For a change like this, I'd recommend running "kvm-xfstests -g auto" using the latest ext4 git tree with your patches applied: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/fs/ext2/xfstests-bld.git/plain/quick-start?h=META With the exception of the bigalloc configs, the test runs are relatively clear. Here are the expected failures for the current dev branch for ext4.git (git commit 4.2.0-rc2-ext4-00013-g6d3ec14d): BEGIN TEST 4k: Ext4 4k block Fri Aug 7 21:28:37 UTC 2015 Passed all 182 tests BEGIN TEST 1k: Ext4 1k block Fri Aug 7 22:12:08 UTC 2015 Failures: generic/018 generic/273 BEGIN TEST ext3: Ext4 4k block emulating ext3 Fri Aug 7 22:59:18 UTC 2015 Failures: generic/018 BEGIN TEST nojournal: Ext4 4k block w/ no journal Fri Aug 7 23:41:10 UTC 2015 Passed all 168 tests BEGIN TEST ext3conv: Ext4 4k block w/nodelalloc and no flex_bg Sat Aug 8 00:21:46 UTC 2015 Failures: generic/223 BEGIN TEST dioread_nolock: Ext4 4k block w/dioread_nolock Sat Aug 8 01:04:00 UTC 2015 Failures: ext4/001 ext4/308 generic/324 BEGIN TEST data_journal: Ext4 4k block w/data=journal Sat Aug 8 01:46:34 UTC 2015 Failures: generic/018 generic/223 BEGIN TEST inline: Ext4 4k block w/inline Sat Aug 8 02:45:06 UTC 2015 Failures: ext4/004 BEGIN TEST bigalloc: Ext4 4k block w/bigalloc Sat Aug 8 03:27:52 UTC 2015 Failures: ext4/004 generic/012 generic/016 generic/017 generic/018 generic/021 generic/022 generic/031 generic/058 generic /060 generic/061 generic/063 generic/064 generic/075 generic/091 generic/112 generic/127 generic/204 generic/219 generic/2 31 generic/235 generic/263 generic/273 BEGIN TEST bigalloc_1k: Ext4 1k block w/bigalloc Sat Aug 8 04:07:13 UTC 2015 Failures: ext4/004 generic/017 generic/018 generic/031 generic/058 generic/060 generic/061 generic/063 generic/064 generic /075 generic/091 generic/112 generic/127 generic/204 generic/231 generic/235 generic/263 generic/273 - Ted P.S. The above was done using gce-xfstests, which uses Google Compute Engine. Using kvm-xfstests is better documented at the moment, and will give similar results, although it will take about 22-24 hours for a full test run assuming you are using an HDD for your test disks.
