AUXILIARY PROGRAMS FOR TESTING
|
||
|
|
==============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not everything a test script can do is easily done within a test script;
|
||
|
|
sometimes it makes a lot more sense to write auxiliary program in C and have
|
||
|
|
the test script call them. Auxiliary commands can be found in the src/
|
||
|
|
directory and in other packages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tests wanting to use an auxiliary program found in the src/ directory should
|
||
|
|
note the dependency with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_require_test_program "<program-name>"
|
||
|
|
|

|
|

af_unix
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The af_unix program creates an AF_UNIX socket at the given location.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
stat_test
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The stat_test program is primarily designed to exercise the statx()
|
||
|
|
system call. It can check statx() against fstatat() and it can
|
||
|
|
compare and check various file attributes.
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
xfs_io
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The xfs_io program can be found in the xfsprogs package and can be used
|
||
|
|
to perform sequences of I/O commands, though it is limited to what it
|
||
|
|
can do on open files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
xfs_io is a debugging tool that is aimed at examining regular file I/O
|
||
|
|
paths rather than a raw XFS volume itself. These code paths include
|
||
|
|
not only the obvious read/write/mmap interfaces for manipulating files,
|
||
|
|
but also cover all of the XFS extensions (such as space preallocation,
|
||
|
|
additional inode flags, etc).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Most of its commands can also be used with other filesystems.
