Yes, I did make the suggested changes. But the test would some times hang indefinitely because of xfs_io waiting on input from stdin. With the new changes made to ext4_set_verity(), I see that the fsck fails consistency check. But the failure is seen even without my patches applied. I have planned to debug the failure after I post the next version of the patchset. -- chandan
