[Qemu-block] [PATCH 03/10] qemu-iotests: be strict with expected output

2017-11-16 Thread Cleber Rosa
The contract between runner (check) and test is one that accepts some minor differences in the expcted output, as the comparison method employed is a "diff -w". This is an exception to a clearer and more straightforward rule of just requiring the generated output to be *equal* (and not similar)
