[dm-devel] Adding target device caused an alignment inconsistency

[Bart Van Assche]

Hello,

With kernel 4.4.0 (openSuSE Tumbleweed) I see the following message 
appear systematically in the kernel log if udev reports a new path to 
multipathd:

[958779.753012] device-mapper: table: 254:0: adding target device sdg 
caused an alignment inconsistency: physical_block_size=4096, 
logical_block_size=512, alignment_offset=0, start=0

This did not happen with previous kernel versions. This causes the 
initiator to report the new paths as faulty until I run the following 
command:

echo reconfigure | multipathd -k

Is this a know issue?

Thanks,

Bart.
