1) _require_scratch_dax_mountopt() checks both old and new DAX mount option
2) _require_dax_iflag() checks FS_XFLAG_DAX

Signed-off-by: Xiao Yang <yangx.jy@cn.fujitsu.com>

V5->V6:
Simplify _require_scratch_dax_mountopt because it is enough to only check
dax/dax=always mount option.  See the following reasons:
1) we cannot detect if underlying device supports dax by mounting dax=inode
   or dax=never.
2) dax=always, dax=inode, dax=never are always introduced together.

Hi Ira,

Do you want to check if invalid parameter is passed to  
_require_scratch_dax_mountopt? Thought
I think it is not necessary(user should pass correct parament).
Like this:
[ "$mountopt" != "dax" ] && [ "$mountopt" != "dax=always" ] && _notrun 
"$mountopt is invalid"

Best Regards,
Xiao Yang

I thought this patch was just checking if the filesystem/device supported DAX
such that DAX tests could run using either old _or_ new dax support...

But after thinking about it I think we need something more complicated.

Something like:

if ('-o dax=inode')
	// FS is DAX with per file support (ie ext4 || XFS kernel >= 5.8)
else if ('-o dax')
	// FS is DAX (ie ext4 || XFS on kernel < 5.8)
else
	// FS has no dax support.

Do we do that with 2 functions?

	_require_scratch_dax_mountopt()
	_require_scratch_new_dax_mountopt()

If both fail we are in the else clause above?

We can use the dax=inode because it is a new option and is not necessarily the
option used while running the tests.  (I think.  as I said my xfstests skills
are not great so I'm not always sure of the correct patterns)

Hi Ira,

dax=inode/dax=never cannot check if underlying device supports dax, so I 
perfer to use dax=always
For example:
XFS:
# mount -o dax=inode /dev/sda8 /mnt/xfstests/test/
# mount | grep sda8
/dev/sda8 on /mnt/xfstests/test type xfs 
(rw,relatime,seclabel,attr2,inode64,logbufs=8,logbsize=32k,noquota)
...
# mount -o dax=always /dev/sda8 /mnt/xfstests/test/
# mount | grep sda8
/dev/sda8 on /mnt/xfstests/test type xfs 
(rw,relatime,seclabel,attr2,dax=never,inode64,logbufs=8,logbsize=32k,noquota)

EXT4:
# mount -o dax=inode /dev/sda8 /mnt/xfstests/test/
# mount | grep sda8
/dev/sda8 on /mnt/xfstests/test type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,dax=inode)
...
# mount -o dax=always /dev/sda8 /mnt/xfstests/test/
mount: /mnt/xfstests/test: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 
/dev/sda8, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
# dmesg | grep DAX
[597988.165120] EXT4-fs (sda8): DAX unsupported by block device.

If we want to test new dax(i.e. dax=inode, dax=always or dax=never), so 
pass "dax=always" to  _require_scratch_dax_mountopt
If we want to test old dax  or new dax=always(either of them), so pass 
"dax" to _require_scratch_dax_mountopt

Xiao Yang

That does seem like the only way to figure out if a fs/device
combination supports dax.

The valid arguments to the _require_scratch_dax* helpers are worth
mentioning in a comment above the function, but I suspect that adding
validation code is probably overkill.

Ok yes I see it now.

You are both correct.  I think a comment which indicates that one should pads
'-o dax' to check for 'old support' vs '-o dax=always' for 'new support' and
the test chooses which option to pass (based on the support it needs) to
_require_scratch_dax_mountopt()...

Sorry I was not completely following before!
