Testcase for a minor issue:
$ > sparse_file
$ chattr +S sparse_file
$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1 conv=sparse,notrunc of=sparse_file
...
$ lssparse sparse_file # OK
$ lssparse -H sparse_file # OK
Hole range[0]: offset=0x0, length=0x100000
$ printf X >> sparse_file
$ lssparse sparse_file # OK
Data range[1]: offset=0x100000, length=0x1
$ lssparse -H sparse_file # Missing 'Hole range[0]'
Data range[1]: offset=0x100000, length=0x1
The condition at lssparse.c:161 is never true:
141 for (i=1 ;;) {
...
161 if (print_holes && (i == 0) && (data_start > 0)) {
Possible patch attached. Important: Not tested with other corner cases.
