Thanks for the info.
Which scenario do we need to see ro or offline zones? Can we expect some when mounting the filesystem? Or, does setting a zone to readonly happen in runtime? If we detect them at mount time like former one, we need to treat the discarded blocks in the zone with unusable space, and set allocation bits to avoid GC. > > Best regards, > Tim Walker > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list > Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
