[PATCH] generic/175, generic/176: cleanup testdir before exit

[Murphy Zhou]

Usually the _mkfs helper will cleanup these directories at the
beginning of testcase. However, when testing on NFS, the cleanup
could be very slow and it is confusing that: We have already
started to run generic/176 but we get stuck in _mkfs, cleaning
up files left by the previous testcase generic/175.

To be clear, cleanup testdir before exit. Also, deleting files
should be part of the stress test.

The _scratch_mkfs logic for NFS is:
  [ -n "$SCRATCH_MNT" ] || return 1
  _scratch_mount
  rm -rf $SCRATCH_MNT/*
  _scratch_unmount

If you feel NFS is 'very slow', and isn't normal, you can check how
NFS is dealing with the reflink file of g/175.

Hmm... that makes more sense than above reason, although we generally
don't cleanup SCRATCH_MNT/* at the end of a case. Due to if you need to
cleanup SCRATCH_MNT/* for NFS, why only these 2 cases need to do that?
We might need a better reason/comment to explain, e.g. it cover a issue
of NFS?

BTW, the cleanup operation can be in _cleanup() function, likes:
  [ -d "$testdir" ] && rm -rf $testdir

Thanks,
Zorro

These 2 lines are the real reasons for adding this.

Yeah, I see. I mean if for this reason, too lots of cases need to do
'rm -rf $SCRATCH_MNT/*' at the end, due to most of them leave something
in $SCRATCH_MNT/ , and will be cleaned by next _scratch_mkfs*, especially
for un-local filesystem(e.g. NFS, CIFS, glusterfs ...). They all make no
sense.

If only cleanup $SCRATCH_MNT/* in g/175 and g/176, the reason is better to be
'cover a known issue' when cleanup $SCRATCH_MNT in g/175 and g/176. That's
my personal review point :)

Zorro

In that case, please rewrite the commit message to say that we're
enhancing this stress test to include inactivation of the files it
creates.

Deleting them would be a good testcase to me. After all the tests,
deleting them should not cause any problem, or spending to much
time. Leaving them behind and letting them get formatted by mkfs,
definitely will be faster, but may make potential problems not
discovered.


If you think the deleting will be extremely slow, maybe it's time
to optimize how xfs deleting reflinked files.

It exists to zap the scratch devices into enough of a clean state that
whatever contents a test wrote to the scratch devices cannot easily
(e.g. mount) leak into the next test.  IOWs, exactly where you'd want
FSTYP=NFS to delete whatever junk is in the scratch mount.

Plus then you get a clean nfs scratch mount at the start of each test
without needing to whackamole each test.

Also this will massively slow down generic/17[56] on btrfs/XFS
considering that we don't care about deleting the massively reflinked
file we created.

Hmm, it's hard to tell. Deleting these files at anywhere makes sense.
This patch is hardly a "fix", just trying to make it more clear.

That's for devices I believe..

Isn't this a general problem with the way nfs handles "mkfs" on scratch
devices?  So you'd want to fix this once by doing the cleanup between
tests instead of playing whackamole with whatever crazy file tests we
think of next?

Or put another way, this probably ought to be in _try_wipe_scratch_devs()

[PATCH] generic/175, generic/176: cleanup testdir before exit

[Murphy Zhou]

Usually the _mkfs helper will cleanup these directories at the
beginning of testcase. However, when testing on NFS, the cleanup
could be very slow and it is confusing that: We have already
started to run generic/176 but we get stuck in _mkfs, cleaning
up files left by the previous testcase generic/175.

To be clear, cleanup testdir before exit.
