Summary0000581: Upstream bug report referring to generic/363 or generic/364
DescriptionHello all,

I am running xfstests on Azure Managed Disks (ext4).
The following tests fail or hang:

generic/363 → READ BAD DATA mismatch

generic/364 → hang during high-offset dedupe

generic/303/304 → long delays related to reflink/dedupe I/O

The failures occur only on cloud-managed or virtualized disks.
On local NVMe disks, these tests pass.

My understanding is that these failures are expected on cloud storage due to:

non-deterministic I/O ordering

write coalescing

internal caching

delayed allocation

virtualization layers between guest and disk

Since this is not an ext4 bug, I could not find a specific upstream bug report referring to generic/363 or generic/364.

Question:
Is there an upstream discussion, mailing list thread, or LKML comment that documents this known behavior? A single reference (even if general) would be helpful.

Thanks,
Harish
