This can be easily reproduced using: echo "offline" > /sys/block/sda/device/state dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/thin bs=4K count=1 dmsetup suspend /dev/mapper/pool mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/thin dmsetup resume /dev/mapper/pool The root cause is maybe_resize_data_dev() will check fail_io and return error before called dm_resume. Fix this by adding FAIL mode check at the end of pool_preresume().
