--- Comment #2 from George Mitchell <george at chinilu.com> ---
Very interesting.  This is exactly the sort of corruptions I am seeing in my
journal data.  I have to systems running multiboot on the same hardware.  One
is a very basic Mageia 3 64bit system running on ext4.  It has zero problem
with journal corruptions.  The other is my main system, a 32bit Mageia 3 system
running on 64bit Intel hardware.  The file system is exclusively btrfs raid 1
configuration.  On this system I get a constant flow of corruptions that look
exactly like what Hussam is seeing.  The corruptions typically occur 89-95%
into the verify scan.  What is interesting is that I am not seeing any problem
with the actual logs, only with the verifies.  But I am finding that once these
corruptions accumulate to a certain point the journal logging system itself
dies.  I have had that happen once already and was only able to restore it by
cleaning out the old journal files.  Since I can't trust the journal on this
system, I am running rsyslog as a backup.
