The test writes a 128M file and expects to end up with 1024 extents, each
with a size of 128K, which is the maximum size for compressed extents.
Generally this is what happens, but often it's possibly for writeback to
kick in while creating the file (due to memory pressure, or something
calling sync in parallel, etc) which may result in creating more and
smaller extents, which makes the test fail since its golden output
expects exactly 1024 extents with a size of 128K each.

So to work around run defrag after creating the file, which will ensure
we get only 128K extents in the file.

But defrag is not much different than reading the page and set it dirty
for writeback again.

It can be affected by the same memory pressure things to get split.

I guess you choose compressed file extents is to bump up the subvolume
tree meanwhile also compatible for all sector sizes.

In that case, what about doing DIO using sectorsize of the fs?
So that each dio write would result one file extent item, meanwhile
since it's a single sector/page, memory pressure will never be able to
writeback that sector halfway.

Thanks,
Qu
