I'm also using latest for-next branch, so I didn't notice this issue either.

I did find a better way to call open either, but if all we care about is the output from reading the file, then we can check that explicitly and ignore other outputs. e.g. --- a/tests/overlay/016 +++ b/tests/overlay/016 @@ -61,6 +61,8 @@ mkdir -p $lowerdir echo "This is old news" > $lowerdir/foo echo "This is old news" > $lowerdir/bar +echo "Silence is golden" + _scratch_mount cd $SCRATCH_MNT @@ -72,7 +74,7 @@ cd $SCRATCH_MNT # write to rwfd # read from rofd # -$XFS_IO_PROG << EOF | _filter_xfs_io +$XFS_IO_PROG << EOF | grep "old" open -r foo open foo pwrite -S 0x61 0 16 @@ -86,7 +88,7 @@ EOF # write to rwfd # read from mapped memory # -$XFS_IO_PROG << EOF | _filter_xfs_io +$XFS_IO_PROG << EOF | grep "old" open -r bar mmap -r 0 16 open bar diff --git a/tests/overlay/016.out b/tests/overlay/016.out index 52b8cd7..aa2526b 100644 --- a/tests/overlay/016.out +++ b/tests/overlay/016.out @@ -1,12 +1,2 @@ QA output created by 016 -xfs_io> xfs_io> xfs_io> wrote 16/16 bytes at offset 0 -XXX Bytes, X ops; XX:XX:XX.X (XXX YYY/sec and XXX ops/sec) -xfs_io> [000] foo (foreign,non-sync,non-direct,read-only) - 001 foo (foreign,non-sync,non-direct,read-write) -xfs_io> 00000000: 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa -read 16/16 bytes at offset 0 -XXX Bytes, X ops; XX:XX:XX.X (XXX YYY/sec and XXX ops/sec) -xfs_io> xfs_io> xfs_io> xfs_io> xfs_io> wrote 16/16 bytes at offset 0 -XXX Bytes, X ops; XX:XX:XX.X (XXX YYY/sec and XXX ops/sec) -xfs_io> 00000000: 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 61 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa -xfs_io> \ No newline at end of file +Silence is golden This should work for both old and new version of xfs_io.
