I was also able to trigger corruptions on XFS (one run out of two), so it
is unlikely I'm seeing bugs in the ext3 replay or logging code.
Just to clarify,
was this test with barriers on or off for XFS?
I'm wondering if it was with barriers on, then we have a reproducible
bug in log replay.
Or whether you were just confirming the problems with barriers off on
another filesystem.
Barriers were off on xfs, the corruptions were not xfs' fault.
