iomap_file_buffered_write_punch_delalloc() currently invalidates the page cache over the unused range of the delalloc extent that was allocated. While the write allocated the delalloc extent, it does not own it exclusively as the write does not hold any locks that prevent either writeback or mmap page faults from changing the state of either the page cache or the extent state backing this range. Whilst xfs_bmap_punch_delalloc_range() already handles races in extent conversion - it will only punch out delalloc extents and it ignores any other type of extent - the page cache truncate does not discriminate between data written by this write or some other task. As a result, truncating the page cache can result in data corruption if the write races with mmap modifications to the file over the same range. generic/346 exercises this workload, and if we randomly fail writes (as will happen when iomap gets stale iomap detection later in the patchset), it will randomly corrupt the file data because it removes data written by mmap() in the same page as the write() that failed. Hence we do not want to punch out the page cache over the range of the extent we failed to write to - what we actually need to do is detect the ranges that have dirty data in cache over them and *not punch them out*. To do this, we have to walk the page cache over the range of the delalloc extent we want to remove. This is made complex by the fact we have to handle partially up-to-date folios correctly and this can happen even when the FSB size == PAGE_SIZE because we now support multi-page folios in the page cache. Because we are only interested in discovering the edges of data ranges in the page cache (i.e. hole-data boundaries) we can make use of mapping_seek_hole_data() to find those transitions in the page cache. As we hold the invalidate_lock, we know that the boundaries are not going to change while we walk the range. This interface is also byte-based and is sub-page block aware, so we can find the data ranges in the cache based on byte offsets rather than page, folio or fs block sized chunks. This greatly simplifies the logic of finding dirty cached ranges in the page cache. Once we've identified a range that contains cached data, we can then iterate the range folio by folio. This allows us to determine if the data is dirty and hence perform the correct delalloc extent punching operations. The seek interface we use to iterate data ranges will give us sub-folio start/end granularity, so we may end up looking up the same folio multiple times as the seek interface iterates across each discontiguous data region in the folio.
