Yeah, those dmthin functions looks fine for me, I haven't use them(maybe
use them soon).

I said use dmthin is "more difficult", not means use your functions is difficult,
I mean use dmthin to test this "retry forever" issue is difficult. Because
if use dmthinp, I should make sure when I do unmount, there're some journal have
been recorded, but the data haven't be writeback. So when unmount try to flush
these data, it will hit ENOSPC. right?

I think it's too difficult to create this situation.

But if use dmerror, it's easy to make unmount hit EIO error.

Thanks,

hmm... I think generally we do _require_* test before do real test.

But do _require_* test after mkfs is still better than after mount:)

Sure
