This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nvme-core: check for too small lba shift to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nvme-core-check-for-too-small-lba-shift.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5f9b0a0e799278756282559a60b55f8088bc752e Author: Keith Busch <kbusch@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 28 09:36:04 2023 -0800 nvme-core: check for too small lba shift [ Upstream commit 74fbc88e161424b3b96a22b23a8e3e1edab9d05c ] The block layer doesn't support logical block sizes smaller than 512 bytes. The nvme spec doesn't support that small either, but the driver isn't checking to make sure the device responded with usable data. Failing to catch this will result in a kernel bug, either from a division by zero when stacking, or a zero length bio.
