I saw both meta and node's writepages() called from background will skip flushing dirty pages if dirty page count didn't touch the threshold.
/* collect a number of dirty node pages and write together */ if (wbc->sync_mode != WB_SYNC_ALL && get_pages(sbi, F2FS_DIRTY_NODES) < nr_pages_to_skip(sbi, NODE)) goto skip_write;
/* collect a number of dirty meta pages and write together */ if (wbc->sync_mode != WB_SYNC_ALL && get_pages(sbi, F2FS_DIRTY_META) < nr_pages_to_skip(sbi, META)) goto skip_write;
At that time, would syncfs (type sync command via shell) help?
