I am using the latest XFS from CVS with kernel version 2.4.17. I'm
also using the rmap and preempt patches. Recently I had a kernel oops
when I was in single user mode, kdb reported it being at line 812 in
page_buf_io.c from the xfs source. When this happened several files
got hosed, including my /etc/fstab.
First, is this a known problem or is there something I can do to fix
it? Looking at the source there didn't appear to be a blatently
obvious fix. Second, is there some way to see which file were filled
with null bytes? Several applications are no longer able to run, it
appears that a few different libraries were also hosed. I'm not on the
list so please CC me if you have any answers. Thanks.

Did you edit some files with vi?
Yes? See FAQ
No? What were you busy with doing in single user mode? Did recovery take
place after a reboot or did the fs need fixing?

I use the last kind.
