Both of my FreeBSD ZFS slaves (8.2 and 9.1) have chflags tests failing as follows:

From the FreeBSD chflags(1) manual page:


     The flags are specified as an octal number or a comma separated list of
     keywords.  The following keywords are currently defined:

           arch, archived
                   set the archived flag (super-user only)

           opaque  set the opaque flag (owner or super-user only)

           nodump  set the nodump flag (owner or super-user only)

           sappnd, sappend
                   set the system append-only flag (super-user only)

           schg, schange, simmutable
                   set the system immutable flag (super-user only)

           sunlnk, sunlink
                   set the system undeletable flag (super-user only)

           uappnd, uappend
                   set the user append-only flag (owner or super-user only)

           uchg, uchange, uimmutable
                   set the user immutable flag (owner or super-user only)

           uunlnk, uunlink
                   set the user undeletable flag (owner or super-user only)


That indicates only root can set the immutable flag -- but if this were the case, I wonder why none of the other FreeBSD build slaves have run into it?

Either way, placeholder issue until I can spend some more time on it.

Turns out ZFS doesn't support any of the traditional chflags flags -- it returns EOPNOTSUPP for all of them.

Attached patch factors this into the various chflags tests.

I think this needs a backport to 2.7, my FreeBSD buildbots are failing on that branch since moving buildbots home directory onto a ZFS fs:

Ran 38 tests in 0.455s

I won't link the buildbot log url here since it will not be valid forever.
