<id>4c8ff7095bef64fc47e996a938f7d57f9e077da3</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch tries to support compression in f2fs.

- New term named cluster is defined as basic unit of compression, file can
be divided into multiple clusters logically. One cluster includes 4 &lt;&lt; n
(n &gt;= 0) logical pages, compression size is also cluster size, each of
cluster can be compressed or not.

- In cluster metadata layout, one special flag is used to indicate cluster
is compressed one or normal one, for compressed cluster, following metadata
maps cluster to [1, 4 &lt;&lt; n - 1] physical blocks, in where f2fs stores
data including compress header and compressed data.

- In order to eliminate write amplification during overwrite, F2FS only
support compression on write-once file, data can be compressed only when
all logical blocks in file are valid and cluster compress ratio is lower
than specified threshold.

- To enable compression on regular inode, there are three ways:
* chattr +c file
* chattr +c dir; touch dir/file
* mount w/ -o compress_extension=ext; touch file.ext

Compress metadata layout:
                             [Dnode Structure]
             +-----------------------------------------------+
             | cluster 1 | cluster 2 | ......... | cluster N |

C: compress cluster flag
V: valid block address
N: NEW_ADDR

One cluster contain 4 blocks

by allocating fully valid 2MB segment.

Check free segments by has_not_enough_free_secs() with large budget.

Policy - Foreground GC, LFS and greedy GC mode.

Under this policy, f2fs_gc() loops forever to GC as it doesn't have
enough free segements to proceed and thus it keeps calling gc_more
for the same victim segment.  This can happen if the selected victim
segment could not be GC'd due to failed blkaddr validity check i.e.
is_alive() returns false for the blocks set in current validity map.

Fix this by keeping track of such invalid segments and skip those
segments for selection in get_victim_by_default() to avoid endless
GC loop under such error scenarios. Currently, add this logic under
CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS to be able to root cause the issue in debug
version.

f2fs uses EFAULT as error number to indicate filesystem is corrupted
all the time, but generic filesystems use EUCLEAN for such condition,
we need to change to follow others.

This patch adds two new macros as below to wrap more generic error
code macros, and spread them in code.
