Yes. The ZIO_FLAG_SCRUB instructs the raidz or mirror vdev to read

I could understand

No, for the on-disk sector allocation over M disks, zfs raidzN
Hello all,
I was describing how raidzN works recently, and got myself wondering:
does zpool scrub verify all the parity sectors and the mirror halves?
That is, IIRC, the scrub should try to read all allocated blocks and
if they are read in OK - fine; if not - fix in-place with redundant
data
I can only speak anecdotally, but I believe it does.
Watching zpool iostat it does read all data on both disks in a mirrored
pair.
Logically, it would not make sense not to verify all redundant data.
The point of a scrub is to ensure all data is correct.
