Yeh that's what I did, but then I found values that reproduce a problem, so maybe its worth clinging on to these values now until the bugs are fixed in upstream and then as regression tests. Anyway, I can keep these presets commented out, or run the test twice, once with presets and once with random seed, whatever Eryu decides. > >> > There is an outstanding problem with the test - when I run it with >> > kvm-xfstests, the test halts and I get soft lockup of log_writes_kthread. >> > I suppose its a bug in dm-log-writes with some kernel config or with virtio >> > I wasn't able to determine the reason and have little time to debug this. >> > >> > Since dm-log-writes is anyway in upstream kernel, I don't think a bug >> > in dm-log-writes for a certain config is a reason to block this xfstest >> > from being merged. >> > Anyway, I would be glad if someone could take a look at the soft lockup >> > issue.

Now something's wrong with the log. it get corrupted in most of the test runs, something like this: replaying 17624@158946: sector 8651296, size 4096, flags 0 replaying 17625@158955: sector 0, size 0, flags 0 replaying 17626@158956: sector 72057596591815616, size 103079215104, flags 0 Error allocating buffer 103079215104 entry 17626 I'll look into it Amir. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe fstests" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

The first 6 patches are all prepare work and seem fine, so I probably will push them out this week. But I may need more time to look into all these log-writes dm target and fsx changes. But seems that there're still problems not sorted out (e.g. this log-write bug), I'd prefer, when they get merged, removing the auto group for now until things settle down a bit.

Speaking of ext4 corruption, I did not re-post this test with this series because its quite an ugly black box test. I figured if ext4 guys would take a look and understand the problem they could write a more intelligent test. OTOH maybe its better than nothing? BTW, Josef, did/could you write a more intelligent test to catch the extent crc bug that you fixed? if not, was it easy to reproduce with the provided seed presets? and without them? I am asking to understand if a regression test to that bug is in order beyond random seed fsx. BTW2, the xfs bug I found is reproduced with reasonable likelihood with any random seed. By using the provided presets, I was able to reduce the test run time and debug cycle considerably. I used NUM_FILES=2; NUM_OPS=31 to reproduce at > 50% probability within seconds. So this bug doesn't require a specialized regression test. ... > > The first 6 patches are all prepare work and seem fine, so I probably > will push them out this week.

If some version is merged so people can start pointing this big gun to their file systems, I imagine more interesting bug will come surface.

For now, it seems that the problem observed with kvm-xfstests is specific to kvm-qemu aio=threads config, so you shouldn't have any problems trying out the test on non kvm setup.

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll run this test and look into the code closely and see what's the best option.
