v4: Rearrange the previous three versions.
The following scenario could lead to data block override by mistake.
TASK A | TASK kworker | TASK B | TASK C
| | |
open | | |
write | | |
close | | |
| f2fs_write_data_pages | |
| f2fs_write_cache_pages | |
| f2fs_outplace_write_data | |
| f2fs_allocate_data_block (get block in seg S, | |
| S is full, and only | |
| have this valid data | |
| block) | |
| allocate_segment | |
| locate_dirty_segment (mark S as PRE) | |
| f2fs_submit_page_write (submit but is not | |
| written on dev) | |
unlink | | |
iput_final | | |
f2fs_drop_inode | | |
f2fs_truncate | | |
(not evict) | | |
| | write_checkpoint |
| | flush merged bio but not wait file data writeback |
| | set_prefree_as_free (mark S as FREE) |
| | | update NODE/DATA
| | | allocate_segment (select S)
| writeback done | |
So we need to guarantee io complete before truncate inode in f2fs_drop_inode.

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.
