You didn't include a cover letter in this patchset.  Can you explain what
problem this patchset is meant to solve?

Note that there are multiple factors that affect whether inline encryption can
be used with a particular file, such as whether the device supports the required
encryption mode, data unit size, and data unit number size.  So your warning
might not trigger even if inline encryption can't be used.  Also, your warning
will never trigger if the kernel has CONFIG_BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION_FALLBACK=y.

I recently sent out a patch that makes fs/crypto/ consistently log a message
when starting to use an encryption implementation for the first time:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220414053415.158986-1-ebiggers@kernel.org.  It
already did this for the crypto API, but not blk-crypto.  Being silent for
blk-crypto was somewhat of an oversight.  These log messages make it clear which
encryption implementations are in use.

Does that patch solve the problem you are trying to solve?

What I'm try to make is when devices not support inlinecrypt, do not show inlinecrypt in mount option. 
When I test fscrypt first, it make me confused. Not a real problem, just make this logical more reasonable.
Do you think this needs to be revised?

Well, I'm just not sure we should do this, or at least by itself, given that
support for inline encryption is not an either-or thing, and the inlinecrypt
mount option is already documented to apply only to files where inline
encryption can be used.  See Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst:

	Note that the "inlinecrypt" mount option just specifies to use inline
	encryption when possible; it doesn't force its use.  fscrypt will
	still fall back to using the kernel crypto API on files where the
	inline encryption hardware doesn't have the needed crypto capabilities
	(e.g. support for the needed encryption algorithm and data unit size)
	and where blk-crypto-fallback is unusable.  (For blk-crypto-fallback
	to be usable, it must be enabled in the kernel configuration with
	CONFIG_BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION_FALLBACK=y.)

And Documentation/admin-guide/ext4.rst and Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.rst:

	When possible, encrypt/decrypt the contents of encrypted files using the
	blk-crypto framework rather than filesystem-layer encryption. ...

If we do want to warn when inlinecrypt is given but inline encryption cannot be
used, your patchset isn't enough since it only covers the case where no form of
inline encryption is available at all, and not the case where some form of
inline encryption is available but the filesystem can't use it.

Well, I'm just not sure we should do this, or at least by itself, given that
support for inline encryption is not an either-or thing, and the inlinecrypt
mount option is already documented to apply only to files where inline
encryption can be used.  See Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst:

	Note that the "inlinecrypt" mount option just specifies to use inline
	encryption when possible; it doesn't force its use.  fscrypt will
	still fall back to using the kernel crypto API on files where the
	inline encryption hardware doesn't have the needed crypto capabilities
	(e.g. support for the needed encryption algorithm and data unit size)
	and where blk-crypto-fallback is unusable.  (For blk-crypto-fallback
	to be usable, it must be enabled in the kernel configuration with
	CONFIG_BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION_FALLBACK=y.)

And Documentation/admin-guide/ext4.rst and Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.rst:

	When possible, encrypt/decrypt the contents of encrypted files using the
	blk-crypto framework rather than filesystem-layer encryption. ...

If we do want to warn when inlinecrypt is given but inline encryption cannot be
used, your patchset isn't enough since it only covers the case where no form of
inline encryption is available at all, and not the case where some form of
inline encryption is available but the filesystem can't use it.

Indeed; some encryption algorithms won't be available because they
weren't compiled into the kernel; others because block device for a
particular file system doesn't support inline crypto.

It seems to me that the test or the test runner should be able to
figure this out.  It should be able to explicitly try to set a
particular policy, and if that policy fails, it should give an
intelligent message, e.g., "Skipping this test config because
inline-crypto isn't supported."

Why can't we fix this in the test runner's scripts?

Thanks for your explanation, this patchset has too many case to forget to handle...
Back to my first thought, maybe there should have one sysfs node to indicate the 
device support inlinecrypt or not ? So user can know it's device not support inlinecrypt
and not for other reasons.

Thanks.

Linux v5.18 has that.  See https://git.kernel.org/linus/20f01f1632036660
