Subject: Re: resize2fs: Should never happen: resize inode corrupt! - lost key
inodes
In an attempt to further isolate what versions of e2fsprogs, at a commit
level, that are
needed to reproduce the bad behavior I tried my own step-by-step,
initially with a much
higher -i 16777216 to mkfs.ext4 in the hope that fewer inodes would make
all the
operations run faster.
When I was unable to reproduce with -i 16777216 instead, I switched back
to exactly
what I reproduced with the first time, and I *still* did not get the
"Should never happen:
resize inode corrupt!".
The only reasonable explanation I can come up with to this is that
something is not being
initialized properly that resize2fs expects to be initialized. I have no
indications of any
issues with any hardware or the underlying md block.
What I did however notice is that I can have the same kind of filesystem
corruption
*without* seeing the "Should never happen: resize inode corrupt!"
message using the
following sequence, and this *is* reproducible one time after another:
# MKE2FS_CONFIG=/root/e10/out/etc/mke2fs.conf
/root/e10/out/sbin/mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0 -i 262144 -m 0 -O 64bit 15627548672k
# e2fsck -fy /dev/md0 (using 1.42.13)
# resize2fs -p /dev/md0 19534435840k (using 1.42.13)
# resize2fs -p /dev/md0 (using 1.42.13)
# e2fsck -fn /dev/md0
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
ext2fs_check_desc: Corrupt group descriptor: bad block for inode table
e2fsck: Group descriptors look bad... trying backup blocks...
Superblock has an invalid journal (inode 8).
Clear? no
e2fsck: Illegal inode number while checking ext3 journal for /dev/md0
At this point the root inode is also bad and this fails:
# mount /dev/md0 /mnt/loop -o ro,noload
mount: mount /dev/md0 on /mnt/loop failed: Stale file handle
[3766493.732188] EXT4-fs (md0): get root inode failed
[3766493.732190] EXT4-fs (md0): mount failed
Note that only versions 1.42.10 and 1.42.13 are involved now, 1.42.12 is
not needed.
Kernel is the debian:
ii linux-image-4.0.0-2-amd64 4.0.8-2 amd64 Linux
4.0 for 64-bit PCs
For the record I also tried a more recent e2fsprogs for the resize
(instead of 1.42.13),
locally built from:
956b0f1 Merge branch 'maint' into next
and I could still reproduce it on the first attempt.
More verbose logs follows.
Does anyone else have some kind of testbed to test the same sequence of
commands?
