[Kirk, I'm cc'ing you because here the dirhash code sanity checks
found a directory entry with d_ino == 0 that was not at the start
of a DIRBLKSIZ block. This doesn't happen normally, but it seems
from this report that fsck does not correct this. Is it a basic
filesystem assumption that d_ino == 0 can only happen at the start
of a directory block, or is it something the code should tolerate?]
Interesting - this is an error reported by the UFS_DIRHASH code
that you enabled in your kernel config. A sanity check that the
dirhash code is performing is failing. These checks are designed
to catch bugs in the dirhash code, but in this case I think it may
be a bug that fsck is not finding this problem, or else my sanity
tests are too strict.
A workaround is to turn off the sanity checks with:
sysctl vfs.ufs.dirhash_docheck=0
or to remove UFS_DIRHASH from your kernel config. You could also
try to find the directory that is causing the problems. Copy the
following script to a file called dircheck.pl, and try running:
chmod 755 dircheck.pl
find / -fstype ufs -type d -print0 | xargs ./dircheck.pl
That should show up any directories that would fail that dirhash
sanity check - there will probably just be one or two that resulted
from some old filesystem corruption.
