In this round, we've tried to address some performance issues in f2fs_checkpoint

Enhancement:
- use iomap for direct IO
- try to avoid lock contention to improve f2fs_ckpt speed
- avoid unnecessary memory allocation in compression flow
- POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED drops the page cache containing compression pages
- add some sysfs entries (gc_urgent_high_remaining, pending_discard)

Various places in the kernel - largely in filesystems - respond to a
memory allocation failure by looping around and re-trying. Some of
these cannot conveniently use __GFP_NOFAIL, for reasons such as:
- a GFP_ATOMIC allocation, which __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't work on
- a need to check for the process being signalled between failures
- the possibility that other recovery actions could be performed
- the allocation is quite deep in support code, and passing down an
extra flag to say if __GFP_NOFAIL is wanted would be clumsy.
Many of these currently use congestion_wait() which (in almost all
cases) simply waits the given timeout - congestion isn't tracked for
most devices.
It isn't clear what the best delay is for loops, but it is clear that
the various filesystems shouldn't be responsible for choosing a timeout.
This patch introduces memalloc_retry_wait() with takes on that
responsibility. Code that wants to retry a memory allocation can call
this function passing the GFP flags that were used. It will wait
however is appropriate.
For now, it only considers __GFP_NORETRY and whatever
gfpflags_allow_blocking() tests. If blocking is allowed without
__GFP_NORETRY, then alloc_page either made some reclaim progress, or
waited for a while, before failing. So there is no need for much
further waiting. memalloc_retry_wait() will wait until the current
jiffie ends. If this condition is not met, then alloc_page() won't have
waited much if at all. In that case memalloc_retry_wait() waits about
200ms. This is the delay that most current loops uses.
linux/sched/mm.h needs to be included in some files now,
but linux/backing-dev.h does not.

The root cause here is, with IO alignment feature enables, in worst
case, we need F2FS_IO_SIZE() free blocks space for single one 4k write
due to IO alignment feature will fill dummy pages to make IO being
aligned.
So we will easily run out of free segments during non-inline directory's
data writeback, even in process of foreground GC.
In order to fix this issue, I just propose to reserve additional free
space for IO alignment feature to handle worst case of free space usage
ratio during FGGC.

This PR includes 5 commits that update the zstd library version:
1. Adds a new kernel-style wrapper around zstd. This wrapper API
is functionally equivalent to the subset of the current zstd API that is
currently used. The wrapper API changes to be kernel style so that the symbols
don't collide with zstd's symbols. The update to zstd-1.4.10 maintains the same
API and preserves the semantics, so that none of the callers need to be
updated. All callers are updated in the commit, because there are zero
functional changes.
2. Adds an indirection for `lib/decompress_unzstd.c` so it
doesn't depend on the layout of `lib/zstd/` to include every source file.
This allows the next patch to be automatically generated.
3. Imports the zstd-1.4.10 source code. This commit is automatically generated
from upstream zstd (https://github.com/facebook/zstd).
4. Adds me (terrelln@fb.com) as the maintainer of `lib/zstd`.
5. Fixes a newly added build warning for clang.
The discussion around this patchset has been pretty long, so I've included a
FAQ-style summary of the history of the patchset, and why we are taking this
approach.
Why do we need to update?
-------------------------
The zstd version in the kernel is based off of zstd-1.3.1, which is was released
August 20, 2017. Since then zstd has seen many bug fixes and performance
improvements. And, importantly, upstream zstd is continuously fuzzed by OSS-Fuzz,
and bug fixes aren't backported to older versions. So the only way to sanely get
these fixes is to keep up to date with upstream zstd. There are no known security
issues that affect the kernel, but we need to be able to update in case there
are. And while there are no known security issues, there are relevant bug fixes.
For example the problem with large kernel decompression has been fixed upstream
for over 2 years https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/9/29/27.
Additionally the performance improvements for kernel use cases are significant.
Measured for x86_64 on my Intel i9-9900k @ 3.6 GHz:
- BtrFS zstd compression at levels 1 and 3 is 5% faster
- BtrFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- F2FS zstd compression+write at level 3 is 8% faster
- F2FS zstd decompression+read is 20% faster
- ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster
- Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster
- Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster
On top of this, there are significant performance improvements coming down the
line in the next zstd release, and the new automated update patch generation
will allow us to pull them easily.
How is the update patch generated?
----------------------------------
The first two patches are preparation for updating the zstd version. Then the
3rd patch in the series imports upstream zstd into the kernel. This patch is
automatically generated from upstream. A script makes the necessary changes and
imports it into the kernel. The changes are:
- Replace all libc dependencies with kernel replacements and rewrite includes.
- Remove unncessary portability macros like: #if defined(_MSC_VER).
- Use the kernel xxhash instead of bundling it.
This automation gets tested every commit by upstream's continuous integration.
When we cut a new zstd release, we will submit a patch to the kernel to update
the zstd version in the kernel.
The automated process makes it easy to keep the kernel version of zstd up to
date. The current zstd in the kernel shares the guts of the code, but has a lot
of API and minor changes to work in the kernel. This is because at the time
upstream zstd was not ready to be used in the kernel envrionment as-is. But,
since then upstream zstd has evolved to support being used in the kernel as-is.
Why are we updating in one big patch?
-------------------------------------
The 3rd patch in the series is very large. This is because it is restructuring
the code, so it both deletes the existing zstd, and re-adds the new structure.
Future updates will be directly proportional to the changes in upstream zstd
since the last import. They will admittidly be large, as zstd is an actively
developed project, and has hundreds of commits between every release. However,
there is no other great alternative.
One option ruled out is to replay every upstream zstd commit. This is not feasible
for several reasons:
- There are over 3500 upstream commits since the zstd version in the kernel.
- The automation to automatically generate the kernel update was only added recently,
so older commits cannot easily be imported.
- Not every upstream zstd commit builds.
- Only zstd releases are "supported", and individual commits may have bugs that were
fixed before a release.
Another option to reduce the patch size would be to first reorganize to the new
file structure, and then apply the patch. However, the current kernel zstd is formatted
with clang-format to be more "kernel-like". But, the new method imports zstd as-is,
without additional formatting, to allow for closer correlation with upstream, and
easier debugging. So the patch wouldn't be any smaller.
It also doesn't make sense to import upstream zstd commit by commit going
forward. Upstream zstd doesn't support production use cases running of the
development branch. We have a lot of post-commit fuzzing that catches many bugs,
so indiviudal commits may be buggy, but fixed before a release. So going forward,
I intend to import every (important) zstd release into the Kernel.
So, while it isn't ideal, updating in one big patch is the only patch I see forward.
Who is responsible for this code?
---------------------------------
I am. This patchset adds me as the maintainer for zstd. Previously, there was no tree
for zstd patches. Because of that, there were several patches that either got ignored,
or took a long time to merge, since it wasn't clear which tree should pick them up.
I'm officially stepping up as maintainer, and setting up my tree as the path through
which zstd patches get merged. I'll make sure that patches to the kernel zstd get
ported upstream, so they aren't erased when the next version update happens.
How is this code tested?
------------------------
I tested every caller of zstd on x86_64 (BtrFS, ZRAM, SquashFS, F2FS, Kernel,
InitRAMFS). I also tested Kernel & InitRAMFS on i386 and aarch64. I checked both
performance and correctness.
Also, thanks to many people in the community who have tested these patches locally.
If you have tested the patches, please reply with a Tested-By so I can collect them
for the PR I will send to Linus.
Lastly, this code will bake in linux-next before being merged into v5.16.
Why update to zstd-1.4.10 when zstd-1.5.0 has been released?
------------------------------------------------------------
This patchset has been outstanding since 2020, and zstd-1.4.10 was the latest
release when it was created. Since the update patch is automatically generated
from upstream, I could generate it from zstd-1.5.0. However, there were some
large stack usage regressions in zstd-1.5.0, and are only fixed in the latest
development branch. And the latest development branch contains some new code that
needs to bake in the fuzzer before I would feel comfortable releasing to the
kernel.
Once this patchset has been merged, and we've released zstd-1.5.1, we can update
the kernel to zstd-1.5.1, and exercise the update process.
You may notice that zstd-1.4.10 doesn't exist upstream. This release is an
artifical release based off of zstd-1.4.9, with some fixes for the kernel
backported from the development branch. I will tag the zstd-1.4.10 release after
this patchset is merged, so the Linux Kernel is running a known version of zstd
that can be debugged upstream.
Why was a wrapper API added?
----------------------------
The first versions of this patchset migrated the kernel to the upstream zstd
API. It first added a shim API that supported the new upstream API with the old
code, then updated callers to use the new shim API, then transitioned to the
new code and deleted the shim API. However, Cristoph Hellwig suggested that we
transition to a kernel style API, and hide zstd's upstream API behind that.
This is because zstd's upstream API is supports many other use cases, and does
not follow the kernel style guide, while the kernel API is focused on the
kernel's use cases, and follows the kernel style guide.
Where is the previous discussion?
---------------------------------
Links for the discussions of the previous versions of the patch set.
The largest changes in the design of the patchset are driven by the discussions
in V11, V5, and V1. Sorry for the mix of links, I couldn't find most of the the
threads on lkml.org.

Merge tag 'zstd-for-linus-v5.16' of git://github.com/terrelln/linux
Pull zstd update from Nick Terrell:
"Update to zstd-1.4.10.
Add myself as the maintainer of zstd and update the zstd version in
the kernel, which is now 4 years out of date, to a much more recent
zstd release. This includes bug fixes, much more extensive fuzzing,
and performance improvements. And generates the kernel zstd
automatically from upstream zstd, so it is easier to keep the zstd
verison up to date, and we don't fall so far out of date again.
This includes 5 commits that update the zstd library version:
- Adds a new kernel-style wrapper around zstd.
This wrapper API is functionally equivalent to the subset of the
current zstd API that is currently used. The wrapper API changes to
be kernel style so that the symbols don't collide with zstd's
symbols. The update to zstd-1.4.10 maintains the same API and
preserves the semantics, so that none of the callers need to be
updated. All callers are updated in the commit, because there are
zero functional changes.
- Adds an indirection for `lib/decompress_unzstd.c` so it doesn't
depend on the layout of `lib/zstd/` to include every source file.
This allows the next patch to be automatically generated.
- Imports the zstd-1.4.10 source code. This commit is automatically
generated from upstream zstd (https://github.com/facebook/zstd).
- Adds me (terrelln@fb.com) as the maintainer of `lib/zstd`.
- Fixes a newly added build warning for clang.
The discussion around this patchset has been pretty long, so I've
included a FAQ-style summary of the history of the patchset, and why
we are taking this approach.
Why do we need to update?
-------------------------
The zstd version in the kernel is based off of zstd-1.3.1, which is
was released August 20, 2017. Since then zstd has seen many bug fixes
and performance improvements. And, importantly, upstream zstd is
continuously fuzzed by OSS-Fuzz, and bug fixes aren't backported to
older versions. So the only way to sanely get these fixes is to keep
up to date with upstream zstd.
There are no known security issues that affect the kernel, but we need
to be able to update in case there are. And while there are no known
security issues, there are relevant bug fixes. For example the problem
with large kernel decompression has been fixed upstream for over 2
years [1]
Additionally the performance improvements for kernel use cases are
significant. Measured for x86_64 on my Intel i9-9900k @ 3.6 GHz:
- BtrFS zstd compression at levels 1 and 3 is 5% faster
- BtrFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- F2FS zstd compression+write at level 3 is 8% faster
- F2FS zstd decompression+read is 20% faster
- ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster
- Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster
- Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster
On top of this, there are significant performance improvements coming
down the line in the next zstd release, and the new automated update
patch generation will allow us to pull them easily.
How is the update patch generated?
----------------------------------
The first two patches are preparation for updating the zstd version.
Then the 3rd patch in the series imports upstream zstd into the
kernel. This patch is automatically generated from upstream. A script
makes the necessary changes and imports it into the kernel. The
changes are:
- Replace all libc dependencies with kernel replacements and rewrite
includes.
- Remove unncessary portability macros like: #if defined(_MSC_VER).
- Use the kernel xxhash instead of bundling it.
This automation gets tested every commit by upstream's continuous
integration. When we cut a new zstd release, we will submit a patch to
the kernel to update the zstd version in the kernel.
The automated process makes it easy to keep the kernel version of zstd
up to date. The current zstd in the kernel shares the guts of the
code, but has a lot of API and minor changes to work in the kernel.
This is because at the time upstream zstd was not ready to be used in
the kernel envrionment as-is. But, since then upstream zstd has
evolved to support being used in the kernel as-is.
Why are we updating in one big patch?
-------------------------------------
The 3rd patch in the series is very large. This is because it is
restructuring the code, so it both deletes the existing zstd, and
re-adds the new structure. Future updates will be directly
proportional to the changes in upstream zstd since the last import.
They will admittidly be large, as zstd is an actively developed
project, and has hundreds of commits between every release. However,
there is no other great alternative.
One option ruled out is to replay every upstream zstd commit. This is
not feasible for several reasons:
- There are over 3500 upstream commits since the zstd version in the
kernel.
- The automation to automatically generate the kernel update was only
added recently, so older commits cannot easily be imported.
- Not every upstream zstd commit builds.
- Only zstd releases are "supported", and individual commits may have
bugs that were fixed before a release.
Another option to reduce the patch size would be to first reorganize
to the new file structure, and then apply the patch. However, the
current kernel zstd is formatted with clang-format to be more
"kernel-like". But, the new method imports zstd as-is, without
additional formatting, to allow for closer correlation with upstream,
and easier debugging. So the patch wouldn't be any smaller.
It also doesn't make sense to import upstream zstd commit by commit
going forward. Upstream zstd doesn't support production use cases
running of the development branch. We have a lot of post-commit
fuzzing that catches many bugs, so indiviudal commits may be buggy,
but fixed before a release. So going forward, I intend to import every
(important) zstd release into the Kernel.
So, while it isn't ideal, updating in one big patch is the only patch
I see forward.
Who is responsible for this code?
---------------------------------
I am. This patchset adds me as the maintainer for zstd. Previously,
there was no tree for zstd patches. Because of that, there were
several patches that either got ignored, or took a long time to merge,
since it wasn't clear which tree should pick them up. I'm officially
stepping up as maintainer, and setting up my tree as the path through
which zstd patches get merged. I'll make sure that patches to the
kernel zstd get ported upstream, so they aren't erased when the next
version update happens.
How is this code tested?
------------------------
I tested every caller of zstd on x86_64 (BtrFS, ZRAM, SquashFS, F2FS,
Kernel, InitRAMFS). I also tested Kernel & InitRAMFS on i386 and
aarch64. I checked both performance and correctness.
Also, thanks to many people in the community who have tested these
patches locally.
Lastly, this code will bake in linux-next before being merged into
v5.16.
Why update to zstd-1.4.10 when zstd-1.5.0 has been released?
------------------------------------------------------------
This patchset has been outstanding since 2020, and zstd-1.4.10 was the
latest release when it was created. Since the update patch is
automatically generated from upstream, I could generate it from
zstd-1.5.0.
However, there were some large stack usage regressions in zstd-1.5.0,
and are only fixed in the latest development branch. And the latest
development branch contains some new code that needs to bake in the
fuzzer before I would feel comfortable releasing to the kernel.
Once this patchset has been merged, and we've released zstd-1.5.1, we
can update the kernel to zstd-1.5.1, and exercise the update process.
You may notice that zstd-1.4.10 doesn't exist upstream. This release
is an artifical release based off of zstd-1.4.9, with some fixes for
the kernel backported from the development branch. I will tag the
zstd-1.4.10 release after this patchset is merged, so the Linux Kernel
is running a known version of zstd that can be debugged upstream.
Why was a wrapper API added?
----------------------------
The first versions of this patchset migrated the kernel to the
upstream zstd API. It first added a shim API that supported the new
upstream API with the old code, then updated callers to use the new
shim API, then transitioned to the new code and deleted the shim API.
However, Cristoph Hellwig suggested that we transition to a kernel
style API, and hide zstd's upstream API behind that. This is because
zstd's upstream API is supports many other use cases, and does not
follow the kernel style guide, while the kernel API is focused on the
kernel's use cases, and follows the kernel style guide.
Where is the previous discussion?
---------------------------------

below. The largest changes in the design of the patchset are driven by
the discussions in v11, v5, and v1. Sorry for the mix of links, I

It invokes kthread_run to create a thread and run issue_discard_thread.
However, if f2fs_build_node_manager fails, the control flow goes to
free_nm and calls f2fs_destroy_node_manager. This function will free
sbi->nm_info. However, if issue_discard_thread accesses sbi->nm_info
after the deallocation, but before the f2fs_stop_discard_thread, it will
cause UAF(Use-after-free).
-> f2fs_destroy_segment_manager
-> destroy_discard_cmd_control
-> f2fs_stop_discard_thread
Fix this by stopping discard thread before f2fs_destroy_node_manager.

This patch:
- Moves `include/linux/zstd.h` -> `include/linux/zstd_lib.h`
- Updates modified zstd headers to yearless copyright
- Adds a new API in `include/linux/zstd.h` that is functionally
equivalent to the in-use subset of the current API. Functions are
renamed to avoid symbol collisions with zstd, to make it clear it is
not the upstream zstd API, and to follow the kernel style guide.
- Updates all callers to use the new API.
There are no functional changes in this patch. Since there are no
functional change, I felt it was okay to update all the callers in a
single patch. Once the API is approved, the callers are mechanically
changed.
This patch is preparing for the 3rd patch in this series, which updates
zstd to version 1.4.10. Since the upstream zstd API is no longer exposed
to callers, the update can happen transparently.

Added two options into "mode=" mount option to make it possible for
developers to simulate filesystem fragmentation/after-GC situation
itself. The developers use these modes to understand filesystem
fragmentation/after-GC condition well, and eventually get some
insights to handle them better.
"fragment:segment": f2fs allocates a new segment in ramdom position.
With this, we can simulate the after-GC condition.
"fragment:block" : We can scatter block allocation with
"max_fragment_chunk" and "max_fragment_hole" sysfs
nodes. f2fs will allocate 1..<max_fragment_chunk>
blocks in a chunk and make a hole in the length of
1..<max_fragment_hole> by turns in a newly allocated
free segment. Plus, this mode implicitly enables
"fragment:segment" option for more randomness.

In this cycle, we've addressed some performance issues such as lock contention,
misbehaving compress_cache, allowing extent_cache for compressed files, and new
sysfs to adjust ra_size for fadvise. In order to diagnose the performance issues
quickly, we also added an iostat which shows the IO latencies periodically. On
the stability side, we've found two memory leakage cases in the error path in
compression flow. And, we've also fixed various corner cases in fiemap, quota,
checkpoint=disable, zstd, and so on.
Enhancement:
- avoid long checkpoint latency by releasing nat_tree_lock
- collect and show iostats periodically
- support extent_cache for compressed files
- add a sysfs entry to manage ra_size given fadvise(POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL)
- report f2fs GC status via sysfs
- add discard_unit=%s in mount option to handle zoned device
Bug fix:
- fix two memory leakages when an error happens in the compressed IO flow
- fix commpress_cache to get the right LBA
- fix fiemap to deal with compressed case correctly
- fix wrong EIO returns due to SBI_NEED_FSCK
- fix missing writes when enabling checkpoint back
- fix quota deadlock
- fix zstd level mount option
In addition to the above major updates, we've cleaned up several code paths such
as dio, unnecessary operations, debugfs/f2fs/status, sanity check, and typos.

Merge tag 'f2fs-for-5.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this cycle, we've addressed some performance issues such as lock
contention, misbehaving compress_cache, allowing extent_cache for
compressed files, and new sysfs to adjust ra_size for fadvise.
In order to diagnose the performance issues quickly, we also added an
iostat which shows the IO latencies periodically.
On the stability side, we've found two memory leakage cases in the
error path in compression flow. And, we've also fixed various corner
cases in fiemap, quota, checkpoint=disable, zstd, and so on.
Enhancements:
- avoid long checkpoint latency by releasing nat_tree_lock
- collect and show iostats periodically
- support extent_cache for compressed files
- add a sysfs entry to manage ra_size given fadvise(POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL)
- report f2fs GC status via sysfs
- add discard_unit=%s in mount option to handle zoned device
Bug fixes:
- fix two memory leakages when an error happens in the compressed IO flow
- fix commpress_cache to get the right LBA
- fix fiemap to deal with compressed case correctly
- fix wrong EIO returns due to SBI_NEED_FSCK
- fix missing writes when enabling checkpoint back
- fix quota deadlock
- fix zstd level mount option
In addition to the above major updates, we've cleaned up several code
paths such as dio, unnecessary operations, debugfs/f2fs/status, sanity
check, and typos"

We must flush all the dirty data when enabling checkpoint back. Let's guarantee
that first by adding a retry logic on sync_inodes_sb(). In addition to that,
this patch adds to flush data in fsync when checkpoint is disabled, which can

Whenever we notice some sluggish issues on our machines, we are always
curious about how well all types of I/O in the f2fs filesystem are
handled. But, it's hard to get this kind of real data. First of all,
we need to reproduce the issue while turning on the profiling tool like
blktrace, but the issue doesn't happen again easily. Second, with the
intervention of any tools, the overall timing of the issue will be
slightly changed and it sometimes makes us hard to figure it out.
So, I added the feature printing out IO latency statistics tracepoint
events, which are minimal things to understand filesystem's I/O related
behaviors, into F2FS_IOSTAT kernel config. With "iostat_enable" sysfs
node on, we can get this statistics info in a periodic way and it
would cause the least overhead.

As James Z reported in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213877
[1.] One-line summary of the problem:
Mount multiple SMR block devices exceed certain number cause system non-response
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
Created some F2FS on SMR devices (mkfs.f2fs -m), then mounted in sequence. Each device is the same Model: HGST HSH721414AL (Size 14TB).
Empirically, found that when the amount of SMR device * 1.5Gb > System RAM, the system ran out of memory and hung. No dmesg output. For example, 24 SMR Disk need 24*1.5GB = 36GB. A system with 32G RAM can only mount 21 devices, the 22nd device will be a reproducible cause of system hang.
The number of SMR devices with other FS mounted on this system does not interfere with the result above.

The root cause is, there are three bitmaps:
- cur_valid_map
- ckpt_valid_map
- discard_map
and each of them will cost ~500MB memory, {cur, ckpt}_valid_map are
necessary, but discard_map is optional, since this bitmap will only be
useful in mountpoint that small discard is enabled.
For a blkzoned device such as SMR or ZNS devices, f2fs will only issue
discard for a section(zone) when all blocks of that section are invalid,
so, for such device, we don't need small discard functionality at all.
This patch introduces a new mountoption "discard_unit=block|segment|
section" to support issuing discard with different basic unit which is
aligned to block, segment or section, so that user can specify
"discard_unit=segment" or "discard_unit=section" to disable small
discard functionality.
Note that this mount option can not be changed by remount() due to
related metadata need to be initialized during mount().
In order to save memory, let's use "discard_unit=section" for blkzoned
device by default.

When we create a directory with enable compression, all file write into
directory will try to compress.But sometimes we may know, new file
cannot meet compression ratio requirements.
We need a nocompress extension to skip those files to avoid unnecessary
compress page test.
After add nocompress_extension, the priority should be:
dir_flag < comp_extention,nocompress_extension < comp_file_flag,
no_comp_file_flag.
Priority in between FS_COMPR_FL, FS_NOCOMP_FS, extensions:
* compress_extension=so; nocompress_extension=zip; chattr +c dir;
touch dir/foo.so; touch dir/bar.zip; touch dir/baz.txt; then foo.so
and baz.txt should be compresse, bar.zip should be non-compressed.
chattr +c dir/bar.zip can enable compress on bar.zip.
* compress_extension=so; nocompress_extension=zip; chattr -c dir;
touch dir/foo.so; touch dir/bar.zip; touch dir/baz.txt; then foo.so

Initramfs generators rely on "pre" softdeps (and "depends") to include

F2FS does not declare "pre: crc32" softdep. Then every generator (dracut,

Hence let's use MODULE_SOFTDEP("pre: crc32") in f2fs code.

In this round, we added a new mount option, "checkpoint_merge", which introduces
a kernel thread dealing with the f2fs checkpoints. Once we start to manage the
IO priority along with blk-cgroup, the checkpoint operation can be processed in
a lower priority under the process context. Since the checkpoint holds all the
filesystem operations, we give a higher priority to the checkpoint thread all
the time.
Enhancement:
- introduce gc_merge mount option to introduce a checkpoint thread
- improve to run discard thread efficiently
- allow modular compression algorithms
- expose # of overprivision segments to sysfs
- expose runtime compression stat to sysfs
Bug fix:
- fix OOB memory access by the node id lookup
- avoid touching checkpointed data in the checkpoint-disabled mode
- fix the resizing flow to avoid kernel panic and race conditions
- fix block allocation issues on pinned files
- address some swapfile issues
- fix hugtask problem and kernel panic during atomic write operations
- don't start checkpoint thread in RO
