Subject: Mkfs.f2fs on null_blk device

When I try to make f2fs on null_blk device, it always shows "Device
size is not sufficient for F2FS volume",
I am I gave enough space for the file system, i.e, 20GiB. I just want
to know hot to fix it.
this is the output message:
[sijie@...ora null_blk]$ sudo mkfs.f2fs -f -m  /dev/nullb1
