Hi Roman,
Generally these have been broken for a while, or in the case of generic/396 and
generic/399 are new tests which are exposing bugs. A few of these I was already
aware of but just haven't had time to get to:
- the failure of generic/347 in data journalling mode is intermittent
- the failure of generic/396 in "adv" mode is related to the use of the inline
data feature, apparently caused by ext4_convert_inline_data() corrupting an
empty directory
- failure of generic/399 in some configurations
If you're interested in looking into any of these failing tests and either
fixing the kernel or fixing the test as appropriate, please feel free to!
Thanks,
Eric
