2018-06-13generic: add test for fsync of directory after creating hard linkFilipe Manana
Test that if we create a new hard link for a file which was previously fsync'ed, fsync a parent directory of the new hard link and power fail, the parent directory exists after mounting the filesystem again. The parent directory must be a new directory, not yet persisted. This test is motivated by a bug found in btrfs, where the fsync'ed parent directory was lost after a power failure. The bug in btrfs is fixed by a patch for the linux kernel titled: "Btrfs: sync log after logging new name" Signed-off-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@gmail.com>
