Why do we care if remount succeeds or fails? That's not what the
test is exercising.
i.e. We are testing to see if the appropriate deprecation warning
for a deprecated mount option has been issued or not, and that
should happen regardless of whether the mount option is valid or not
for the given filesysetm format....
Hence I don't see any reason for changing the test to exclude
noattr2 testing on v5 filesystems...
Yes, this makes sense. The test indeed just checks for the dmesg
warnings, and they appear even if the remount fails. I wrote the patch
because xfs/539 has started failing in one of our fstests CI runs
because RHEL 10 has started disabling xfs v4 support i.e,
CONFIG_XFS_SUPPORT_V4=n. Do you think modifying this patch in such a way
that the test ignores the remount failures with noattr2 and continues
the test is an appropriate idea (since the test xfs/539 only intends to
check the dmesg warnings)? So something like:,
--- a/tests/xfs/539
+++ b/tests/xfs/539
@@ -61,7 +61,11 @@ for VAR in {attr2,noikeep}; do

I also suggested something similar in one of my previous replies[1] in
this patch series. Can you please let me know your thoughts on this?
