different competitors
Since we use different page cache (normally inode's page cache for R/W
and meta inode's page cache for GC) to cache the same physical block
which is belong to an encrypted inode. Writeback of these two page
cache should be exclusive, but now we didn't handle writeback state
well, so there may be potential racing problem:
a)
kworker: f2fs_gc:
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- f2fs_write_data_page
- do_write_data_page
- write_data_page
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 in inode's page cache was queued
in f2fs bio cache, and be ready to write
to new blkaddr)
- gc_data_segment
- move_encrypted_block
- pagecache_get_page
(page#2 in meta inode's page cache
was cached with the invalid datas
of physical block located in new
blkaddr)
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 was submitted, later, page#2
with invalid data will be submitted)
b)
f2fs_gc:
- gc_data_segment
- move_encrypted_block
- f2fs_submit_page_mbio
(page#1 in meta inode's page cache was
queued in f2fs bio cache, and be ready
to write to new blkaddr)
user thread:
- f2fs_write_begin
- f2fs_submit_page_bio
(we submit the request to block layer
to update page#2 in inode's page cache
with physical block located in new
blkaddr, so here we may read gabbage
data from new blkaddr since GC hasn't
writebacked the page#1 yet)
This patch fixes above potential racing problem for encrypted inode.

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

Now, we use ra_meta_pages to reads continuous physical blocks as much as
possible to improve performance of following reads. However, ra_meta_pages
uses a synchronous readahead approach by submitting bio with READ, as READ
is with high priority, it can not be used in the case of preloading blocks,
and it's not sure when these RAed pages will be used.
This patch supports asynchronous readahead in ra_meta_pages by tagging bio
with READA flag in order to allow preloading.

This patch introduce a new helper f2fs_update_extent_tree_range which can
do extent mapping update at a specified range.
The main idea is:
1) punch all mapping info in extent node(s) which are at a specified range;
2) try to merge new extent mapping with adjacent node, or failing that,
insert the mapping into extent tree as a new node.
In order to see the benefit, I add a function for stating time stamping
count as below:
uint64_t rdtsc(void)
{
uint32_t lo, hi;
__asm__ __volatile__ ("rdtsc" : "=a" (lo), "=d" (hi));
return (uint64_t)hi << 32 | lo;
}
My test environment is: ubuntu, intel i7-3770, 16G memory, 256g micron ssd.

1) For the updates in truncation path:
- we can see updating in batches leads total tsc and update count reducing
explicitly;
- besides, for a single batched updating, punching multiple extent nodes
in a loop, result in executing more operations, so our average tsc
increase intensively.
2) For the updates in non-truncation path:
- there is a little improvement, that is because for the scenario that we
just need to update in the head or tail of extent node, new interface
optimize to update info in extent node directly, rather than removing
original extent node for updating and then inserting that updated one
into cache as new node.

In following call stack, if unfortunately we lose all chances to truncate

previously into free nid cache, this nid is with NID_NEW status and with
NEW_ADDR in its blkaddr pointer:
- f2fs_create
- f2fs_add_link
- __f2fs_add_link
- init_inode_metadata
- new_inode_page
- new_node_page
- set_node_addr(, NEW_ADDR)

- handle_failed_inode
- remove_inode_page failed

incorrect use of the previous blkaddr which is located in NO.nid node entry
when this nid is reused by others.

As the below comment of bio_alloc_bioset, f2fs can allocate multiple bios at the
same time. So, we can't guarantee that bio is allocated all the time.
"
* When @bs is not NULL, if %__GFP_WAIT is set then bio_alloc will always be
* able to allocate a bio. This is due to the mempool guarantees. To make this
* work, callers must never allocate more than 1 bio at a time from this pool.
* Callers that need to allocate more than 1 bio must always submit the
* previously allocated bio for IO before attempting to allocate a new one.
* Failure to do so can cause deadlocks under memory pressure.
