Hope this is the right list to ask this question.

I have an ext4 filesystem that has a few errors like this:

Sep 30 19:14:09 atlas kernel: EXT4-fs error (device md2):
ext4_lookup:1448: inode #7913865: comm find: deleted inode
referenced: 7912058
Sep 30 19:14:09 atlas kernel: EXT4-fs error (device md2):
ext4_lookup:1448: inode #7913865: comm find: deleted inode
referenced: 7912055

Yet, when I run e2fsck -fy on it, I have a clean run, no errors are
found and/or fixed. Is this the expected behaviour? What am I
supposed to do to get rid of errors like the above?

[I should hope not.]

The filesystem is on a md mirror device, the kernel is 3.17.0-rc7,
e2progs 1.42.12-1 (Debian sid). Could md device somehow interfere? I
ran md check yesterday, but there were no errors.

BTW, this all started when I got ata2.00: failed command: FLUSH
CACHE EXT error yesterday morning. I did several runs of e2fsck
before the filesystem came up clean, yet errors like the above are
popping constantly.

Normally that kernel message only happens if a dir refers to an inode with
link_count and mode set to 0.

Is the disk attached to ata2.00 one of the RAID1 mirrors?  What was the full
error message, and does smartctl -a report anything?

Yes, it is part of the mirror:

ata2.00: ATA-8: WDC WD1002FBYS-02A6B0, 03.00C06, max UDMA/133
ata2.00: 1953525168 sectors, multi 0: LBA48 NCQ (depth 31/32), AA
ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133

      bitmap: 0/8 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk

Full error message from the kernel log, together with data check I did in the evening:

Later on I did several (at least 3) e2fsck runs until the filesystem finally was clean of errors. Only to stumble upon new errors today that can't be fixed with e2fsck anymore. :(


It would be interesting to see what "debugfs -R 'stat <7912058>' /dev/md2"
returns.

Tried to delete that directory - impossible, i/o errors. I'll try to reboot now to see if anything changes...

Thanks for your help.
