    This uses the *fiemap* ioctl implemented in the Linux kernel. See
    `Documentation/fiemap.txt`_ for more information.

    This procedure returns a named tuple containing all non-reserved fields as
    exposed by the fiemap and fiemap_extent structs. See
    :py:func:get_all_mappings if you want to retrieve all mappings of a given
    file.

    Note the attributes of the result don't have an *fm_* or *fe_* prefix.

assert fm_extents[-1].flags | FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST == FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST

Shouldn't this be &?
