Subject: [PATCH] cifs/smb3: Fix data inconsistent when punch hole
When punch hole success, we also can read old data from file:
# strace -e trace=pread64,fallocate xfs_io -f -c "pread 20 40" \
-c "fpunch 20 40" -c"pread 20 40" file
pread64(3, " version 5.8.0-rc1+"..., 40, 20) = 40
fallocate(3, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE|FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE, 20, 40) = 0
pread64(3, " version 5.8.0-rc1+"..., 40, 20) = 40
CIFS implements the fallocate(FALLOCATE_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) with send SMB
ioctl(FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA) to server. It just set the range of the
remote file to zero, but local page caches not updated, then the
local page caches inconsistent with server.
Also can be found by xfstests generic/316.
So, we need to remove the page caches before send the SMB
ioctl(FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA) to server.
Fixes: 31742c5a33176 ("enable fallocate punch hole ("fallocate -p") for SMB3")
