[PATCH v9 06/12] f2fs: cache: initialize node cache

From: Chao Yu

Date: Thu Sep 17 2026 - 03:34:20 EST


From: Chao Yu <chao@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch introduces node_blocks in f2fs_sb_info structure, initializes
and destroys the node cache during filesystem mount and unmount.

It also introduces helper wrappers for node cache operation, and registers
node cache into the memory shrinker and writeback kthread.
