11 daysf2fs: cache: wake up f2fs_writeback when exceeding thresholdChao Yu
This patch introduces cache_wb_dirty_threshold and cache_wb_total_threshold sysfs nodes under /sys/fs/f2fs/<disk>/, and wakes up the f2fs_writeback kthread when dirty meta/node caches exceed cache_wb_dirty_threshold and total cached entries exceed cache_wb_total_threshold; a zero threshold disables the corresponding check. By default, cache_wb_dirty_threshold is 8192 and cache_wb_total_threshold is 0. If both thresholds are zero, f2fs_writeback only runs periodically, unless checkpoint is disabled, as nothing else will flush dirty caches then. f2fs_writeback won't be woken up unless there are enough dirty caches for f2fs_write_{meta,node}_caches() to gather. And if thresholds are exceeded but one round fails to write any caches, e.g. due to cp_error, freezing, frozen fs, or lock contention, threshold based wakeup is throttled until a later round makes progress, in order to avoid busy-looping. To detect progress, introduce a new parameter for f2fs_write_{meta,node}_caches() and f2fs_writeback_node_caches() to return the number of caches submitted for writeback. Thanks Daeho and Wenjie for help and suggestion on this patch.

2026-10-07f2fs: cache: shrink meta and node caches in f2fs_balance_fs_bgChao Yu
This patch introduces META_BLOCK and NODE_BLOCK memory types to monitor meta and node cache usage against available free memory, and integrates them into f2fs_balance_fs_bg(). In f2fs_balance_fs_bg(), shrink 128 clean cached blocks of each types when memory is insufficient (cache memory usage is larger than 50% of low memory).

This patch exposes per-cache memory usage (entry struct memory vs. cached block buffer memory) for meta, node, and compress caches under the memory section in debugfs: - meta entry: xxx KB, meta cache: xxx KB - node entry: xxx KB, node cache: xxx KB - compress entry: xxx KB, compress cache: xxx KB Reviewed-by: Zhiguo Niu <zhiguo.niu@unisoc.com> Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
2026-09-18f2fs: cache: initialize compress cacheChao Yu
This patch introduces compress_blocks in f2fs_sb_info structure, initializes and destroys the compress cache during filesystem mount and unmount. It adds an ino union field in struct f2fs_cached_block (sharing space with writeback linkage for zero memory overhead) to track per-inode cached blocks, and registers compress cache into the memory shrinker.

2026-09-18f2fs: cache: use node cacheChao Yu
This patch migrates F2FS node block caching from the fake VFS inode page cache (sbi->node_inode) to node cache (sbi->node_blocks). It updates node related helpers to use node cache APIs and reference to struct f2fs_cached_block, and removes sbi->node_inode, especially, unifies inline and regular dentry block handling via struct f2fs_dentry_block_ref.

This patch migrates F2FS meta block caching from the fake VFS inode page cache (sbi->meta_inode) to meta cache (sbi->meta_blocks). It converts CP, SIT, NAT, SSA, recovery, and GC metadata I/O paths to operate on struct f2fs_cached_block instead of folio, and removes sbi->meta_inode.

2026-09-18f2fs: cache: introduce writeback threadChao Yu
This patch introduces a background writeback kthread (f2fs_writeback-x:y) to periodically flush dirty metadata cache entries with a default interval of 5 seconds. It manages thread lifecycle across mount, unmount, and remount (rw/ro) transitions. It introduces a sysfs entry /sys/fs/f2fs/<disk>/cache_wb_interval to control writeback interval.

2026-09-18f2fs: cache: introduce shrinkerChao Yu
This patch integrates the metadata cache into the F2FS memory shrinker subsystem to reclaim clean, unreferenced cached blocks under memory pressure. It implements f2fs_shrink_cache() using a 3-phase cache reclamin method: 1. isolate clean entries from lru list 2. truncate from radix tree under lock 3. splice un-reclaimed entries back And hooks the new interface into f2fs_shrink_count() and f2fs_shrink_scan().

This patch introduces the core metadata block caching infrastructure to manage f2fs metadata independently of the page cache. It implements: - core cache APIs: get, create, put, drop, backed by a radix tree and a single global LRU list. - support multiple status of cached block: LOCKED, UPTODATE, DIRTY, WRITEBACK, INLINE. - internal bio based read/write helpers with adjacent block vector merging.
