According to the (now closed) case, the root cause of entering the infinite loop was a corrupted filesystem, it seems. (The infinite loop is a bug, of course, but the reason we hit it appears to be corruption.) The number of free blocks was incorrect, and xfs_repair resolved the issue and allowed the filesystem to mount: Phase 1 - find and verify superblock... Phase 2 - using internal log - zero log... - scan filesystem freespace and inode maps... sb_fdblocks 53, counted 190920 - found root inode chunk Phase 3 - for each AG... I agree that the patch(es) suggested are reasonable to target for a RHEL update, but given that the customer case is resolved and the root cause appears to be a mildly corrupted filesystem, and where we are in the RHEL8.8 development cycle, we will target this for the next release. Thanks, -Eric Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
