AI-suggested
A patch has been applied to the Linux kernel to address this issue. Users should update to a fixed kernel version containing the patch identified by commit 62dc37a819a5 or later. No additional mitigation is required beyond applying the official fix.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's device mapper I/O (dm-io) subsystem was resolved by changing how non-retryable errors are reported. Specifically, error codes BLK_STS_NOTSUPP and BLK_STS_INVAL, which should not cause failure on dm-raid1 legs, are now tracked separately from other errors. This fix prevents dm-raid1 from failing a leg due to these specific errors, addressing misbehavior when unaligned bio vectors are used.
