Bug Description
Pack files are named according to the hash of their on-disk contents, ie "md5sum -b packs/*" checks them. This is very fast and will detect errors caused by disk corruption such as seems to have happened in bug 360476. This will be caught by the current check code but
1- it may take a while for enough of the check to run to read the relevant block of the file
2- the error may be unobvious, like "ShortReadv"
