Yup, now that I've got the latest fstests I see that failure, too.

So if I'm reading xfs_ag_shrink_space() correctly, it doesn't
check what the new reservation will be and so it's purely looking at
whether the physical range can be freed or not? And when freeing
that physical range results in less free space in the AG than the
reservation requires, we pop an assert failure rather than failing
the reservation and undoing the shrink like the code is supposed to
do?

IOWs, the problem is the ASSERT firing on debug kernels, not the
actual shrink code that does handle this reservation ENOSPC error
case properly? i.e. we've got something like an uncaught overflow
in xfs_ag_resv_init() that is tripping the assert? (e.g. used >
ask)

So I'm not sure that the problem is the shrink code here - it should
undo a reservation failure just fine, but the reservation code is
failing before we get there on a debug kernel...

Cheers,

Dave.
