Hi Jan:
I'm seeing two test regressions on 6.4-rc1 while running the adv test case
with kvm-xfstests. Both tests fail with 100% reliability in 100 trial runs,
and the failures appear to depend solely upon the fast commit mount option.
The first is generic/065, where the relevant info from 065.full is:
_check_generic_filesystem: filesystem on /dev/vdc is inconsistent
*** fsck.ext4 output ***
fsck from util-linux 2.36.1
e2fsck 1.47.0 (5-Feb-2023)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
Directories count wrong for group #16 (4294967293, counted=0).
The second is generic/535, where the test output is:
QA output created by 535
Silence is golden
+Before: 755
+After : 777
Both test failures bisect to: e360c6ed7274 ("ext4: Drop special handling of
journalled data from ext4_sync_file()"). Reverting this patch eliminates the
test failures. So, I thought I'd bring these to your attention.
