f2fs: allow out-place-update for direct IO in LFS mode Normally, DIO uses in-pllace-update, but in LFS mode, f2fs doesn't allow triggering any in-place-update writes, so we fallback direct write to buffered write, result in bad performance of large size write. This patch adds to support triggering out-place-update for direct IO to enhance its performance. Note that it needs to exclude direct read IO during direct write, since new data writing to new block address will no be valid until write finished. storage: zram time xfs_io -f -d /mnt/f2fs/file -c "pwrite 0 1073741824" -c "fsync" Before: real 0m13.061s user 0m0.327s sys 0m12.486s After: real 0m6.448s user 0m0.228s sys 0m6.212s Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
