Adding debian-hppa in the loop: Is this a known issue and
specific to hppa? (Since otherwise I would suppose there were
earlier reports from the more widely used archs).

XFS is possibly broken on Linux for any arch that has  virtually
indexed cache, including ARM and HPPA.

This is being discussed on linux-parisc, linux-fsdevel, and linux-arch[1]

Cheers,
Carlos.

A quick google for xlog_valid_rec_header suggests [1] that this is neither
a recent issue, nor specific to hppa. I'd suggest contacting the upstream
XFS devs on this.

The trace in the link looks very much alike, even though that's 2.6.27 and
on arm. It's also a Debian kernel though. I did not really check any of
the other hits and I also did not read the thread on this one.

Cheers,
FJP
