[PATCHSET v1.0 0/4] fstests: support metadump to external devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

This series modifies fstests to take advantage of the fact that
xfs_metadump and xfs_mdrestore now support capturing the contents of an
external log in a metadump, and restoring it on the other end.  The
first part of this series refactors and cleans up the common code a bit,
and the rest add the actual support.  Once this is merged, we'll be able
to cache metadumps of populated filesystems with external log devices,
which will enable faster fuzz testing.

If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just
pull from my git trees, which are linked below.

This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything.  Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
