Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Hello

My Arch is fully updated. Arch runs fsck before almost every boot.
dmesg log prints these errors:

[sáb nov 30 15:05:24 2024] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_ext_check_inode:524: inode #2770363: comm ThreadPoolForeg: pblk 0 bad header/extent: invalid extent entries - magic f30a, entries 1, max 4(4), depth 0(0)

I use the default kernel:

$ uname -a
Linux Arch-PC 6.12.1-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri, 22 Nov 2024 16:04:27 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any idea on what is the problem, and how to fix it?

Thanks for reading.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Unclean shutdown, the FS doesn't get synced or closed.
If you're not habitually shutting down the system by pressing the power button until it turns off, please post your complete system journal for the previous to such boot, eg. 

sudo journalctl -b -1 | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

if the current boot had this.

(If you *are* habitually shutting down the system by pressing the power button until it turns off, stop doing that)

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

LOL
I only use the power button when there is no alternative and thus I'm forced to do it.
I have just noticed that the errors appear in the kernel log immediately after opening my internet browser (Vivaldi).

The requested log:
http://0x0.st/XRD_.txt

Edit:
Well, even opening the /home/myuser/.config/vivaldi folder with my file manager produces an "EXT4-fs error..." message in the kernel log, and then Arch runs fsck in the next boot. What a bizarre thing.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Did you repartition the disk?
Is the filesystem bigger than the partition?

My ssd has 3 partitions.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

That doesn't really answer the question, though. Add

df -h

Also manually running fsck on the device (must not be mounted, so in doubt has to happen when booting a live system or, I guess, sda3) would complain about that.

Ceterum censeo: 3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Size is ok, ftr. 350G ./. 370G is probably just the 2^10/10^3 factor.

So

ARCH: Inode 2770363, i_size is 17592186044416, should be 17592186044416.  FIXED.

is

[dom dez  1 07:48:29 2024] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_ext_check_inode:524: inode #2770363: comm ThreadPoolForeg: pblk 0 bad header/extent: invalid extent entries - magic f30a, entries 1, max 4(4), depth 0(0)

Begging the question: if that was fixed, why is it acting up again? Also it's always the exact same inode.

But take this one at a time, don't rush through the various steps and let's first see the smart data.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

There're a bunch of "unkonwn" parameters that *might* be concerning (but we don't know what they actually indicate…)
=> Run a long test, you can do that in the background while the system is operating and check in once in a while.
When it's done, re-check the smart data (post it, there might either have been an error or movement in one or some of the "unknown" attributes)

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

"Long" test only takes 2 minutes, according to smartctl.

Output after the "long" test:

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Only change is in

  9 Power_On_Hours          0x0012   100   100   000    Old_age   Always       -       4120

which is probably all uptime related.

Look for the affected block(s)

filefrag -v /home/stalker/.config/vivaldi/Default/DIPS-journal

and then try to rewrite it w/ hdparm, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Identi … _bad_block

Sanity check:

du -h /home/stalker/.config/vivaldi/Default/DIPS-journal

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

The affected block is not reported (I have renamed "vivaldi" folder to "vivaldi.old2"):

$ filefrag -v /home/stalker/.config/vivaldi.old2/Default/DIPS-journal
open: Structure needs cleaning

Edit:
Weird output of "DIPS-journal" in "ls -l":

$ ls -l /home/stalker/.config/vivaldi.old2/Default/
ls: cannot access '/home/stalker/.config/vivaldi.old2/Default/DIPS-journal': Structure needs cleaning

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Details in Vivaldi forum:

@Strangiato so to sum up (as I interpret) the debugfs output:

the file spans 8 blocks (4kB → minimal EXT4 block size)
it (also!) has a size of 16TiB and
its first (and only!) extent starts at (ext4-file-)block offset 4294967295.
Not sure what the original error was but I think:

somthing™ in file system internals wrote uint32 (-1) to the EXTENTS list
an inconsistency was detected (somehow), the file system was marked dirty
e2fsck "discovers" this (invalid!) block in the EXTENTS list
and "fixes" the file size based on that new "information"
→ (last_block + 1) * block_size
→ (4294967295 + 1) * 4096
→ 17592186044416
You could save this thing for posterity.
Or to have a good example in which error condition the fixup approach in e2fsck definitely behaves pathologically at the moment.

But I think more interesting would be which part of ext4 driver code was responsible for this (alleged) -1 to end up in the f***ing EXTENDS list. ?

For you personally:
I have no idea if the state of block 84024050 is correct at the moment.
Or if it is even a valid position on your partition.
If not, this may be to origin of the whole issue:
EXT4 may consider /dev/sda1 larger than it actually is according to file system table.
And there was an (uncaught) error when trying to write past the end of the device.

So no idea what could go wrong when you try to get rid of the file using debugfs operations. ?

Something extremely weird happened to my ext4 file system.

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

My money was on the smart data, but it looks ok.

* Do you apply an overly aggressive trimming strategy?
* Does the drive fail at times, maybe because of https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … Management (many drives default to med_power_with_dipmsince a couple of kernel versions, but probably should not)
* Are there firmware updates for the drive available?

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

trimming is set with "discard" parameter in /etc/fstab

$ cat /etc/fstab
# /dev/sda1 LABEL=ARCH
UUID=4c1b8d88-ae03-4daa-9733-103cfeffdd81       /               ext4            rw,relatime,discard     0 1

#LABEL=WIN10 /mnt/WIN10 ntfs-3g nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,uid=1003,x-systemd.required-by=smb.service 0 0

The drive is 1 year old, it has never failed so far.

My SATA Active Link Power Management settings:

$ grep . /sys/class/scsi_host/host*/link_power_management_policy
/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy:med_power_with_dipm
/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/link_power_management_policy:med_power_with_dipm
/sys/class/scsi_host/host2/link_power_management_policy:med_power_with_dipm
/sys/class/scsi_host/host3/link_power_management_policy:med_power_with_dipm

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Try "medium_power" and consider https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Solid_ … iodic_TRIM but that's of course guesswork - it's hard to tell what corrupted the filesystem, but likely a lower layer (ie. issues w/ the drive)
Maybe your older journal show issues reg. sda 

sudo journalctl -g sda

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Previously I forgot to say that there is no firmware update for this drive.

Probably this bug was caused by a power outage. I'm not sure though.

The output of your command:
https://0x0.st/X7sQ.txt

OK, now I have replaced the "discard" parameter in /etc/fstab with fstrim.timer.

And I have set "medium_power":

$ grep . /sys/class/scsi_host/host*/link_power_management_policy
/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy:medium_power
/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/link_power_management_policy:medium_power
/sys/class/scsi_host/host2/link_power_management_policy:medium_power
/sys/class/scsi_host/host3/link_power_management_policy:medium_power
/sys/class/scsi_host/host4/link_power_management_policy:medium_power
/sys/class/scsi_host/host5/link_power_management_policy:medium_power

Re: Arch runs fsck before almost every boot

Journl only goes 5 days back and is full of the known error, but if there was a power outage this might indeed just be it.
