I try to execute the following command to trigger gc thread: [root@localhost internal]# echo 1 > trigger_gc But it does not work, I debug the code in gc_should_run(), It works only if in invalidating or sectors_to_gc < 0. So set sectors_to_gc to -1 to meet the condition when we trigger gc by manual command.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
