From: Hanna Reitz Date: Thu, 23 Dec 2021 17:53:08 +0100 Subject: iotests/MRCE: Write data to source Git-commit: fc2c3996a59683685a663deb3af12183ad24e4a7 This test assumes that mirror flushes the source when entering the READY state, and that the format level will pass that flush on to the protocol level (where we intercept it with blkdebug). However, apparently that does not happen when using a VMDK image with zeroed_grain=on, which actually is the default set by testenv.py. Right now, Python tests ignore IMGOPTS, though, so this has no effect; but Vladimir has a series that will change this, so we need to fix this test before that series lands. We can fix it by writing data to the source before we start the mirror job; apparently that makes the (VMDK) format layer change its mind and pass on the pre-READY flush to the protocol level, so the test passes again. (I presume, without any data written, mirror just does a 64M zero write on the target, which VMDK with zeroed_grain=on basically just ignores.) Without this, we do not get a flush, and so blkdebug only sees a single flush at the end of the job instead of two, and therefore does not inject an error, which makes the block job complete instead of raising an error.
