commit cfd66bb715fd11fde3338d0660cffa1396adc27d upstream. As Yanming reported in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215914 The root cause is: in a very small sized image, it's very easy to exceed threshold of foreground GC, if we calculate free space and dirty data based on section granularity, in corner case, has_not_enough_free_secs() will always return true, result in deadloop in f2fs_gc(). So this patch refactors has_not_enough_free_secs() as below to fix this issue: 1. calculate needed space based on block granularity, and separate all blocks to two parts, section part, and block part, comparing section part to free section, and comparing block part to free space in openned log. 2. account F2FS_DIRTY_NODES, F2FS_DIRTY_IMETA and F2FS_DIRTY_DENTS as node block consumer; 3. account F2FS_DIRTY_DENTS as data block consumer; Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Ming Yan <yanming@tju.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <chao.yu@oppo.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
