在 Linux 内核中，以下漏洞已得到修复： md：从 raid1/10/456 中移除 REQ_NOWAIT 支持 在内部可能阻塞的 md 个人化（personality）驱动中，REQ_NOWAIT 支持存在根本性的不完整问题。虽然读操作可以避免部分阻塞路径，但写请求仍可能遇到一种情况：一个镜像写成功，而另一个镜像返回 。此时，md 无法区分这是队列压力导致的临时性失败还是真实的设备故障，因此既不能记录坏块，也无法在不使用 REQ_NOWAIT 的情况下安全地重试写操作，从而导致各镜像之间的数据出现分歧。 与其

Vulnerability Title
md: remove REQ_NOWAIT support from raid1/10/456
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md: remove REQ_NOWAIT support from raid1/10/456
REQ_NOWAIT support in md personalities that can block internally is
fundamentally incomplete. While reads can avoid some blocking paths,
write requests can still encounter cases where one mirror succeeds while
another returns -EAGAIN. At that point md cannot distinguish queue
pressure from a real device failure, so it can neither record a bad
block nor safely retry the write without REQ_NOWAIT, leaving mirrors
with divergent data.
Rather than continue advertising REQ_NOWAIT support for personalities
that cannot implement it correctly, remove it from raid1, raid10 and
raid456. Keep REQ_NOWAIT for linear and raid0, which only remap bios to
their underlying devices; stacked limits will still clear the feature if
any component device lacks REQ_NOWAIT support.
