Investigating a dd/sparse test failure on Solaris 10 with a
(zfs-backed?) NFS partition, I did this:
$ rm file.in; dd if=/dev/urandom of=file.in iflag=fullblock bs=1M count=3; \
n_old=0; while :; do n=$(du -k file.in|cut -f1); test $n = $n_old && continue;\
n_old=$n; printf '%04d ' $n; date +%T.%N
Maybe just require_local_dir_ ?
Offline for a few hours now.
cheers,
Pádraig.

Tempting, but that would make us skip the whole test
on all non-local file system types. I'd rather not.
This snapshot adds the ln --relative (-r) option, changes a bunch
of tests not to fail, and makes ./configure take about 10% less time.
Notably, this snapshot does not address the many MacOS-X-specific
test failures that arise due to the fact that with the new quoting
mechanism, the tools output d
FYI, without the following patch, the ls/stat-free-color test would always
fail when run on an XFS file system. That happened because the
d_type-check script would mistakenly report that XFS has d_type support,
when in fact it does not, and thus the stat syscall count in that
ls-testing script wou
