Subject: resize2fs on ext4 leads to corruption

I think I may have run into a resize2fs bug that leads to data loss. I 
see this:

# mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /mnt/RED8
mount: /mnt/RED8: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, 
missing codepage or helper program, or other error.

Besides reporting the issue and gathering as much information as I can 
to help debug this, I'd also like to ask for some assistance trying to 
recover
the data. I'm prepared to put in some effort. I'm on Gentoo and can 
apply git patches and rebuild the kernel or compile e2fsprogs.

The system is a *32-bit* Gentoo installation built well over a decade 
ago, but is kept reasonably up to date.

Here is the sequence of steps that lead to data loss:

Added one 8TB disk to a md raid5 array:

--backup-file=/root/grow_md0_20220410.bak  /dev/md0

# umount /mnt/RED8

# fsck.ext4 -f -v -C 0 -D /dev/md0

# mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /mnt/RED8

At this stage I used the system for about a week without any issues. 
Then earlier today:

# umount /mnt/RED8

Resizing the filesystem on /dev/md0 to 5860419840 (4k) blocks.
The filesystem on /dev/md0 is now 5860419840 (4k) blocks long.

So far so good. Everything appears to be working just fine until now.

# mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /mnt/RED8
mount: /mnt/RED8: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, 
missing codepage or helper program, or other error.

# e2fsck -f -C 0 -b 32768 -z /root/20220415_2015_e2fsck-b_32768.e2undo 
/dev/md0
e2fsck 1.46.4 (18-Aug-2021)
Overwriting existing filesystem; this can be undone using the command:
      e2undo /root/20220415_2015_e2fsck-b_32768.e2undo /dev/md0

e2fsck: Undo file corrupt while trying to open /dev/md0

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
      e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
   or
      e2fsck -b 32768 <device>

In light of recent mailing list traffic, I suspect that the issue may be 
caused by sparse_super2 .

Any suggestions as to what I could try to recover? Unfortunately, I do 
not have an undo file for the resize2fs run (which is a bit unusual for 
me, since I usually tend to take advantage of safety features).

Thanks,

      Peter Urbanec
