            Bug ID: 104571
           Summary: ext4_mb_generate_buddy block bitmap and bg descriptor
                    inconsistent
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.19.8-ckt4
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext4
          Assignee: fs_ext4@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: linux-ext4@freshdot.net
        Regression: No

This bug report is about ext4 metadata corruption on large (>=10TB) ext4
volumes.
This was also reported in 2014 [
http://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=139878494527370&w=2 ]

I'm getting sporadic FS errors like this one:
(More of these i've pasted at https://8n1.org/10745/cc34)

|  EXT4-fs error (device vdb): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:757:
|   group 79842, block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 10073 vs 10071
|   free clusters
| Aborting journal on device vdb-8.

An e2fsck run then shows:
| Pass 5: Checking group summary information
| Block bitmap differences:  +(2616281446--2616281447)
| Free blocks count wrong (170942497, counted=129906218).
| Free inodes count wrong (670863012, counted=670860975).

I've patched my kernel with WARN_ON(1); inserted in tactical places and caught
one such situation:

| EXT4-fs (vdb): ext4_writepages: jbd2_start: 9223372036854775751 pages, ino
84149503; err -30

After this, the system started logging a lot of this same message:
| EXT4-fs error (device vdb): ext4_find_extent:900: inode #84149503: comm
deluged: 
|    pblk 225181822 bad header/extent: invalid magic - magic 53fd, entries
37907,
|    max 27407(0), depth 50401(0)

Ran e2fsck and got:
| Pass 5: Checking group summary information
| Block bitmap differences:   +(1431556444--1431556445)
+(2469410748-2469410749)
| Free blocks count wrong (134030133, counted=57970467).
| Free inodes count wrong (670746893, counted=670746452).

Which is usually the same output for fsck in these situations.
