There's a risk of filesystem corruption in case of system A later filesystem check does not show any errors. With 4.9.46 stable kernels I also sometimes get the following error: EXT4-fs error (device dm-25): ext4_iget:4501: inode #74061557: comm rsync: checksum invalid or EXT4-fs error (device dm-25): ext4_iget:4501: inode #155844677: comm nfsd: checksum invalid A filesystem check then says that the inode itselfs seems ok but the checksum is indeed wrong. As these inodes are inodes of very small files. So I finally copied all away and reinitialized the filesystem. But this time without -O inline_data Since then all works fine. So I assume there is a proplem with inodes and inline-data (at least until 4.9.46), maybe only with data=journal. Regards, -- Wolfgang Walter Studentenwerk München Anstalt des öffentlichen Rechts
