Filesystem testing

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

 



Hello all,
What are the most common testing tools used for stress testing ext4(or any file system..), and making sure the data (and metadata) that was written is correctly read back, operations that were done(whether usual R/W, but also others like truncate, stat,link, f* operations etc) did not cause problems or corruptions, do fscks if needed etc?

Also, are there tools that can cause aborts underneath the file system, basically something in the mid layer that randomly drops IOs or something along those lines?

I am looking for tests which can fully stress the system exercising the file system and also check for corruption. 

As an aside, I looked at xfstests, from what I could gather, it was started only for xfs, but there is ongoing work to make it work with ext4(and thus other posix FS?). If someone can point me to the documentation for xfstests and what it does, that would help. I could not find much.

Thanks in advance.
