Hello,this all about fs corruptions. fsck is needed.
Today I discovered this in my syslogs, after something strange
happening to XFree86 (hung at startup, then dumped me back to the
console)
is_leaf: free space seems wrong: level=1, nr_items=41, free_space=65224
rdkey vs-5150: search_by_key: invalid format found in block 283191. Fsck?

No, we return EIO in many places if some data corruption is found even if the hardware has worked ok. A stat data has not been found
here and EIO is returned.
