Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.42.12-1.1
Severity: normal
File: /sbin/badblocks

I'm trying to test a zfs volume:

# badblocks -b 4096 -c 4096 -s -s -w  /dev/test/test
badblocks: Value too large for defined data type invalid end block 
(8650752000): must be 32-bit value

# zfs list
NAME        USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
test       33.2T   988G   153K  /test
test/test  33.2T  34.2T  6.32G  -

So yeah, the volume is big. But seriously? Who uses a 32bit variable
to store the number of blocks of a disk on a 64bit system? Who then
checks for it to overflow instead of simply changing it to 64bit (at
least on 64bit systems)?
