Bug Description
Exists in Ununtu Edgy , kernel 2.6.17.10-generic and kernel 2.6.17.11-generic
Appears when using Areca ARC-1160 on Intel DP965LT motherboard with Intel Core2Duo 6400 CPU, verified on two identical machines.
Doesn't appear on the same version of software and the same raid card , running on Nforce2 based motherboard with Athlon XP CPU. Also doesn't appear when using build of the vanilla linux kernel 2.6.20:
mkfs.xfs /dev/<raid>
mount /dev/<raid> /mnt/raid
md5sum -b /somewhere/
cp <some_big_file> /mnt/raid/
cd /mnt/raid/
and md5sum -c /somewhere/else/md5 reports that the check is failed.
where some_big_file is an arbitrary file with the size around 1Gb or more.
However, if I format file system as EXT3 everything works as it should.
I see no errors or warnings in dmesg or syslog.
xfs_check also reports that everything is ok.
P.S. smaller files are randomly corrupted.
