To clarify, I'm asking about the correctness of the ciphertext written to "disk", not about the user-visible filesystem behavior which is something different (but also super important as well, of course). xfstests includes both types of tests. Grepping for _verify_ciphertext_for_encryption_policy in xfstests will show the tests that verify the ciphertext written to disk. I doubt that you're running those, as they rely on a block device. So you'll need to write some equivalent tests. In a pinch, you could simply check that the ciphertext is random rather than correct (that would at least show that it's not plaintext) like what generic/399 does. But actually verifying its correctness would be ideal to ensure that nothing went wrong along the way. - Eric
