Unaligned or page-crossing DMA, including non-coherent cache-line effects and hardware address rounding, can read adjacent memory.\nI:H - The same unvalidated user vectors are programmed into device DMA and driver scatterlists; misaligned writes, hardware address masking, and cache-line tearing on non-coherent DMA can corrupt adjacent memory or neighboring disk blocks, and drivers that assume aligned bvecs can perform out-of-bounds writes.\nA:H - Misaligned bios are known to degrade md/raid1 and dm-mirror arrays when lower devices return BLK_STS_INVAL, hang dm-io on byte-granular fragments, and can oops or hang bio-based drivers and DMA engines that reject unaligned segments, all kernel-level availability failures."
