commitff0c129d3bupstream. bio_sectors() returns the value in the units of 512-byte sectors (no matter what the real sector size of the device). dm-crypt multiplies bio_sectors() by on_disk_tag_size to calculate the space allocated for integrity tags. If dm-crypt is running with sector size larger than 512b, it allocates more data than is needed. Device Mapper trims the extra space when passing the bio to dm-integrity, so this bug didn't result in any visible misbehavior. But it must be fixed to avoid wasteful memory allocation for the block integrity payload.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
