I recall that a few years ago, I somehow checked my Fedora system for disk fragmentation.  I also think the tool came with Fedora; i did not have to install it separately.  Now, I don't recall the name of the tool that did that.  Nor can I find any tool to do that.  How do I check my F-28 system for disk fragmentation?

You don't. The ext2/3/4 file systems are designed to minimize fragmentation, and one of the worst things you can do is defrag your system because that will just cause constant fragmentation. In fact, the best way to defrag if you really really have to is by backing up, reformatting and restoring your system.
