That makes me think the underlying filesystem (i.e. the fs the loop
image file is hosted on) ran out of space. Everything will go to
shit if that happens.

Yup, that one only does about 50,000 synchronous writes via fsx.
If you want to run fast, use a virtual machine with 10GB RAM and use
a pair of 4GB ramdisks as the storage.
Or expunge the long running tests (look up the -X option) so they
are skipped.

That's another lockdep annotation limitation I've had to work
around. The RENAME_WHITEOUT changes caused that by introducing the
need to lock 5 inodes at the same time (src/dst dir, src/dst file,
whiteout inode) instead of only 4.

It greatly complicated those patches, you mean?
But, yes, those patches should have fixed it - I had to shoehorn
about 15 different XFS inode locking subclasses into the 8
subclasses that lockdep supports. And I used all 8 subclasses for
the ILOCK annotations, so if theres some other annotation we need to
add (e.g more than one level of ILOCK_PARENT lock nesting) then,
well, we will need at least 16 subclasses to annotate everything.
I hate lockdep.
Cheers,
Dave.
