I still have this issue, though the delay before boot is much shorter now (~1 minute).

I have run xfs_dump, but the result is 2.3GB.

I have not had a chance to apply the patch yet, I will report if I do.

Do you still have this issue on your XFS filesystem? If so, please use xfs_metadump (when the filesystem is not mounted) to save a copy for developers to debug this issue.

Can you build GRUB from current master and with this patch?

If the issue persists, please write to the grub-devel mailinglist and CC to Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>, Anthony Iliopoulos via Grub-devel <grub-devel@gnu.org>, and Jon DeVree <nuxi@vault24.org>.

My system has started to take a long time between selecting a grub entry and starting to boot (several minutes), and before it boots I see "error: not a correct XFS inode" repeated many times. I've run a successful xfs_repair on the filesystem, but this has not affected this behaviour. The system behaves fine once booted.

This is an MBR system with /boot on an XFS filesystem.

Grub version: 2.12
OS: NixOS unstable
Architecture: x86_64
