HI Chao,
SBI_NEED_FSCK is an indicator that fsck.f2fs needs to be triggered,
this flag is set in too many places. For some scenes that are not very
reproducible, adding stack information will help locate the problem.
Let's record all fsck stack history, I added F2FS_FSCK_STACK_TRACE
configuration options and sysfs nodes. After opening the configuration
options and enabling the node, it will start recording. The recorded
stack information will not be clear, and we can get information form
kernel log.

Again, please don't add this into sysfs.
Oh, I missed to check the details...
I added this node, part of the idea is to trigger the export of stack information.
There is no information transmitted through sysfs here, but the record of the stack is switched on and off.
If don't export this information through procfs and sysfs, is there a more appropriate way?
Well, I doubt why we should export stack info via proc/sysfs node or
sysfs switch.
Those info will always be needed to troubleshoot issues no matter in
user or eng version of Android, can we just print them directly into
kernel message... what I concern is we may lost the bug scene due to
no one can help to trigger dmesg printing via sysfs.
Jaegeuk, thoughts?
I thought that it'd be good to have an error history in debufs. For example,
we can have a set of reasons defined as enum and put the error counts per
SBI_NEED_FSCK along with error number like ENOMEM, EIO, and so on. The goal
would be to understand whether we're getting SBI_NEED_FSCK which triggers
fsck in practical.
In most of the cases we set SBI_NEED_FSCK, the reason is in-mem or on-disk
data becomes inconsistent, so it looks it's not easy to distinguish the
reason based on error number like ENOMEM, EIO... if I get your point correctly
here.
Thanks,

IMO, all bug_on()s are corner cases, and catching those stacks won't cost
much, so we can just use CONFIG_XXX to enable/disable this feature.

It will case memory leak after f2fs module exits.
So let's enable this feature when f2fs is not a module and enable F2FS_CHECK_FS.
I mean it needs to free .fsck_stack_history during umount().
