"(uint64_t *)k - i->d" is what type again? What is a %zu? Isn't that a mismatch?
You're right - ssize_t and size_t. I think gcc just isn't checking signedness at all, that %i should be a %u too. Good catch.

+static int debug_seq_show(struct seq_file *f, void *data) +{ + static const char *tabs = "\t\t\t\t\t";Seems a _very_ odd use.It is a strange hack. The idea is that we want to indent more as we recurse; we could build up a new string of tabs each time we recurse that's got one more tab than our parent's, but that'd be a pain in the ass and it'd use more stack space (though that should be fine here), so instead it's just decrementing the pointer to the tab string to produce a string with one more tab.It's a nice idea, but that's not what's happening as I believe you reference tabs only once as &tabs[4]
bch_btree_dump() prints out tabs, and passes tabs - 1 when it recurses.
