Ah, I got it.

Step of enabling compressed inode is not correct, we should touch an empty
file, and then use 'chattr +c' on that file to enable compression, otherwise
the race condition could be complicated to handle. So we need below diff to
disallow setting compression flag on an non-empty file:

diff --git a/fs/f2fs/file.c b/fs/f2fs/file.c
index 8a422400e824..b462db7898fd 100644

                        set_compress_context(inode);
                }

Why not:

        if (inode->i_size)
                return -EINVAL;

Yeah, I noticed that after replying this email, I've prepared the new patch
which including the i_size check.

Thanks for noticing this.

Thanks,
