Hi all, I ran the latest blktests (git hash: 4f6b3fc593bf) with the v6.8-rc1 kernel. I observed three failures below, which are known for months. Compared with the v6.7 kernel [1], there is no new failure. Also, the failure of nvme/003 is no longer observed :) Thank you for the fix.

Reported in Sep/2022 [2]. In LSF 2023, it was noted that this failure should be fixed. A RFC fix patch was posted recently [3]. It still needs more discussion to be fixed.

Daniel is driving fix work. #3: srp/002, 011 (rdma_rxe driver) Test process hang is observed occasionally. Reported to the relevant mailing lists in Aug/2023 [4]. Blktests was modified to change the default driver from rdma_rxe to siw to avoid impacts on blktests users. The root cause is not yet understood.
