From 696c018c7718f5e33e1107da19c4d64a25018878 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namjae Jeon Date: Sun, 16 Jun 2013 09:48:48 +0900 Subject: f2fs: add remount_fs callback support Add the f2fs_remount function call which will be used during the filesystem remounting. This function will help us to change the mount options specific to f2fs. Also modify the f2fs background_gc mount option, which will allow the user to dynamically trun on/off the garbage collection in f2fs based on the background_gc value. If background_gc=on, Garbage collection will be turned off & if background_gc=off, Garbage collection will be truned on. By default the garbage collection is on in f2fs. Change Log: v2: Incorporated the review comments by Gu Zheng. Removing the restore part for VFS flags Updating comments with proper flag conditions Display GC background option as ON/OFF Revised conditions to stop GC in case of remount v1: Initial changes for adding remount_fs callback support.
