As James Z reported in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213877
[1.] One-line summary of the problem:
Mount multiple SMR block devices exceed certain number cause system non-response
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
Created some F2FS on SMR devices (mkfs.f2fs -m), then mounted in sequence. Each device is the same Model: HGST HSH721414AL (Size 14TB).
Empirically, found that when the amount of SMR device * 1.5Gb > System RAM, the system ran out of memory and hung. No dmesg output. For example, 24 SMR Disk need 24*1.5GB = 36GB. A system with 32G RAM can only mount 21 devices, the 22nd device will be a reproducible cause of system hang.
The number of SMR devices with other FS mounted on this system does not interfere with the result above.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
F2FS, SMR, Memory
[4.] Kernel information
[4.1.] Kernel version (uname -a):
Linux 5.13.4-200.fc34.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jul 20 20:27:29 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[4.2.] Kernel .config file:
Default Fedora 34 with f2fs-tools-1.14.0-2.fc34.x86_64
[5.] Most recent kernel version which did not have the bug:
None
[6.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/admin-guide/oops-tracing.rst)

[7.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)

With 3 * 14T SMR Block device with F2FS

total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 7 5 0 0 1 1
Swap: 7 0 7
The root cause is, there are three bitmaps:
- cur_valid_map
- ckpt_valid_map
- discard_map
and each of them will cost ~500MB memory, {cur, ckpt}_valid_map are
necessary, but discard_map is optional, since this bitmap will only be
useful in mountpoint that small discard is enabled.
For a blkzoned device such as SMR or ZNS devices, f2fs will only issue
discard for a section(zone) when all blocks of that section are invalid,
so, for such device, we don't need small discard functionality at all.
This patch introduces a new mountoption "discard_unit=block|segment|
section" to support issuing discard with different basic unit which is
aligned to block, segment or section, so that user can specify
"discard_unit=segment" or "discard_unit=section" to disable small
discard functionality.
Note that this mount option can not be changed by remount() due to
related metadata need to be initialized during mount().
In order to save memory, let's use "discard_unit=section" for blkzoned
device by default.

F2FS have dirty page count control for batched sequential
write in writepages, and get the value of min_seq_blocks by
blocks_per_seg * segs_per_sec(segs_per_sec defaults to 1).
But in some scenes we set a lager section size, Min_seq_blocks
will become too large to achieve the expected effect(eg. 4thread
sequential write, the number of merge requests will be reduced).

This patch supports to migrate swapfile in aligned write mode during

possible, then pinned swapfile will locates fully filled section which
may not affected by GC.
However, for the case that swapfile's size is not aligned to section
size, it will still leave last extent in file's tail as unaligned due
to its size is smaller than section size, like case #2.

Restruct f2fs page private layout for below reasons:
There are some cases that f2fs wants to set a flag in a page to
indicate a specified status of page:
a) page is in transaction list for atomic write
b) page contains dummy data for aligned write
c) page is migrating for GC
d) page contains inline data for inline inode flush
e) page belongs to merkle tree, and is verified for fsverity
f) page is dirty and has filesystem/inode reference count for writeback
g) page is temporary and has decompress io context reference for compression
There are existed places in page structure we can use to store
f2fs private status/data:
- page.flags: PG_checked, PG_private
- page.private
However it was a mess when we using them, which may cause potential
confliction:
page.private PG_private PG_checked page._refcount (+1 at most)
a) -1 set +1
b) -2 set
c), d), e) set
f) 0 set +1
g) pointer set
The other problem is page.flags has no free slot, if we can avoid set
zero to page.private and set PG_private flag, then we use non-zero value
to indicate PG_private status, so that we may have chance to reclaim
PG_private slot for other usage. [1]
The other concern is f2fs has bad scalability in aspect of indicating
more page status.
So in this patch, let's restructure f2fs' page.private as below to
solve above issues:
Layout A: lowest bit should be 1
| bit0 = 1 | bit1 | bit2 | ... | bit MAX | private data .... |
bit 0 PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER
bit 1 PAGE_PRIVATE_ATOMIC_WRITE
bit 2 PAGE_PRIVATE_DUMMY_WRITE
bit 3 PAGE_PRIVATE_ONGOING_MIGRATION
bit 4 PAGE_PRIVATE_INLINE_INODE
bit 5 PAGE_PRIVATE_REF_RESOURCE
bit 6- f2fs private data
Layout B: lowest bit should be 0
page.private is a wrapped pointer.
After the change:
page.private PG_private PG_checked page._refcount (+1 at most)
a) 11 set +1
b) 101 set +1
c) 1001 set +1
d) 10001 set +1
e) set
f) 100001 set +1
g) pointer set +1

In this round, we added a new mount option, "checkpoint_merge", which introduces
a kernel thread dealing with the f2fs checkpoints. Once we start to manage the
IO priority along with blk-cgroup, the checkpoint operation can be processed in
a lower priority under the process context. Since the checkpoint holds all the
filesystem operations, we give a higher priority to the checkpoint thread all
the time.
Enhancement:
- introduce gc_merge mount option to introduce a checkpoint thread
- improve to run discard thread efficiently
- allow modular compression algorithms
- expose # of overprivision segments to sysfs
- expose runtime compression stat to sysfs
Bug fix:
- fix OOB memory access by the node id lookup
- avoid touching checkpointed data in the checkpoint-disabled mode
- fix the resizing flow to avoid kernel panic and race conditions
- fix block allocation issues on pinned files
- address some swapfile issues
- fix hugtask problem and kernel panic during atomic write operations
- don't start checkpoint thread in RO
And, we've cleaned up some kernel coding style and build warnings. In addition,
we fixed some minor race conditions and error handling routines.

In the cache writing process, if it is an atomic file, increase the page
count of F2FS_WB_CP_DATA, otherwise increase the page count of
F2FS_WB_DATA.
When you step into the hook branch due to insufficient memory in
f2fs_write_begin, f2fs_drop_inmem_pages_all will be called to traverse
all atomic inodes and clear the FI_ATOMIC_FILE mark of all atomic files.
In f2fs_drop_inmem_pages,first acquire the inmem_lock , revoke all the
inmem_pages, and then clear the FI_ATOMIC_FILE mark. Before this mark is
cleared, other threads may hold inmem_lock to add inmem_pages to the inode
that has just been emptied inmem_pages, and increase the page count of
F2FS_WB_CP_DATA.
When the IO returns, it is found that the FI_ATOMIC_FILE flag is cleared
by f2fs_drop_inmem_pages_all, and f2fs_is_atomic_file returns false,which
causes the page count of F2FS_WB_DATA to be decremented. The page count of
F2FS_WB_CP_DATA cannot be cleared. Finally, hungtask is triggered in
f2fs_wait_on_all_pages because get_pages will never return zero.
process A: process B:
f2fs_drop_inmem_pages_all

->dec_page_count(sbi, F2FS_WB_DATA );
We can fix the problem by putting the action of clearing the FI_ATOMIC_FILE
mark into the inmem_lock lock. This operation can ensure that no one will
submit the inmem pages before the FI_ATOMIC_FILE mark is cleared, so that
there will be no atomic writes waiting for writeback.

In CP disabling mode, there are two issues when using LFS or SSR | AT_SSR
mode to select victim:
1. LFS is set to find source section during GC, the victim should have
no checkpointed data, since after GC, section could not be set free for
reuse.
Previously, we only check valid chpt blocks in current segment rather
than section, fix it.
2. SSR | AT_SSR are set to find target segment for writes which can be
fully filled by checkpointed and newly written blocks, we should never
select such segment, otherwise it can cause panic or data corruption
during allocation, potential case is described as below:
a) target segment has 'n' (n < 512) ckpt valid blocks
b) GC migrates 'n' valid blocks to other segment (segment is still
in dirty list)

AT_SSR mode is introduced by age threshold based GC for better
hot/cold data seperation and avoiding free segment cost. However,
LFS write mode is preferred in the scenario of foreground or high
urgent GC, which should be finished ASAP. Let's only use AT_SSR
in background GC and not high urgent GC modes.

Now, fallocate() on a pinned file only allocates blocks which aligns
to segment rather than section, so GC may try to migrate pinned file's
block, and after several times of failure, pinned file's block could
be migrated to other place, however user won't be aware of such
condition, and then old obsolete block address may be readed/written
incorrectly.
To avoid such condition, let's try to allocate pinned file's blocks

We will add a new "compress_mode" mount option to control file
compression mode. This supports "fs" and "user". In "fs" mode (default),
f2fs does automatic compression on the compression enabled files.
In "user" mode, f2fs disables the automaic compression and gives the
user discretion of choosing the target file and the timing. It means
the user can do manual compression/decompression on the compression
enabled files using ioctls.

Actually, we didn't have to use _nofail in this case, since we could return
error to mount(2) already with the error handler.
As a result, this patch tries to 1) remove _nofail callers as much as possible,
2) deal with error case in last remaining caller, f2fs_get_sum_page().

There are several issues in current background GC algorithm:
- valid blocks is one of key factors during cost overhead calculation,
so if segment has less valid block, however even its age is young or
it locates hot segment, CB algorithm will still choose the segment as
victim, it's not appropriate.
- GCed data/node will go to existing logs, no matter in-there datas'
update frequency is the same or not, it may mix hot and cold data
again.
- GC alloctor mainly use LFS type segment, it will cost free segment
more quickly.
This patch introduces a new algorithm named age threshold based
garbage collection to solve above issues, there are three steps
mainly:
1. select a source victim:
- set an age threshold, and select candidates beased threshold:
e.g.
0 means youngest, 100 means oldest, if we set age threshold to 80
then select dirty segments which has age in range of [80, 100] as
candiddates;
- set candidate_ratio threshold, and select candidates based the
ratio, so that we can shrink candidates to those oldest segments;
- select target segment with fewest valid blocks in order to
migrate blocks with minimum cost;
2. select a target victim:
- select candidates beased age threshold;
- set candidate_radius threshold, search candidates whose age is
around source victims, searching radius should less than the
radius threshold.
- select target segment with most valid blocks in order to avoid
migrating current target segment.
3. merge valid blocks from source victim into target victim with
SSR alloctor.
Test steps:
- create 160 dirty segments:
* half of them have 128 valid blocks per segment
* left of them have 384 valid blocks per segment
- run background GC
Benefit: GC count and block movement count both decrease obviously:
- Before:
- Valid: 86
- Dirty: 1
- Prefree: 11
- Free: 6001 (6001)
GC calls: 162 (BG: 220)

segment to last time, making aged segment becoming freshest, result in
that GC with cost benefit algorithm missing such segment, So this patch
changes to record mtime as average block updating time instead of last
updating time.
It's not needed to reset mtime for prefree segment, as se->valid_blocks
is zero, then old se->mtime won't take any weight with below calculation:
se->mtime = div_u64(se->mtime * se->valid_blocks + mtime,
se->valid_blocks + 1);

Previous implementation of aligned pinfile allocation will:
- allocate new segment on cold data log no matter whether last used
segment is partially used or not, it makes IOs more random;
- force concurrent cold data/GCed IO going into warm data area, it
can make a bad effect on hot/cold data separation;
In this patch, we introduce a new type of log named 'inmem curseg',
the differents from normal curseg is:
- it reuses existed segment type (CURSEG_XXX_NODE/DATA);
- it only exists in memory, its segno, blkofs, summary will not b
persisted into checkpoint area;
With this new feature, we can enhance scalability of log, special
allocators can be created for purposes:
- pure lfs allocator for aligned pinfile allocation or file
defragmentation
- pure ssr allocator for later feature
So that, let's update aligned pinfile allocation to use this new
inmem curseg fwk.

NVMe Zoned Namespace devices can have zone-capacity less than zone-size.
Zone-capacity indicates the maximum number of sectors that are usable in
a zone beginning from the first sector of the zone. This makes the sectors
sectors after the zone-capacity till zone-size to be unusable.
This patch set tracks zone-size and zone-capacity in zoned devices and
calculate the usable blocks per segment and usable segments per section.
If zone-capacity is less than zone-size mark only those segments which
start before zone-capacity as free segments. All segments at and beyond
zone-capacity are treated as permanently used segments. In cases where
zone-capacity does not align with segment size the last segment will start
before zone-capacity and end beyond the zone-capacity of the zone. For
such spanning segments only sectors within the zone-capacity are used.
During writes and GC manage the usable segments in a section and usable
blocks per segment. Segments which are beyond zone-capacity are never
allocated, and do not need to be garbage collected, only the segments
which are before zone-capacity needs to garbage collected.
For spanning segments based on the number of usable blocks in that
segment, write to blocks only up to zone-capacity.
Zone-capacity is device specific and cannot be configured by the user.
Since NVMe ZNS device zones are sequentially write only, a block device
with conventional zones or any normal block device is needed along with
the ZNS device for the metadata operations of F2fs.
A typical nvme-cli output of a zoned device shows zone start and capacity
and write pointer as below:
SLBA: 0x0 WP: 0x0 Cap: 0x18800 State: EMPTY Type: SEQWRITE_REQ
SLBA: 0x20000 WP: 0x20000 Cap: 0x18800 State: EMPTY Type: SEQWRITE_REQ
SLBA: 0x40000 WP: 0x40000 Cap: 0x18800 State: EMPTY Type: SEQWRITE_REQ
Here zone size is 64MB, capacity is 49MB, WP is at zone start as the zones
are in EMPTY state. For each zone, only zone start + 49MB is usable area,
any lba/sector after 49MB cannot be read or written to, the drive will fail
any attempts to read/write. So, the second zone starts at 64MB and is
usable till 113MB (64 + 49) and the range between 113 and 128MB is
again unusable. The next zone starts at 128MB, and so on.
