Hi, After a reboot, the bcache devices didn't appeared. Looking at dmesg I foud out the following entries: [ 12.182288] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device dm-0 [ 12.217379] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device dm-1 [ 12.253040] bcache: error on d8e791cc-47c2-449c-909a-1e4433a5de11: bad btree header at bucket 32018, block 0, 0 keys, disabling caching [ 12.253050] bcache: register_cache() registered cache device sdb1 [ 12.253488] bcache: cache_set_free() Cache set d8e791cc-47c2-449c-909a-1e4433a5de11 unregistered Here is my device map NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE TYPE FSTYPE MOUNTPOINT UUID PARTUUID sda 8:0 0 931.5G disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 150M part ext2 0ced49ec-a9ec-4711-95b6-8ce01153ee3c 2a20f8be-8162-48db-9e51-d97e8fde21ae ├─sda2 8:2 0 49.9G part ext4 / 79f36847-8365-46da-85a1-cbab5ea9e30a 59d37a51-5f05-4356-857c-1937b793e9b1 ├─sda3 8:3 0 881.5G part LVM2_member Vzf2b6-NmgQ-5Zff-QKRS-puR8-Dlhz-XIkY3t e337497b-b1e3-479e-ba29-e1b203434e97 │ ├─vgDataNew-lvHome (dm-0) 254:0 0 50G lvm bcache ff11059e-0edf-428d-9657-37f255bac07e │ │ └─bcache0 252:0 0 50G disk ext4 /home 66bf41ef-174a-4770-b9ef-d37ab06d3f23 │ ├─vgDataNew-lvVM (dm-1) 254:1 0 100G lvm bcache 9497600e-839f-4f59-862a-a7512cb59f0a │ │ └─bcache1 252:1 0 100G disk ext4 /data/vm 5ed8126a-2bda-465e-bedb-61272d878fde │ ├─vgDataNew-lvDownloads (dm-2) 254:2 0 50G lvm /home/xxx/xxx │ └─vgDataNew-lvSwap (dm-3) 254:3 0 12G lvm [SWAP] └─sda4 8:4 0 1007K part f6826e28-5dc0-4122-ba84-8ccaffd900fd sdb 8:16 0 223.6G disk └─sdb1 8:17 0 223.6G part bcache dff8e23e-7f9a-4a14-94a0-ec5b618a35c4 ba9624c2-7fb7-4cfb-8d8a-1da6ca429820 sr0 Here is the output of bacache-super-show bcache-super-show /dev/sdb1 sb.magic ok sb.first_sector 8 [match] sb.csum C161466F71949DD0 [match] sb.version 3 [cache device] dev.uuid dff8e23e-7f9a-4a14-94a0-ec5b618a35c4 dev.sectors_per_block 8 dev.sectors_per_bucket 1024 dev.cache.first_sector 1024 dev.cache.cache_sectors 468858880 dev.cache.total_sectors 468859904 dev.cache.discard yes dev.cache.pos 0 cset.uuid d8e791cc-47c2-449c-909a-1e4433a5de11 bcache-super-show /dev/vgDataNew/lvHome sb.magic ok sb.first_sector 8 [match] sb.csum ADBDC19FD7011CAB [match] sb.version 1 [backing device] dev.uuid ff11059e-0edf-428d-9657-37f255bac07e dev.sectors_per_block 8 dev.sectors_per_bucket 1024 dev.data.first_sector 16 dev.data.cache_mode 3 [no caching] dev.data.cache_state 3 [inconsistent] cset.uuid d8e791cc-47c2-449c-909a-1e4433a5de11 bcache-super-show /dev/vgDataNew/lvVM sb.magic ok sb.first_sector 8 [match] sb.csum BFD4613F155DD0D7 [match] sb.version 1 [backing device] dev.uuid 9497600e-839f-4f59-862a-a7512cb59f0a dev.sectors_per_block 8 dev.sectors_per_bucket 1024 dev.data.first_sector 16 dev.data.cache_mode 3 [no caching] dev.data.cache_state 3 [inconsistent] cset.uuid d8e791cc-47c2-449c-909a-1e4433a5de11 As you see I restarted the devices after having changed the cache mode to "none" followed by a echo 1 > running (The state of the 2 devices were dirty) e2fsck do not report any problem on any of the bcache device I am using gentoo kernel 3.11.6. Not sure it is related but the last operations before reboot were: * extend the lvDownloads (without FS resize) * erronously executed resize2fs /dev/bcache1 which resulted in a message that indicated that the device already had the maximum length. Are there other "emegency actions" I should take (cache is till reported as inconsistent)? Any idea what can be the cause of this corruption? Do you need more information to investigate the issue? How can I fix it now? Thanks!
