It took much less time once I figured out that umount -l at the last moment before reboot would reliably corrupt one filesystem and one filesystem only. Before that, I was having to fsck 2.5Tb of filesystems on every test run, just in case the latest reboot had zapped them too... > It has exposed the fact that we are not doing a good job > regression testing all of the available configurations. This is the Linux kernel: what was it Linus joked years ago, users are the test load? I'm impressed you have any regression testing at all, let alone as much as you seem to. :P :P (But, seriously, fsstress is a wonderful thing. And the kernel's test culture *is* improving, and I'm happy to see filesystem hackers in the front line.) -- NULL && (void) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
