Indeed, what happens when you get different output for tests that already select an output file based on, say, platform or some other criteria? We get a combinatorial explosion of golden output files, and that is simply not manageable. The usual thing to do is update the necessary filters or change the way the tests run to avoid trivial output file differences e.g. use a subdir rather than SCRATCH_MNT directly. Or, for example the filters that munge different standard error messages from different platforms to be the same... > 1.

I'll have to look into that. However, this is definitely a case of updating the dump output filter to remove these messages from the output stream. The alternative is to change the common dump code to use a subdirectory rather than the root directory so it doesn't see these files at all. > 3. Number of files off by one. > xfsrestore: # directories and (off by 1) entries processed That would be fixed by using a subdir for the dump tests. I don't recommend that the number should be filtered, as having dump report the correct number of files scanned is important. > [ROOT] 0 0 0 00 [--------] (off by 1) 0 0 00 [--------] 0 0 0 00 [--------] Perhaps the usre/group of the use_space file needs to be changed so it doesn't impact on the test results. Alternatively, a filter could be written/modified to fix the number appropriately. > This patch also modifies check and common.quota to use the new output file > $seq.largefs.out when the --large-fs option is used (LARGE_SCRATCH_DEV = yes) > or $seq.out when the --large-fs option is NOT used (LARGE_SCRATCH_DEV != yes). > > Signed-off-by: Rich Johnston <rjohnston@xxxxxxx> > > --- > 019.largefs.out | 5 +++ > 026.largefs.out | 4 ++- > 027.largefs.out | 2 - > 028.largefs.out | 5 +++ > 046.largefs.out | 3 +- > 047.largefs.out | 5 +++ > 050.largefs.out | 72 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------------- > 056.largefs.out | 3 +- > 059.largefs.out | 2 + > 060.largefs.out | 4 ++- > 062.largefs.out | 2 + > 063.largefs.out | 3 +- > 064.largefs.out | 41 ++++++++++++++++--------------- > 065.largefs.out | 29 +++++++++++----------- > 066.largefs.out | 3 +- > check | 12 +++++++-- > common.quota | 20 ++++++++++----- > 17 files changed, 128 insertions(+), 87 deletions(-) FWIW, this patch is supposed to add these *.largefs.out files, right?
