From: Tang Junhui <tang.junhui@xxxxxxxxxx> I try to execute the following command to trigger gc thread: [root@localhost internal]# echo 1 > trigger_gc But it does not work, I debug the code in gc_should_run(), It works only if in invalidating or sectors_to_gc < 0. So set sectors_to_gc to -1 to meet the condition when we trigger gc by manual command.
