f2fs doesn't allow abuse on atomic write class interface, so except limiting in-mem pages' total memory usage capacity, we need to limit atomic-write usage as well when filesystem is seriously fragmented, otherwise we may run into infinite loop during foreground GC because target blocks in victim segment are belong to atomic opened file for long time. Now, we will detect failure due to atomic write in foreground GC, if the count exceeds threshold, we will drop all atomic written data in cache, by this, I expect it can keep our system running safely to prevent Dos attack. In addition, his patch adds to show GC skip information in debugfs, now it just shows count of skipped caused by atomic write.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
