I've asked this before: please trim/paste your stack traces so they
don't line wrap and are human readable.

So, you powered off an active machine while writing to it, and after
it started back up it hit a free space between corruption. And then
you couldn't mount it because log replay was trying to replay the
last committed transaction to the log. That transaction shows inode
132 being unlinked, added to the AGI unliked list, and then being
inactivated. There is an EFI committed for 1 extent. There is no EFD
committed, so the shutdown occurred during that operation. Log
replay then hits the corruption repeatedly by trying to replay the
EFI to complete the extent free operation.

So, the log and the repair output are useless for determining what
caused the problem - you need the log from the mount *before* the
first shutdown occurred, and to have run repair *before* you
tried to unlink anything. IOWs, if you are doing power fail testing,
you need to test the validity of your filesystems before you do
anything else on them. e.g. Once powered back up, copy the log
before mounting the filesystem, then mount it to replay the log,
then unmount it and run xfs_repair -n to check it. That way you'll
catch any problem caused by the power loss and have some hope of
determining what caused it because you preserved the original
log....

However, seeing as this was due to power failure, I have to ask the
obvious question: does you hardware correctly support barriers/cache
flush/FUA operations and are they turned on?

Cheers,

Dave.
