From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> The test currently uses 'dd' directly for writing to files; instead we should be using the xfs_io pwrite command. Also, when we have a configuration that does not do delayed allocation (e.g. dax), there is no guarantee that the files will be allocated in the pattern expected, so do all the writes from a single buffer so the kernel can allocate extents in the manner the test expects as much as possible.
