It turns out that the test harness won't even start if underlying XFS has no d_type support :) mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /mnt/ovl/test, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so. common/rc: retrying test device mount with external set But I still think it's good to have a whiteout sanity test. > > Signed-off-by: Xiong Zhou <xzhou@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > tests/overlay/003 | 78 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > tests/overlay/003.out | 2 ++ > tests/overlay/group | 1 + > 3 files changed, 81 insertions(+) > create mode 100755 tests/overlay/003 > create mode 100644 tests/overlay/003.out > > diff --git a/tests/overlay/003 b/tests/overlay/003 > new file mode 100755 > index 0000000..2401075 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/tests/overlay/003 > @@ -0,0 +1,78 @@ > +#! /bin/bash > +# FS QA Test 003 > +# > +# Test overlayfs whiteout. > +# > +# Overlayfs whiteout can be visible if underlying xfs was created > +# with ftype=0.
