Valérie, this looks a bit odd in 02_use_64bit_io, in debugfs.c:

@@ -149,13 +149,13 @@ void do_open_filesys(int argc, char **ar
                        data_filename = optarg;
                        break;

                case 'b':
-                       blocksize = parse_ulong(optarg, argv[0],
+                       blocksize = parse_ullong(optarg, argv[0],
                                                "block size", &err);

and same for similar code in main() in debugfs.c.

Surely the block *size* doesn't need to be 64 bits :)  I guess that got
accidentally inherited from e2fsprogs-1.39 where blocksize is type
blk_t, which turned into 64 bits now... I think "int" will be fine.  :)

Thanks,
