Please explain. Broken, how so? What changes do you suggest, specifically? Also, if you have feedback it would be helpful if you posted it in response to the actual kernel patchset, not just the tests. AFAICS, this is your first time responding to any fs-verity related thread, despite it being out for review for months; is that correct or did I miss something you previously posted? - Eric
