What file system is this?
For my reference, this is a common question I ask,
so we should adjust all tests to run some basic
system identification, like uname -a; df -T; ...

We've adjusted our avoidance of copy_file_range()
in this release, which may be related.
What's the output of:
  $ grep -E '^(HAVE|REPLACE)_COPY_FILE_RANGE' config.log
I would expect centos7 to have:
  HAVE_COPY_FILE_RANGE='1'
  REPLACE_COPY_FILE_RANGE='1'

thanks for testing!
