Re: XFS Test Case:252 - Shows Wrong Output

[Amit Sahrawat <amit.sahrawat83@xxxxxxxxx>]

Fortunately or Unfortunately I have 2.6.31(x86) and 2.6.35.13(ARM) and both do not support "fpunch". As per your earlier mail - 2.6.35.y does not support "fpunch" so I though of trying on 2.6.31.y.

 

I will check out for the return errors in this condition and will update more on this.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Amit Sahrawat

The fpunch command did not punch the range out.

Amit, once again you're testing on a kernel (2.6.31) that does not
support the punch operation. As I suggested previously, you need to
find out why the fpunch command is not returning an error as that is
root cause of your failures.

Cheers,

Dave.
