I got segfault at same place as reported first time.
So, uhm, what do you need to see?
I was putting together:
- machine info (cat /proc/meminfo, cat /proc/cpuinfo, uname -r)
- kernel log
- core.dump with debugging symbols
- output of xfs_repair
- output of strace $(xfs_repair)
I will put all the logs in place and send tomorrow as ... i forgot to raise core size limit for my shell ... and today I am toasted and I am better to go home and sleep.
Tell me if you need anything else.
Regards.

Hello,
-m option seems not to handle the excessive memory consumption I ran into.
I actually ran xfs_repair -vv -m1750 and looking into kern.log it seems that xfs_repair invoked oom killer, but was killed itself ( !! )
This is last try to reproduce segfault:

I'll try xfs_repair -L -vv -P -m 2000 to keep memory consuption at a limit.--On Tue, May 7, 2013 at 3:36 PM, Filippo Stenico <filippo.stenico@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:I still got back around 6TB out of 7.2 TB of total data stored, so this tells xfs is reliable even when major faults occur...On Tue, May 7, 2013 at 3:20 PM, Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:On 5/7/13 4:27 AM, Filippo Stenico wrote:

That's right....No real way to know where it went from the available data I think.
A few things:

> mount: Structure needs cleaning
mount failed? Now's the time to look at dmesg to see why.

Uh, now it worked, with no other steps in between? That's a little odd.
Looks odd to me too. But i just copied the commands issued as they where on my console... so yes, nothing in between.It found a clean log this time:
> XFS mounting filesystem dm-1
> Ending clean XFS mount for filesystem: dm-1
which is unexpected.
So the memory consumption might be a bug but there's not enough info to go on here.
worth reporting, but I'm not sure what we can do with it.

Your storage is in pretty bad shape, and xfs_repair can't make something out
of nothing.

Thanks anyways, I am trying with a "-L" repair, at this step I expect another fail (due out of memory or something, as it happened last time) then I will try with "xfs_repair -L -vv -P" and I expect to see that segfault again.
Will report next steps, maybe something interesting for you will pop up... for me is not a waste of time, since this last try is worth being made.
