This patch supports to migrate swapfile in aligned write mode during
swapon in order to keep swapfile being aligned to section as much as
possible, then pinned swapfile will locates fully filled section which
may not affected by GC.

However, for the case that swapfile's size is not aligned to section
size, it will still leave last extent in file's tail as unaligned due
to its size is smaller than section size, like case #2.

case #1
xfs_io -f /mnt/f2fs/file -c "pwrite 0 4M" -c "fsync"

Update the logging uses that have unnecessary newlines as the f2fs_printk
function and so its f2fs_&lt;level&gt; macro callers already adds one.

This allows searching single line logging entries with an easier grep and
also avoids unnecessary blank lines in the logging.

Miscellanea:

o Coalesce formats
o Align to open parenthesis

<title>f2fs: restructure f2fs page.private layout</title>
<updated>2021-05-14T18:22:08+00:00</updated>

<id>b763f3bedc2da2edf81bba550430847f561eae0e</id>
<content type='text'>
Restruct f2fs page private layout for below reasons:

There are some cases that f2fs wants to set a flag in a page to
indicate a specified status of page:
a) page is in transaction list for atomic write
b) page contains dummy data for aligned write
c) page is migrating for GC
d) page contains inline data for inline inode flush
e) page belongs to merkle tree, and is verified for fsverity
f) page is dirty and has filesystem/inode reference count for writeback
g) page is temporary and has decompress io context reference for compression

There are existed places in page structure we can use to store
f2fs private status/data:
- page.flags: PG_checked, PG_private
- page.private

However it was a mess when we using them, which may cause potential
confliction:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		-1		set				+1
b)		-2		set
c), d), e)					set
f)		0		set				+1
g)		pointer		set

The other problem is page.flags has no free slot, if we can avoid set
zero to page.private and set PG_private flag, then we use non-zero value
to indicate PG_private status, so that we may have chance to reclaim
PG_private slot for other usage. [1]

The other concern is f2fs has bad scalability in aspect of indicating
more page status.

So in this patch, let's restructure f2fs' page.private as below to
solve above issues:

Layout A: lowest bit should be 1
| bit0 = 1 | bit1 | bit2 | ... | bit MAX | private data .... |
 bit 0	PAGE_PRIVATE_NOT_POINTER
 bit 1	PAGE_PRIVATE_ATOMIC_WRITE
 bit 2	PAGE_PRIVATE_DUMMY_WRITE
 bit 3	PAGE_PRIVATE_ONGOING_MIGRATION
 bit 4	PAGE_PRIVATE_INLINE_INODE
 bit 5	PAGE_PRIVATE_REF_RESOURCE
 bit 6-	f2fs private data

Layout B: lowest bit should be 0
 page.private is a wrapped pointer.

After the change:
		page.private	PG_private	PG_checked	page._refcount (+1 at most)
a)		11		set				+1
b)		101		set				+1
c)		1001		set				+1
d)		10001		set				+1
e)						set
f)		100001		set				+1
g)		pointer		set				+1

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we added a new mount option, "checkpoint_merge", which
  introduces a kernel thread dealing with the f2fs checkpoints. Once we
  start to manage the IO priority along with blk-cgroup, the checkpoint
  operation can be processed in a lower priority under the process
  context. Since the checkpoint holds all the filesystem operations, we
  give a higher priority to the checkpoint thread all the time.

  Enhancements:
   - introduce gc_merge mount option to introduce a checkpoint thread
   - improve to run discard thread efficiently
   - allow modular compression algorithms
   - expose # of overprivision segments to sysfs
   - expose runtime compression stat to sysfs

  Bug fixes:
   - fix OOB memory access by the node id lookup
   - avoid touching checkpointed data in the checkpoint-disabled mode
   - fix the resizing flow to avoid kernel panic and race conditions
   - fix block allocation issues on pinned files
   - address some swapfile issues
   - fix hugtask problem and kernel panic during atomic write operations
   - don't start checkpoint thread in RO

  And, we've cleaned up some kernel coding style and build warnings. In
  addition, we fixed some minor race conditions and error handling
  routines"

   - fix hugtask problem and kernel panic during atomic write operations
   - don't start checkpoint thread in RO

  And, we've cleaned up some kernel coding style and build warnings. In
  addition, we fixed some minor race conditions and error handling
  routines"

If filesystem has cp_error or need_fsck status, let's drop inplace IO
to avoid further corruption of fs data.

As we did for other cases, in fix_curseg_write_pointer(), let's
use wrapped f2fs_allocate_new_section() instead of native
allocate_segment_by_default(), by this way, it fixes to cover
segment allocation with curseg_lock and sentry_lock.

In f2fs_put_page, we access page-&gt;mapping is NULL.
The root cause is:
In some cases, the page refcount and ATOMIC_WRITTEN_PAGE
flag miss set for page-priavte flag has been set.
We add f2fs_bug_on like this:

f2fs_register_inmem_page()
{
	...
	f2fs_set_page_private(page, ATOMIC_WRITTEN_PAGE);

	f2fs_bug_on(F2FS_I_SB(inode), !IS_ATOMIC_WRITTEN_PAGE(page));
	...
}

The bug on stack follow link this:
PC is at f2fs_register_inmem_page+0x238/0x2b4
LR is at f2fs_register_inmem_page+0x2a8/0x2b4

vfs_write+0xe8/0x19c
SyS_pwrite64+0x78/0xb8

To fix this issue, let's add page refcount add page-priavte flag.
The page-private flag is not cleared and needs further analysis.
