Subject: tests: cp: ensure copy offload is not disabled for sparse files
X-Git-Tag: v9.8~97
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6c668dc133af7d374790c1da666a701e21682a35;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

tests: cp: ensure copy offload is not disabled for sparse files

Related to commits v9.1-109-g879d2180d and v9.7-248-g306de6c26

* tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: This edge case was missed a couple of times,
so add a test to ensure we attempt copy offload.
