Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "In this round, key enhancements focus on reducing inode management memory overhead, introducing resizable tail sections with unified pinned allocation, and boosting I/O throughput via parallel multi-device flushes and asynchronous f2fs_write_end_io() execution.

Alongside these features, critical bug fixes resolve folio race conditions, lingering dirty flags, dentry and block counter leaks, and potential deadloops in f2fs_fsync_node_pages(). Additional stability patches address error-path handling across symlink, sync, and rename/unlink operations, prevent pinned file fragmentation, and correct segment migration and free section accounting in free_segment_range.

f2fs: support resizable tail section and unify pinned allocation

2026-08-27T04:47:36+00:00

Currently, zoned block devices restrict pinned file allocations to conventional zones at the beginning of the storage (before first_seq_zone_segno), triggering range GC when conventional space is exhausted. On regular block devices, when preparing for future online filesystem resizing (e.g. partition shrinking), pinned files must not be allocated in the tail area that will be truncated, as pinned files cannot be relocated by GC. Specifying the resizable tail area size (in sections) allows uniform mount configuration across devices of different storage capacities. To support this, introduce a unified `pinned_area_max_secno` boundary abstraction in `f2fs_sb_info`: 1. Add `-o resizable_tail_secno=%u` mount option to specify the number of sections at the tail of the filesystem reserved for resizing. 2. In `f2fs_fill_super()`, initialize `sbi->pinned_area_max_secno` as: min(MAIN_SECS(sbi) - resizable_tail_sec, zoned_max_sec). 3. In `get_new_segment()`, restrict segment allocation for pinned files (`pinning == true`) to `0 .. sbi->pinned_area_max_secno - 1`. If no free section is available in the pinned area, return -EAGAIN. 4. In `f2fs_allocate_pinning_section()`, unify the range GC trigger to run `f2fs_gc_range()` up to `sbi->pinned_area_max_secno` whenever `sbi->pinned_area_max_secno < MAIN_SECS(sbi)` and allocation returns -EAGAIN. 5. Expose `/sys/fs/f2fs//pinned_area_max_secno` as a read-only sysfs node. Signed-off-by: Daeho Jeong Signed-off-by: Sunmin Jeong Reviewed-by: Wenjie Qi Reviewed-by: Chao Yu Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim

ceph: force a cap message when a deferred revoke can't be acked immediately

2026-08-26T17:57:29+00:00

When the MDS revokes capabilities, handle_cap_grant() normally guarantees a response by setting `CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH_FORCE` (see commit 31634d7597d8 ("ceph: force sending a cap update msg back to MDS for revoke op")), so ceph_check_caps() sends a cap message even if the client would otherwise decide it has nothing to do. That guarantee is skipped whenever the revoke has to be deferred (via revoke_wait): revoking Fb while dirty data is still buffered (writeback is queued first) or revoking Fc while pages are cached (async invalidation is queued first). In those cases, the ack is left to the deferred completion (ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs() after writeback, or the invalidate worker after invalidation); both of which call ceph_check_caps(ci,0) i.e. without `CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH_FORCE`. Nothing gets sent under one of the following conditions: - the inode is retaining caps because the file was used recently (file_wanted != 0; retain |= CEPH_CAP_ANY) - the revoked cap is still used because the page was re-cached (e.g. a file being re-read) - the MDS has meanwhile re-granted, so `issued==implemented` and the client sees nothing being revoked The client then never emits the cap message which the MDS is waiting for. The MDS blocks on the revoke indefinitely and logs, for minutes or hours: client.NNN isn't responding to mclientcaps(revoke), ino 0x... pending pAsxLsXsxFsxcrwb issued pAsxLsXsxFsxcrwb, sent 964.899182 seconds ago The client-side state at that point shows the full cap set still issued, nothing in the revoking/flushing sets. Thus nothing gets sent. This patch fixes it by remembering that a forced response is expected. When a revoke is deferred, set `CEPH_I_FLUSH_FORCE` on the inode. ceph_check_caps() replays it as `CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH_FORCE`, so whichever path re-checks the inode next (the writeback/invalidate completion, the delayed worker, or any other caller) is guaranteed to send a cap message to the MDS. __prep_cap() clears the flag once a message is actually built. This is the deferred-path counterpart of the existing `CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH_FORCE` handling; a normal (non-deferred) revoke still forces the response inline as before.

ceph: fix leaked inode reference on writeback abort at umount

2026-08-26T17:57:28+00:00

ceph_dirty_folio() takes a wrbuffer claim on each newly dirtied folio: it bumps i_wrbuffer_ref (taking an ihold() on the 0->1 transition) and attaches the snap_context to folio->private. That claim is released only by ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs(), which for a submitted write runs from writepages_finish(). In ceph_submit_write(), if ceph_inc_osd_stopping_blocker() fails -- which happens during umount -- the request is aborted before submission: the already-collected folios are only redirtied and unlocked, so writepages_finish() never runs and the claim is leaked. redirty_page_for_writepage() -> folio_redirty_for_writepage() -> filemap_dirty_folio() sets PG_dirty directly and does not go through ->dirty_folio, so ceph_dirty_folio() is not re-entered to rebalance it. Because every subsequent writeback also fails the osd_stopping_blocker, i_wrbuffer_ref never returns to 0, the ihold() is never dropped, and the inode cannot be evicted: VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of ceph kernel BUG at fs/super.c:650! Release the orphaned claim in the abort path before redirtying, via ceph_undo_wrbuffer_claim(): detach the snap_context, drop the wrbuffer reference (letting i_wrbuffer_ref reach 0 and iput() the inode), and drop the snap_context reference -- i.e. do what writepages_finish() would have done for these never-submitted folios. Only the locked_pages entries are undone; folios still in the fbatch were never dirty-cleared by this call (folio_clear_dirty_for_io() is the ownership-transfer point, and a successful move NULLs the fbatch slot), so they hold no claim this call owns.

libceph: remove ceph_put_page_vector()

ceph_put_page_vector() was paired with ceph_get_direct_page_vector(), which was removed in commit 97a385e55829 ("libceph: remove ceph_get_direct_page_vector()"). Its only remaining caller, finish_netfs_read(), uses it to put a page vector allocated with iov_iter_get_pages_alloc2(), which is confusing. Open-code the put_page() loop and kvfree() there instead. The caller passed dirty = false, so this also removes the dead dirty branch and with it a call to the deprecated set_page_dirty_lock().
