There is no need to additionally use f2fs_show_injection_info()
to output information. Concatenate time_to_inject() and
__time_to_inject() via a macro. In the new __time_to_inject()
function, pass in the caller function name and parent function.

In this way, we no longer need the f2fs_show_injection_info() function,
and let's remove it.

Before this patch, the varibale 'readdir_ra' takes effect if it's equal
to '1' or not, so we can change type for it from 'int' to 'bool'.

Wei Chen reports a kernel bug as blew:

Eric did some investigation on this issue, quoted from reply of Eric:

"Well, the quality of this bug report has a lot to be desired (not on
upstream kernel, reproducer is full of totally irrelevant stuff, not
sent to the mailing list of the filesystem whose disk image is being
fuzzed, etc.).  But what is going on is that f2fs_empty_dir() doesn't
consider the case of a directory with an extremely large i_size on a
malicious disk image.

Specifically, the reproducer mounts an f2fs image with a directory
that has an i_size of 14814520042850357248, then calls
FS_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY on it.

That results in a call to f2fs_empty_dir() to check whether the
directory is empty.  f2fs_empty_dir() then iterates through all
3616826182336513 blocks the directory allegedly contains to check
whether any contain anything.  i_rwsem is held during this, so
anything else that tries to take it will hang."

In order to solve this issue, let's use f2fs_get_next_page_offset()
to speed up iteration by skipping holes for all below functions:
- f2fs_empty_dir
- f2fs_readdir
- find_in_level

The way why we can speed up iteration was described in
'commit 3cf4574705b4 ("f2fs: introduce get_next_page_offset to speed
up SEEK_DATA")'.

Meanwhile, in f2fs_empty_dir(), let's use f2fs_find_data_page()
instead f2fs_get_lock_data_page(), due to i_rwsem was held in
caller of f2fs_empty_dir(), there shouldn't be any races, so it's
fine to not lock dentry page during lookuping dirents in the page.

<title>f2fs: don't use casefolded comparison for "." and ".."</title>

Tryng to rename a directory that has all following properties fails with
EINVAL and triggers the 'WARN_ON_ONCE(!fscrypt_has_encryption_key(dir))'
in f2fs_match_ci_name():

    - The directory is casefolded
    - The directory is encrypted
    - The directory's encryption key is not yet set up
    - The parent directory is *not* encrypted

The problem is incorrect handling of the lookup of ".." to get the
parent reference to update.  fscrypt_setup_filename() treats ".." (and
".") specially, as it's never encrypted.  It's passed through as-is, and
setting up the directory's key is not attempted.  As the name isn't a
no-key name, f2fs treats it as a "normal" name and attempts a casefolded
comparison.  That breaks the assumption of the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
f2fs_match_ci_name() which assumes that for encrypted directories,
casefolded comparisons only happen when the directory's key is set up.

We could just remove this WARN_ON_ONCE().  However, since casefolding is
always a no-op on "." and ".." anyway, let's instead just not casefold
these names.  This results in the standard bytewise comparison.

 "In this cycle, f2fs has some performance improvements for Android
  workloads such as using read-unfair rwsems and adding some sysfs
  entries to control GCs and discard commands in more details. In
  addtiion, it has some tunings to improve the recovery speed after
  sudden power-cut.

  Enhancement:
   - add reader-unfair rwsems with F2FS_UNFAIR_RWSEM: will replace with
     generic API support
   - adjust to make the readahead/recovery flow more efficiently
   - sysfs entries to control issue speeds of GCs and Discard commands
   - enable idmapped mounts

  Bug fix:
   - correct wrong error handling routines
   - fix missing conditions in quota
   - fix a potential deadlock between writeback and block plug routines
   - fix a deadlock btween freezefs and evict_inode

  We've added some boundary checks to avoid kernel panics on corrupted

f2fs rw_semaphores work better if writers can starve readers,
especially for the checkpoint thread, because writers are strictly
more important than reader threads. This prevents significant priority
inversion between low-priority readers that blocked while trying to
acquire the read lock and a second acquisition of the write lock that
might be blocking high priority work.

Turn the CONFIG_UNICODE symbol into a tristate that generates some always
built in code and remove the confusing CONFIG_UNICODE_UTF8_DATA symbol.

Note that a lot of the IS_ENABLED() checks could be turned from cpp
statements into normal ifs, but this change is intended to be fairly
mechanic, so that should be cleaned up later.

This patch supports to inject fault into f2fs_kmem_cache_alloc().

Usage:
a) echo 32768 &gt; /sys/fs/f2fs/&lt;dev&gt;/inject_type or
b) mount -o fault_type=32768 &lt;dev&gt; &lt;mountpoint&gt;

<title>f2fs: reduce the scope of setting fsck tag when de-&gt;name_len is zero</title>

I recently found a case where de-&gt;name_len is 0 in f2fs_fill_dentries()
easily reproduced, and finally set the fsck flag.

Thread A			Thread B
- f2fs_readdir
 - f2fs_read_inline_dir
  - ctx-&gt;pos = d.max
				- f2fs_add_dentry
				 - f2fs_add_inline_entry
				  - do_convert_inline_dir
				 - f2fs_add_regular_entry
- f2fs_readdir
 - f2fs_fill_dentries
  - set_sbi_flag(sbi, SBI_NEED_FSCK)

Process A opens the folder, and has been reading without closing it.
During this period, Process B created a file under the folder (occupying
multiple f2fs_dir_entry, exceeding the d.max of the inline dir). After
creation, process A uses the d.max of inline dir to read it again, and
it will read that de-&gt;name_len is 0.

And Chao pointed out that w/o inline conversion, the race condition still
can happen as below:

dir_entry1: A
dir_entry2: B
dir_entry3: C
free slot: _
ctx-&gt;pos: ^

Thread A is traversing directory,
ctx-pos moves to below position after readdir() by thread A:
AAAABBBB___
        ^

Then thread B delete dir_entry2, and create dir_entry3.

Thread A calls readdir() to lookup dirents starting from middle
of new dirent slots as below:
AAAACCCCCC_
        ^
In these scenarios, the file system is not damaged, and it's hard to
avoid it. But we can bypass tagging FSCK flag if:
a) bit_pos (:= ctx-&gt;pos % d-&gt;max) is non-zero and
b) before bit_pos moves to first valid dir_entry.
