Cifs has a following race between hole punching and page fault: CPU1 CPU2 smb3_fallocate() smb3_punch_hole() truncate_pagecache_range() filemap_fault() - loads old data into the page cache SMB2_ioctl(..., FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA, ...) And now we have stale data in the page cache. Fix the problem by locking out faults (as well as reads) using mapping->invalidate_lock while hole punch is running.
