This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled block: Discard page cache of zone reset target range to the 5.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: block-discard-page-cache-of-zone-reset-target-range.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From e5113505904ea1c1c0e1f92c1cfa91fbf4da1694 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shin'ichiro Kawasaki <shinichiro.kawasaki@xxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 11 Mar 2021 16:25:46 +0900 Subject: block: Discard page cache of zone reset target range From: Shin'ichiro Kawasaki <shinichiro.kawasaki@xxxxxxx> commit e5113505904ea1c1c0e1f92c1cfa91fbf4da1694 upstream. When zone reset ioctl and data read race for a same zone on zoned block devices, the data read leaves stale page cache even though the zone reset ioctl zero clears all the zone data on the device. To avoid non-zero data read from the stale page cache after zone reset, discard page cache of reset target zones in blkdev_zone_mgmt_ioctl(). Introduce the helper function blkdev_truncate_zone_range() to discard the page cache. Ensure the page cache discarded by calling the helper function before and after zone reset in same manner as fallocate does. This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.10.y. Rework is needed for older stable kernels.
