commit 8b107f5b97772c7c0c218302e9a4d15b4edf50b4 upstream.

If segs_per_sec is over 1 like under SMR, previously f2fs issues discard
commands redundantly on the same section, since we didn't move end position
for the previous discard command.

E.g.,

                       start  end
                         |    |
      prefree_bitmap = [01111100111100]

And, after issue discard for this section,
                             end      start
                              |        |
      prefree_bitmap = [01111100111100]

Select this section again by searching from (end + 1),
                             start  end
                                |   |
      prefree_bitmap = [01111100111100]

commit e93b9865251a0503d83fd570e7d5a7c8bc351715 upstream.

For foreground gc, greedy algorithm should be adapted, which makes
this formula work well:

	(2 * (100 / config.overprovision + 1) + 6)

But currently, we fg_gc have a prior to select bg_gc victim segments to gc
first, these victims are selected by cost-benefit algorithm, we can't guarantee
such segments have the small valid blocks, which may destroy the f2fs rule, on
the worstest case, would consume all the free segments.

This patch fix this by add a filter in check_bg_victims, if segment's has # of
valid blocks over overprovision ratio, skip such segments.

commit 88c5c13a5027b36d914536fdba23f069d7067204 upstream.

It turns out a stakable filesystem like sdcardfs in AOSP can trigger multiple
vfs_create() to lower filesystem. In that case, f2fs will add multiple dentries
having same name which breaks filesystem consistency.

Until upper layer fixes, let's work around by f2fs, which shows actually not
much performance regression.

commit 230436b3ef3fd7d4a1da19edf5e87bb2d74e0fc2 upstream.

gcc is unsure about the use of last_ofs_in_node, which might happen
without a prior initialization:

fs/f2fs//git/arm-soc/fs/f2fs/data.c: In function ‘f2fs_map_blocks’:
fs/f2fs/data.c:799:54: warning: ‘last_ofs_in_node’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
   if (prealloc &amp;&amp; dn.ofs_in_node != last_ofs_in_node + 1) {

As pointed out by Chao Yu, the code is actually correct as 'prealloc'
is only set if the last_ofs_in_node has been set, the two always
get updated together.

This initializes last_ofs_in_node to dn.ofs_in_node for each
new dnode at the start of the 'next_block' loop, which at that
point is a correct initialization as well. I assume that compilers
that correctly track the contents of the variables and do not
warn about the condition also figure out that they can eliminate
the extra assignment here.

commit 05e6ea2685c964db1e675a24a4f4e2adc22d2388 upstream.

The struct file_operations instance serving the f2fs/status debugfs file
lacks an initialization of its -&gt;owner.

This means that although that file might have been opened, the f2fs module
can still get removed. Any further operation on that opened file, releasing
included,  will cause accesses to unmapped memory.

Indeed, Mike Marshall reported the following:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa0307430
  IP: [&lt;ffffffff8132a224&gt;] full_proxy_release+0x24/0x90

  Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

Fix this by initializing the f2fs/status file_operations' -&gt;owner with
THIS_MODULE.

This will allow debugfs to grab a reference to the f2fs module upon any
open on that file, thus preventing it from getting removed.

This will allow debugfs to grab a reference to the f2fs module upon any
open on that file, thus preventing it from getting removed.

commit 204706c7accfabb67b97eef9f9a28361b6201199 upstream.

This reverts commit 1beba1b3a953107c3ff5448ab4e4297db4619c76.

The perpcu_counter doesn't provide atomicity in single core and consume more
DRAM. That incurs fs_mark test failure due to ENOMEM.
