* squashfs: extend "page actor" to handle missing pagesPhillip Lougher2022-06-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "Squashfs: handle missing pages decompressing into page cache". This patchset enables Squashfs to handle missing pages when directly decompressing datablocks into the page cache. Previously if the full set of pages needed was not available, Squashfs would have to fall back to using an intermediate buffer (the older method), which is slower, involving a memcopy, and it introduces contention on a shared buffer. The first patch extends the "page actor" code to handle missing pages. The second patch updates Squashfs_readpage_block() to use the new functionality, and removes the code that falls back to using an intermediate buffer. This patchset is independent of the readahead work, and it is standalone. It can be merged on its own. But the readahead patch for efficiency also needs this patch-set. This patch (of 2): This patch extends the "page actor" code to handle missing pages. Previously if the full set of pages needed to decompress a Squashfs datablock was unavailable, this would cause decompression to fail on the missing pages. In this case direct decompression into the page cache could not be achieved and the code would fall back to using the older intermediate buffer method. With this patch, direct decompression into the page cache can be achieved with missing pages. For "multi-shot" decompressors (zlib, xz, zstd), the page actor will allocate a temporary buffer which is passed to the decompressor, and then freed by the page actor. For "single shot" decompressors (lz4, lzo) which decompress into a contiguous "bounce buffer", and which is then copied into the page cache, it would be pointless to allocate a temporary buffer, memcpy into it, and then free it. For these decompressors -ENOMEM is returned, which signifies that the memcpy for that page should be skipped. This also happens if the data block is uncompressed.

* squashfs: migrate from ll_rw_block usage to BIOPhilippe Liard2020-06-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ll_rw_block() function has been deprecated in favor of BIO which appears to come with large performance improvements. This patch decreases boot time by close to 40% when using squashfs for the root file-system. This is observed at least in the context of starting an Android VM on Chrome OS using crosvm. The patch was tested on 4.19 as well as master. This patch is largely based on Adrien Schildknecht's patch that was originally sent as https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/9/22/814 though with some significant changes and simplifications while also taking Phillip Lougher's feedback into account, around preserving support for FILE_CACHE in particular.

* squashfs: Add zstd supportSean Purcell2017-09-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add zstd compression and decompression support to SquashFS. zstd is a great fit for SquashFS because it can compress at ratios approaching xz, while decompressing twice as fast as zlib. For SquashFS in particular, it can decompress as fast as lzo and lz4. It also has the flexibility to turn down the compression ratio for faster compression times. The compression benchmark is run on the file tree from the SquashFS archive found in ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso [1]. It uses `mksquashfs` with the default block size (128 KB) and and various compression algorithms/levels. xz and zstd are also benchmarked with 256 KB blocks. The decompression benchmark times how long it takes to `tar` the file tree into `/dev/null`. See the benchmark file in the upstream zstd source repository located under `contrib/linux-kernel/squashfs-benchmark.sh` [2] for details. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. | Method | Ratio | Compression MB/s | Decompression MB/s | |----------------|-------|------------------|--------------------| | gzip | 2.92 | 15 | 128 | | lzo | 2.64 | 9.5 | 217 | | lz4 | 2.12 | 94 | 218 | | xz | 3.43 | 5.5 | 35 | | xz 256 KB | 3.53 | 5.4 | 40 | | zstd 1 | 2.71 | 96 | 210 | | zstd 5 | 2.93 | 69 | 198 | | zstd 10 | 3.01 | 41 | 225 | | zstd 15 | 3.13 | 11.4 | 224 | | zstd 16 256 KB | 3.24 | 8.1 | 210 | This patch was written by Sean Purcell <me@seanp.xyz>, but I will be taking over the submission process.

* Squashfs: Generalise paging handling in the decompressorsPhillip Lougher2013-11-201-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Further generalise the decompressors by adding a page handler abstraction. This adds helpers to allow the decompressors to access and process the output buffers in an implementation independant manner. This allows different types of output buffer to be passed to the decompressors, with the implementation specific aspects handled at decompression time, but without the knowledge being held in the decompressor wrapper code. This will allow the decompressors to handle Squashfs cache buffers, and page cache pages. This patch adds the abstraction and an implementation for the caches.

* Squashfs: Refactor decompressor interface and codePhillip Lougher2013-11-201-14/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The decompressor interface and code was written from the point of view of single-threaded operation. In doing so it mixed a lot of single-threaded implementation specific aspects into the decompressor code and elsewhere which makes it difficult to seamlessly support multiple different decompressor implementations. This patch does the following: 1. It removes compressor_options parsing from the decompressor init() function. This allows the decompressor init() function to be dynamically called to instantiate multiple decompressors, without the compressor options needing to be read and parsed each time. 2. It moves threading and all sleeping operations out of the decompressors. In doing so, it makes the decompressors non-blocking wrappers which only deal with interfacing with the decompressor implementation. 3. It splits decompressor.[ch] into decompressor generic functions in decompressor.[ch], and moves the single threaded decompressor implementation into decompressor_single.c. The result of this patch is Squashfs should now be able to support multiple decompressors by adding new decompressor_xxx.c files with specialised implementations of the functions in decompressor_single.c Signed-off-by: Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk> Reviewed-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
* Squashfs: Make ZLIB compression support optionalPhillip Lougher2011-07-221-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | Squashfs now supports XZ and LZO compression in addition to ZLIB. As such it no longer makes sense to always include ZLIB support. In particular embedded systems may only use LZO or XZ compression, and the ability to exclude ZLIB support will reduce kernel size. Signed-off-by: Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk>

* Squashfs: extend decompressor framework to handle compression optionsPhillip Lougher2011-02-281-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend decompressor framework to handle compression options stored in the filesystem. These options can be used by the relevant decompressor at initialisation time to over-ride defaults. The presence of compression options in the filesystem is indicated by the COMP_OPT filesystem flag. If present the data is read from the filesystem and passed to the decompressor init function. The decompressor init function signature has been extended to take this data. Also update the init function signature in the glib, lzo and xz decompressor wrappers.
