Re: [PATCH blktests 2/2] nvme/047: add test for uring-passthrough

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Thanks for the patch. I think it's good to have this test case to cover the
uring-passthrough codes in the nvme driver code. Please find my comments in
line.

Also, I ran the new test case on my Fedora system using QEMU NVME device and
found the test case fails with errors like,

    fio: io_u error on file /dev/ng0n1: Permission denied: read offset=266240, buflen=4096

I took a look in this and learned that SELinux on my system does not allow
IORING_OP_URING_CMD by default. I needed to do "setenforce 0" or add a local
policy to allow IORING_OP_URING_CMD so that the test case passes.

I think this test case should check this security requirement. I'm not sure what
is the best way to do it. One idea is to just run fio with io_uring_cmd engine
and check its error message. I created a patch below, and it looks working on my
system. I suggest to add it, unless anyone knows other better way.

In general, it's the better not to depend on version number to check dependency.
Is kernel version the only way to check the kernel dependency?

Also, I think this test case assumes that the kernel is built with
CONFIG_IO_URING. I suggest to add "_have_kernel_option IO_URING" to ensure it.

Is io_uring_cmd engine the reason to check this fio version? If so, I suggest to
check "fio --enghelp" output. We can add a new helper function with name like
_have_fio_io_uring_cmd_engine. _have_fio_zbd_zonemode in common/fio can be a
reference.

I think you are aware of the comment lines :)
