Xu Huan reported that this test fails on nfs in some setup. Apparently, the assumptions made about xfs/ext* do not hold for nfs. Relax the verification of filetype not supported case to allow either DT_UNKNOWN or actual file type on all files and not only on special dir entires "." and "..". Convert the unknown d_type replacement code from awk to bash so it is a bit more readable and flexible. Reported-by: Xu Huan <xuhuan.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx> --- Xu, Please check if this patch fixes your problem. I prefer to keep the test coverage of unsupported case. I tested with xfs/ext4 with/without filetype support.
