Eryu, This series enhances test coverage for generic NFS file handles encode/decode functionality and adds a new gereric/exportfs test. Please note that the new test output includes the temporary test number 500, so don't forget to fix those when renaming the test. The enhanced open_by_handle program is going to be used later on for overlayfs specific exportfs tests [1]. The open_by_handle program is limited to encoding "non-connectable" file handles (used by nfsd on 'no_subtree_check' exports), because there is no user available API (that I know of) to encode a "connecctable" file handle (used by nfsd on 'subtree_check' exports). I used a test patch "test connectable file handles", available on my tree [1] to tun the tests with "connectable" file handles. I verified that the new test passes on xfs, ext4, ext2, btrfs, f2fs. However, the test fails on tmpfs due to: "open_by_handle() returned 116 incorrectly on an unlinked open file!" This happens because tmpfs uses d_find_alias() to get a decoded dentry, but d_find_alias() skips unhashed (deleted with refcount) dentries. I don't know if being able to decode a file handle of a deleted but open file is a requirement for nfsd or just a recommendation, but IMO it is a common case that is worth testing, even if tmpfs (or other file systems) choose not to fix this. Bruce, Jeff, What is your view on this issue? Thanks, Amir.
