This patch adds FASTBOOT flag into checkpoint as follows.
- CP_UMOUNT_FLAG is set when system is umounted.
- CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG is set when intermediate checkpoint having node summaries
was done.
So, if you get CP_UMOUNT_FLAG from checkpoint, the system was umounted cleanly.
Instead, if there was sudden-power-off, you can get CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG or nothing.

This patch aligns the start block address of a file for direct io to the f2fs's
section size.
Some flash devices manage an over 4KB-sized page as a write unit, and if the
direct_io'ed data are written but not aligned to that unit, the performance can
be degraded due to the partial page copies.
Thus, since f2fs has a section that is well aligned to FTL units, we can align
the block address to the section size so that f2fs avoids this misalignment.

This patch adds two new ioctls to release inmemory pages grabbed by atomic
writes.
o f2fs_ioc_abort_volatile_write
- If transaction was failed, all the grabbed pages and data should be written.
o f2fs_ioc_release_volatile_write
- This is to enhance the performance of PERSIST mode in sqlite.
In order to avoid huge memory consumption which causes OOM, this patch changes
volatile writes to use normal dirty pages, instead blocked flushing to the disk
as long as system does not suffer from memory pressure.

In f2fs_evict_inode,
commit_inmemory_pages
f2fs_gc
f2fs_iget
iget_locked
-> wait for inode free
Here, if the inode is same as the one to be evicted, f2fs should wait forever.
Actually, we should not call f2fs_balance_fs during f2fs_evict_inode to avoid
this.
But, the commit_inmem_pages calls f2fs_balance_fs by default, even if
f2fs_evict_inode wants to free inmemory pages only.
Hence, this patch adds to trigger f2fs_balance_fs only when there is something

This patch introduces a very limited functionality for atomic write support.
In order to support atomic write, this patch adds two ioctls:
o F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE
o F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE
The database engine should be aware of the following sequence.
1. open
-> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
2. writes
: all the written data will be treated as atomic pages.
3. commit
-> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
: this flushes all the data blocks to the disk, which will be shown all or
nothing by f2fs recovery procedure.
4. repeat to #2.
The IO pattens should be:
,- START_ATOMIC_WRITE ,- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE
CP | D D D D D D | FSYNC | D D D D | FSYNC ...
`- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE

Block size in f2fs is 4096 bytes, so theoretically, f2fs can support 4096 bytes
sector device at maximum. But now f2fs only support 512 bytes size sector, so
block device such as zRAM which uses page cache as its block storage space will
not be mounted successfully as mismatch between sector size of zRAM and sector
size of f2fs supported.
In this patch we support large sector size in f2fs, so block device with sector
size of 512/1024/2048/4096 bytes can be supported in f2fs.

If user wrote F2FS_IPU_FSYNC:4 in /sys/fs/f2fs/ipu_policy, f2fs_sync_file
only starts to try in-place-updates.
And, if the number of dirty pages is over /sys/fs/f2fs/min_fsync_blocks, it
keeps out-of-order manner. Otherwise, it triggers in-place-updates.
This may be used by storage showing very high random write performance.
For example, it can be used when,
Seq. writes (Data) + wait + Seq. writes (Node)
is pretty much slower than,
Rand. writes (Data)

In commit aec71382c6 ("f2fs: refactor flush_nat_entries codes for reducing NAT
writes"), we descripte the issue as below:
"Although building NAT journal in cursum reduce the read/write work for NAT
block, but previous design leave us lower performance when write checkpoint
frequently for these cases:
1. if journal in cursum has already full, it's a bit of waste that we flush all
nat entries to page for persistence, but not to cache any entries.
2. if journal in cursum is not full, we fill nat entries to journal util
journal is full, then flush the left dirty entries to disk without merge
journaled entries, so these journaled entries may be flushed to disk at next
checkpoint but lost chance to flushed last time."
Actually, we have the same problem in using SIT journal area.
In this patch, firstly we will update sit journal with dirty entries as many as
possible. Secondly if there is no space in sit journal, we will remove all
entries in journal and walk through the whole dirty entry bitmap of sit,
accounting dirty sit entries located in same SIT block to sit entry set. All
entry sets are linked to list sit_entry_set in sm_info, sorted ascending order
by count of entries in set. Later we flush entries in set which have fewest
entries into journal as many as we can, and then flush dense set with merged
entries to disk.
In this way we can use sit journal area more effectively, also we will reduce
SIT update, result in gaining in performance and saving lifetime of flash
device.
In my testing environment, it shows this patch can help to reduce SIT block
update obviously.

I think we need to let the dirty node pages remain in the page cache instead
of rewriting them in their places.
So, after done with successful recovery, write_checkpoint will flush all of them

There are redundant lines in allocate_data_block.
In this function, we call refresh_sit_entry with old seg and old curseg.
After that, we call locate_dirty_segment with old curseg.
But, the new address is always allocated from old curseg and
we call locate_dirty_segment with old curseg in refresh_sit_entry.
So, we do not need to call locate_dirty_segment with old curseg again.
We've discussed like below:
Jaegeuk said:
"When considering SSR, we need to take care of the following scenario.
- old segno : X
- new address : Z
- old curseg : Y
This means, a new block is supposed to be written to Z from X.
And Z is newly allocated in the same path from Y.
In that case, we should trigger locate_dirty_segment for Y, since
it was a current_segment and can be dirty owing to SSR.
But that was not included in the dirty list."
Changman said:
"We already choosed old curseg(Y) and then we allocate new address(Z) from old
curseg(Y). After that we call refresh_sit_entry(old address, new address).
In the funcation, we call locate_dirty_segment with old seg and old curseg.
So calling locate_dirty_segment after refresh_sit_entry again is redundant."
Jaegeuk said:
"Right. The new address is always allocated from old_curseg."
