commit 97f433c3601a24d3513d06f575a389a2ca4e11e4 upstream. We get I/O errors when we run md-raid1 on the top of dm-integrity on the top of ramdisk. device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xff00, 0xff device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xff00, 0xff device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xffff, 0x1 device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xffff, 0x1 device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8048, 0xff device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8147, 0xff device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8246, 0xff device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8345, 0xbb The ramdisk device has logical_block_size 512 and max_sectors 255. The dm-integrity device uses logical_block_size 4096 and it doesn't affect the "max_sectors" value - thus, it inherits 255 from the ramdisk. So, we have a device with max_sectors not aligned on logical_block_size. The md-raid device sees that the underlying leg has max_sectors 255 and it will split the bios on 255-sector boundary, making the bios unaligned on logical_block_size. In order to fix the bug, we round down max_sectors to logical_block_size.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
