XFS is a special case in that fsck.xfs is a no-op - it does no checking at all and only returns values needed for init scripts to work correctly. xfs_repair/xfs_check are for checking the filesystem... > I am running a recent system (Ubuntu 11.4) and I don't thing that upgrading > util-linux should be a requirement for xfstests to work. We do not try to support every buggy piece of crap out there - if a newer version of util-linux has already fixed the problem, then use that and we don't need to do anything special with xfstests at all. If you've got bleeding edge filesystem code that requires using a ext4dev fstyp and a new ext4 userspace, then I think that requiring you to use a non-buggy util-linux is not a big deal.... --- Personally I think that ext4dev shouldn't be supported at all. A special fstyp iwhile ext4 was being developed was, IMO, a stupid thing to do in the first place, and I was happy when it died. It should not be resurrected and propagated. xfstests assumes that you are using a userspace that is current with the version of the filesystem the kernel supports. If you are running a development/special branch of ext4, then you need to be running a userspace that understands it completely. If all you are doing with the ext4dev fstyp is trying to vector to a different fsck program that supports a new set of feature bits, then IMO you are doing it all wrong. Fundamentally, the filesystem is either ext4 or it isn't. If the features are never going to make it into mainline ext4, then you need a completely different fstype and full userspace support for that fstype. Once you have that, you can add the fstype support to xfstests. However, just using a different fstyp just to set a certain set of feature flags is, again IMO, a pretty stupid way of going about this.
