Oh, it's due to the tracepoint timing. In gc_thread_func(), do { wait with wait_ms = 300s decrease_sleep_time(&wait_ms); -> wait_ms = 30s tracepoint with wait_ms = 30s after f2fs_gc() call, wait_ms becomes 300s again. } So, this patch should fix that. >From 84e4214f0868ae77771837d0ed4cc6eff10738ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2015 10:00:53 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: relocate the tracepoint for background_gc Once f2fs_gc is done, wait_ms is changed once more. So, its tracepoint would be located after it.
