WRITE SAME corrupts data on the block device behind iblock if the command
is emulated. The emulation code issues (M - 1) * N times more bios than
requested, where M is the number of 512 blocks per real block size and N is
the NUMBER OF LOGICAL BLOCKS specified in WRITE SAME command. So, for a
device with 4k blocks, 7 * N more LBAs gets written after the requested
range.
The issue happens because the number of 512 byte sectors to be written is
decreased one by one while the real bios are typically from 1 to 8 512 byte
sectors per bio.

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.
