This patch introduces a runtime hot/cold data separation method
for f2fs, in order to improve the accuracy for data temperature
classification, reduce the garbage collection overhead after
long-term data updates.
Enhanced hot/cold data separation can record data block update
frequency as "age" of the extent per inode, and take use of the age
info to indicate better temperature type for data block allocation:
- It records total data blocks allocated since mount;
- When file extent has been updated, it calculate the count of data
blocks allocated since last update as the age of the extent;
- Before the data block allocated, it searches for the age info and
chooses the suitable segment for allocation.
Test and result:
- Prepare: create about 30000 files
* 3% for cold files (with cold file extension like .apk, from 3M to 10M)
* 50% for warm files (with random file extension like .FcDxq, from 1K
to 4M)
* 47% for hot files (with hot file extension like .db, from 1K to 256K)
- create(5%)/random update(90%)/delete(5%) the files
* total write amount is about 70G
* fsync will be called for .db files, and buffered write will be used
for other files
The storage of test device is large enough(128G) so that it will not
switch to SSR mode during the test.
Benefit: dirty segment count increment reduce about 14%
- before: Dirty +21110
- after: Dirty +18286

Current atomic write has three major issues like below.
- keeps the updates in non-reclaimable memory space and they are even
hard to be migrated, which is not good for contiguous memory
allocation.
- disk spaces used for atomic files cannot be garbage collected, so
this makes it difficult for the filesystem to be defragmented.
- If atomic write operations hit the threshold of either memory usage
or garbage collection failure count, All the atomic write operations
will fail immediately.
To resolve the issues, I will keep a COW inode internally for all the
updates to be flushed from memory, when we need to flush them out in a
situation like high memory pressure. These COW inodes will be tagged
as orphan inodes to be reclaimed in case of sudden power-cut or system
failure during atomic writes.

This patch supports to migrate swapfile in aligned write mode during

However, for the case that swapfile's size is not aligned to section

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

Currently, if we call fsync after updating the xattr date belongs to the

this policy cause low performance as checkpoint will block most foreground
operations and cause unneeded and unrelated IOs around checkpoint.
This patch will reuse regular file recovery policy for xattr node block,
so, we change to write xattr node block tagged with fsync flag to warm
area instead of cold area, and during recovery, we search warm node chain
for fsynced xattr block, and do the recovery.

obviously:

most of them are dirty entries with invalid blkaddr, which means
nodes related to these entries have been truncated, and they could
be reused after the dirty entries been checkpointed.
However, there was no checkpoint been triggered, so nid allocators
