I'm actually dumping v5 filesystem. The issue is that with v5 filesystem not all fields are logged (e.g. CRC isn't) and thus the length of logged buffer is shorter than the length of in-memory structure. > Its seems like various other fields have the same issue in logprint, > and I also suspect we want some defines for the v4 size instead of using > the offsetoff tricks. I had a look before I submitted this patch and I didn't find anything. Now that I'm looking again, AGI buffers probably need a similar treatment. Superblock buffers are already checked against fixed number so those don't have a problem. Dquot buffers should be fine as well because those don't have a checksum and other unlogged stuff. And I didn't find any other structures in the log that would have the problem (please point me if I missed something). Regarding how to fix this cleanly - offsetof() seems like a reasonably clean way to me. If you prefer to define number of bytes each buffer type has to have in the log, I can do that as well. Or I could define alternative structures only containing fields we need in the log so that we can print info but this all seems like an additional complexity with disputable gain...
