Hi all, This series modifies fstests to take advantage of the fact that xfs_metadump and xfs_mdrestore now support capturing the contents of an external log in a metadump, and restoring it on the other end. The first part of this series refactors and cleans up the common code a bit, and the rest add the actual support. Once this is merged, we'll be able to cache metadumps of populated filesystems with external log devices, which will enable faster fuzz testing. If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just pull from my git trees, which are linked below. This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything. Enjoy! Comments and questions are, as always, welcome. --D xfsprogs git tree: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfsprogs-dev.git/log/?h=metadump-external-devices fstests git tree: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfstests-dev.git/log/?h=metadump-external-devices --- common/ext4 | 17 ++++++++++++- common/fuzzy | 7 +++++ common/populate | 72 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------------- common/xfs | 39 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 4 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 40 deletions(-)
