Is the relative path necessary, can we use absolute path at here?

Why not "cat $FTRACE_DIR/trace" ?

Can `_require_xfs_io_error_injection` help that?

Oh, you'd like to avoid depending on xfs_io ?

I didn't find the "bmap -c" option, is it a new option? Won't it break the

Should we *wait* background processes in cleanup after removing $sentryfile.
