In function find_fsync_dnodes() - the fsync inodes gets added to the list, but
in one path suppose f2fs_iget results in error, in such case - error gets added
to the fsync inode list.
In next call to recover_data()->get_fsync_inode()
entry = list_entry(this, struct fsync_inode_entry, list);
if (entry->inode->i_ino == ino)
This can result in "invalid access to memory" when it encounters 'error' as
entry in the fsync inode list.
So, add the fsync inode entry to the list only in case of no errors.

The new_node_page() is processed as the following procedure.
1. A new node page is allocated.
2. Set PageUptodate with proper footer information.
3. Check if there is a free space for allocation
4.a. If there is no space, f2fs returns with -ENOSPC.
4.b. Otherwise, go next.
In the case of step #4.a, f2fs remains a wrong node page in the page cache
with the uptodate flag.
Also, even though a new node page is allocated successfully, an error can be
occurred afterwards due to allocation failure of the other data structures.
In such a case, remove_inode_page() would be triggered, so that we have to
clear uptodate flag in truncate_node() too.
So, we should remove the uptodate flag, if allocation is failed.

In order to conserve free sections to deal with the worst-case scenarios, f2fs
should be able to freeze all the directory operations especially when there are
not enough free sections. The f2fs_balance_fs() is for this use.
When FS utilization becomes almost 100%, directory operations can be failed due
to -ENOSPC frequently, which produces some dirty node pages occasionally.
Previously, in such a case, f2fs_balance_fs() is not able to be triggered since
it is triggered only if the directory operation ends up with success.
So, this patch triggers f2fs_balance_fs() at first before handling directory
operations.

Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():
while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode->i_ino, &wbc) == 0)
f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);
The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.
The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.
But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.
So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.
One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)

Error on NFS Client: "No such file or directory"
When cache is dropped at the server, it results in lookup failure at the
NFS client due to non-connection with the parent. The default path is it
initiates a lookup by calculating the hash value for the name, even though
the hash values stored on the disk for "." and ".." is maintained as zero,
which results in failure from find_in_block due to not matching HASH values.

In f2fs_statfs(), f_files should be the total number of available inodes
instead of the currently allocated inodes.
So, this patch should resolve the reported bug below.
Note that, showing 10% usage is not a bug, since f2fs reveals whole volume size
as much as possible and shows the space overhead as *used*.
This policy is fair enough with respect to other file systems.

We should guarantee not to do *scheduling while atomic*.
I found, in atomic f2fs_end_io_write(), there is a set_page_dirty() call
to deal with IO errors.
But, set_page_dirty() calls:
-> f2fs_set_data_page_dirty()
-> set_dirty_dir_page()
-> cond_resched() which results in scheduling.
In order to avoid this, I'd like to remove simply set_page_dirty(),
since the page is already marked as ERROR and f2fs will be operated
as the read-only mode as well.
So, there is no recovery issue with this.

Previously, f2fs didn't track the parent inode number correctly which is stored
in each f2fs_inode. In the case of the following scenario, a bug can be occured.
Let's suppose there are one directory, "/b", and two files, "/a" and "/b/a".
- pino of "/a" is ROOT_INO.
- pino of "/b/a" is DIR_B_INO.
Then,
# sync
: The inode pages of "/a" and "/b/a" contain the parent inode numbers as
ROOT_INO and DIR_B_INO respectively.
# mv /a /b/a
: The parent inode number of "/a" should be changed to DIR_B_INO, but f2fs
didn't do that. Ref. f2fs_set_link().
In order to fix this clearly, I added i_pino in f2fs_inode_info, and whenever
it needs to be changed like in f2fs_add_link() and f2fs_set_link(), it is
updated temporarily in f2fs_inode_info.
And later, f2fs_write_inode() stores the latest information to the inode pages.
For power-off-recovery, f2fs_sync_file() triggers simply f2fs_write_inode().

(on i386)
a. (config-r8857)

Key configs in (config-r8857) are as follows.
CONFIG_F2FS_FS=m
# CONFIG_F2FS_STAT_FS is not set

The error was occurred due to the function location that we made a mistake.
Recently we added a new functionality for users to indicate cold files
explicitly through xattr operations (i.e., f2fs_xattr_advise_handler).
This handler should have been added in xattr.c instead of acl.c in order
to avoid an undefined operation like in this case where XATTR is set and
ACL is not set.
b. (config-r8855)

Key config in (config-r8855) is CONFIG_BLOCK.
Obviously, f2fs works on top of the block device so that we should consider
carefully a sort of config dependencies.
The reason why this error was occurred was that f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite() calls
block_page_mkwrite_return() which is enalbed only if CONFIG_BLOCK is set.

This adds roll-forward routines to recover fsynced data.
- F2FS uses basically roll-back model with checkpointing.
- In order to implement fsync(), there are two approaches as follows.
1. A roll-back model with checkpointing at every fsync()
: This is a naive method, but suffers from very low performance.
2. A roll-forward model
: F2FS adopts this model where all the fsynced data should be recovered, which
were written after checkpointing was done. In order to figure out the data,
F2FS keeps a "fsync" mark in direct node blocks. In addition, F2FS remains
the location of next node block in each direct node block for reconstructing
the chain of node blocks during the recovery.
- In order to enhance the performance, F2FS keeps a "dentry" mark also in direct
node blocks. If this is set during the recovery, F2FS replays adding a dentry.

This adds on-demand and background cleaning functions.
- The basic background cleaning policy is trying to do cleaning jobs as much as
possible whenever the system is idle. Once the background cleaning is done,
the cleaner sleeps an amount of time not to interfere with VFS calls. The time
is dynamically adjusted according to the status of whole segments, which is
decreased when the following conditions are satisfied.
. GC is not conducted currently, and
. IO subsystem is idle by checking the number of requets in bdev's request
list, and
. There are enough dirty segments.
Otherwise, the time is increased incrementally until to the maximum time.
Note that, min and max times are 10 secs and 30 secs by default.
- F2FS adopts a default victim selection policy where background cleaning uses
a cost-benefit algorithm, while on-demand cleaning uses a greedy algorithm.
- The method of moving data during the cleaning is slightly different between
background and on-demand cleaning schemes. In the case of background cleaning,
F2FS loads the data, and marks them as dirty. Then, F2FS expects that the data
will be moved by flusher or VM. In the case of on-demand cleaning, F2FS should
move the data right away.
- In order to identify valid blocks in a victim segment, F2FS scans the bitmap
of the segment managed as an SIT entry.

This adds specific functions not only to manage dirty/free segments, SIT pages,
a cache for SIT entries, and summary entries, but also to allocate free blocks
and write three types of pages: data, node, and meta.
- F2FS maintains three types of bitmaps in memory, which indicate free, prefree,
and dirty segments respectively.
- The key information of an SIT entry consists of a segment number, the number
of valid blocks in the segment, a bitmap to identify there-in valid or invalid
blocks.
- An SIT page is composed of a certain range of SIT entries, which is maintained
by the address space of meta_inode.
- To cache SIT entries, a simple array is used. The index for the array is the
segment number.
- A summary entry for data contains the parent node information. A summary entry
for node contains its node offset from the inode.
- F2FS manages information about six active logs and those summary entries in
memory. Whenever one of them is changed, its summary entries are flushed to
its SIT page maintained by the address space of meta_inode.
- This patch adds a default block allocation function which supports heap-based
allocation policy.
- This patch adds core functions to write data, node, and meta pages. Since LFS
basically produces a series of sequential writes, F2FS merges sequential bios
with a single one as much as possible to reduce the IO scheduling overhead.

This adds specific functions to manage NAT pages, a cache for NAT entries, free
nids, direct/indirect node blocks for indexing data, and address space for node
pages.
- The key information of an NAT entry consists of a node id and a block address.
- An NAT page is composed of block addresses covered by a certain range of NAT
entries, which is maintained by the address space of meta_inode.
- A radix tree structure is used to cache NAT entries. The index for the tree
is a node id.
- When there is no free nid, F2FS should scan NAT entries to find new one. In
order to avoid scanning frequently, F2FS manages a list containing a number of
free nids in memory. Only when free nids in the list are exhausted, scanning
process, build_free_nids(), is triggered.
- F2FS has direct and indirect node blocks for indexing data. This patch adds
fuctions related to the node block management such as getting, allocating, and
truncating node blocks to index data.
- In order to cache node blocks in memory, F2FS has a node_inode with an address
space for node pages. This patch also adds the address space operations for
node_inode.

This adds functions required by the checkpoint operations.
Basically, f2fs adopts a roll-back model with checkpoint blocks written in the
CP area. The checkpoint procedure includes as follows.
- write_checkpoint()
1. block_operations() freezes VFS calls.
2. submit cached bios.
3. flush_nat_entries() writes NAT pages updated by dirty NAT entries.
4. flush_sit_entries() writes SIT pages updated by dirty SIT entries.
5. do_checkpoint() writes,
- checkpoint block (#0)
- orphan inode blocks
- summary blocks made by active logs
- checkpoint block (copy of #0)
6. unblock_opeations()
In order to provide an address space for meta pages, f2fs_sb_info has a special
inode, namely meta_inode. This patch also adds the address space operations for
meta_inode.
