Subject: [PATCH v2] tests: _fail on _scratch_mkfs_sized failure
Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2024 21:58:27 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240429115826.9171-1-ddiss@suse.de> (raw)

If _scratch_mkfs_sized() fails, e.g. due to an FS not supporting the
provided size, tests may subsequently mount and run atop a previously
created (e.g. non-size-bound) filesystem.
This can lead to difficult to debug failures, or for some -ENOSPC
exercising tests, near infinite runtimes. Avoid this by renaming the
current function to _try_scratch_mkfs_sized() and _fail in the parent
_scratch_mkfs_sized() wrapper.

Changes since v1:
- call _fail in a wrapper function, instead of adding failure handlers
  to individual test _scratch_mkfs_sized() callers.
