And, yes, I'm running the fixes in mm-hotifxes-stable branch that allow xfs/550 to pass. Who is actually testing this DAX code, and what are they actually testing on? These are not random failures - I haven't run DAX testing since ~5.18, and none of these failures were present on the same DAX test VM running the same configuration back then.... -Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
