fsck_apfs check error

Just after upgrading to High Sierra for few days and running with APFS auto-conversion

I had 2 kernel-panics (almost forgotten that those exists...) and now I got this:

-bash-3.2# fsck_apfs /dev/rdisk2s2

** Checking volume.
** Checking the container superblock.

** Checking the EFI jumpstart record.

** Checking the space manager.

** Checking the object map.

** Checking the APFS volume superblock.

** Checking the object map.

** Checking the fsroot tree.

error: drec_val object (oid 0x76ed006): invalid type (0)

fsroot tree is invalid.

** The volume /dev/rdisk2s2 could not be verified completely.


I don't have a clue what "error: drec_val object XXX invalid type (0)" means.

So what Do I do now? Pray to the gods of internet since APFS sources aren't released,

there is no documentation and now what? I can go and reformat my drive because

that the base fs can't be repaired? Really?

I'm seriously amazed at the quality and implementation of such major change as APFS.

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13), null
