Normally I do something like > > ./mmap-validate create ~/src/foo > ./populate ~/src ~/dst > ./rmeote-fetch ~/src ~/dst > ./mmap-validate validate ~/dst/foo This smells like something that should be added to fstests. FWIW, fstests used to have a whole "fake-hsm" infrastructure subsystem in it for testing DMAPI events used by HSMs. They were removed in this commit: commit 6497ede7ad4e9fc8e5a5a121bd600df896b7d9c6 Author: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Feb 11 13:33:38 2021 -0800 fstests: remove DMAPI tests Upstream XFS has never supported DMAPI, so remove the tests for this feature. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@xxxxxxxxx> See ./dmapi/src/sample_hsm/ for the HSM test code that was removed in that patchset - it might provide some infrastructure that can be used to test the fanotify HSM event infrastructure without reinventing the entire wheel... -Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
