Re: [PATCH] f2fs: introduce cur_reserved_blocks in sysfs

From: Yunlong Song
Date: Wed Aug 09 2017 - 23:59:52 EST

I think the aim of reserved_blocks function is to leave space for f2fs and FTL, so I change it to a
soft version so that it can be used to fit to the data image which does not satisfy the hard version,
especially for backward compatibility when updated kernel with new default reserved_blocks set
(currently it is initially set 0 as default, but can be set any value with my new patch).

As for the uid/gid, does current f2fs space management design consider this issue? IMO, I think we
can just ensure the reserved space for file system no matter user/system type. Whether the value of
reserved_blocks is OK or not, should not be filesystem's issue. Filesystem just provide this interface,
and the upper layer, such as android vold should take care of the value of reserved_blocks and make
sure its value is appropriate and will not block any activation of system user, if it really happens, android
should change the value dynamically, it is fine, since we make reserved_blocks to a soft version.

In this patch, we add a new sysfs interface, we can use it to gradually achieve
the reserved_blocks finally, even when reserved_blocks is initially set over
user_block_count - total_valid_block_count. This is very useful, especially when
we upgrade kernel with new reserved_blocks value, but old disk image unluckily has
user_block_count - total_valid_block_count smaller than the desired reserved_blocks.
With this patch, f2fs can try its best to reserve space and get close to the
reserved_blocks, and the current value of achieved reserved_blocks can be shown
in real time.
Oh, this looks like a soft limitation in quota system, but original
reserved_blocks implementation likes a hard one, so this patch changes the
semantics of reserved_blocks.

Actually, I doubt that it would be hard to reserve all left free space in real
user scenario now, since system user's activation may depend on free space of
data partition due to file creation requirement, so w/o supporting feature of
uid/gid reserved block, soft reservation will block any activation of system
user, such as android.
