Freespace trees can occupy a lot of memory with as the fragmentation
increases. This patch adds a sysfs file to monitor the memory usage of
the freespace tree allocator. Also, added a sysfs config to control
maximum memory that the allocator can use. If the allocator exceeds
this threshold, file system enters "FRSP_MEM_CRUNCH" state. The next
patch in the series performs LRU eviction when this state is reached.

Hello Harshad,

Thank you for these useful patches. I am still reviewing them. This one looks good for me, but one place looks strange. See bellow.

Why FRSP_MEM_CRUNCH is cleared here? Are any cases when a node allocating can reduce fragments numbers?

If there are some reasons to clear FRSP_MEM_CRUNCH in ext4_mb_frsp_alloc_node, should we also set FRSP_MEM_CRUNCH here?

The reason why I have this here is to handle the case when the memory
limit gets updated by a sysfs tunable. So, once the sysfs tunable
tunable "mb_frsm_max_mem" was increased, then the next allocation
request would clear the MEM_CRUNCH flag. Without this, the FS would
evict a tree in LRU fashion (implemented in the next patch) which
shouldn't be necessary. Other option would be to update the MEM_CRUNCH
option right at the time when sysfs tunable is updated.

Thanks, I think we can do that. If the memory limit decreases, it'd be
good to set MEM_CRUNCH here. In my testing, I have found that
decreasing the memory limit to be very slow to take effect. Perhaps
this might be one of the reasons.

Thanks,
