[f2fs-dev] [PATCH V2] f2fs: The GC triggered by ioctl also needs to mark the segno as victim

From: Yongpeng Yang
Date: Tue Dec 03 2024 - 22:32:11 EST


In SSR mode, the segment selected for allocation might be the same as
the target segment of the GC triggered by ioctl, resulting in the GC
moving the CURSEG_I(sbi, type)->segno.
Thread A Thread B or Thread A
- f2fs_ioc_gc_range
- __f2fs_ioc_gc_range(.victim_segno=segno#N)
- f2fs_gc
- __get_victim
- f2fs_get_victim
: segno#N is valid, return segno#N as source segment of GC
- f2fs_allocate_data_block
- need_new_seg
- get_ssr_segment
- f2fs_get_victim
: get segno #N as destination segment
- change_curseg
