In the current implementation, block groups are activated at reservation
time to ensure that all reserved bytes can be written to an active metadata
block group. However, this approach has proven to be less efficient, as it
activates block groups more frequently than necessary, putting pressure on
the active zone resource and leading to potential issues such as early
ENOSPC or hung_task.
Another drawback of the current method is that it hampers metadata
over-commit, and necessitates additional flush operations and block group
allocations, resulting in decreased overall performance.
To address these issues, this commit introduces a write-time activation of
metadata and system block group. This involves reserving at least one
active block group specifically for a metadata and system block group.
Since metadata write-out is always allocated sequentially, when we need to
write to a non-active block group, we can wait for the ongoing IOs to
complete, activate a new block group, and then proceed with writing to the
new block group.

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.
