I'd really like for this bug to be fixed before 6.1 is released, so that there isn't a known bug in STATX_DIOALIGN already upon release.

[dm-devel] [PATCH 0/3] fix direct io errors on dm-crypt
From: Keith Busch The 6.0 kernel made some changes to the direct io interface to allow offsets in user addresses. This based on the hardware's capabilities reported in the request_queue's dma_alignment attribute. dm-crypt requires direct io be aligned to the block size. Since it was only ever using the default 511 dma mask, this requirement may fail if formatted to something larger, like 4k, which will result in unexpected behavior with direct-io. There are two parts to fixing this: First, the attribute needs to be moved to the queue_limit so that it can properly stack with device mappers. Second, dm-crypt provides its minimum required limit to match the logical block size.

Yeah, dm-integrity definitly needs it too. This is easy enough to use the same io_hint that I added for dm-crypt. dm-log-writes is doing some weird things with writes that I don't think would work with some low level drivers without the same alignment constraint. The other two appear to handle this fine, but I'll run everything through some focused test cases to be sure. In the meantime, do you want to see the remaining mappers fixed in a v2, or are you okay if they follow after this series? -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
Re: [dm-devel] [PATCH 0/3] fix direct io errors on dm-crypt
Hi The patchset seems OK - but dm-integrity also has a limitation that the bio vectors must be aligned on logical block size. dm-writecache and dm-verity seem to handle unaligned bioset, but you should check them anyway. I'm not sure about dm-log-writes.
