Thanks for your responses!
fsdb really works.
The event sequence was as follows:
$sudo smartctl -t long /dev/ad6
$sudo smartctl -l selftest /dev/ad6
Num Test_Description Status Remaining ...
LBA_of_first_error
# 1 Extended offline Completed: read failure 90% 7376 ...
4007967
<SKIP>
$sudo bsdlabel ad6s1
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 1048576 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 8
b: 1048576 1048576 swap
c: 100663227 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't

d: 2097152 2097152 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
e: 655360 4194304 4.2BSD 2048 16384 40968
f: 37748736 4849664 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
g: 58064827 42598400 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
>From the above output one can conclude that bad sector
(LBA_of_first_error=4007967) lies in
the partition ad6s1d, which in my case is mounted to /var (from fstab)
Further:
$fsdb -r /dev/ad6s1d
Bad sector offset within /var is
LBA_of_first_error-62-offset_of_partition_d=
4007967-63-2097152=1910752
so, next step:
fsdb (inum: 2)> findblk 1910752
1910752: data block of inode 117934
fsdb (inum: 117934)> inode 117934
current inode: regular file
I=117934 MODE=100644 SIZE=53609
BTIME=Jul 1 20:10:54 2010 [0 nsec]
MTIME=Jul 1 20:10:54 2010 [0 nsec]
CTIME=Jul 1 20:10:54 2010 [0 nsec]
ATIME=Jul 10 00:33:55 2010 [0 nsec]
OWNER=root GRP=wheel LINKCNT=1 FLAGS=0 BLKCNT=6c GEN=8c5ac7e
fsdb (inum: 117934)>blocks
Blocks for inode 117934:
Direct blocks:
477680, 477688, 477696, 477848 (3 frags)
First fragment FSBlock (477688) when multiplied by 4
gives me exactly 1910752. i.e. LBA_of_first_error
(4 is fsbtodb param from the output of ffsinfo -l 1 /dev/ad6s1d)
Next I search for defect file:
$ sudo find /var -inum 117934
/var/db/pkg/kdeutils-3.5.10_5/+CONTENTS
And what's more:
when I try to upgrade some port or simply issue the command
$sudo pkgdb -uF
I get this error:
Input/Output error - /var/db/pkg/kdeutils-3.5.10_5/+CONTENTS
wich corresponds exactly with what was previousely
discovered by means of "smartctl", "fsdb" and "find".
Just one more question (maybe a bit stupid): if I try to remap bad sector(s)
in /var/db/pkg with, for instance,
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad6 bs=512 count=1 seek=1910752
can I cosequently safely restore pkgdb with pkgdb -uF?
TIA
