Commit Message

There is a message in _supported_fs():
    _notrun "not suitable for this filesystem type: $FSTYP"
for when overlay usecases are executed on a chararcter device based base
fs. _overay_config_override() detects that the current base fs partition
is not a block device, and FSTYP won't be overwritten as 'overlay' before
executing usecases which results in all overlay usecases become 'notrun'.
In addition, all generic usecases are based on base fs rather than overlay.

We want to rewrite FSTYP to 'overlay' before running the usecases. To do
this, we need to add additional character device judgments for TEST_DEV
and SCRATCH_DEV in _overay_config_override().

You can do that?

What does that even look like?

OH, ubifs.  Ok.

/me wonders if there are more places in xfstests with test -b that needs
fixing...

There are indeed many '-b' options in xfstests. I only confirmed the line of overlay test. Other -b test options I need to reconfirm later.

FWIW, I eyeballed blockdev related overlayfs common code bits
and all I found out of order was:

Zhihaho,

That's all I meant in the nit.
The v1 commit message was perfectly fine, there was no need to change it at all.

Thanks,
Amir.
