8f1dbbbbdf f2fs: introduce lifetime write IO statistics
This patch introduces lifetime IO write statistics exposed to the sysfs interface.
The write IO amount is obtained from block layer, accumulated in the file system and
stored in the hot node summary of checkpoint.

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.

d0239e1bf5 f2fs: detect idle time depending on user behavior
This patch adds last time that user requested filesystem operations.
This information is used to detect whether system is idle or not later.

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.

60b99b486b f2fs: introduce a periodic checkpoint flow
This patch introduces a periodic checkpoint feature.
Note that, this is not enforcing to conduct checkpoints very strictly in terms
of trigger timing, instead just hope to help user experiences.
The default value is 60 seconds.

bba681cbb2 f2fs: introduce a batched trim
This patch introduces a batched trimming feature, which submits split discard
commands.

This is to avoid long latency due to huge trim commands.
If fstrim was triggered ranging from 0 to the end of device, we should lock
all the checkpoint-related mutexes, resulting in very long latency.

c1ce1b02bb f2fs: give an option to enable in-place-updates during fsync to users
If user wrote F2FS_IPU_FSYNC:4 in /sys/fs/f2fs/ipu_policy, f2fs_sync_file
only starts to try in-place-updates.
And, if the number of dirty pages is over /sys/fs/f2fs/min_fsync_blocks, it
keeps out-of-order manner. Otherwise, it triggers in-place-updates.

This may be used by storage showing very high random write performance.

For example, it can be used when,

Seq. writes (Data) + wait + Seq. writes (Node)

is pretty much slower than,

Rand. writes (Data)

cdfc41c134 f2fs: throttle the memory footprint with a sysfs entry
This patch introduces ram_thresh, a sysfs entry, which controls the memory
footprint used by the free nid list and the nat cache.

Previously, the free nid list was controlled by MAX_FREE_NIDS, while the nat
cache was managed by NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD.
However, this approach cannot be applied dynamically according to the system.

So, this patch adds ram_thresh that users can specify the threshold, which is
in order of 1 / 1024.
For example, if the total ram size is 4GB and the value is set to 10 by default,
f2fs tries to control the number of free nids and nat caches not to consume over
10 * (4GB / 1024) = 10MB.

d2dc095f42 f2fs: add sysfs entries to select the gc policy
Add sysfs entry gc_idle to control the gc policy. Where
gc_idle = 1 corresponds to selecting a cost benefit approach,
while gc_idle = 2 corresponds to selecting a greedy approach
to garbage collection. The selection is mutually exclusive one
approach will work at any point. If gc_idle = 0, then this
option is disabled.
