Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] f2fs: introduce checkpoint=merge mount option
Date
From: Daeho Jeong <daehojeong@google.com>

We've added a new mount option "checkpoint=merge", which creates a
kernel daemon and makes it to merge concurrent checkpoint requests as
much as possible to eliminate redundant checkpoint issues. Plus, we
can eliminate the sluggish issue caused by slow checkpoint operation
when the checkpoint is done in a process context in a cgroup having
low i/o budget and cpu shares, and The below verification result
explains this.
The basic idea has come from https://opensource.samsung.com.

[Verification]
Android Pixel Device(ARM64, 7GB RAM, 256GB UFS)
Create two I/O cgroups (fg w/ weight 100, bg w/ wight 20)
Set "strict_guarantees" to "1" in BFQ tunables

In "fg" cgroup,
- thread A => trigger 1000 checkpoint operations
"for i in `seq 1 1000`; do touch test_dir1/file; fsync test_dir1;
done"
- thread B => gererating async. I/O
"fio --rw=write --numjobs=1 --bs=128k --runtime=3600 --time_based=1
--filename=test_img --name=test"

In "bg" cgroup,
- thread C => trigger repeated checkpoint operations
"echo $$ > /dev/blkio/bg/tasks; while true; do touch test_dir2/file;
fsync test_dir2; done"

We've measured thread A's execution time.
