The dump program was exiting with the message: Assertion failed: (spcl.c_count + blks < TP_NINDIR), function appendextdata, file /usr/src/sbin/dump/traverse.c, line 759. The problem arose when dumping external attributes. This assertion was added in this commit with no review by someone with expertise in the dump program: commit 2d518c6518cdb256ff6f2c463e6b115d89c104c3 Author: Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: Mon Jun 11 19:32:36 2018 +0000 Commit: Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: Mon Jun 11 19:32:36 2018 +0000 Add asserts to prevent overflows of c_addr. It is clearly wrong as the statement immediately above it in the code which is deciding if the data will fit is: if (spcl.c_count + blks > TP_NINDIR) return (0); As is pointed out in the bug report, the assert should be: (spcl.c_count + blks <= TP_NINDIR) This commit corrects the assert. I am sorry that it took so long to be brought to my attention and get fixed. Reported by: Hampton Finger PR: 244470 MFC after: 3 days Sponsored by: Netflix
