I was looking at Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.txt trying to work out
how to do atomic writes.

I did find https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1839691.html which
contains some elements.

It seems F2FS_IOC_DB_OPEN might been replaced by
F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE looking at fs/f2fs/f2fs.h

I'd really like some documentation to be written in filesystems/f2fs.txt
to aid the use of features that have been so diligently developed. I'd
also like to know what happens when the atomic write size gets too big.

After that perhaps it can be used in application like other storage
systems e.g. https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-11417

Keep up the good work.

Cheers,

Daniel Black
