The root cause is that our guesstimated "bufsize" from xfs_file_readdir was fairly small, and the bufsize -= length; in the loop was going negative - except bufsize is a size_t, so it was wrapping to a very large number. Then when we did ra_want = howmany(bufsize + mp->m_dirblksize, mp->m_sb.sb_blocksize) - 1; with that very large number, the (int) ra_want was coming out negative, and a subsequent compare: if (1 + ra_want > map_blocks ... was coming out -true- (negative int compare w/ uint) and we went back to xfs_bmapi() for more, even though we did not need more, and asked for 0 maps, and hit the ASSERT. We have kind of a type mess here, but just keeping bufsize from going negative is probably sufficient to avoid the problem.
