Sure, just trying to be a bit defensive as people often forget
_requires directives when writing new tests....

What I was suggesting was doing all of these in one function similar
to _require_xfs_sparse_inodes, _require_meta_uuid, etc:

_require_online_label_change()
{
	# need xfs_io support
	_require_xfs_io_command "label"

	# need fstests knowledge of label size
	[ $(_label_get_max) -eq 0 ] && _notrun "$FSTYP does not define maximum label length"

	# need kernel support
	$XFS_IO_PROG -c label $TEST_DIR > /dev/null 2>&1
	[ $? -ne 0 ] && _notrun "Kernel does not support FS_IOC_GETLABEL"
}

Which also means that the label_f command in xfs_io needs to set the
exitcode to non-zero when the ioctl fails so that xfs_io returns
non-zero on failure...

Cheers,

Dave.
