Install all necessary packages from standard repositories: $ sudo zypper install acct automake bc dbench duperemove dump fio gcc git \ indent libacl-devel libaio-devel libattr-devel libcap libcap-devel \ libtool liburing-devel libuuid-devel lvm2 make quota sqlite3 xfsprogs 2. Install packages for the filesystem(s) being tested: For btrfs install: $ sudo zypper install btrfsprogs libbtrfs-devel For XFS install: $ sudo zypper install xfsdump xfsprogs-devel Build and install test, libs and utils -------------------------------------- $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfstests-dev.git $ cd xfstests-dev $ make $ sudo make install Setup Environment ----------------- 1. Compile XFS/EXT4/BTRFS/etc. into your kernel or load as module. For example, for XFS, enable XFS_FS in your kernel configuration, or compile it as a module and load it with 'sudo modprobe xfs'. Most of the distributions will have these filesystems already in the kernel/as module. 2. Create TEST device: - format as the filesystem type you wish to test. - should be at least 10GB in size. - optionally populate with destroyable data. - device contents may be destroyed. 3. (optional) Create SCRATCH device. - many tests depend on the SCRATCH device existing. - not need to be formatted. - should be at least 10GB in size. - must be different to TEST device. - device contents will be destroyed. 4. (optional) Create SCRATCH device pool. - needed for BTRFS testing - specifies 3 or more independent SCRATCH devices via the SCRATCH_DEV_POOL variable e.g SCRATCH_DEV_POOL="/dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc" - device contents will be destroyed. - SCRATCH device should be left unset, it will be overridden by the SCRATCH_DEV_POOL implementation. 5. Copy local.config.example to local.config and edit as needed. The TEST_DEV and TEST_DIR are required. 6. (optional) Create fsgqa test users and groups: $ sudo useradd -m fsgqa $ sudo useradd 123456-fsgqa $ sudo useradd fsgqa2 $ sudo groupadd fsgqa The "123456-fsgqa" user creation step can be safely skipped if your system doesn't support names starting with digits, only a handful of tests require it. 7. (optional) If you wish to run the udf components of the suite install mkudffs. Also download and build the Philips UDF Verification Software from https://www.lscdweb.com/registered/udf_verifier.html, then copy the udf_test binary to xfstests/src/. 8. (optional) To do io_uring related testing, please make sure below 3 things: 1) kernel is built with CONFIG_IO_URING=y 2) sysctl -w kernel.io_uring_disabled=0 (or set it to 2 to disable io_uring testing dynamically if kernel supports) 3) install liburing development package contains liburing.h before building fstests For example, to run the tests with loopback partitions: # xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 10g" test.img # xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 10g" scratch.img # mkfs.xfs test.img # losetup /dev/loop0 ./test.img # losetup /dev/loop1 ./scratch.img # mkdir -p /mnt/test && mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/test # mkdir -p /mnt/scratch The config for the setup above is: $ cat local.config export TEST_DEV=/dev/loop0 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/loop1 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch From this point you can run some basic tests, see 'USING THE FSQA SUITE' below. Additional Setup ---------------- Some tests require additional configuration in your local.config. Add these variables to a local.config and keep that file in your workarea. Or add a case to the switch in common/config assigning these variables based on the hostname of your test machine. Or use 'setenv' to set them. Extra TEST device specifications: - Set TEST_LOGDEV to "device for test-fs external log" - Set TEST_RTDEV to "device for test-fs realtime data" - If TEST_LOGDEV and/or TEST_RTDEV, these will always be used. - Set FSTYP to "the filesystem you want to test", the filesystem type is devised from the TEST_DEV device, but you may want to override it; if unset, the default is 'xfs' Extra SCRATCH device specifications: - Set SCRATCH_LOGDEV to "device for scratch-fs external log" - Set SCRATCH_RTDEV to "device for scratch-fs realtime data" - If SCRATCH_LOGDEV and/or SCRATCH_RTDEV, the USE_EXTERNAL environment Tape device specification for xfsdump testing: - Set TAPE_DEV to "tape device for testing xfsdump". - Set RMT_TAPE_DEV to "remote tape device for testing xfsdump" variable set to "yes" will enable their use. - Note that if testing xfsdump, make sure the tape devices have a tape which can be overwritten. Extra XFS specification: - Set TEST_XFS_REPAIR_REBUILD=1 to have _check_xfs_filesystem run xfs_repair -n to check the filesystem; xfs_repair to rebuild metadata indexes; and xfs_repair -n (a third time) to check the results of the rebuilding. - The FORCE_XFS_CHECK_PROG option was removed in July 2024, along with all support for xfs_check. - Set TEST_XFS_SCRUB_REBUILD=1 to have _check_xfs_filesystem run xfs_scrub in "force_repair" mode to rebuild the filesystem; and xfs_repair -n to check the results of the rebuilding. - xfs_scrub, if present, will always check the test and scratch filesystems if they are still online at the end of the test. It is no longer necessary to set TEST_XFS_SCRUB. Tools specification: - dump: - Set DUMP_CORRUPT_FS=1 to record metadata dumps of XFS, ext* or btrfs filesystems if a filesystem check fails. - Set DUMP_COMPRESSOR to a compression program to compress metadumps of filesystems. This program must accept '-f' and the name of a file to compress; and it must accept '-d -f -k' and the name of a file to decompress. In other words, it must emulate gzip. - dmesg: - Set KEEP_DMESG=yes to keep dmesg log after test - kmemleak: - Set USE_KMEMLEAK=yes to scan for memory leaks in the kernel after every test, if the kernel supports kmemleak. - fsstress: - Set FSSTRESS_AVOID and/or FSX_AVOID, which contain options added to the end of fsstresss and fsx invocations, respectively, in case you wish to exclude certain operational modes from these tests. - core dumps: - Set COREDUMP_COMPRESSOR to a compression program to compress crash dumps. This program must accept '-f' and the name of a file to compress. In other words, it must emulate gzip. Kernel/Modules related configuration: - Set TEST_FS_MODULE_RELOAD=1 to unload the module and reload it between test invocations. This assumes that the name of the module is the same as FSTYP. - Set MODPROBE_PATIENT_RM_TIMEOUT_SECONDS to specify the amount of time we should try a patient module remove. The default is 50 seconds. Set this to "forever" and we'll wait forever until the module is gone. - Set KCONFIG_PATH to specify your preferred location of kernel config file. The config is used by tests to check if kernel feature is enabled. - Set REPORT_GCOV to a directory path to make lcov and genhtml generate html reports from any gcov code coverage data collected by the kernel. If REPORT_GCOV is set to 1, the report will be written to $REPORT_DIR/gcov/. Test control: - Set LOAD_FACTOR to a nonzero positive integer to increase the amount of load applied to the system during a test by the specified multiple. - Set TIME_FACTOR to a nonzero positive integer to increase the amount of time that a test runs by the specified multiple. - For tests that are a member of the "soak" group, setting SOAK_DURATION allows the test runner to specify exactly how long the test should continue running. This setting overrides TIME_FACTOR. Floating point numbers are allowed, and the unit suffixes m(inutes), h(ours), d(ays), and w(eeks) are supported. Misc: - If you wish to disable UDF verification test set the environment variable DISABLE_UDF_TEST to 1. - Set LOGWRITES_DEV to a block device to use for power fail testing. - Set PERF_CONFIGNAME to a arbitrary string to be used for identifying the test setup for running perf tests. This should be different for each type of performance test you wish to run so that relevant results are compared. For example 'spinningrust' for configurations that use spinning disks and 'nvme' for tests using nvme drives. - Set MIN_FSSIZE to specify the minimal size (bytes) of a filesystem we can create. Setting this parameter will skip the tests creating a filesystem less than MIN_FSSIZE. - Set DIFF_LENGTH to "number of diff lines to print from a failed test", by default 10, set to 0 to print the full diff - set IDMAPPED_MOUNTS=true to run all tests on top of idmapped mounts. While this option is supported for all filesystems currently only -overlay is expected to run without issues. For other filesystems additional patches and fixes to the test suite might be needed. - Set REPORT_VARS_FILE to a file containing colon-separated name-value pairs that will be recorded in the test section report. Names must be unique. Whitespace surrounding the colon will be removed. - set CANON_DEVS=yes to canonicalize device symlinks. This will let you for example use something like TEST_DEV/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-* so the device remains persistent between reboots. This is disabled by default. ______________________ USING THE FSQA SUITE ______________________ Running tests: - cd xfstests - By default the tests suite will run all the tests in the auto group. These are the tests that are expected to function correctly as regression tests, and it excludes tests that exercise conditions known to cause machine failures (i.e. the "dangerous" tests). - ./check '*/001' '*/002' '*/003' - ./check '*/06?' - Groups of tests maybe ran by: ./check -g [group(s)] See the tests/*/group.list files after building xfstests to learn about each test's group memberships. - If you want to run all tests regardless of what group they are in (including dangerous tests), use the "all" group: ./check -g all - To randomize test order: ./check -r [test(s)] - You can explicitly specify NFS/AFS/CIFS/OVERLAY, otherwise the filesystem type will be autodetected from $TEST_DEV: - for running nfs tests: ./check -nfs [test(s)] - for running afs tests: ./check -afs [test(s)] - for running cifs/smb3 tests: ./check -cifs [test(s)] - for overlay tests: ./check -overlay [test(s)] The TEST and SCRATCH partitions should be pre-formatted with another base fs, where the overlay dirs will be created The check script tests the return value of each script, and compares the output against the expected output. If the output is not as expected, a diff will be output and an .out.bad file will be produced for the failing test. Unexpected console messages, crashes and hangs may be considered to be failures but are not necessarily detected by the QA system. __________________________ ADDING TO THE FSQA SUITE __________________________ Creating new tests scripts: Use the "new" script. Test script environment: When developing a new test script keep the following things in mind. All of the environment variables and shell procedures are available to the script once the "common/preamble" file has been sourced and the "_begin_fstest" function has been called. 1. The tests are run from an arbitrary directory. If you want to do operations on an XFS filesystem (good idea, eh?), then do one of the following: (a) Create directories and files at will in the directory $TEST_DIR ... this is within an XFS filesystem and world writeable. You should cleanup when your test is done, e.g. use a _cleanup shell procedure in the trap ... see 001 for an example. If you need to know, the $TEST_DIR directory is within the filesystem on the block device $TEST_DEV. (b) mkfs a new XFS filesystem on $SCRATCH_DEV, and mount this on $SCRATCH_MNT. Call the the _require_scratch function on startup if you require use of the scratch partition. _require_scratch does some checks on $SCRATCH_DEV & $SCRATCH_MNT and makes sure they're unmounted. You should cleanup when your test is done, and in particular unmount $SCRATCH_MNT. Tests can make use of $SCRATCH_LOGDEV and $SCRATCH_RTDEV for testing external log and realtime volumes - however, these tests need to simply "pass" (e.g. cat $seq.out; exit - or default to an internal log) in the common case where these variables are not set. 2. You can safely create temporary files that are not part of the filesystem tests (e.g. to catch output, prepare lists of things to do, etc.) in files named $tmp.<anything>. The standard test script framework created by "new" will initialize $tmp and cleanup on exit. 3. By default, tests are run as the same uid as the person executing the control script "check" that runs the test scripts. 4. Some other useful shell procedures: _get_fqdn - echo the host's fully qualified domain name _get_pids_by_name - one argument is a process name, and return all of the matching pids on standard output _within_tolerance - fancy numerical "close enough is good enough" filter for deterministic output ... see comments in common/filter for an explanation _filter_date - turn ctime(3) format dates into the string DATE for deterministic output _cat_passwd, - dump the content of the password _cat_group or group file (both the local file and the content of the NIS database if it is likely to be present) 5. General recommendations, usage conventions, etc.: - When the content of the password or group file is required, get it using the _cat_passwd and _cat_group functions, to ensure NIS information is included if NIS is active. - When calling getfacl in a test, pass the "-n" argument so that numeric rather than symbolic identifiers are used in the output. - When creating a new test, it is possible to enter a custom name for the file. Filenames are in form NNN-custom-name, where NNN is automatically added by the ./new script as an unique ID, and "custom-name" is the optional string entered into a prompt in the ./new script. It can contain only alphanumeric characters and dash. Note the "NNN-" part is added automatically. 6. Test group membership: Each test can be associated with any number of groups for convenient selection of subsets of tests. Group names must be human readable using only characters in the set [:alnum:_-]. Test authors associate a test with groups by passing the names of those groups as arguments to the _begin_fstest function. While _begin_fstests is a shell function that must be called at the start of a test to initialise the test environment correctly, the the build infrastructure also scans the test files for _begin_fstests invocations. It does this to compile the group lists that are used to determine which tests to run when `check` is executed. In other words, test files files must call _begin_fstest with their intended groups or they will not be run. However, because the build infrastructure also uses _begin_fstests as a defined keyword, addition restrictions are placed on how it must be formatted: (a) It must be a single line with no multi-line continuations. (b) group names should be separated by spaces and not other whitespace (c) A '#' placed anywhere in the list, even in the middle of a group name, will cause everything from the # to the end of the line to be ignored. For example, the code: _begin_fstest auto quick subvol snapshot # metadata associates the current test with the "auto", "quick", "subvol", and "snapshot" groups. Because "metadata" is after the "#" comment delimiter, it is ignored by the build infrastructure and so it will not be associated with that group. It is not necessary to specify the "all" group in the list because that group is always computed at run time from the group lists. Verified output: Each test script has a name, e.g. 007, and an associated verified output, e.g. 007.out. It is important that the verified output is deterministic, and part of the job of the test script is to filter the output to make this so. Examples of the sort of things that need filtering: - dates - pids - hostnames - filesystem names - timezones - variable directory contents - imprecise numbers, especially sizes and times Pass/failure: The script "check" may be used to run one or more tests. Test number $seq is deemed to "pass" when: (a) no "core" file is created, (b) the file $seq.notrun is not created, (c) the exit status is 0, and (d) the output matches the verified output. In the "not run" case (b), the $seq.notrun file should contain a short one-line summary of why the test was not run. The standard output is not checked, so this can be used for a more verbose explanation and to provide feedback when the QA test is run interactively. To force a non-zero exit status use: status=1 exit Note that: exit 1 won't have the desired effect because of the way the exit trap works. The recent pass/fail history is maintained in the file "check.log". The elapsed time for the most recent pass for each test is kept in "check.time". The compare-failures script in tools/ may be used to compare failures across multiple runs, given files containing stdout from those runs. __________________ SUBMITTING PATCHES __________________ Send patches to the fstests mailing list at [email protected].
