PATCH 1/1 common/rc: teach _scratch_mkfs to handle mkfs option conflicts

Currently in _scratch_mkfs only xfs and ext4 could handle the mkfs failure caused by conflicts between $MKFS_OPTIONS and mkfs options specified by tests, because of _scratch_mkfs_xfs and _scratch_mkfs_ext4. This is a very useful functionality that allows tests to specify mkfs options safely and to test specific fs configurations, without worrying about mkfs failures caused by these options.

Now teach _scratch_mkfs to handle such mkfs option conflicts for other filesystems too, i.e. mkfs again only with mkfs options specified by tests. Also add the ability to filter unnecessary messages from mkfs stderr.

I suspect that $? can be undefined at this point - it's value is set by whatever the last command was run, and not all the cases above run a command. This might be better handled by something like:

	case $FSTYP in

Perhaps you could make this a function? Because then it can probably be used in _scratch_mkfs_ext4 and _scratch_mkfs_xfs as well?

Cheers,

Dave.

I suspect that $? can be undefined at this point - it's value is set by whatever the last command was run, and not all the cases above run a command. This might be better handled by something like:

I did spend some time on the return value handling, because I didn't want to do so many "return"s, and I confirmed that assigning a value does reset $? to 0 too, so mkfs_status is always defined.

case $FSTYP in
nfs*|cifs|ceph|overlay)
# unable to re-create this fstyp, just remove all files in # $SCRATCH_MNT to avoid EEXIST caused by the leftover files # created in previous runs _scratch_cleanup_files
return 0
;;

But apparently I forgot that I can group these cases together, this saves us three "return 0"s, and the logic is easier to understand, I'll take this approach.

I thought about it too, but I noticed that there're some codes to setup large fs in _scratch_mkfs_{xfs,ext4}, so I didn't dig into them.

But now I think it actually can be done, and I'm testing an updated patch, will send v2 for review later, after the new patch passes my testing.

Thanks for the review!
