Package: linux-source-2.6.12
Version: 2.6.12-6
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm not sure the kernel is responsible of this problem, this can be lvm as well.

I've 2.6.12 with lvm over a software raid1.
All the filesystems are xfs.
The architecture is X86_64 on an athlon 64 3500+. The system has been created
using this architecture.

While leaving gnome, I remarked that the home filesystem was not present
anymore, I had the followwing message in teh syslog:
/----
Sep 16 18:28:12 tangerine kernel: Filesystem "dm-6": xfs_iflush: detected
corrupt incore inode 1026326, total extents = 1, nblocks = 0, ptr
0xffff81002367f600
Sep 16 18:28:12 tangerine kernel: xfs_force_shutdown(dm-6,0x8) called from line
3311 of file fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c.  Return address = 0xffffffff88118d08
Sep 16 18:28:12 tangerine kernel: Filesystem "dm-6": Corruption of in-memory
data detected.  Shutting down filesystem: dm-6
Sep 16 18:28:12 tangerine kernel: Please umount the filesystem, and rectify the
problem(s)
\---

The raid was still running and clean.

I tried xfs_check on the logical volume and the system told me that there was
valuable information on the journal and to do a xfs_repair -L to drop the
jornal. What I did, because it was impossible to mount it.

I got an inode in the lost+found directory, everything else was fine but the
balsa settings directory .balsa.

The system didnt have any crash but a couple of hours before, a program
compilation failed because I ran out of space on an other logical volume. I've
then added dynamically some space on this logical volume and expanded the
matching filesystem. 

I ran memtest86 for 10 hours to be sure (if it is possible to be sure) of the
memory integrity.

The fact I exhausted ne file system "might" have triggered the problem: I
already have this kind of problem in the past.

Regards

Jean-Luc
