In order to avoid that, reuse nm_i::available_nids for accounting free nids and make nid allocation and counting being atomical during node creation.

2016-11-25f2fs: fix an infinite loop when flush nodes in cpYunlei He
Thread A Thread B - write_checkpoint - block_operations -blk_start_plug -sync_node_pages - f2fs_do_sync_file - fsync_node_pages - f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback Thread A wait for global F2FS_DIRTY_NODES decreased to zero, it start a plug list, some requests have been added to this list. Thread B lock one dirty node page, and wait this page write back. But this page has been in plug list of thread A with PG_writeback flag. Thread A keep on running and its plug list has no chance to finish, so it seems a deadlock between cp and fsync path. This patch add a wait on page write back before set node page dirty to avoid this problem.

2016-11-23f2fs: split free nid listChao Yu
During free nid allocation, in order to do preallocation, we will tag free nid entry as allocated one and still leave it in free nid list, for other allocators who want to grab free nids, it needs to traverse the free nid list for lookup. It becomes overhead in scenario of allocating free nid intensively by multithreads. This patch splits free nid list to two list: {free,alloc}_nid_list, to keep free nids and preallocated free nids separately, after that, traverse latency will be gone, besides split nid_cnt for separate statistic. Additionally, introduce __insert_nid_to_list and __remove_nid_from_list for cleanup.

2016-11-23f2fs: exclude free nids building and allocationChao Yu
During nid allocation, it needs to exclude building and allocating flow of free nids, this is because while building free nid cache, there are two steps: a) load free nids from unused nat entries in NAT pages, b) update free nid cache by checking nat journal. The two steps should be atomical, otherwise an used nid can be allocated as free one after a) and before b). This patch adds missing lock which covers build_free_nids in unlock_operation and f2fs_balance_fs_bg to avoid that.

In sync_node_pages, we won't check and commit last merged pages in private bio cache of f2fs, as these pages were taged as writeback, someone who is waiting for writebacking of the page will be blocked until the cache was committed by someone else.

Previously, we only support global fault injection configuration, so that when we configure type/rate of fault injection through sysfs, mount option, it will influence all f2fs partition which is being used. It is not make sence, since it will be not convenient if developer want to test separated partitions with different fault injection rate/type simultaneously, also it's not possible to enable fault injection in one partition and disable fault injection in other one. >From now on, we move global configuration of fault injection in module into per-superblock, hence injection testing can be more flexible.

Instead of the fallback releasing page path, it provides better performance for memory compaction, CMA and other users of memory page migrating. For dirty pages, there is no need to write back first when migrating. For an atomic written page before committing, we can migrate the page and update the related 'inmem_pages' list at the same time.

For callers that don't special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_ values makes more sense.

Commit aaf9607516ed38825268515ef4d773289a44f429 ("f2fs: check node page contents all the time") pointed out that "sometimes it was reported that its contents was missing", so it checks the page's mapping and contents. When "nid != nid_of_node(page)", ERR_PTR(-EIO) will be returned to the caller. However, commit e1c51b9f1df2f9efc2ec11488717e40cd12015f9 ("f2fs: clean up node page updating flow") moves "nid != nid_of_node(page)" test to "f2fs_bug_on(sbi, nid != nid_of_node(page))", this will return a wrong page to the caller when F2FS_CHECK_FS is off when "sometimes it was reported that its contents was missing" happens.
