Hello!

FS_IOC_FIEMAP on btrfs seems to be returning fe_physical values that
don't always correspond to the actual on-disk data locations.  For some
files the values match, but e.g. for this file:

# filefrag -v foo
Filesystem type is: 9123683e
File size of foo is 4096 (1 block of 4096 bytes)
 ext:     logical_offset:        physical_offset: length:   expected: flags:
   0:        0..       0:    5774454..   5774454:      1:             last,eof
foo: 1 extent found
#

The file data is actually on disk not in block 5774454 (0x581c76), but
in block 6038646 (0x5c2476), an offset of +0x40800.  Is this expected
behavior?  Googling didn't turn up much, apologies if this is an FAQ. :(

(This is on 4.18.16-200.fc28.x86_64, the current Fedora 28 kernel.)


Thanks,
Lennert
