Hi list,
I have an ext4 volume that went through a power failure,
corrupting both the first superblock and apparently at least the root
inode.
fsck managed to restore a backup superblock, so I believe that is
fine, but I am unable to see any files when the volume is mounted.
dmesg gives me the following:
EXT4-fs error (device dm-2): htree_dirblock_to_tree:919: inode
#2: block 9249: comm ls: bad entry in directory: rec_len % 4 != 0 -
offset=0(0), inode=1848761160, rec_len=32290, name_len=62
I thought a second fsck run would help, but running it with -n
gave me the following:

Which is a bad sign that something is majorly messed up.
It might also be relevant that a few days prior to this, I ran an
online resize from 10TB to 12TB. The volume had not been unmounted for
almost a year prior to that nor the days leading up to the power
failure.

fsck from util-linux 2.20.1
What would be the best way to proceed? The volume is sitting on
top of a LVM, which I had already taken a snapshot of.
