I think these are caused because your version of btrfstune is too old.

If you want to skip individual tests, you can define skip variables, eg:

export SKIP_TEST_BTRFSTUNE_ENABLE_SKINNY_METADATA_EXTENT_REFS_0=1
export SKIP_TEST_BTRFSTUNE_ENABLE_EXTENDED_INODE_REFS_0=1
export SKIP_TEST_BTRFSTUNE_SEEDING_0=1
make check

To see what SKIP_* variables are available, you have to examine the
test programs.  In this case, look at `tests/c-api/tests.c'.

We have a fairly large collection of SKIP_* variables defined when
building on Fedora:
