I was looking in a little more detail at tests 213 and 228 ... and I see 228 passing to all servers I tried. Did you see a problem with that? With 213 I see it working to Windows, and to Samba test 213 also works but only if "strict allocate = yes" is set in smb.conf (I just verified it on the buildbot) On Sun, Aug 2, 2020 at 9:55 PM Xiaoli Feng <xifeng@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello all, > > Recently when I'm investigating the xfstests generic/213 generic/228 failures for cifs. > Found that fallocate can't change the cifs disk space usage.
