They're walked in increasing order, and it ignores the ones before @startino.

How about:

/*
 * This iterator function walks a subset of filesystem inodes in increasing
 * order from @startino until there are no more inodes.  For each allocated
 * inode it finds, it calls a walk function with the relevant inode number and
 * a pointer to caller-provided data.  The walk function can return the usual

 * XFS_IWALK_ABORT to stop the iteration.  This return value is returned to the

Yes.  I'll clarify that:

	/* Number of entries allocated for the @recs array. */
	unsigned int			sz_recs;

	/* Number of entries in the @recs array that are in use. */
	unsigned int			nr_recs;

Ok, I'll shorten the variable scope while I'm at it.

Hmm, that should be pushed to the caller, especially given the name...

We're about to zap the middle two callers, but yes, these two could be
common functions.  I wasn't sure if it was worth it to save a few lines.

sz_recs is the number of records we can store in the inobt record cache,
and nr_recs is the number of records that are actually cached.
Therefore, nr_recs should start at zero and increase until nr == sz at
which point we have to run_callbacks().

I'll add the following to the assert if that was a point of confusion:

	/*
	 * set_prefetch is supposed to give us a large enough inobt
	 * record cache that grab_ichunk can stage a partial first
	 * record and the loop body can cache a record without having to
	 * check for cache space until after it reads an inobt record.
	 */

4096 / sizeof(...); then?

since that's a single x86 page which means we're unlikely to fail the
memory allocation? :)
