commit d927ccfccb009ede24448d69c08b12e7c8a6979b upstream. The kernel writes to swap files on f2fs directly without the assistance of the filesystem. This direct write by kernel can be non-sequential even when the f2fs is in LFS mode. Such non-sequential write conflicts with the LFS semantics. Especially when f2fs is set up on zoned block devices, the non-sequential write causes unaligned write command errors. To avoid the non-sequential writes to swap files, prevent swap file activation when the filesystem is in LFS mode.

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.
