EIO errors from the underlying storage might cause data corruption, but the only thing that can detect bad data is the application itself, not the kernel. > 2) data is still accessible but the content is changed. Again, data being incorrect is generally not a filesystem issue unless there's a bug somewhere in the filesystem IO path. You'll need to give us a *lot* more information about your storage and application workload if you think XFS is corrupting data.
