That's only a limit on the mkfs leafsize parameter, yes? An the
limiation is that the leaf size can't be smaller than page size?
So really, the attribute sizes that are being tested are independent
of the mkfs parameters being tested. i.e:
for attrsize in `seq 4 4 64`; do
if [ $attrsize -lt $pagesize ]; then
leafsize=$pagesize
else
leafsize=$attrsize
fi
$BTRFS_MKFS_PROG -l $leafsize $SCRATCH_DEV
And now the test executes a fixed loop, testing the same attribute
sizes on all the filesystems under test. i.e. the attribute sizes
being tested are *independent* of the mkfs parameters being tested.
Always test the same attribute sizes, the mkfs parameters simply
vary by page size.

While I agree with the sentiment, I'm questioning the
implementation. i.e. you've done this differently to every other
test that needs to check for failures. run_check woul dbe just
fine, as would be simply filtering the output of mkfs.
FWIW, the method for detecting the cp error in the second commit
is for a very specific case. It could have also been done with a
filter, as we have done in the past with such error messages. So
what's good for one case is not necessarily the right way to handle
the output for another.
Cheers,
Dave.
