Since updating past 2.6.37, I'm seeing du(1) sometimes report files taking up 8GB even though ls(1) reports the correct size (hundreds of bytes). At the same time, df reports that the filesystem is 95% or 100% full (although I can still write to the filesystem). Repeated du calls show persistent results (once st_blocks is wrong, it stays wrong). Rebooting clears the problem for a few hours, then it seems to come back, although the exact files affected seems to change. xfs_check doesn't find any errors, and rebooting into 2.6.37 clears up the problem entirely. There's nothing in dmesg indicating a problem: Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 0.000000] Linux version 2.6.38-rc2-00175-g6fb1b30 (adi@pyron) (gcc version 4.4.5 (Debian 4.4.5-10) ) #75 SMP Thu Jan 27 00:39:11 PST 2011 Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.420170] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block/inode numbers, no debug enabled Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.434527] XFS mounting filesystem dm-8 Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.676644] Starting XFS recovery on filesystem: dm-8 (logdev: internal) Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.734279] Ending XFS recovery on filesystem: dm-8 (logdev: internal) Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.762724] XFS mounting filesystem dm-9 Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.957986] Ending clean XFS mount for filesystem: dm-9 Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 8.985909] XFS mounting filesystem dm-10 Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 9.098404] Starting XFS recovery on filesystem: dm-10 (logdev: internal) Jan 27 08:04:37 pyron kernel: [ 9.205018] Ending XFS recovery on filesystem: dm-10 (logdev: internal) /d1 is a 200GB XFS on DM on AHCI SATA on a Core i7 desktop board.
