Sure, that was just to document possible fix.

Thanks for a hint, do you mean to put it into df_test after creating file with dd to wrap second df_verify (calls df) and df_check (runs stat and compare values)? Because that does not help - it fails when running in the loop (managed to break after 5th run). Kind regards, Petr df_test() { local cmd="$1 -P" df_verify $cmd if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then return fi df_check $cmd if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then tst_res TFAIL "'$cmd' failed, not expected." return fi ROD_SILENT dd if=/dev/zero of=mntpoint/testimg bs=1024 count=1024 if [ "$DF_FS_TYPE" = xfs ]; then fsfreeze -f $TST_MNTPOINT fi df_verify $cmd df_check $cmd if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then tst_res TPASS "'$cmd' passed." else tst_res TFAIL "'$cmd' failed." fi if [ "$DF_FS_TYPE" = xfs ]; then fsfreeze -u $TST_MNTPOINT fi ROD_SILENT rm -rf mntpoint/testimg # flush file system buffers, then we can get the actual sizes. sync } df_verify() { $@ >output 2>&1 if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then grep -q -E "unrecognized option | invalid option" output if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then tst_res TCONF "'$@' not supported." return 32 else tst_res TFAIL "'$@' failed." cat output return 1 fi fi } df_check() { if [ "$(echo $@)" = "df -i -P" ]; then local total=$(stat -f mntpoint --printf=%c) local free=$(stat -f mntpoint --printf=%d) local used=$((total-free)) else local total=$(stat -f mntpoint --printf=%b) local free=$(stat -f mntpoint --printf=%f) local used=$((total-free)) local bsize=$(stat -f mntpoint --printf=%s) total=$((($total * $bsize + 512)/ 1024)) used=$((($used * $bsize + 512) / 1024)) fi grep ${TST_DEVICE} output | grep -q "${total}.*${used}" if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "total: ${total}, used: ${used}" echo "df saved output:" cat output echo "df output:" $@ return 1 fi } > --D > > -Eric > > > ROD_SILENT rm -rf mntpoint/testimg > > > # flush file system buffers, then we can get the actual sizes.
