This test corrupts an inode entry with an invalid mode through debugfs and then tries to access it. This should result in a ext4 error, which we monitor through the fanotify group.

What's the rationale?Hi Amir, That is specific to Ext4. Some ext4 conditions report bogus error codes. I will come up with a kernel patch changing it.
Well, I would not expect a FAN_FS_ERROR event to ever have 0 error value. Since this test practically only tests ext4, I do not think it is reasonable for the test to VERIFY a bug. It is fine to write this test with expectations that are not met and let it fail. But a better plan would probably be to merge the patches up to 5 to test FAN_FS_ERROR and then add more test cases after ext4 is fixed Either that or you fix the ext4 problem along with FAN_FS_ERROR. Forgot to say that the test needs to declare .needs_cmds "debugfs". In any case, as far as prerequisite to merging FAN_FS_ERROR your WIP tests certainly suffice. Please keep your test branch around so we can use it to validate the kernel patches. I usually hold off on submitting LTP tests for inclusion until at least -rc3 after kernel patches have been merged. Thanks, Amir.
