"F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is flash-friendly file system which was merged
into Linux kernel v3.8 in 2013.
The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start, takes into
account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as
solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards).
F2FS was designed on a basis of a log-structured file system approach, which
remedies some known issues of the older log structured file systems, such as
the snowball effect of wandering trees and high cleaning overhead. In addition,
since a NAND-based storage device shows different characteristics according to
its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme (such as the Flash
Translation Layer or FTL), it supports various parameters not only for
configuring on-disk layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning
algorithm.", quote by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F2FS.
The source codes for F2FS are available from:

When building with GCC 8, there are several errors regarding packed-not-aligned.
./include/grub/gpt_partition.h:79:1: error: alignment 1 of ‘struct grub_gpt_partentry’ is less than 8 [-Werror=packed-not-aligned]
This patch fixes the build error by cleaning up the ambiguity of placing
aligned structure in a packed one. In "struct grub_btrfs_time" and "struct
grub_gpt_part_type", the aligned attribute seems to be superfluous, and also
has to be packed, to ensure the structure is bit-to-bit mapped to the format
laid on disk. I think we could blame to copy and paste error here for the
mistake. In "struct efi_variable", we have to use grub_efi_packed_guid_t, as
the name suggests. :)

A GPU inserted into a PCIe I/O slot disappears during system startup.
The problem centers around GRUB and a specific VGA init function in
efi_uga.c. This causes an LER (Link Error Recorvery) because the MMIO
memory has not been enabled before attempting access.
The fix is to add the same coding used in other VGA drivers, specifically
to add a check to insure that it is indeed a VGA controller. And then
enable the MMIO address space with the specific bits.

Add support for multiple, shared, early initrd images. These early
images will be loaded in the order declared, and all will be loaded
before the initrd image.
While many classes of data can be provided by early images, the
immediate use case would be for distributions to provide CPU
microcode to mitigate the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities.
There are two environment variables provided for declaring the early
images.
* GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_STOCK is for the distribution declare
images that are provided by the distribution or installed packages.
If undeclared, this will default to a set of common microcode image
names.
* GRUB_EARLY_INITRD_LINUX_CUSTOM is for user created images. User
images will be loaded after the stock images.
These separate configurations allow the distribution and user to
declare different image sets without clobbering each other.
This also makes a minor update to ensure that UUID partition labels
stay disabled when no initrd image is found, even if early images are
present.

Some versions of gcc include a plugin called "annobin", and in some
build systems this is enabled by default. This plugin creates special
ELF note sections to track which ABI-breaking features are used by a
binary, as well as a series of relocations to annotate where.
If grub is compiled with this feature, then when grub-mkimage translates
the binary to another file format which does not strongly associate
relocation data with sections (i.e. when platform is *-efi), these
relocations appear to be against the .text section rather than the
original note section. When the binary is loaded by the PE runtime
loader, hilarity ensues.
This issue is not necessarily limited to the annobin, but could arise
any time there are relocations in sections that are not represented in
grub-mkimage's output.
This patch seeks to avoid this issue by only including relocations that
refer to sections which will be included in the final binary.
As an aside, this should also obviate the need to avoid -funwind-tables,
-fasynchronous-unwind-tables, and any sections similar to .eh_frame in
the future. I've tested it on x86-64-efi with the following gcc command

BPB_TotSec16 | 19 | 2 |
This field is the old 16-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the

FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count, and
BPB_TotSec32 is 0 if the total sector count “fits” (is less than

BPB_TotSec32 | 32 | 4 |
This field is the new 32-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the

FAT12/FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count if
BPB_TotSec16 is 0 (count is greater than or equal to 0x10000).
(This specifies that an unused BPB_TotSec32 field is set to zero.)

Check the error bits in the interrupt status register. According to the
AHCI 1.2 spec, "Interrupt sources that are disabled (‘0’) are still
reflected in the status registers.", so this should work even though
grub uses polling
This fixes the following problem on a Fujitsu E744 laptop:
Sometimes there is a very long delay (up to several minutes) when
booting from hard disk. It seems accessing the DVD drive (which has no
disk inserted) sometimes fails with some errors, which leads to each
access being stalled until the 20s timeout triggers. This seems to
happen when grub is trying to read filesystem/partition data.
The problem is that the command_issue bit that is checked in the loop is
only reset if the "HBA receives a FIS which clears the BSY, DRQ, and ERR
bits for the command", but the ERR bit is never cleared. Therefore
command_issue is never reset and grub waits for the timeout.
The relevant bit in our case is the Task File Error Status (TFES), which
is equivalent to the ERR bit 0 in tfd. But this patch also checks
the other error bits except for the "Interface non-fatal error status"
bit.

The properties #address-cells and #size-cells are used to know the
number of cells for ranges provided by "regs". If they don't exist, the
value are resp. 2 and 1.
Currently, when multiboot nodes are created it is assumed that #address-cells
and #size-cells are exactly 2. However, they are never set by GRUB and
will result to later failure when the device-tree is generated by GRUB
or contain different values.
To prevent this failure, create the both properties in the chosen nodes.

grub-mkconfig detects detached RSA signatures for kernel images used for
signature checking as valid images and adds them to grub.cfg as separate
menu entries. This patch adds .sig extension to common blacklist.

Prevent a double open. This can cause problems with some ieee1275
devices, causing the system to hang. The double open can occur
as follows:
grub_ls_list_files (char *dirname, int longlist, int all, int human)
dev = grub_device_open (device_name);
dev remains open while:
grub_normal_print_device_info (device_name);
dev = grub_device_open (name);

On efi systems, make pmtimer based tsc calibration the default over the
pit. This prevents Grub from hanging on Intel SoC systems that power gate
the pit.

When we exit grub, we don't free all the memory that we allocated earlier
for our heap region. This can cause problems with setups where you try
to descend the boot order using "exit" entries, such as PXE -> HD boot
scenarios.
