generic/102 sometimes fails in newest btrfs toolchain,
because it use non-mixed mode in default, which request more space
for metadata, and no space for data writing.

This patch force mixed mode for btrfs in generic/102.

This sort of filesystem size specific mkfs requirement belongs in
the filesystem specific section of _scratch_mkfs_sized().

Cheers,

Dave.

Thanks for review.

Agree with you in generic, but for this case, if we changes to use
--mixed mode in _scratch_mkfs_sized() for all btrfs, xfstests will not able to check
non-mixed mode of btrfs, which is more popular for real-world users.

So we only use --mixed mode for btrfs in generic/102 will be a better choice.
And similar way also exist in some tests of current xfstests:
  generic/204:[ $FSTYP = "xfs" ] && MKFS_OPTIONS="$MKFS_OPTIONS -l size=7m -i maxpct=50"
  generic/040:if [ "$FSTYP" = "btrfs" ]; then
            _scratch_mkfs "-O extref" >> $seqres.full 2>&1
  generic/041:if [ "$FSTYP" = "btrfs" ]; then
            _scratch_mkfs "-O extref" >> $seqres.full 2>&1
  ...

Thanks
Zhaolei

Then, as I've said before, mkfs.btrfs needs to be fixed to select
the correct mode based on the size the user is asking for.

This one is special - the test was once an XFS specific test and
then made generic. For it to continue to be useful for XFS, it needs
to use *every single free space block* and hence the filesystem
needs to be made with those options.  For other filesystems, just
using a 106MB filesystem is sufficient to *exercise* ENOSPC flushing
behaviour. Different historical context.

These, however, are exactly sort of thing needs to go away. It's a
nasty hack to handle changing defaults of the filesystem, when in
fact what should happen is either:

	a) the test shoul dnotrun because the filesystem does not
	have the correct feature enabled; or
	b) _scratch_mkfs_btrfs should set the necessary options by
	default and scrub duplicate/conflicting mkfs options.


Have you noticed just how complex _scratch_mkfs_xfs and
_scratch_mkfs_ext4 are? They handle situations where there are
conflicting/bad/missing options passed to _scratch_mkfs, and they
only fail is there's really an unfixable problem.

That's what is neeed for btrfs, not hand hacking stuff into random
tests...

Cheers,

Dave.
