Hi,
XFStests suite generic/311 test fails on command: "sbin/dmsetup load
flakey-test --table "0 150000001 flakey /dev/sdc2 0 0 180 1
drop_writes" with error: "device-mapper: reload ioctl on flakey-test
failed: Invalid argument", so as I understand the command format
provided to ioctl is incorrect here. Kernel logs has message:
"Jun 13 16:47:15 tests kernel: device-mapper: table: 252:3: flakey:
dm-flakey: Invalid argument count
Jun 13 16:47:15 tests kernel: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding
target to table"
What kernel and version of dmsetup are you using? If it is too old
to support the flakey target, then we need a new require rule check
for the test to avoid old versions of dmsetup...
Kernel version is 2.6.39, version of device-mapper-libs is 1.02.77.
So it's an old version of both the kernel and DM, so it's probably
not been tested at all. Like I said - it probably needs a better
check in _require_dm_flakey() to determine if the test should be run
or not.
I agree about kernel version, but why DM version of 1.02.77 is also old?
I though that I am using the latest version of DM referenced by these
sources:
"Releases
The userspace code (dmsetup and libdevmapper) is now maintained
alongside the LVM2 source available from http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2/."
http://www.sourceware.org/dm/
and
"Source code
The source code is stored in git and can be accessed with git clone
git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/lvm2.git
There is a web interface to git at http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/lvm2.git"
http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2/
so finally I've got DM of version 1.02.77 within lvm2 package of version
2.02.98 from http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/lvm2.git, it's of latest
released version in the provided list.
Most recent lvm2 package from master branch of 2.02.99 version contains
DM ofversion 1.02.78 which has no attribute "drop_writes" in sources as
well.
Thanks,
Alexander Tsvetkov
Patches are welcome...
Cheers,
Dave.
