Suppose xas is pointing somewhere near the end of the multi-entry batch.
Then it may happen that the computed slot already falls beyond the batch,
thus breaking the loop due to !xa_is_sibling(), and computing the wrong
order. Thus ensure that the caller is aware of this by triggering a BUG
when the entry is a sibling entry.
Is it possible to add a test case in lib/test_xarray.c for this?
You can compile the tests with “make -C tools/testing/radix-tree”
and run “./tools/testing/radix-tree/xarray”.

Sorry forgot to Cc you.
I can surely do that later, but does this patch look fine?
I am not sure the exact situation you are describing, so I asked you
to write a test case to demonstrate the issue. :)


Suppose we have a shift-6 node having an order-9 entry => 8 - 1 = 7 siblings,
so assume the slots are at offset 0 till 7 in this node. If xas->xa_offset is 6,
then the code will compute order as 1 + xas->xa_node->shift = 7. So I mean to
say that the order computation must start from the beginning of the multi-slot
entries, that is, the non-sibling entry.




This patch is motivated by code inspection and not a real bug report.
