2020-05-29	Block processor: turn internal functions into interface entry points	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-23	block processor: move the block consolidation to the worker thread	David Oberhollenzer
	Instead of merging fragments into the fragment block inside the process_completed_fragment function, store a linked list of fragments in the fragment block and do the actual merging (several memcpy calls totaling of up to 1M of data in worst case) in the worker thread instead of the locked, serial path.

2020-05-23	block processor: recycle blocks to reduce allocation pressure	David Oberhollenzer
	Instead of freeing/allocating blocks all the time in the locked, serial path, use a free list to "recycle" blocks. Once a block is no longer used, throw it onto the free list. If a new block is, needed try to get one from the free list before calling malloc. After a few iterations, the block processor should stop allocating new blocks and only re-use the ones it already has. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-22	Add a seperate sqfs_block_processor_sync function	David Oberhollenzer
	This function waits for all pending blocks to be written to disk, but doesn't flush the fragment block, so processing can continue afterwards as if nothing happened. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-16	block processor: move the internals to the respective implementations	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-16	Move all the queue-waiting logic to the thread pool implemenation	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-16	block processor: move sparse block detection into worker thread	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15	Cleanup: block processor: move init/cleanup functions into implemenations	David 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.

2020-02-15	Cleanup: block processor: move finish function back into implementations	David 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>
2020-02-15	Cleanup: block processor: remove test_and_set_status	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-15	Cleanup: block processor: remove delayed thread notification	David 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>
2020-02-12	Implement a more explicit object system	David 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>
2020-02-09	Move block writer and fragment table management out of block processor	David Oberhollenzer
	Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-01-29	Rename sqfs_data_writer_t back to sqfs_block_processor_t	David Oberhollenzer
