2020-02-16Remove hard dependency on zlibDavid Oberhollenzer
No longer needed now that the block processor doesn't use zlib crc32 anymore. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-16Replace crc32 with xxhash32David Oberhollenzer
On the one hand, benchmarking and profiling determined xxhash32 to be faster than the zlib implementation of crc32, on the other hand profiling determined that crc32 computation contributed signifficantly to the overall runtime. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-15Move block block accounting to the other end of the block pipelineDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit moves all of the fragment/block accounting in the block processor over to the writing end of the pipeline. In order to do this, the sparse blocks are allowed to bubble through the pipeline. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Cleanup: block processor: move init/cleanup functions into implemenationsDavid Oberhollenzer
Again, the generic init/cleanup functions do way too many things that are specific to the thread pool implementation. Thanks to the splitting up of the block processor, they also have become quite trivial. This commit moves those functions into their respective implementations, allowing even further simplificiation. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Cleanup: block processor: move finish function back into implementationsDavid Oberhollenzer
The "generic" version actually uses specific internals of the thread pool implementation. Move it back into the thread pool based implementation and simplify the serial processor. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Cleanup: block processor: remove test_and_set_statusDavid Oberhollenzer
Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Don't set error status on block processor for non-fatal errorsDavid Oberhollenzer
If the API is mis-used or allocation fails, return an appropriate error code, but don't permanently break the block processor. It's easy to recover from that. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Add a "sequence error" to libsquashfs error codesDavid Oberhollenzer
Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15Cleanup: block processor: remove delayed thread notificationDavid Oberhollenzer
Under the assumption that block processing is CPU bound and not I/O bound, this is entirely useless. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-12Use a hash table for fragment lookup instead of linear searchDavid Oberhollenzer
Profiling on a sample filesystem determined that fragment deduplication lookups rank third place directly after crc32 and the actual compression. By using a hash table instead of linear search, this time can be reduced drastically. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-12Implement a more explicit object systemDavid Oberhollenzer
Make every dynamically allocated, opaque data structure inherit from a common sqfs_object_t structure with common entry points (e.g. destroy). This removes tons of public API functions and replaces them with a simple sqfs_destroy instead. If semantics of the (until now implicit) object system need to be extended, it can be much more conveniantely done this way. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-12Cleanup: Move sqfs_block_t to block processor internalsDavid Oberhollenzer
It was basically built around the block processor and exposed way too many internals. Removing it from other places was mostly trivial. This commit completely removes it from the public API and even most of the libsquashfs internals. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-12Remove usage of sqfs_block_t from block readerDavid Oberhollenzer

2020-02-12Clenaup: remove useage of sqfs_block_t from block writerDavid Oberhollenzer
The sqfs_block_t structure has been written for the block processor and exposes way too many internals. This commit removes its usage from the block writer, cutting it down to the bare essentials, so the structure can be removed from the public API later on. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-10Cleanup: remove the fragment store/discard and block discard hooksDavid Oberhollenzer
There is no obvious non-footgun use for those other than tallying statistics, which is now done by the data structures themselves. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-01-31Split the block writing/deduplication away from the block processorDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit moves the entire block writing and deduplication of data blocks over to a different data type named "block writer". For simplicity, the interfaces of the block processor are left as is and are turned into warppers. Likewise, most of the code in the block writer is just verbatim from the block processor, to be cleaned up in subsequent commits.

2020-01-29Update sha512sums for corpora testsDavid Oberhollenzer
The fragment table data structure has different policies for setting super block flags which affects the resulting sha512 checksums. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-01-26Cleanup: Move fragment deduplication code over to fragment tableDavid Oberhollenzer
This removes further clutter from the data writer. Any future efforts on making fragment by hash lookup faster can focus on that area only and don't clutter the block processor. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-01-19Cleanup: remove the payload pointers from sqfs_inode_generic_tDavid Oberhollenzer
There are 3 types of extra payload: - Directory index - File block sizes - Symlink target This commit removes the type specific pointers and modifies the code to use the payload area directly. To simplify the file block case and mitigate alignment issues, the type of the extra field is changed to sqfs_u32. For symlink target, the extra field can simply be cast to a character pointer (it had to be cast anyway for most uses). For block sizes, probably the most common usecase, it can be used as is. For directory indices, there is a helper function anyway. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-01-19Update explanation on directory index accountingDavid Oberhollenzer
Tests with the Debian image (which is generated with squashfs-tools, so should be interpreted as ground truth) have showed that the count is not stored off-by-one. The code was already doing the right thing, but the documentation was wrong. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
