I think Dave has an interesting idea here. You already have: 1) only set XFS_XFLAG_PROJINHERIT on directories in setup_project, 2) update check_project to print the right warning based upon the above, Now all you need is: 3) update _check_scratch_fs to filter "directory flags set on non-directory inode %llu" I guess the downside of that is the test might subsequently miss other related failure modes of xfs_repair. Maybe it would be better to make xfs_repair have a separate error message for this specific case, and then filter that out of the test output. How would you know when it's ok to remove the filter?
