System running Debian Wheezy (amd64) with linux 3.2.35-2 and nilfs-tools
2.1.4-1. The nilfs partition is a secondary partition on a CFCard and is not
used in normal situations. There are different processes running in the
background... for example ntpd. There are no interesting infos in the system
log (unless you are interested in nilfs_cleanerd output saying nothing else
than "pause"/"sleep"/"0 segments selected to be cleaned"/...).
Following way is a good way to force a similar problem (this is not the way I
produced it the first time, but it is a possible scenario):
$ cd /nilfs/
$ ntpdate-debian
$ date -s @`date +'%s'|awk '{ print $1+9000}'`
$ for i in `seq 0 300`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=foo$i count=22528; done
$ sleep 360
$ ntpdate-debian
$ touch asd
$ rm *
$ date -s @`date +'%s'|awk '{ print $1+10000}'`
$ mount -o remount /nilfs/
It is a little bit harsh, but a similar thing can easily happen in real world
with non-monotonic clocks (but the jumps are usually a little smaller).
Kind regards,
