This ioctl shrinks a given length (aligned to sections) from end of the
main area. Any cursegs and valid blocks will be moved out before
invalidating the range.
This feature can be used for adjusting partition sizes online.
History of the patch:
Sahitya Tummala:
- Add this ioctl for f2fs_compat_ioctl() as well.
- Fix debugfs status to reflect the online resize changes.
- Fix potential race between online resize path and allocate new data
block path or gc path.
Others:
- Rename some identifiers.
- Add some error handling branches.
- Clear sbi->next_victim_seg[BG_GC/FG_GC] in shrinking range.
- Implement this interface as ext4's, and change the parameter from shrunk
bytes to new block count of F2FS.
- During resizing, force to empty sit_journal and forbid adding new
entries to it, in order to avoid invalid segno in journal after resize.
- Reduce sbi->user_block_count before resize starts.
- Commit the updated superblock first, and then update in-memory metadata
only when the former succeeds.
- Target block count must align to sections.
- Write checkpoint before and after committing the new superblock, w/o
CP_FSCK_FLAG respectively, so that the FS can be fixed by fsck even if
resize fails after the new superblock is committed.
- In free_segment_range(), reduce granularity of gc_mutex.
- Add protection on curseg migration.
- Add freeze_bdev() and thaw_bdev() for resize fs.
- Remove CUR_MAIN_SECS and use MAIN_SECS directly for allocation.
- Recover super_block and FS metadata when resize fails.
- No need to clear CP_FSCK_FLAG in update_ckpt_flags().
- Clean up the sb and fs metadata update functions for resize_fs.
Geert Uytterhoeven:
- Use div_u64*() for 64-bit divisions
Arnd Bergmann:
- Not all architectures support get_user() with a 64-bit argument:
ERROR: "__get_user_bad" [fs/f2fs/f2fs.ko] undefined!
Use copy_from_user() here, this will always work.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
