Hi, I'm assuming all user space code is expected to use the handle_errors feature, so this isn't that big of a deal. I'm also using 4.19.13, which I think is more recent than the latest update to dm-raid1.c
That said, there may be a bug that causes the entire mirror to crash if there is an error on the first leg of the mirror, but not on the 2nd leg. Works fine if you do cause IO errors on the 2nd leg: root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup create zerodev --table "0 1073741824 zero" root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup create errordev --table "0 1073741824 error" root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup create mirror-table --table "0 1073741824 mirror core 2 524288 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/zerodev 0 /dev/mapper/errordev 0 0" root@kernel-dev:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mirror-table bs=512 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 512 bytes copied, 0.000417845 s, 1.2 MB/s root@kernel-dev:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mirror-table bs=512 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 512 bytes copied, 0.00036228 s, 1.4 MB/s root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup status mirror-table 0 1073741824 mirror 2 253:1 253:2 2047/2048 1 AD 1 core root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup remove mirror-table The whole mirror fails if you do the error device on the first leg: root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup create mirror-table --table "0 1073741824 mirror core 2 524288 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/errordev 0 /dev/mapper/zerodev 0 0" root@kernel-dev:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mirror-table bs=512 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 512 bytes copied, 0.000274188 s, 1.9 MB/s root@kernel-dev:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mirror-table bs=512 count=1 dd: error writing '/dev/mapper/mirror-table': Input/output error 1+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes copied, 0.000857634 s, 0.0 kB/s root@kernel-dev:~# dmsetup status mirror-table 0 1073741824 mirror 2 253:2 253:1 2047/2048 1 DA 1 core dmesg would be: [ 1935.876401] device-mapper: raid1: Mirror read failed from 253:2.
