Dear BTRFS folks,

I am hitting a potential regression of btrfs, visible only with fallocate05 test from LTP (Linux Test Project) only on 32+ core Azure instances (x86_64).

Tested: v5.8 (Ubuntu with our stable patches): PASS v5.11 (Ubuntu with our stable patches): FAIL v5.13 mainline: FAIL

PASS means test passes on all instances FAIL means test passes on other instance types (e.g. 4 or 16 core) but fails on 32 and 64 core instances (did not test higher), e.g.: Standard_F32s_v2, Standard_F64s_v2, Standard_D32s_v3, Standard_E32s_v3

Reproduction steps: git clone https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp.git cd ltp ./build.sh && make install -j8 cd ../ltp-install sudo ./runltp -f syscalls -s fallocate05

This thing keeps trying to test ext2, how do I make it only test btrfs? Thanks,
It tests all available file systems, just wait till it gets to btrfs. I don't know how to limit it only to one file system.
In the future we can add environment variable to specify the only fs to be tested. There is LTP_DEV_FS_TYPE, but that does not work when .all_filesystems flag is enabled. Thus just patch the file: Kind regards, Petr
