My guess it's actually the mp->m_fsname dereference in xfs_fs_vcmn_err. It's fixed by the message rework in 2.6.39+, but that will only prevent the crash, you'll still get an error and the log recovery will be aborted. If you can get a more recent kernel on the box I'd be curious what the output form it is. Did you run older kernels on this machine before? Before 2.6.33 device mapper support for barriers (aka cache flushes) was incomplete and frequently led to free space corruption if people left the volatile write caches on. For MD underneath it event took a bit longer. If you just want to continue using the filesystem you can nuke the log using xfs_repair -L. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
