Abstract
Embodiments are directed to error resistant logging. A write-ahead log (WAL) for preserving a verifiable record of file system activity may be provided such that the WAL may include a sequence of log blocks that each may include a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) value of a next adjacent log block in the WAL. In response to executing a file system operation associated with payload data, further actions may be performed, including: generating log blocks based on the payload data; generating a log segment that includes the log blocks; modifying a portion of the contents of a head-block of the log segment such that the modified head-block of the log segment has a CRC value that matches a CRC value of a tail-block of the WAL; copying the contents of the modified head-block of the log segment into the tail-block of the WAL.
