When a too-small device is created with stripe geometry, we hit an assert in align_ag_geometry(): # truncate --size=10444800 testfile # mkfs.xfs -dsu=65536,sw=1 testfile mkfs.xfs: xfs_mkfs.c:2834: align_ag_geometry: Assertion `cfg->agcount != 0' failed. This is because align_ag_geometry() finds that the size of the last (only) AG is too small, and attempts to trim it off. Obviously 0 AGs is invalid, and we hit the ASSERT. Fix this by skipping the last-ag-trim if there is only one AG, and add a new test to validate_ag_geometry() which offers a very specific, clear warning if the device (in dblocks) is smaller than the minimum allowed AG size.
