The question is why do you want to do this? Is there any specific
reason for running the tests in that order?
FWIW, if all you want to do is run the xfs tests, run:
$ sudo ./check xfs[0-9][0-9][0-9]
Cheers,

Personal preference. I'd like to run both series of tests, sometimes
attended, sometimes unattended. It's fine if a generic/ test crashes
the PC while running unattended, but I'd much rather the xfs/ tests have
first crack at that.
My version of the syntax was `./check xfs/[0-9][0-9][0-9]`, but that
becomes rough when skipping tests. I'll still try your version, but
I think this is a reasonable change request and I can see how this would
be very rough if you wanted to skip tests. Anyone have a reason why not
to do this?

It's a good change request, but on further testing, it seems like my
kludge patch breaks basic sorting, i.e. `./check generic/003 generic/001
generic/002` will run the tests in exactly that order. That's not
necessarily bad--principle of least surprise--but it means that to get
the old xfstests sorting behavior, it would have to be sorted using
another method.
Thanks for considering the need for more control over the order in which
groups are run. It's most certainly appreciated.
Thinking out loud: Is there a disadvantage to setting $SRC_DIR to "."
instead of "tests"? It looks like a nice way to get `./check
tests/generic/001` to run tests/generic/001 instead of issuing "unknown
test, ignored", but I've tested it only for generic/001 here at work.

irrationality and frustration have driven me to simply adding a "mls"
group to all of the tests/<fsgroup>/group files, then hoping that a
`./check -g mls` would run everything in the correct order. That led to
trying to figure out why the generic/ tests were running first, and so
on and so forth...
Thanks!
Michael
