corruption in xfs_end_bio_unwritten

Hi all,

I am seeing data corruption in xfs_end_bio_unwritten. Possibly the corruption is happening before. Here is what I see.

The ioend->io_offset and ioend->io_size is completely beyond the range of the size of the file or the device altogether. The problem occurs under heavy I/O stress on 4 20GB files that was created using XFS_IOC_RESVSP64 ioctl. For a sparse file of the same size the problem does not occur. Also the problem is not seen on moderate the low system I/O loads(Created by I/O meter)

It trips on the VOP_BMP(..) call that eventually calls xfs_btree_check_lblock. I am aware that this function has changed in the tip to call xfs_iomap_write_unwritten directly instead of calling xfs_iomap via VOP_BMAP. I believe that even if I change the code to what is in the tip I would still stumble some where on the fact that a write to a undefined range was completed. The call stack that was dumped by XFS_ERROR_REPORT was as follows

Any thoughts how I could fix this?

Thanks in advance

Ravi

what kernel, for starters?

2.6.16 + XFS from SLES10 I hear... :)

So for starters, I'd bug SuSE....

otherwise I'd see if it persists upstream.

Is AIO+DIO in the mix? perhaps it is related to

Yeah, VOP_BMAP doesn't sound like anything recent ;-)
