Subject: [PATCH] generic/388: randomly recover via read-only mounts
Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2020 09:59:41 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201217145941.2513069-1-bfoster@redhat.com> (raw)

XFS has an issue where superblock counters may not be properly
synced when recovery occurs via a read-only mount. This causes the
filesystem to become inconsistent after unmount. To cover this test
case, update generic/388 to switch between read-only and read-write
mounts to perform log recovery.

Signed-off-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com>

I didn't think it was worth duplicating generic/388 to a whole new test
just to invoke log recovery from a read-only mount. generic/388 is a
rather general log recovery test and this preserves historical behavior
of the test.

A prospective fix for the issue this reproduces on XFS is posted here:
