Hi all I have an XFS filesystem on an LVM LV which resides on a RAID-10 (md) with four Seagate Exos 16TB drives. This has worked well for a long time, but just now, it started complaining. The initial logs were showing a lot of errors and I couldn't access the filesystem, so I gave it a reboot, tha tis, I had to force one. Anyway - it booted up again and looked normal, but still complained. I rebooted to single and found the (non-root) filesystem already mounted and unable to unmount it, I commented it out from fstab and rebooted once more to single. This allowed me to run xfs_repair, although I had to use -L. Regardless, it finished and I re-enabled the filesystem in fstab and rebooted once more. Starting up now, it seems to work, somehow, but ext4 still throws some errors as shown below, that is, "XFS (dm-0): corrupt dinode 43609984, (btree extents)." It seems to be the same dinode each time. Isn't an xfs_repair supposed to fix this? I'm running Debian Bookworm 12.10, kernel 6.1.0-34-amd64 and xfsprogs 6.1.0 - everything just clean debian.
