[PATCH 2/2] f2fs: introduce gc_urgent mode for background GC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch adds a sysfs entry to control urgent mode for background GC.
If this is set, background GC thread conducts GC with gc_urgent_sleep_time
all the time.
