>From the function name of get_valid_checkpoint, it seems to return
the valid cp or NULL for caller to check. If no valid one is found,
f2fs_fill_super will print the err log. But if get_valid_checkpoint
get one valid(the return value indicate that it's valid, however actually
it is invalid after sanity checking), then print another similar err
log. That seems strange. Let's keep sanity checking inside the procedure
of geting valid cp. Another improvement we gained from this move is
that even the large volume is supported, we check the cp in advanced
to skip the following procedure if failing the sanity checking.

When lookuping nat entry in cache_nat_entry, if we fail to hit nat cache,
we try to load nat entries a) from journal of current segment cache or b)
from NAT pages for updating, during the process, write lock of
nat_tree_lock will be held to avoid inconsistent condition in between
nid cache and nat cache caused by racing among nat entry shrinker,
checkpointer, nat entry updater.
But this way may cause low efficient when updating nat cache, because it
serializes accessing in journal cache or reading NAT pages.
Here, we reorder lock and update flow as below to enhance accessing
concurrency:
- get_node_info
- down_read(nat_tree_lock)
- lookup nat cache --- hit -> unlock & return
- lookup journal cache --- hit -> unlock & goto update
- up_read(nat_tree_lock)
update:
- down_write(nat_tree_lock)
- cache_nat_entry
- lookup nat cache --- nohit -> update
- up_write(nat_tree_lock)

In curseg cache, f2fs caches two different parts:
- datas of current summay block, i.e. summary entries, footer info.
- journal info, i.e. sparse nat/sit entries or io stat info.
With this approach, 1) it may cause higher lock contention when we access
or update both of the parts of cache since we use the same mutex lock
curseg_mutex to protect the cache. 2) current summary block with last
journal info will be writebacked into device as a normal summary block
when flushing, however, we treat journal info as valid one only in current
summary, so most normal summary blocks contain junk journal data, it wastes
remaining space of summary block.
So, in order to fix above issues, we split curseg cache into two parts:
a) current summary block, protected by original mutex lock curseg_mutex
b) journal cache, protected by newly introduced r/w semaphore journal_rwsem
When loading curseg cache during ->mount, we store summary info and
journal info into different caches; When doing checkpoint, we combine
datas of two cache into current summary block for persisting.

f2fs support atomic write with following semantics:
1. open db file
2. ioctl start atomic write
3. (write db file) * n
4. ioctl commit atomic write
5. close db file
With this flow we can avoid file becoming corrupted when abnormal power
cut, because we hold data of transaction in referenced pages linked in
inmem_pages list of inode, but without setting them dirty, so these data
won't be persisted unless we commit them in step 4.
But we should still hold journal db file in memory by using volatile
write, because our semantics of 'atomic write support' is incomplete, in
step 4, we could fail to submit all dirty data of transaction, once
partial dirty data was committed in storage, then after a checkpoint &
abnormal power-cut, db file will be corrupted forever.
So this patch tries to improve atomic write flow by adding a revoking flow,
once inner error occurs in committing, this gives another chance to try to
revoke these partial submitted data of current transaction, it makes
committing operation more like aotmical one.
If we're not lucky, once revoking operation was failed, EAGAIN will be
reported to user for suggesting doing the recovery with held journal file,
or retrying current transaction again.

This patch fixes to eliminate garbage name lengths in dentries in order
to provide correct answers of readdir.
For example, if a valid dentry consists of:
bitmap : 1 1 1 1
len : 32 0 x 0,
readdir can start with second bit_pos having len = 0.
Or, it can start with third bit_pos having garbage.
In both of cases, we should avoid to try filling dentries.
So, this patch not only removes any garbage length, but also avoid entering
zero length case in readdir.

An encrypted file name should never be shorter than an 16 bytes, the

Fortunately, in modern kernels the crypto layer will not crash the

f2fs use single bio buffer per type data (META/NODE/DATA) for caching
writes locating in continuous block address as many as possible, after
submitting, these writes may be still cached in bio buffer, so we have
to flush cached writes in bio buffer by calling f2fs_submit_merged_bio.
Unfortunately, in the scenario of high concurrency, bio buffer could be
flushed by someone else before we submit it as below reasons:
a) there is no space in bio buffer.
b) add a request of different type (SYNC, ASYNC).
c) add a discontinuous block address.
For this condition, f2fs_submit_merged_bio will be devastating, because
it could break the following merging of writes in bio buffer, split one
big bio into two smaller one.
This patch introduces f2fs_submit_merged_bio_cond which can do a
conditional submitting with bio buffer, before submitting it will judge
whether:
- page in DATA type bio buffer is matching with specified page;
- page in DATA type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
- page in NODE type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
If there is no eligible page in bio buffer, we will skip submitting step,
result in gaining more chance to merge consecutive block IOs in bio cache.

When seeking data in ->llseek, if we encounter a big hole which covers
several dnode pages, we will try to seek data from index of page which
is the first page of next dnode page, at most we could skip searching
(ADDRS_PER_BLOCK - 1) pages.
However it's still not efficient, because if our indirect/double-indirect

double-indirect pointer point to, it's not necessary to search the whole

This patch introduces get_next_page_offset to calculate next page offset

1. When p.ofs_unit is greater than 1, the victim we find consists
of multiple segments, possibly more than 1 dirty segment.
But nsearched always increases by 1.
2. If segments have been found but not been chosen, nsearched won't
increase. So even we have checked all dirty segments, nsearched
may still less than p.max_search.

If we configure section consist of multiple segments, foreground GC will
do the garbage collection with following approach:
for each segment in victim section
blk_start_plug
for each valid block in segment
write out by OPU method
submit bio cache <---
blk_finish_plug <---
There are two issue:
1) for most of the time, 'submit bio cache' will break the merging in
current bio buffer from writes of next segments, making a smaller bio
submitting.
2) block plug only cover IO submitting in one segment, which reduce
opportunity of merging IOs in plug with multiple segments.
So refactor the code as below structure to strive for biggest
opportunity of merging IOs:
blk_start_plug
for each segment in victim section
for each valid block in segment
write out by OPU method
submit bio cache
blk_finish_plug
