Re: [PATCH v2] f2fs: add bug_on when f2fs_gc even fails to get one victim

[Yunlong Song]

Sorry, misunderstanding, because I think when sync == true, FG_GC does not
check has_not_enough_free_secs, so maybe it does not have to do any gc 
at all.
For example, if there are 100 segments for f2fs, and 20 segments are full or
valid blocks over fggc_threshold, then it is correct to fail in get victim.
