Please take a look and report any issues before next Wednesday (08 May
2013). If there are other patches which you feel are essential, now is
the time to say so.

The new lines (below) in xfs_check.sh breaks older xfstests:

   xfs_check is deprecated and scheduled for removal in June 2014.
   Please use xfs_repair -n<dev>  instead.

Hum, I thought xfstests stopped calling xfs_check.sh and implemented
its own xfs_check internally:

commit 187bccd310dc253feaebd69df4ccdda21eee12d0
Author: Chandra Seetharaman<sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Apr 18 17:44:02 2013 +0000

     xfstests: Remove dependence of xfs_check script

     Replace the usage of the script xfs_check and add the relevant code to
     xfstests.

...
-        [ "$XFS_CHECK_PROG" = "" ]&&  _fatal "xfs_check not found"
... etc ...

where is check getting called directly?

(Or: is your xfstests up to date?)

-Eric

I disclosed it as an older xfstests.

It is conceivable that people will install the latest xfsprogs and not upgrade xfstests. I can hear it now, "It used to just work..." :)
