I have a /home partition using luks on xfs
What openSUSE version are you using?
I've got two little files that barfed up errors while running a backup. Any attempt to access these files results in an error:

These also dumped the following into my log:
Oct 27 17:37:20 poulsbo.homeip.net kernel: XFS (dm-1): xfs_iread: validation failed for inode 537556822 failed Oct 27 17:37:20 poulsbo.homeip.net kernel: ffff8800a928fc00: 49 4e 81 80 03 02 00 00 00 00 03 e8 00 00 00 64 IN.............d ... Oct 27 17:37:21 poulsbo.homeip.net kernel: XFS (dm-1): Corruption detected. Unmount and run xfs_repair
So I did as directed, unmounted it and ran xfs_repair on the /dev/mapper/cr_yaddayadda device that represents the encrypted partition /dev/sda4.
Yes, correct. There is probably a new toolset in the filesystem repo, but I don't know what versiohn you are running.
(it is said to be pointless and dangerous to run xfs_repair on the actual underlying device. Is this true? Its still xfs underneath is it not? ).
Absolutely true. If you look at it appears as noise, not a filesystem.
After multiple such runs, no error is found by xfs_repair, and the problem is not repaired.
smartctl shows no errors and no sectors having been re-mapped. The drive appears physically fine.
So how do I proceed from here? I have two such little files that barf in the log each time I even try to peek at them.
Post for help at the XFS mailing list: X-Mailing-List: linux-xfs at vger.kernel.org vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-xfs But first, try a newer version of the repair tools. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
