Bug Description:

_test_mount function is failing with the following error:
./common/rc: line 4716: _xfs_prepare_for_eio_shutdown: command not found
check: failed to mount /dev/loop0 on /mnt1/test

when the second section in local.config file is xfs and the first section
is non-xfs.

It can be easily reproduced with the following local.config file

[s2]
export FSTYP=ext4
export TEST_DEV=/dev/loop0
export TEST_DIR=/mnt1/test
export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/loop1
export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt1/scratch

[s1]
export FSTYP=xfs
export TEST_DEV=/dev/loop0
export TEST_DIR=/mnt1/test
export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/loop1
export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt1/scratch

./check selftest/001

Root cause:
When _test_mount() is executed for the second section, the FSTYPE has
already changed but the new fs specific common/$FSTYP has not yet
been done. Hence _xfs_prepare_for_eio_shutdown() is not found and
the test run fails.

Fix:
Remove the additional _test_mount in check file just before ". commom/rc"
since ". commom/rc" is already sourcing fs specific imports and doing a
_test_mount.

Don't we want to _test_mount the newly created filesystem still?  But
perhaps after sourcing common/rc ?

common/rc calls init_rc() in the end and init_rc() already does a
_test_mount. _test_mount after sourcing common/rc will fail, won't it? Does
that make sense?

init_rc()
{
       # make some further configuration checks here
       if [ "$TEST_DEV" = ""  ]
       then
           echo "common/rc: Error: \$TEST_DEV is not set"
           exit 1
       fi

       # if $TEST_DEV is not mounted, mount it now as XFS
       if [ -z "`_fs_type $TEST_DEV`" ]
       then
           # $TEST_DEV is not mounted
           if ! _test_mount
           then
               echo "common/rc: retrying test device mount with external set"
               [ "$USE_EXTERNAL" != "yes" ] && export USE_EXTERNAL=yes
               if ! _test_mount
               then
                   echo "common/rc: could not mount $TEST_DEV on $TEST_DIR"
                   exit 1
               fi
           fi
       fi

ahahahaha yes it does.

/commit message reading comprehension fail, sorry about that.

Though now that you point it out, should check elide the init_rc call
about 12 lines down if it re-sourced common/rc ?
Yes, it should. init_rc() is getting called twice when common/rc is getting
re-sourced. Maybe I can do like


if $RECREATE_TEST_DEV || [ "$OLD_FSTYP" != "$FSTYP" ]; then

      <...>

      . common/rc # changes in this patch

      <...>

elif [ "$OLD_TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS" != "$TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS" ]; then

      ...

      init_rc() # explicitly adding an init_rc() for this condition

else

      init_rc() # # explicitly adding an init_rc() for all other conditions.
This will prevent init_rc() from getting called twice during re-sourcing
common/rc

fi

What do you think?
Sounds fine as a mechanical change, but I wonder, should calling init_rc
be explicit?  There are not so many places that source common/rc:

$ git grep 'common/rc'
check:362:if ! . ./common/rc; then
check:836:              . common/rc
common/preamble:52:     . ./common/rc
soak:7:. ./common/rc
tests/generic/749:18:. ./common/rc

(I filtered out the non-executable matches)

I think the call in generic/749 is unnecessary and I don't know what
soak does.  But that means that one could insert an explicit call to
init_rc at line 366 and 837 in check and at line 53 in common/preamble,
and we can clean up one more of those places where sourcing a common/
file actually /does/ something quietly under the covers.
Okay just to clear my understanding, do you mean that the call to init_rc()
be removed from common/rc file and the places which actually need the call
to init_rc, explicitly calls init_rc() instead of sourcing ". common/rc" and
making common/rc do something under the cover?
Yes.  Callsites like this:

. ./common
<horrid bash code>

become this:

. ./common/rc
init_rc
<horrid bash code>

Okay. Thank you for the confirmation.
