f2fs: reduce expensive checkpoint trigger frequency
[ Upstream commit aaf8c0b9ae042494cb4585883b15c1332de77840 ] We may trigger high frequent checkpoint for below case: 1. mkdir /mnt/dir1; set dir1 encrypted 2. touch /mnt/file1; fsync /mnt/file1 3. mkdir /mnt/dir2; set dir2 encrypted 4. touch /mnt/file2; fsync /mnt/file2 ... Although, newly created dir and file are not related, due to commit bbf156f7 ("f2fs: fix lost xattrs of directories"), we will trigger checkpoint whenever fsync() comes after a new encrypted dir created. In order to avoid such performance regression issue, let's record an entry including directory's ino in global cache whenever we update directory's xattr data, and then triggerring checkpoint() only if xattr metadata of target file's parent was updated. This patch updates to cover below no encryption case as well: 1) parent is checkpointed 2) set_xattr(dir) w/ new xnid 3) create(file) 4) fsync(file) Change-Id: Id7c4c5b70c239458b74f92edca537dd844b0be6f Fixes: bbf156f7 ("f2fs: fix lost xattrs of directories") Reported-by:wangzijie <wangzijie1@honor.com> Reported-by:
