Then in large section, if current segment is all valid, we won't skip scanning
it, so do we need to change like this:

if ((gc_type == BG_GC && has_not_enough_free_secs(sbi, 0, 0)) ||
get_valid_blocks(sbi, segno, false) == sbi->blocks_per_seg ||
get_valid_blocks(sbi, segno, true) == BLKS_PER_SEC(sbi))

I knew migrating one large section is a more efficient way, but this can
increase long-tail latency of f2fs_balance_fs() occasionally, especially in
extreme fragmented space.

FG_GC requires to wait for whole section migration which shows the entire
latency.

That will cause long-tail latency for single f2fs_balance_fs() procedure,
which it looks a very long hang when userspace call f2fs syscall, so why
not splitting total elapsed time into several f2fs_balance_fs() to avoid that.

Then, other ops can easily make more dirty segments. The intention of FG_GC is
to block everything and make min. free segments as a best shot.

Yup, that's a problem, if there are more dirty datas being made, reserved segments
may be ran out during FG_GC.

I just try to simulate write GC's logic in FTL to mitigate single op's max latency,
otherwise benchmark looks hang during FG_GC (in a 500mb+ section).

Hmm, I think we may need to think another way like doing BG_GC more aggressively.

Oh, if we want to FG_GC only migrate on segment on time, it needs to change
has_not_enough_free_secs() condition as well, so previous logic is broken.

Nvm, please add:

Agreed, I guess SMR scenario may need such policy: higher trigger frequency on bggc
when free space decreases, but less block migration for each bggc cycle.
