After upgrade from kernel 5.10 to 5.14 and now to 5.15.3. There are errors increased in smart after every boot in Samsung 970 Evo nvme disk (and most likely others Samsung's nvmes) like this one:

Error Information Log Entries: 41 <- increased after every boot

nvme error-log /dev/nvme0:

status_field    : 0x4004(INVALID_FIELD: A reserved coded value or an unsupported value in a defined field)

Does someone know if this is a bug ? or maybe kernel try to talk to nvme disk in non supported (by a disk) way ? or maybe there is a need for some kind of exclude samsung disks from this kind of communication ?

Is there any kernel boot parameter solving this behavior ? It is worth to mention this issue is not present in 5.10 kernel.


There is a bug report filled 27 Sep 2021: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=995161 but seems like nothing has changed since then.

  • For my Samsung 860 and 870 QVO SSDs, I had to disable NCQ (see this) - no idea if this is related to your problem, but it might give you a clue ... Dec 1, 2021 at 2:21
  • @MurrayJensen thanks for your suggestion but I don't think it is relevant - there is noting about 0x4004 error.

    @Alexander There is one message but I think it is not related: nvme0: missing or invalid SUBNQN field because it was with 5.10 kernel and before not causing question error. Apart from that, there are no more suspicious messages
