Do you need this in select_policy(), either?

IMO, for this mode, I prefer to disable background GC and just use newly
written userdata to fragment image, so I think it's fine to keep it as it is
here.

Like,
         if (f2fs_need_rand_seg(sbi))
                 p->offset = prandom_u32() % (MAIN_SECS(sbi) *
sbi->segs_per_sec);
         else if (f2fs_need_seq_seg(sbi))
                 p->offset = 0;

One more concern... we'd better to save fragment_remained_hole as well
as fragment_remained_chunk,  otherwise, if fragment_chunk_size +
fragment_hole_size > 512, fragment hole will be truncated to 512 -
fragment_chunk_size due to we won't create hole with enough size as
seg->next_blkoff has crossed end of current segment.


Sorry, I don't get it. You mean making fragment_remained_hole as a
global variable?

As a per curseg field.

Maybe, we run into the same race condition issue you told before for
fragment_remained_chunk.
Could you clarify this more?

e.g.

F2FS_OPTION(sbi).fs_mode = FS_MODE_FRAGMENT_FIXED_BLK
fragment_chunk_size = 384
fragment_hole_size = 384

When creating hole:

- f2fs_allocate_data_block
 - __refresh_next_blkoff
   chunk locates in [0, 383] of current segment
   seg->next_blkoff = 384
   sbi->fragment_remained_chunk = 0
   then we will reset sbi->fragment_remained_chunk to 384
   and move seg->next_blkoff forward to 768 (384 + 384)
 - __has_curseg_space() returns false
 - allocate_segment() allocates new current segment

So, for such case that hole may cross two segments, hole size may be truncated
to left size of previous segment.

Thanks,


Thanks,
