Re: [LTP] [PATCH 1/1] fsx-linux: Reduce log output

Hi,

more than TVERB, it would be nice to add a "verbose_flag". Something like:

tst_res(TINFO, "my message %s", my_param, verbose_flag)

And then with a -v we filter out messages which are verbose or not.
In this way we don't add T-flags and we can handle any kind of messages
in verbose mode.
