I'm afraid that PMDK's testsuite nearly instantly makes this patchset
explode in different ways.

It'd probably be a waste of your time to require a round-trip to report such
fails and re-test.  As PMDK is probably the biggest userspace component, and
exercises DAX paths in interesting ways, I guess it'd be best if you ran its
testsuite locally until it no longer kills the kernel.


Quick start:

git clone https://github.com/pmem/pmdk
deps: libndctl-dev[el], libdaxctl-dev[el]; rest are mostly optional
(full deps for Fedora:
https://github.com/pmem/pmdk/blob/master/utils/docker/images/Dockerfile.fedora-28
SuSE's should be similar)

cp src/test/testconfig.sh{.example,}
-- then edit, you'd want:
PMEM_FS_DIR=/mnt/pmem      # where you have the dax filesystem on
KEEP_GOING=y               # to see more than one broken test

make
make test    # to build tests
make check   # to build and run all tests
cd src/test && ./RUNTESTS a_single_test

Obviously, PMDK's tests may fail due to some difference of behaviour between
ext4, xfs, and your btrfs implementation -- that'll require some
cooperation.  But crashing the kernel is something where the blame is quite
obvious.


Meow!
