[ Upstream commit e3b49ea36802053f312013fd4ccb6e59920a9f76 ]
Encrypted pages during GC are read and cached in META_MAPPING.
However, due to cached pages in META_MAPPING, there is an issue where
newly written pages are lost by IPU or DIO writes.
Thread A - f2fs_gc() Thread B
/* phase 3 */
down_write(i_gc_rwsem)
ra_data_block() ---- (a)
up_write(i_gc_rwsem)
f2fs_direct_IO() :
- down_read(i_gc_rwsem)

- up_read(i_gc_rwsem)
/* phase 4 */

move_data_block() ---- (c)
up_write(i_gc_rwsem)
(a) In phase 3 of f2fs_gc(), up-to-date page is read from storage and
cached in META_MAPPING.
(b) In thread B, writing new data by IPU or DIO write on same blkaddr as
read in (a). cached page in META_MAPPING become out-dated.
(c) In phase 4 of f2fs_gc(), out-dated page in META_MAPPING is copied to
new blkaddr. In conclusion, the newly written data in (b) is lost.
To address this issue, invalidating pages in META_MAPPING before IPU or
DIO 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.
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.
