After a server crash we've encountered a corrupt xfs filesystem. When
trying to mount said filesystem normally the system hangs.
This was initially on a ubuntu trusty server with 3.13 kernel with
xfsprogs 3.1.9

We've installed a newer kernel (4.4.0-92) and compiled xfsprogs v
4.12.0 from source. We're still not able to mount the filesystem (and
replay the log) normally.
We are able to mount it -o ro,norecovery, but we're reluctant to do
xfs_repair -L without trying everything we can first. The filesystem
is browsable albeit a few paths which gives an error : "Structure
needs cleaning"

Does anyone have any advice as to how we might recover/repair the
corrupt log so we can replay it? Or is xfs_repair -L the only way
forward?
Can you try xfs_repair -n (only scans the fs and reports what repairs
would be made)?
An xfs_metadump of the fs might be useful as well. Then we can see if we
can reproduce the mount hang on latest kernels and if so, potentially
try and root cause it.

Here is a link for the metadump :

This points to a 29GB image file, apparently uncompressed..? Could you
upload a compressed file? Thanks.
Hi. Sorry about that. Didnt realize the output would be compressable.
Here is a link to the compressed tgz (6G)

Hi
Did you have a chance to look at the log/metadump ?
