* [f2fs-dev] [PATCH v6 00/11] f2fs: prepare metadata layouts for runtime block sizes

F2FS currently describes several on-disk metadata layouts and filesystem
geometry values with constants derived from PAGE_SIZE or a fixed 4KB block
size. This series derives those values from the mounted filesystem's block
size instead, as preparation for supporting filesystem blocks smaller than
PAGE_SIZE.

The patches initialize sb_info early, describe the SIT, NAT, orphan, dentry,
node, and xattr layouts dynamically, parameterize sector/byte/block
conversion helpers, and derive node-tree geometry at runtime.

This series does not relax the block-size mount check or enable subpage I/O.
It is intended to be a behavior-preserving refactoring for currently
supported 4KB-block filesystems.

Changes since v5:
- no code changes
- send each diff as a base64-encoded text/x-patch attachment because Gmail's
  outgoing transport reflowed long lines in inline text/plain bodies
- verified that an actual received raw message applies with git am and
  produces the expected tree; the list-side copy of patch 01/11 will be
  checked before completing the series

v5:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-f2fs-devel/CAH=xXfH7TPGt-zKXvJRNTgGDZKa1Xoq_sF3-WGs5kdsQLuYn4g@mail.gmail.com/

Changes since v4:
- no code changes
- resend with CRLF-canonicalized RFC822 messages; the delivered inline patch
  was still reflowed by Gmail's outgoing transport

v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-f2fs-devel/CAH=xXfHWPg6qRwW+N2ziH1cvG3OD3wJc1z_Tm04MtFCpqYmQFg@mail.gmail.com/

Changes since v3:
- no code changes
- resend with git send-email because the previous mail-sending path produced
  hard-wrapped hunk headers in the delivered messages

v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-f2fs-devel/CAH=xXfEFL7w7nsU3xjNubKJ1soYMqT-DbJBuyzfEX4Rv3rdFEA@mail.gmail.com/

Changes since v2:
- use DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() for flexible arrays that are alone in a struct or
  used in a union, fixing the reported m68k GCC build failures
- use F2FS_BLK_ALIGN() in f2fs_sec_trim_file() to avoid a runtime 64-bit
  division and an unresolved __divdi3 reference on 32-bit SH
- no other code changes

Changes since v1:
- rebase onto f2fs/dev at c966d29e01bb
- drop the unrelated free-NID underflow fix from this series
- split the preparatory changes into 11 focused patches
- initialize sb_info earlier and describe the xattr layout explicitly
- separate sector, byte/block, and block-size macro parameterization
- update commit messages and address checkpatch warnings

v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-f2fs-devel/CAH=xXfHWW_J92z3YgvoLSx8+z6rekq=p2kiP15KE9=2+Ju2RjQ@mail.gmail.com/
v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-f2fs-devel/CAH=xXfFVAwQ3r_NdUDtmXhtg6Lw8kDWoNTzGL5oy4mwHMsJLJw@mail.gmail.com/

Tested with:
- x86_64 W=1 F2FS build at every patch
- arm64 16KB-page W=1 F2FS build at the series tip
- m68k W=1 F2FS builds with the two reported randconfigs at the affected
  patch points
- SH W=1 F2FS build with the reported randconfig at the affected patch;
  fs/f2fs/file.o has no __divdi3 reference
- scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict (no errors or warnings)

Kelvin Zhang (11):
  f2fs: initialize sb_info early in f2fs_fill_super
  f2fs: describe SIT block layout dynamically
  f2fs: describe NAT block layout dynamically
  f2fs: describe orphan block layout dynamically
  f2fs: describe dentry block layout dynamically
  f2fs: describe {i,d,id}node block layout dynamically
  f2fs: describe xattr block layout dynamically
  f2fs: parameterize sector conversion macros
  f2fs: parameterize byte and block conversion macros
  f2fs: parameterize block size and mask macros
  f2fs: describe node tree geometry dynamically

Hi Kelvin,

I see only the first patch in this series. Am I missing something?
