That's a corrupted block list of some kind - it should junk the

I'm not sure why that happens. Is it exiting cleanly or crashing?
Can you take a metadump of the filesystem and provide it for someone
to debug the problems it causes repair?
It seems to be exiting cleanly with return code 1. I created a metadump, but it's 9.6GB. I suppose I can put up on a secure FTP or something like that, but it does seem a big large to shuffle around.
That marks the inode as "free" which effectively junks it and then

xfs_repair will free all it's extents next time it is run. Basically
you are removing the files from the filesystem and making them
unrecoverable.
In the case of directories, it blows away just directory but xfs_repair later on scans for orphan files, no? Or am I mistaken on how that works.
