Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/8] staging: erofs: decompression inplace approach
Hi,
After working on for more than half a year, the detail of erofs decompression
inplace is almost determined and ready for linux-next.
Currently, inplace IO is used if the whole compressed data is used
in order to reduce compressed pages extra memory overhead and an extra
memcpy (the only one memcpy) will be used for each inplace IO since
temporary buffer is needed to keep decompressing safe for inplace IO.
However, most of lz-based decompression algorithms support decompression
inplace by their algorithm designs, such as LZ4, LZO, etc.
If iend - oend margin is large enough, decompression inplace can be done
in the same buffer safely, as illustrated below:
start of compressed logical extent
| end of this logical extent

|__________|__________|__________|__________|

. |compressed|

|< dstsize >|<margin>|
oend iend
op ip
Fixed-size output compression can make the full use of this feature
to reduce memory overhead and avoid extra memcpy compared with fixed-size
input compression since iend is strictly not less than oend for fixed-size
output compression with inplace IO to last pages.
In addition, erofs compression indexes have been improved as well by
introducing compacted compression indexes.
These two techniques all benefit sequential read (on x86_64, 710.8MiB/s
-> 755.4MiB/s; on Kirin980, 725MiB/s -> 812MiB/s) therefore erofs
could have similar sequential read performance against ext4 in a larger
CR range on high-spend SSD / NVMe devices as well.
However, note that it is _cpu vs storage device_ balance, there is no
absolute performance conclusion for all on-market combinations.
At last, this is RFC patch v1, which means it is not suitable for
merging soon... I'm still working on it, testing its stability
these days and hope these patches get merged for 5.3 LTS
(if 5.3 is a LTS version).
The series is based on staging-next with the following patches, which
can be merged in advance:
[PATCH v3 1/2] staging: erofs: add requirements field in superblock
[PATCH v2 2/2] staging: erofs: rename data_mapping_mode to datamode
