Hi Stefan,
a) Increase the test coverage of the file systems provided by Genode in order to transparently and continuously demonstrate the quality of the framework and to make sure regressions won't go unnoticed once a file system component is being used in a product.
b) Compare file system scenarios available in Genode.
Would you see value in such tests?
This aligns very well with the statement I gave at the end of my last email. Your efforts would be very much appreciated.
The risk of regressions is indeed a major concern when optimizing code that is already time-tested. Hence, profound file-system tests might be a good pathway towards structural optimization work in the longer-term future.
Cheers Norman
