[60631.481913] attempt to access beyond end of device [60631.481935] dm-1: rw=1073, want=42917896, limit=42917888 [60631.481941] btrfs_dev_stat_print_on_error: 34 callbacks suppressed [60631.481949] btrfs: bdev /dev/mapper/vmhost--vg-vmhost--rootfs errs: wr 311347, rd 0, flush 0, corrupt 0, gen 0 This is the problem. It looks like you've shrunk the LV without first shrinking the filesystem. Depending on how much you shrunk it by, the odds are fairly good that significant chunks of the FS are now toast.
