It's in the "dangerous" group, which may very well mean that it's known to cause systems to crash. In general I tend to run either "check -g quick" as a smoke test, or "check -g auto" with a variety of different ext4 configurations. The former takes about 30 minuts, and the latter (given my current list of test configs) takes a bit under 24 hours. I tried manually running generic/019, and even though I have CONFIG_FAIL_MAKE_REQUEST defined, /sys/kernel/debug/fail_make_request isn't present, and so the test complains that I haven't compiled it into my kernel --- even though /proc/config.gz confirms that it is enabled. Is there anything special I have to do to get generic/019 to run? Thanks, - Ted P.S. I have provided for ext4 developers are preconfigured kvm test image that makes it very easy to do tests without needing to use bare metal; let me know if you're interested in getting a quick start to our setup. -- 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
