Currently, I understand that my presuppositions were wrong or I simulate
situation in not proper environment. Sorry.
We can view from outputs that it really takes place situation of super
root searching by means of validation of logs (nilfs_validate_log). But
it is not so clear a reason of it. My presupposition about values in
superblocks can be a one of possible reason of reported issue. But in
current NILFS implementation primary and secondary superblocks are
swapped and flushed frequently. So, it can be a reason only in the case
when RAID influences on flush process, I think. But it is only my
suspicion. The algorithm of superblocks swapping works fine on my side
and for sudden power-off also.
So, anyway, I can suggest currently only to investigate situation more
deeply. The reason can be in some special corruption of logs or in
peculiarities of algorithm of nilfs_search_super_root() method (I think
that it is a more probable reason). But we need to have more details
about environment of the issue.
I prepared additional two patches (please, find in attachment) that add
more debug messages (especially, in the nilfs_search_super_root()
method). I suggest to apply these patches temporary and get this debug
output for the case of issue reproducing. The most of this output will
occur during mount operation and tryings to recover filesystem.
With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
