    This issue exists independently of the large extent counter, and it is related to grub commit ef7850c75 ("fs/xfs: Fix issues found while
    fuzzing the XFS filesystem"). That's actually the issue described in #1051543.

    Ah, yes -- good point.

    There's a proposed fix at [1], and it works as expected with that patch applied.
    ...
    [1] https://lore.kernel.org/grub-devel/20231018030347.36174-1-nuxi@vault24.org/

    I can confirm that having applied both patches:

    https://salsa.debian.org/philh/grub2/-/pipelines/596346

    it now succeeds at both installing grub, and then booting the system:

    https://openqa.debian.net/tests/200503#details

    Thanks for confirming, perhaps then you can add your tested-by in the respective patches upstream.

    BTW, another handy way to test if this works is via grub-mount.

    Any chance we could have an updated grub2 package to fix this?


    Cheers,

    Julian Andres Klode <julian.klode@canonical.com> (2023-12-25):
    We picked the previous XFS patch for extent parsing but did not pick
    this one because it had not been merged at that point yet, the fix
    only got merged two weeks or so ago, and we didn't want to take chances
    and pick it ahead of time as it's security critical code (filesystem
    parsing is where all the security bugs live!).

    The release was supposed to be out 2 weeks ago but got pushed back
    another week to last week's release, sadly.

    Thanks for all the details, and sorry if it appeared I was chasing you
    down; I just stumbled upon this again while re-testing various things,
    and was merely wondering whether things were.


    Cheers,
