[PATCH] dm era: include the target offset when mapping writes
From: Samuel Moelius
Date: Mon Jun 08 2026 - 20:30:05 EST
dm-era tracks writes in target-relative blocks, but the mapping path can
ignore the target offset when translating bios. Tables with a non-zero
start sector can therefore map and account I/O against the wrong origin
sectors.
The result is inconsistent metadata for devices that are not mapped at
sector zero.
Apply the target offset consistently when mapping and tracking writes.
