f2fs-for-6-6-rc1
f2fs update for 6.6-rc1 In this cycle, we don't have a highlighted feature enhancement, but mostly have fixed issues mainly in two parts: 1) zoned block device, 2) compression support. For zoned block device, we've tried to improve the power-off recovery flow as much as possible. For compression, we found some corner cases caused by wrong compression policy and logics. Other than them, there were some reverts and stat corrections. Bug fix: - use finish zone command when closing a zone - check zone type before sending async reset zone command - fix to assign compress_level for lz4 correctly - fix error path of f2fs_submit_page_read() - don't {,de}compress non-full cluster - send small discard commands during checkpoint back - flush inode if atomic file is aborted - correct to account gc/cp stats And, there are minor bug fixes, avoiding false lockdep warning, and clean-ups.

f2fs-for-6.5-rc1
f2fs update for 6.5-rc1 In this cycle, we've mainly investigated the zoned block device support along with patches such as correcting write pointers between f2fs and storage, adding asynchronous zone reset flow, and managing the number of open zones. Other than them, f2fs adds another mount option, "errors=x" to specify how to handle when it detects an unexpected behavior at runtime. Enhancement: - support errors=remount-ro|continue|panic mountoption - enforce some inode flag policies - allow .tmp compression given extensions - add some ioctls to manage the f2fs compression - improve looped node chain flow - avoid issuing small-sized discard commands during checkpoint - implement an asynchronous zone reset Bug fix: - fix deadlock in xattr and inode page lock - fix and add sanity check in some error paths - fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference f2fs_write_end_io() along with put_super - set proper flags to quota files - fix potential deadlock due to unpaired node_write lock use - fix over-estimating free section during FG GC - fix the wrong condition to determine atomic context As usual, also there are a number of patches having code refactoring and minor clean-ups.
