[PATCH 2/2] f2fs: introduce max_io_bytes, a sysfs entry, to limit bio size

From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Thu Dec 03 2020 - 15:56:34 EST


This patch adds max_io_bytes to limit bio size when f2fs tries to merge
consecutive IOs. This can give a testing point to split out bios and check
end_io handles those bios correctly. This is used to capture a recent bug
on the decompression and fsverity flow.

Description: Give a way to change iostat_period time. 3secs by default.
The new iostat trace gives stats gap given the period.

+Description: This gives a control to limit the bio size in f2fs.
+ Default is zero, which will follow underlying block layer limit,
+ whereas, if it has a certain bytes value, f2fs won't submit a
+ bio larger than that size.
