A gc-inode is a pseudo inode used to buffer the blocks to be moved by garbage collection. Block caches of gc-inodes must be cleared every time a garbage collection function (nilfs_clean_segments) completes. Otherwise, stale blocks buffered in the caches may be wrongly reused in successive calls of the GC function. For user files, this is not a problem because their gc-inodes are distinguished by a checkpoint number as well as an inode number. They never buffer different blocks if either an inode number, a checkpoint number, or a block offset differs. However, gc-inodes of sufile, cpfile and DAT file can store different data for the same block offset. Thus, the nilfs_clean_segments function can move incorrect block for these meta-data files if an old block is cached. I found this is really causing meta-data corruption in nilfs. This fixes the issue by ensuring cache clear of gc-inodes and resolves reported GC problems including checkpoint file corruption, b-tree corruption, and the following warning during GC. nilfs_palloc_freev: entry number 307234 already freed. ...
