They are the sizes and offsets of on-disk structures. I get a
_not_run here because the test program fails to compile, which is
probably why I've not noticed that it might be failing. I'll look
into it that failure here.

FWIW, posting the diff of the failure will tell us if it's an
important failure or not, or whether it's just that we've removed a
bunch of typedefs and so the program output is not exactly the same
as expected....

What's the dmesg output?

That implies you are testing with MKFS_OPTION="-m crc=1", because
only CRC enabled filesystems reject the noattr2 mount option. Is
that correct?

Cheers,

Dave.
