I have the same problem, several times.
I'd like to chime in here, with a similar issue: I have Linux on my
desktop, xfs is the home partition, 16G RAM. One day my system froze, no
chance to do a buffer flush via SYS-S/U/B, I had to press the reset
button (no power off, just reset). Upon restart, *lots* of files were
gone, destroyed, etc, and my KDE desktop wouldn't work anymore. Luckily
I have backups, and could restore - but this just shouldn't happen, and
it was *much* better with older kernels. What is the problem that
metadata isn't written to disk occasionally? I was on 3.6.6 when that
happened, now on 3.6.8, so very recent.
I am not sure this is xfs specific ... I think I've had this problem on
ext3 in the 3.x (x >= 5) region ... though I am trying to disambiguate
this from an mdadm 3.2.6 bug.
