Hey Darrick, on a slightly different topic, you had mentioned on last week's ext4 video chat that you had been working on some patches to allow specific blocks to be forced to return EIO, at specific times, to test how a file system handles errors when writing to data blocks, metadata blocks, journal, etc. Are there early versions of those patches available for us to play with? I'm interesting in using that infrastructure for adding some ext4 tests along those lines. Thanks!! - Ted

They're not even early versions; these have been in my fstests tree for years but I haven't had time to get them upstreamed. :( https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfstests-dev.git/commit/?h=scrub-media-error-reporting_2020-10-27&id=2cc930d7f0034879218efc2292b7e4eb2aaa3fea --D > Thanks!! > > - Ted
