Sure. Something like this ? https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199883 and where we link back to the bugzilla from the exclude file https://wiki.samba.org/images/9/9f/Xfstests.exclude.incompatible-smb2.txt > Especially those > 1) which fail on current smb3 > and > 2) which don't require posix extensions to implement (e.g. don't > require case sensitivity) > and > 3) which could conceivably should be able to run on a network file > system (not failures on tests which require a block device for > example) > > On Tue, May 29, 2018 at 7:56 PM, Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > All, > > > > Please have a look at > > https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Xfstesting-cifs > > > > I have updated it a bit to make it easier to get started with running > > xfstests for cifs. > > Especially for people that are new to either cifs or xfstests. > > > > > > Xfstests with cifs is somewhat challenging because there are a lot of tests > > that do not pass. > > The reasons for this varies and can be anything from things that have not > > yet been implemented, > > things that will never be possible to do over smb2+ (we dont care about > > smb1 :-) ) due to semantics > > to downright bugs that needs to be fixed. > > > > > > To handle this and be able to run clean regression test runs I have added > > exclusion files to the wiki, and > > also command lines for how to download and install them in your xfstest > > tree. > > > > For example: > > wget > > https://wiki.samba.org/images/9/9f/Xfstests.exclude.incompatible-smb2.txt > > -O tests/cifs/exclude.incompatible-smb2 > > which is used to download the exclusion file for smb2. > > > > The benefit of exclusion files is that it allows us to run a clean > > regression test of only the tests that we know shoud work. > > The benefit of having these files on the samba wiki is that it means that > > we can all start working with the same list of tests > > instead of as now where I suspect we all have slightly different private > > lists. > > > > Lets make the list of tests we use (or exclude) a canonical set of tests > > and let it live in a public place like the wiki > > so we all work on the same data. > > > > > > My idea is further that we should work on the exclusion files and document > > WHY each test fails.
