Yeah, the size is the problem. .... > Every extent above is length 2097000 blocks, and they are adjacent. > But you say your realtime extent size is 512 blocks ... which doesn't go > into 2097000 evenly. So that's odd, at least. Once you realise that the bmapbt is recording multiples of FSB (4k) rather than rtextsz (2MB), it becomes more obvious what the problem is: rounding of the extent size at MAXEXTLEN - 2097000 is only 152 blocks short of 2^21 (2097152). I haven't looked at the kernel code yet to work out why it is rounding to a non-rtextsz multiple, but that is the source of the problem. The repair code is detecting that extents are not of the correct granularity, but the error message indicates that this was only ever expected for duplicate blocks occurring rather than a kernel bug. So "fixing repair" is not what is needd here - finding and fixing the kernel bug is what you shoul be looking at.
