Hi, sorry, it looks like I jumped to conclusions too hastily. I let the tests finish last night and generic/231 is failing around 10-20% of the time prior to your patch series. I just didn't notice it at first because the failure happened at the very end: xfstests results 201604270033 - 4.6.0-rc4-ext4 Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 Failures: generic/231 With your patches, it remains at about the same level, but when the tests failed caused me to assume they were the caused by your patches. xfstests results 201604270044 - 4.6.0-rc4-ext4-00007-g76bee81 (Just before your patches) Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 Passed all 1 tests xfstests results 201604270054 - 4.6.0-rc4-ext4-00008-g31cedaa (Your 1/3 patch) Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests xfstests results 201604270052 - 4.6.0-rc4-ext4-00009-g46ceec9 (Your 2/3 patch) Failures: generic/231 <=== this is why I thought this commit was the regression Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 xfstests results 201604270046 - 4.6.0-rc4-ext4-00010-geed525e (Your 3/3 patch) Failures: generic/231 Failures: generic/231 Failures: generic/231 Failures: generic/231 Failures: generic/231 Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Passed all 1 tests Failures: generic/231 So enabling per-file data journalling and delalloc is definitely makes the problem much more visible, but it looks like it was always there.
