PATCH 1/1 f2fs: support file defragment

This patch introduces a new ioctl F2FS_IOC_DEFRAGMENT to support file defragment in a specified range of regular file.

This ioctl can be used in very limited workload: if user expects high sequential read performance in randomly written file, this interface can be used for defragmentation, after that file can be written as continuous as possible in the device.

Meanwhile, it has side-effect, it will make holes in segments where blocks located originally, so it's better to trigger GC to eliminate fragment in segments.

What about this?

	for_each_extents(extent_info) {

		set_page_dirty(page);

	filemap_fdatawrite();

How about using f2fs_fiemap to get the extent information?

Hmm, if we use f2fs_fiemap, we will encounter unneeded memset & copy_to_user in fiemap_fill_next_extent, and struct fiemap_extent is designed for using in usersapce, fi_extents_start in struct fiemap_extent has __user * in this type, we'd better to avoid allocating such type in kernel, right? otherwise it looks very weird. So how about keeping using f2fs_map_blocks? as its call path is shortest and has no copying overhead.

Later, ->writepage will handle this?

Right, my intention here is that I hope defragmenting will be executed in a low fragmented partition, it will be good that finally blocks are locating in continuous segments, and also this can decrease the chance to writeback pages in SSR mode.

Moreover we should check IPU policy to insure defragment will actually works.

Subject: Re: [PATCH] f2fs: support file defragment

Hi,

Quoted 48 lines · Chao Yu

This patch introduces a new ioctl F2FS_IOC_DEFRAGMENT to support file defragment in a specified range of regular file.

This ioctl can be used in very limited workload: if user expects high sequential read performance in randomly written file, this interface can be used for defragmentation, after that file can be written as continuous as possible in the device.

Meanwhile, it has side-effect, it will make holes in segments where blocks located originally, so it's better to trigger GC to eliminate fragment in segments.

How about using f2fs_fiemap to get the extent information?

Quoted 6 lines

Hmm, if we use f2fs_fiemap, we will encounter unneeded memset & copy_to_user in fiemap_fill_next_extent, and struct fiemap_extent is designed for using in usersapce, fi_extents_start in struct fiemap_extent has __user * in this type, we'd better to avoid allocating such type in kernel, right? otherwise it looks very weird. So how about keeping using f2fs_map_blocks? as its call path is shortest and has no copying overhead.

Agreed. :)
