71644dff48 f2fs: add block_age-based extent cache
This patch introduces a runtime hot/cold data separation method
for f2fs, in order to improve the accuracy for data temperature
classification, reduce the garbage collection overhead after
long-term data updates.

Enhanced hot/cold data separation can record data block update
frequency as "age" of the extent per inode, and take use of the age
info to indicate better temperature type for data block allocation:
 - It records total data blocks allocated since mount;
 - When file extent has been updated, it calculate the count of data
blocks allocated since last update as the age of the extent;
 - Before the data block allocated, it searches for the age info and
chooses the suitable segment for allocation.

Test and result:
 - Prepare: create about 30000 files
  * 3% for cold files (with cold file extension like .apk, from 3M to 10M)
  * 50% for warm files (with random file extension like .FcDxq, from 1K
to 4M)
  * 47% for hot files (with hot file extension like .db, from 1K to 256K)
 - create(5%)/random update(90%)/delete(5%) the files
  * total write amount is about 70G
  * fsync will be called for .db files, and buffered write will be used
for other files

The storage of test device is large enough(128G) so that it will not
switch to SSR mode during the test.

Benefit: dirty segment count increment reduce about 14%
 - before: Dirty +21110
 - after:  Dirty +18286

3db1de0e58 f2fs: change the current atomic write way
Current atomic write has three major issues like below.
 - keeps the updates in non-reclaimable memory space and they are even
   hard to be migrated, which is not good for contiguous memory
   allocation.
 - disk spaces used for atomic files cannot be garbage collected, so
   this makes it difficult for the filesystem to be defragmented.
 - If atomic write operations hit the threshold of either memory usage
   or garbage collection failure count, All the atomic write operations
   will fail immediately.

To resolve the issues, I will keep a COW inode internally for all the
updates to be flushed from memory, when we need to flush them out in a
situation like high memory pressure. These COW inodes will be tagged
as orphan inodes to be reclaimed in case of sudden power-cut or system
failure during atomic writes.

859fca6b70 f2fs: swap: support migrating swapfile in aligned write mode
This patch supports to migrate swapfile in aligned write mode during
swapon in order to keep swapfile being aligned to section as much as
possible, then pinned swapfile will locates fully filled section which
may not affected by GC.

However, for the case that swapfile's size is not aligned to section
size, it will still leave last extent in file's tail as unaligned due
to its size is smaller than section size, like case #2.

b763f3bedc f2fs: restructure f2fs page.private layout
Restruct f2fs page private layout for below reasons:

There are some cases that f2fs wants to set a flag in a page to
indicate a specified status of page:
a) page is in transaction list for atomic write
b) page contains dummy data for aligned write
c) page is migrating for GC
d) page contains inline data for inline inode flush
e) page belongs to merkle tree, and is verified for fsverity
f) page is dirty and has filesystem/inode reference count for writeback
g) page is temporary and has decompress io context reference for compression

There are existed places in page structure we can use to store
f2fs private status/data:
- page.flags: PG_checked, PG_private
- page.private

However it was a mess when we using them, which may cause potential
confliction:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		-1		set				+1
b)		-2		set
c), d), e)					set
f)		0		set				+1
g)		pointer		set

The other problem is page.flags has no free slot, if we can avoid set
zero to page.private and set PG_private flag, then we use non-zero value
to indicate PG_private status, so that we may have chance to reclaim
PG_private slot for other usage. [1]

The other concern is f2fs has bad scalability in aspect of indicating
more page status.

So in this patch, let's restructure f2fs' page.private as below to
solve above issues:

Layout A: lowest bit should be 1
| bit0 = 1 | bit1 | bit2 | ... | bit MAX | private data .... |
 bit 0	PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER
 bit 1	PAGE_PRIVATE_ATOMIC_WRITE
 bit 2	PAGE_PRIVATE_DUMMY_WRITE
 bit 3	PAGE_PRIVATE_ONGOING_MIGRATION
 bit 4	PAGE_PRIVATE_INLINE_INODE
 bit 5	PAGE_PRIVATE_REF_RESOURCE
 bit 6-	f2fs private data

Layout B: lowest bit should be 0
 page.private is a wrapped pointer.

After the change:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		11		set				+1
b)		101		set				+1
c)		1001		set				+1
d)		10001		set				+1
e)						set
f)		100001		set				+1
g)		pointer		set				+1

d260081ccf f2fs: change recovery policy of xattr node block
Currently, if we call fsync after updating the xattr date belongs to the
file, f2fs needs to trigger checkpoint to keep xattr data consistent. But,
this policy cause low performance as checkpoint will block most foreground
operations and cause unneeded and unrelated IOs around checkpoint.

This patch will reuse regular file recovery policy for xattr node block,
so, we change to write xattr node block tagged with fsync flag to warm
area instead of cold area, and during recovery, we search warm node chain
for fsynced xattr block, and do the recovery.

So, for below application IO pattern, performance can be improved
obviously:
- touch file
- create/update/delete xattr entry in file
- fsync file

intensively by multithreads.

This patch splits free nid list to two list: {free,alloc}_nid_list, to
keep free nids and preallocated free nids separately, after that, traverse
latency will be gone, besides split nid_cnt for separate statistic.

Additionally, introduce __insert_nid_to_list and __remove_nid_from_list for

In order to avoid same garbage cp_version, we needed to truncate the next

If we can distinguish this by using crc in addition to cp_version, we can
remove this overhead.

There is backward compatibility concern where it changes node_footer layout.
So, this patch introduces a new checkpoint flag, CP_CRC_RECOVERY_FLAG, to

And, let's keep some free nids as much as possible.

fec1d6576c f2fs: use wait_for_stable_page to avoid contention
In write_begin, if storage supports stable_page, we don't need to wait for
writeback to update its contents.
This patch introduces to use wait_for_stable_page instead of
wait_on_page_writeback.

2049d4fcb0 f2fs: avoid multiple node page writes due to inline_data
The sceanrio is:
1. create fully node blocks
2. flush node blocks
3. write inline_data for all the node blocks again
4. flush node blocks redundantly

So, this patch tries to flush inline_data when flushing node blocks.

2304cb0c44 f2fs: export dirty_nats_ratio in sysfs
This patch exports a new sysfs entry 'dirty_nat_ratio' to control threshold
of dirty nat entries, if current ratio exceeds configured threshold,
checkpoint will be triggered in f2fs_balance_fs_bg for flushing dirty nats.

7d768d2c26 f2fs: flush dirty nat entries when exceeding threshold
When testing f2fs with xfstest, generic/251 is stuck for long time,
the case uses below serials to obtain fresh released space in device,
in order to prepare for following fstrim test.

1. rm -rf /mnt/dir
2. mkdir /mnt/dir/
3. cp -axT `pwd`/ /mnt/dir/
4. goto 1

During preparing step, all nat entries will be cached in nat cache,
most of them are dirty entries with invalid blkaddr, which means
nodes related to these entries have been truncated, and they could
be reused after the dirty entries been checkpointed.

However, there was no checkpoint been triggered, so nid allocators
(e.g. mkdir, creat) will run into long journey of iterating all NAT
pages, looking for free nids in alloc_nid->build_free_nids.

Here, in f2fs_balance_fs_bg we give another chance to do checkpoint
to flush nat entries for reusing them in free nid cache when dirty
entry count exceeds 10% of max count.

ea1a29a0bd f2fs: export ra_nid_pages to sysfs
After finishing building free nid cache, we will try to readahead
asynchronously 4 more pages for the next reloading, the count of
readahead nid pages is fixed.

In some case, like SMR drive, read less sectors with fixed count
each time we trigger RA may be low efficient, since we will face
high seeking overhead, so we'd better let user to configure this
parameter from sysfs in specific workload.

The periodic checkpoint can resolve the previous issue.
So, now we can use this again to improve the reported performance regression:

90b803e6fb f2fs: do not skip dentry block writes
Previously, we skip dentry block writes when wbc is SYNC_NONE with no memory
pressure and the number of dirty pages is pretty small.

But, we didn't skip for normal data writes, which gives us not much big impact
on overall performance.
Moreover, by skipping some data writes, kworker falls into infinite loop to try
to write blocks, when many dir inodes have only one dentry block.

So, this patch removes skipping data writes.

13054c548a f2fs: introduce infra macro and data structure of rb-tree extent cache
Introduce infra macro and data structure for rb-tree based extent cache:

Macros:
 * EXT_TREE_VEC_SIZE: indicate vector size for gang lookup in extent tree.
 * F2FS_MIN_EXTENT_LEN: indicate minimum length of extent managed in cache.
 * EXTENT_CACHE_SHRINK_NUMBER: indicate number of extent in cache will be shrunk.

Basic data structures for extent cache:
 * struct extent_tree: extent tree entry per inode.
 * struct extent_node: extent info node linked in extent tree.

Besides, adding new extent cache related fields in f2fs_sb_info.
