[ Upstream commit e1175f02291141bbd924fc578299305fcde35855 ] Now, fallocate() on a pinned file only allocates blocks which aligns to segment rather than section, so GC may try to migrate pinned file's block, and after several times of failure, pinned file's block could be migrated to other place, however user won't be aware of such condition, and then old obsolete block address may be readed/written incorrectly. To avoid such condition, let's try to allocate pinned file's blocks with section alignment.

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. 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.
