Ok, now that I see this, the penny drops - you can't do this as
it changes the CLI interface in a way that will make existing
scripts do something entirely different to what they used to do.
i.e. "-f setxattr=n" is used to specify the frequency of this
specific operation. It used to control the project ID setting, now
with this change it controls extended attribute frequency. There are
some tests that actually use "-f setxattr=n" (and who knows how many
custom test scripts using fsstress built from fstests), so I don't
think we should be renaming existing operations to something else
and then reusing the name for a new type of operation like this....
I certainly agree with the idea of adding extended attributes to
fsstress, just not this way...
Cheers,
Dave.
