Filesystem regressions related to partial page zeroing can go unnoticed for a decent amount of time. A recent example is the issue of iomap zero range not handling dirty pagecache over unwritten extents, which leads to wrong behavior on certain file extending operations (i.e. truncate, write extension, etc.). fsx does occasionally uncover these sorts of problems, but failures can be rare and/or require longer running tests outside what is typically run via full fstests regression runs. fsx now supports a mode that injects post-eof data in order to explicitly test partial eof zeroing behavior. This uncovers certain problems more quickly and applies coverage more broadly across size changing operations. Add a new test that runs an fsx instance (modeled after generic/127) with eof pollution mode enabled. While the test is generic, it is currently limited to XFS as that is currently the only known major fs that does enough zeroing to satisfy the strict semantics expected by fsx. The long term goal is to uncover and fix issues so more filesystems can enable this test.
