Currently, when we allocating a swap file on zone UFS, this file will
created on conventional UFS. If the swap file size is not aligned with the
zone size, the last extent will enter f2fs_migrate_blocks(), resulting in
significant additional I/O overhead and prolonged lock occupancy. In most
cases, this is unnecessary, because on Conventional UFS, as long as the
start block of the swap file is aligned with zone, it is sequentially
aligned.To circumvent this issue, we have altered the conditions for
entering f2fs_migrate_blocks(). Now, if the start block of the last extent
is aligned with the start of zone, we avoids entering
f2fs_migrate_blocks().

Hi,

Is it possible that we can pin swapfile, and fallocate on it aligned to
zone size, then mkswap and swapon?

Thanks,
