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.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
