Message-ID: <55F2449D.9090000@yale.edu> Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2015 23:03:57 -0400 From: Chris Hunter <chris.hunter@...e.edu> To: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org Subject: e2fsck discrepancy with debugfs stat ? Hi, Are there scenarios where e2fsck will report a deleted/unused inode but debugfs is able to read the inode structure ? Some details: I am using lustre version of e2fsprogs (1.42.12.wc1). When I run e2fsck in nofix/dry-run mode on a blockdev, I receive errors about unused inodes. eg) > $ e2fsck -nfv <DEV> > e2fsck 1.42.12.wc1 (15-Sep-2014) > Warning: skipping journal recovery because doing a read-only filesystem check. > Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes > Pass 2: Checking directory structure > Entry '131249395' in /O/0/d19 (118843419) has deleted/unused inode 5671802. Clear? no etc... However when I run command debugfs -c -R "stat /O/0/d19/131249395" <DEV>, I can retrieve inode contents. Further debugfs "dump" will successfully pull the contents (980 bytes) of the file entry. thanks, chris hunter chris.hunter@...e.edu -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
