[PATCH] f2fs: fix to update user block counts in block_operations()

From: Chao Yu
Date: Thu Jun 06 2024 - 05:55:41 EST


Commit 59c9081bc86e ("f2fs: allow write page cache when writting cp")
allows write() to write data to page cache during checkpoint, so block
count fields like .total_valid_block_count, .alloc_valid_block_count
and .rf_node_block_count may encounter race condition as below:

CP Thread A
- write_checkpoint
- block_operations
- f2fs_down_write(&sbi->node_change)
- __prepare_cp_block
: ckpt->valid_block_count = .total_valid_block_count
- f2fs_up_write(&sbi->node_change)
- write
- f2fs_preallocate_blocks
- f2fs_map_blocks(,F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRE_AIO)
- f2fs_map_lock
- f2fs_down_read(&sbi->node_change)
- f2fs_reserve_new_blocks
- inc_valid_block_count
: percpu_counter_add(&sbi->alloc_valid_block_count, count)
: sbi->total_valid_block_count += count
- f2fs_up_read(&sbi->node_change)
- do_checkpoint
: sbi->last_valid_block_count = sbi->total_valid_block_count
: percpu_counter_set(&sbi->alloc_valid_block_count, 0)
: percpu_counter_set(&sbi->rf_node_block_count, 0)
- fsync
- need_do_checkpoint
- f2fs_space_for_roll_forward
: alloc_valid_block_count was reset to zero,
so, it may missed last data during checkpoint

Let's change to update .total_valid_block_count, .alloc_valid_block_count
and .rf_node_block_count in block_operations(), then their access can be
protected by .node_change and .cp_rwsem lock, so that it can avoid above
race condition.
