https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204285 Bug ID: 204285 Summary: ext2fs_check_desc: Corrupt group descriptor: bad block for block bitmap (and unable to set superblock flags) Product: File System Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 4.9.168 Hardware: All OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: ext4 Assignee: fs_ext4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: bonaccos@xxxxxxxxxx Regression: No Hi I'm not sure if this just needs to be blamed on possible controller issues or can/should be looked at as well from kernel side. If not the latter please let me know and close the bug. Further disclaimer: The data on that device was used as scratch disc, so if needed there can be experimented further before we will go and recreate it. The affected ext4 filesystem (server running a Debian stretch, with kernel 4.9.168-1+deb9u3 / 4.9.168-1+deb9u4) lives on LVM device created on top of volumes provided by an Areca ARC-1882IX-24 controller. The volumes it provides are created as RAID6. In one of these volumes there was a disk failure, configured hotspare was used. While rebuilding, there was a time out error for an other disk. This is for some background information. Shortly after that on the system the following was logged: [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] EXT4-fs error (device dm-11): ext4_iget:4528: inode #78943420: comm nfsd: checksum invalid [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1542 at /build/linux-s3NwpH/linux-4.9.168/fs/nfsd/nfsproc.c:801 nfserrno+0x71/0x80 [nfsd] [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] nfsd: non-standard errno: -74 [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] Modules linked in: ip6table_filter ip6_tables xt_tcpudp iptable_filter binfmt_misc rpcsec_gss_krb5 nfsv4 dns_resolver nfs fscache quota_v2 quota_tree intel_rapl sb_edac edac_core x86_pkg_temp_thermal intel_powerclamp coretemp kvm irqbypass crct10dif_pclmul joydev crc32_pclmul ghash_clmulni_intel iTCO_wdt mgag200 sg iTCO_vendor_support evdev intel_cstate intel_uncore ttm drm_kms_helper intel_rapl_perf wmi drm pcspkr lpc_ich mfd_core mei_me shpchp mei ioatdma button nfsd auth_rpcgss oid_registry nfs_acl lockd grace sunrpc loop ip_tables x_tables autofs4 ext4 crc16 jbd2 fscrypto ecb mbcache raid10 raid456 async_raid6_recov async_memcpy async_pq async_xor async_tx xor raid6_pq libcrc32c crc32c_generic raid1 raid0 multipath linear md_mod dm_mod hid_generic usbhid hid sd_mod crc32c_intel aesni_intel [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] aes_x86_64 glue_helper lrw gf128mul ablk_helper cryptd isci libsas ahci scsi_transport_sas libahci ehci_pci ehci_hcd igb i2c_algo_bit dca ptp libata usbcore arcmsr i2c_i801 pps_core usb_common i2c_smbus scsi_mod [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] CPU: 0 PID: 1542 Comm: nfsd Not tainted 4.9.0-9-amd64 #1 Debian 4.9.168-1+deb9u3 [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600CP V-13.09.100/S2600CP, BIOS SE5C600.86B.01.08.0003.022620131521 02/26/2013 [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] 0000000000000000 ffffffffa1135504 ffffb7b085defba0 0000000000000000 [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] ffffffffa0e7a6ab ffff9fc9ea61d418 ffffb7b085defbf8 ffff9fc9e95bd000 [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] 000000000000356c 0000000000000800 ffff9fc9b1705818 ffffffffa0e7a72f [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] Call Trace: [Sun Jul 21 16:54:38 2019] [<ffffffffa1135504>] ?
