The high-level log recovery algorithm consists of two loops that walk the physical log and process log records from the tail to the head. The first loop handles the case where the tail is beyond the head and processes records up to the end of the physical log. The subsequent loop processes records from the beginning of the physical log to the head. Because log records can wrap around the end of the physical log, the first loop mentioned above must handle this case appropriately. Records are processed from in-core buffers, which means that this algorithm must split the reads of such records into two partial I/Os: 1.) from the beginning of the record to the end of the log and 2.) from the beginning of the log to the end of the record. This is further complicated by the fact that the log record header and log record data are read into independent buffers. The current handling of each buffer correctly splits the reads when either the header or data starts before the end of the log and wraps around the end. The data read does not correctly handle the case where the prior header read wrapped or ends on the physical log end boundary. blk_no is incremented to or beyond the log end after the header read to point to the record data, but the split data read logic triggers, attempts to read from an invalid log block and ultimately causes log recovery to fail. This can be reproduced fairly reliably via xfstests tests generic/047 and generic/388 with large iclog sizes (256k) and small (10M) logs. If the record header read has pushed beyond the end of the physical log, the subsequent data read is actually contiguous. Update the data read logic to detect the case where blk_no has wrapped, mod it against the log size to read from the correct address and issue one contiguous read for the log data buffer. The log record is processed as normal from the buffer(s), the loop exits after the current iteration and the subsequent loop picks up with the first new record after the start of the log.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
