xfs_repair does not run automatically at boot on any OS I know of; xfs simply
replays the log. But then I don't know what OS you are running, looks like
an amazon special? It's a pity they can't support the OS they provide you,
because on an older kernel like this, upstream developers will be less
interested unless the problem persists in upstream kernels. This sort
of support is usually best left to an OS vendor.
But all that aside, you list this as the first error:
Mar 5 01:14:33 ip-100-0-100-1 kernel: [14139930.248619] XFS (md0): Corruption detected. Unmount and run xfs_repair
but I am wondering if there might be more information before this which is not in your trimmed logs.
The text above is from xfs_corruption_error() which calls xfs_error_report() before
the above message, and which should normally tell us a lot more about what went wrong, for
example something like "Internal error %s at line %d of file %s. Caller 0x%"
and possibly a hexdump or stack trace.
One of the things in
http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_What_information_should_I_include_when_reporting_a_problem.3F
is:
" dmesg output showing all error messages and stack traces "
If you really didn't get anything else before this, try:
echo 11 > /proc/sys/fs/xfs/error_level
to capture the one instance where a corruption does not trigger verbose logs. That actually might be what you hit.
It's a little odd that you get:
Feb 12 19:47:18 ip-100-0-100-1 kernel: [2541168.014259] XFS (md0): xfs_iunlink_remove: xfs_itobp() returned error 117.
because AFAIK, 117 is not any known error number (not even xfs's old EFSCORRUPTED value, which was 990)
But I see other references in various places to this error number coming from XFS - so I'm not sure.
