lib/lz4: update LZ4 decompressor module

2018-10-31T15:54:14Z

Update the LZ4 compression module based on LZ4 v1.8.3 in order for the erofs file system to use the newest LZ4_decompress_safe_partial() which can now decode exactly the nb of bytes requested [1] to take place of the open hacked code in the erofs file system itself. Currently, apart from the erofs file system, no other users use LZ4_decompress_safe_partial, so no worry about the interface. In addition, LZ4 v1.8.x boosts up decompression speed compared to the current code which is based on LZ4 v1.7.3, mainly due to shortcut optimization for the specific common LZ4-sequences [2]. lzbench testdata (tested in kirin710, 8 cores, 4 big cores at 2189Mhz, 2GB DDR RAM at 1622Mhz, with enwik8 testdata [3]): Compressor name Compress.

lib: update LZ4 compressor module

2017-02-25T01:46:57Z

Patch series "Update LZ4 compressor module", v7. This patchset updates the LZ4 compression module to a version based on LZ4 v1.7.3 allowing to use the fast compression algorithm aka LZ4 fast which provides an "acceleration" parameter as a tradeoff between high compression ratio and high compression speed. We want to use LZ4 fast in order to support compression in lustre and (mostly, based on that) investigate data reduction techniques in behalf of storage systems. Also, it will be useful for other users of LZ4 compression, as with LZ4 fast it is possible to enable applications to use fast and/or high compression depending on the usecase. For instance, ZRAM is offering a LZ4 backend and could benefit from an updated LZ4 in the kernel.

The kernel module is inspired by the previous work by Chanho Min. The updated LZ4 module will not break existing code since the patchset contains appropriate changes. API changes: New method LZ4_compress_fast which differs from the variant available in kernel by the new acceleration parameter, allowing to trade compression ratio for more compression speed and vice versa. LZ4_decompress_fast is the respective decompression method, featuring a very fast decoder (multiple GB/s per core), able to reach RAM speed in multi-core systems. The decompressor allows to decompress data compressed with LZ4 fast as well as the LZ4 HC (high compression) algorithm. Also the useful functions LZ4_decompress_safe_partial and LZ4_compress_destsize were added. The latter reverses the logic by trying to compress as much data as possible from source to dest while the former aims to decompress partial blocks of data. A bunch of streaming functions were also added which allow compressig/decompressing data in multiple steps (so called "streaming mode"). The methods lz4_compress and lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize are now known as LZ4_compress_default respectivley LZ4_decompress_safe. The old methods will be removed since there's no callers left in the code.

These identifiers are bogus. The interested architectures should define HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS whenever relevant to do so.

lib: lz4: fixed zram with lz4 on big endian machines

2016-04-13T16:22:49Z

Based on Sergey's test patch [1], this fixes zram with lz4 compression on big endian cpus. Note that the 64-bit preprocessor test is not a cleanup, it's part of the fix, since those identifiers are bogus (for example, __ppc64__ isn't defined anywhere else in the kernel, which means we'd fall into the 32-bit definitions on ppc64). Tested on ppc64 with no regression on x86_64.

lib/lz4: Pull out constant tables

There's no reason to allocate the dec{32,64}table on the stack; it just wastes a bunch of instructions setting them up and, of course, also consumes quite a bit of stack. Using size_t for such small integers is a little excessive. $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/built-in.o lib/built-in.o add/remove: 2/2 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 1304/-1548 (-244) function old new delta lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize 55 718 +663 lz4_decompress 55 632 +577 dec64table - 32 +32 dec32table - 32 +32 lz4_uncompress 747 - -747 lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize 801 - -801 The now inlined lz4_uncompress functions used to have a stack footprint of 176 bytes (according to -fstack-usage); their inlinees have increased their stack use from 32 bytes to 48 and 80 bytes, respectively.
