Merge tag 'f2fs-for-5.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "In this round, we've tried to address some performance issues in f2fs_checkpoint and direct IO flows. Also, there was a work to enhance the page cache management used for compression. Other than them, we've done typical work including sysfs, code clean-ups, tracepoint, sanity check, in addition to bug fixes on corner cases. Enhancements: - use iomap for direct IO - try to avoid lock contention to improve f2fs_ckpt speed - avoid unnecessary memory allocation in compression flow - POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED drops the page cache containing compression pages - add some sysfs entries (gc_urgent_high_remaining, pending_discard) Bug fixes: - try not to expose unwritten blocks to user by DIO (this was added to avoid merge conflict; another patch is coming to address other missing case) - relax minor error condition for file pinning feature used in Android OTA - fix potential deadlock case in compression flow - should not truncate any block on pinned file In addition, we've done some code clean-ups and tracepoint/sanity check improvement" * tag 'f2fs-for-5.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs: (29 commits) f2fs: do not allow partial truncation on pinned file f2fs: remove redunant invalidate compress pages f2fs: Simplify bool conversion f2fs: don't drop compressed page cache in .{invalidate,release}page f2fs: fix to reserve space for IO align feature f2fs: fix to check available space of CP area correctly in update_ckpt_flags() f2fs: support fault injection to f2fs_trylock_op() f2fs: clean up __find_inline_xattr() with __find_xattr() f2fs: fix to do sanity check on last xattr entry in __f2fs_setxattr() f2fs: do not bother checkpoint by f2fs_get_node_info f2fs: avoid down_write on nat_tree_lock during checkpoint f2fs: compress: fix potential deadlock of compress file f2fs: avoid EINVAL by SBI_NEED_FSCK when pinning a file f2fs: add gc_urgent_high_remaining sysfs node f2fs: fix to do sanity check in is_alive() f2fs: fix to avoid panic in is_alive() if metadata is inconsistent f2fs: fix to do sanity check on inode type during garbage collection f2fs: avoid duplicate call of mark_inode_dirty f2fs: show number of pending discard commands f2fs: support POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED drop compressed page cache ...
