Hello everybody,
I think I nailed it down with git bisect. My first bad commit is:
75628f341ad38b68aae33eae0b5700be2a6e5769
configure: enable blkid_wiping by default if the blkid library is
present
Looks like this wipes data that is still needed... Building a package
with '--disable-blkid_wipe' now to verify on another system.
Uh, this only helps part of...
I changed my test setup and used writable snapshots. After that I got:
WARNING: DM_snapshot_cow signature detected on /dev/cvg/snap-home at
offset 0. Wipe it? [y/n]
(see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176504 for another
report)
Looks like disabling blkid_wiping fixes this. My snapshot corruption
still occurs though. :-/
Bad thing about it is that the corruption does not occur reliable when
doing simple tests in 'git bisect'... Out of ideas for now - Will go
to bed now.
Now this was helpful, I guess I think what is going on.
Great! Waiting for patches then. :D
I could provide some more information when needed:
* This happens with read only snapshots only.
* I could reproduce with commit eaa23d32732c9bc3dd4f948781b5764cf21d84ba
(wiping: add support for blkid wiping), so it was introduced there or
before.
Should I investigate further or wait for something to test from you?
Is the patch bellow fixing your problem ?
(It's still not final - but should help)

This looks good to me. I've made some backups now without any corruption.
I have not seen anything show up in git master. Or did I miss the final
solution?
No yet committed upstream - there are more ongoing fixes in this area - I'll
commit them all together.
There will also fix for lvcreate -an
