Thank you for this report, Sergey. Thank you, Nathan, for pointing out the
solution.
I also had an unclean shutdown on x86_64, and ran into the same oops when I
tried to mount my biggest partition on the trustworthy i386. I tried xfs_check,
which told me that I should mount the filesystem (which I couldn't), so my last
chance seemed to be xfs_repair.
After reading this report, I could mount the filesystem on x86_64 without a
problem. xfs_check was also happy, and so am I.
@Nathan: could this please be documented somewhere (or perhaps it is, and I just
didn't find it)? Maybe in the man page of xfs_check or xfs_repair, or maybe when
xfs_check says "please attempt a mount of the filesystem before doing this" it
could also say "and use the same architecture (i386 vs. x86_64) where you got
the unclean filesystem".
I would really hate to read this report _after_ using xfs_repair and probably
loosing a lot of data.
