me know.

The gce-xfstests run below was generated using:

% gce-xfstests install-kconfig --lockdep
% gce-xfstests kbuild --dpkg
% gce-xfstests launch-ltm
% gce-xfstests ltm full

(Using the --dpkg is needed because is because there is a kexec bug
showing up when running on a Google Cloud VM's that I haven't been
able to fix, and it's been easier to just work around the kexec
problem.  Kexec works just fine on kvm-xfstests, though, so there's no
need to use kbuild --dpkg if you are just using kvm-xfstests.)
