From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Commit 8973af00ec212f added a _kill_fsstress to the standard _cleanup function. However, if something breaks during test program initialization before it gets to sourcing common/rc, then you get failures that look like this: --- /tmp/fstests/tests/generic/556.out 2024-09-25 12:09:52.938797554 -0700 +++ /var/tmp/fstests/generic/556.out.bad 2025-01-04 22:34:01.268327003 -0800 @@ -1,16 +1,3 @@ QA output created by 556 -SCRATCH_MNT/basic Casefold -SCRATCH_MNT/basic -SCRATCH_MNT/casefold_flag_removal Casefold -SCRATCH_MNT/casefold_flag_removal Casefold -SCRATCH_MNT/flag_inheritance/d1/d2/d3 Casefold -SCRATCH_MNT/symlink/ind1/TARGET -mv: 'SCRATCH_MNT/rename/rename' and 'SCRATCH_MNT/rename/RENAME' are the same file -# file: SCRATCH_MNT/xattrs/x -user.foo="bar" - -# file: SCRATCH_MNT/xattrs/x/f1 -user.foo="bar" - -touch: 'SCRATCH_MNT/strict/corac'$'\314\247\303': Invalid argument -touch: 'SCRATCH_MNT/strict/cora'$'\303\247\303': Invalid argument +./tests/generic/556: 108: common/config: Syntax error: "&" unexpected +./tests/generic/556: 10: _kill_fsstress: not found It's that last line that's unnecessary. Fix this by checking for the presence of a _kill_fsstress before invoking it.
