Andy sent the logprint output privately due to the size of the

Andy,

The last reference I see of your inode in the log before the size goes
to zero is this:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------                                           
Oper (2): tid: c6720129  len: 56  clientid: TRANS  flags: none

flags 0x0 gen 0xb8791e20                                   
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This suggests the file size was 0x1a81f2218 (7115579928) and it had
0x1a81f3 (1737203) blocks across two extents (roughly 6.6GB). Note that
the file size is not exactly aligned to the (blockcount * 4096).

Further along, the following EFI exists:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oper (19): tid: 6a85c7fc  len: 48  clientid: TRANS  flags: none
EFI:  #regs: 1    num_extents: 2  id: 0xffff8bfcb4f38990
(s: 0x12a9233, l: 688643) (s: 0x34ae0d5, l: 1048560)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

... which frees two extents that add up to 688643 + 1048560 = 1737203
(0x1a81f3) blocks. The starting filesystem blocks for these extents are
0x12a9233 and 0x34ae0d5, respectively.

If you can convert those starting fsb values to agno/agbno combinations
as shown in my previous mail, you could confirm whether they reside in
the free space btrees for the associated allocation group of each
extent. If so, you could convert each start fsb to a raw daddr (xfs_db
-c "convert fsb 0x12a9233 daddr" <dev>) and use that to try and read
each extent off the raw device as previously discussed.

I have no idea whether those extents contain the file data you're after
(note that I'm not sure we've actually confirmed your file data would
have made it to disk), but if the file size values look sane that might
be worth a try before you go fishing the device for raw data.
