Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] selftests/filesystems: Move file_stressor to dedicated subdirectory
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 20:27:19 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803145720.87583-1-disgoel@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
The file_stressor test requires a 30-minute timeout (1800 seconds) due to
its 15-minute runtime plus setup/teardown overhead. This is significantly
longer than the default 45-second timeout used by other filesystem tests.
Move file_stressor into its own subdirectory (filesystems/file_stressor/)
with a dedicated settings file to isolate its timeout configuration. This
prevents the long timeout from affecting other fast-running tests in the
filesystems/ directory.
This restructuring follows the pattern used by other selftests with special
requirements and ensures proper timeout handling in CI/CD environments
while maintaining the default 45-second timeout for other filesystem tests.
