Subject: [PATCH 3/5] smb: client: discard post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via zero range
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 12:49:55 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260921154957.903891-3-pc@manguebit.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260921154957.903891-1-pc@manguebit.org>

smb3_zero_range() removed the pagecache only for the range being zeroed,
so when it extends the file the folio straddling the old EOF - which may
hold data dirtied past EOF through an mmap - was never dropped and became
visible as file content once the file was extended.

Lower the discard boundary to the smaller of the zero-range offset and the
old EOF.

Fixes: 72c419d9b073 ("cifs: fix smb3_zero_range so it can expand the file-size when required")
