Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: let __get_victim successfully get a segno in corner case

Suppose that the valid blocks of each section are all over sbi->fggc_threshold,
and even has_not_enough_free_secs is true, f2fs_gc cannot do its job since the
no_fggc_candidate always returns true. As a result, the reserved segments can be
used up, and finally there is no free segment at all, and get_new_segment cannot
get a free segment, filesystem will trap into a wrong status.

To fix this, we record the segno which has a rough minimum cost and return it to
__get_victim to continue f2fs_gc's job.

How about adding a kernel message first to detect your *supposed* sceanrio?
If that happens, it'll be a sort of bug which we haven't assumed.

Hi Jay,
In fact,this is not "suppose" case yet, we have already met this problem several times in some test suits for corner case, or I cannot notice that this could happen.

So, have you taken a look at distribution of valid blocks in that case?
I'm wondering what distribution can cause this.

Hi, Jay,
The distribution is like this, unit is segment counts:
cnt_free: 0 (free blocks)
cnt_full: 25182 (segment which has 512 blocks)
cnt_over: 25192 (segment which valid blocks over fggc_threshold)
cnt_below: 870 (segment which valid blocks below fggc_threshold)

The test is fragment test, add and delete small files over and over.

What are the values of fggc_threshold and ovp ratio or reserved_segments?
How was the proc/segment_info?

It seems you want to give a victim segment which has valid blocks larger than
fggc_threshold.

fggc: 507
reserve: 462
cnt_full: 25182
over: 25912 (>= fggc)
less: 870 (< fggc)

What is ovp segments?
It looks like there are 870 candidates for FG_GC, and GC with 103 segments must
give 104 free segments in the worst case. Is there a problem on p.max_search?

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [PATCH] f2fs: let __get_victim successfully get a segno in corner case

Hi, Jay,

Sorry for the mistake in last mail, the ovp is 462, and the reserved is 235.
I check the code and have not found problems with p.max_search yet.

Just forget the this patch, since there is still 870 segments below, so
it should
not be the assumed case of this patch.

By the way, I have sent another patch to provide f2fs_balance_fs to
__write_node_page,
similar as that in __write_data_page, to avoid missing f2fs_balance_fs
in node page writeback.
Please check that.
