As far as "filesystem fuzzing" goes, a trivial binary fuzzer by Ilja van Sprundel may help you to find a few kernel bugs: http://www.digitaldwarf.be/products/mangle.c
No offense at all, but seems you haven't bothered looking further in the tool. I'm actually using Ilja's mangle.c. It's "useless" without a proper 'wrapping tool' or front-end that provides the necessary functionality. (...) /* trivial binary file fuzzer by Ilja van Sprundel. It's usage is very simple, it takes a filename and headersize as input. it will then change approximatly between 0 and 10% of the header with random bytes (biased towards the highest bit set) obviously you need a bash script or something as a wrapper ! (...) I've already talked to him on possible improvements and another fellow started working on a port for FreeBSD (which is extremely welcome). One of the issues is that some filesystems perform CRC calculation and other tricks (hint: mtd code). Thus, the time before you're actually able to find a bug, increases (as most probably the generated output won't pass the CRC validation).
