2022-07-08Cleanup: move libutil headers to sub directoryDavid Oberhollenzer
Move all the libutil stuff from the toplevel include/ to a util/ sub directory and fix up the includes that make use of them. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-06-07libsquashfs: fix: also preserve alignment flag in block processorDavid Oberhollenzer
Currently, when the block processor aggreagtes fragments into a fragment block, it applies the "don't compress" flag if any of the original framgnets has it set, but the "align to device block" flag is lost. This commit ensures that both flags get applied to the fragment block if set. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-30libsqfs: block processor: Fix account for manually submitted blocksDavid Oberhollenzer
This was already in the original block processor but got dropped by accident when restructuring it. The problem manifests itself when manually submitting fragment blocks. They no longer get correct I/O queue tickets, clog up the queue and the processor eventually throws an internal error. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-25Fix fail branch in block processor fragment backendDavid Oberhollenzer
Only clean up the fragment if it hasn't been re-assigned to the fragment block. The NULL check is definitely wrong, because we no longer re-assign it as NULL. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-24Fix block processor queue accountingDavid Oberhollenzer
Dequeuing won't work if we have a backlog of 1 or 2 and the blocks are used for internal buffering. Take that into account, similar to the sync code. Also bump the minimum backlog to 3, just to make absolutely sure we cannot run into a dequeue loop trying to allocate a block. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-23block processor: Re-implement exact fragment matchingDavid Oberhollenzer
In the hash-table equals callback, if the hash and size match, do an exact, byte-for-byte comparison of the fragment in question. The fragment can either be in a fragment block that is in-flight (for which we have the in-flight list), in the current, unfinished fragment block, or it can be on disk. In the later case, the fragment block is resolved through the fragment table and read back from disk into a scratch buffer and decompressed. After that, the fragment is checked for byte-for-byte equality with the one we resolved through the hash table. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-23block processor: keep duplicate copies of in-flight fragment blocksDavid Oberhollenzer
If we want full, byte-for byte, verification of fragments during de-duplication we need to check back with the blocks already written to disk, or with the ones that are in flight. The previous, extremely hacky approach simply locked up the thread pool and investigated the queues. For the new approach, we treat the thread pool as completely opaque and don't try to touch it. This commit modifies the block processor to keep duplicate copies of each submitted fragment block around, that are cleaned up once the block is dequeued and written to disk. So instead of touching the thread pool, we can simply investigate the in-fligth-block list and the current block, before resorting to reading back fragment blocks from the file.

2021-03-22block processor: simplify backlog accountingDavid Oberhollenzer
Simply count the number of blocks we hand out (malloc'ed or recycled) and decrease the counter when we put blocks back for recycling. The sync() part becomes a little more complicated, because we can get stuck with a backlog of 1 or 2 because we have a fragment or current block buffer in use. We also need to accout for this when creating the processor, because we need to be able to request at least 2 blocks without stalling. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-22Cleanup the block processor file structureDavid Oberhollenzer
A cleaner separation between common code, frontend code and backend code is made. The "is this byte blob zero" function is moved out to libutil (with test case and everything) with a more optimized implementation. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2021-03-21Cleanup: Rewrite block processor to use the libutil thread_pool_tDavid Oberhollenzer
Throw out the messy thread pool implementation and temporarily also remove the exact fragment matching for simplicity. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2021-01-19Add a user pointer to the hash table implementationDavid Oberhollenzer
Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-01-19libsqfs: Add a sqfs_block_processor_create_ex functionDavid Oberhollenzer
This function creates a block processor from a structure describing it. A stub implementation for the old sqfs_block_processor_create is added that simply sets up such a struct and forwards the call. The current version of the description struct only contains the exact same parameters and a size field at the beginning. This approach is supposed to make extending the range of parameters easier without breaking ABI compatibillity. Currently already planned are: - Adding a sqfs_file_t pointer to double-check when deduplicating fragments. - When the scanning code reaches a usable state, add the abillity to pass scanned fragment data, so the block processor can be used for appending to an existing image.

2021-01-19Fix: Move fragment consolidation back to block processor serial partDavid Oberhollenzer
Keeping a list of fragments stored away in the current fragment block and consolidating them in the thread pool takes them out of circulation. If we have a lot of tiny fragments, this can lead to a situation where all the limit is reached, but we cannot do anything, because we are waiting for a block to complete, but they are all attached to the current fragment block and the queue is empty. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-08-12Fix block processor single block with don't fragment flag bugDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit fixes a bug where the block processor state machine would not add the "last block" flag if there is only one not entirely filled block and the "don't fragment" flag is set. If the flag isn't set, the inode start block position is not updated and points to the beginning of the image instead. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-05-29Block processor: allow operation without a fragment tableDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit modifies the block processor to support operating without a fragment table. If that is the case, fragment deduplication is essentially disabled and fragment blocks aren't indexed anymore. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-29Block processor: Add a raw block submission functionDavid Oberhollenzer
This function allows submission of raw blocks to the block processor, completely bypassing the file API. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-29Block processor: add flags to manage hashing & sparse block detectionDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit adds 2 new user settable flags to the block processor: - A flag to ignore sparse blocks and treat them like normal data blocks. - A flag to disable checksum computation altogether. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-29Support associating a user pointer with data blocksDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit modifies the block processor to support associating a user data pointer with data blocks that it forwards to the block writer, which is modified to accept an optional user data pointer. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-05-29Turn the sqfs_block_writer_t into an interfaceDavid Oberhollenzer
This way, everything that could be done through the hooks (and more) can be done by simply providign a custom implementation. The result is a lot clener that the previous hook based version. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-29cleanup: libsqfs: eliminate block writer statisticsDavid Oberhollenzer
- the "bytes submitted" can be moved over to the block processor - the number of blocks submitted are already there (implcitily, by adding the data block count to the fragment block count) - actual data bytes written can be computed from the super block - the remaining block count can be changed to simple counter that can be obtained through a function. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-24Minor fixes/cleanups in the block processorDavid Oberhollenzer
- Move the inode modifications out of do_block. The inode may be reallocated in parallel by the process_completed_block function, so it is not safe to store the fragment location in the do_block function which is used from the worker threads. - Move the accounting of fragment blocks to the process_completed_block function.

2020-05-24Cleanup: split the block processor common.c againDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit breaks the common code up again by moving the data submission code to a separate file, making both a little bit more readable. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-24block processor: promote fragments to fragment blocksDavid Oberhollenzer
Instead of [potentially] allocating a new fragment block, take an existing fragment and promote it to the fragmenet block. This saves as a potential block allocation and a memcpy of the initial data. Also it *definitely* removes block allocation from the backend path of the block processor. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-23block processor: move the block consolidation to the worker threadDavid 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. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-23block processor: recycle blocks to reduce allocation pressureDavid 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>
2020-05-23block processor: don't zero initialize the block payload areaDavid Oberhollenzer
In the block processor, the payload area is only accessed up to the indicated size. Even the part that is accessed is initialized by copying data into the block before increasing the size, so there is no real point in zero-initializing hundres of kilobytes if not megabytes of payload area, especially since this is done in the locked, serial path of the block processor. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-05-04Fix: propperly set the last block flag if fragments are disabledDavid Oberhollenzer
If a file consisting of multiple blocks is produced, the last block is short and the don't fragment flag is set, the last block flag has to be set on the block when we flush it, so the processing pipeline does it's job correctly. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-03-19Fix pthread_join check for valid thread handlesDavid Oberhollenzer
On Linux, checking for > 0 worked because pthread_t is internally an integer type. On other platforms (*caugh* Mac OS X *caugh*), it is typedefed to an opaque pointer, causing a warning if used in an integer relational comparison. The intended use is to allow the generic cleanup function to be used in the error path of the block processor creation function, while preventing pthread_join being called on threads that haven't been created at all. Since they are calloc'ed to 0, testing for non-zero values should suffice in both cases. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-03-04Add a generic copying mechanism to sqfs_object_tDavid Oberhollenzer
This patch adds a deep-copy callback to sqfs_object_t and removes the copying mechanism from sqfs_compressor_t. This is also interesting for other types. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-23Turn file inode management completely over to the block processorDavid Oberhollenzer
If the block processor allocates and dynamically resizes inodes on the fly, we can add data indefinitely without knowing the size of the file ahead of time. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-23Unify the payload counters in the sqfs_inode_generic_tDavid Oberhollenzer
Instead of having seperate counters for blocks, dir index bytes and having to fiddle out the link target size, simply use a single value that stores the number of payload bytes used. A seperate "payload bytes available" is used for dynamically growing inodes during processing. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-02-22Cleanup block processor: Merge destructors for Windows & pthreadsDavid Oberhollenzer
Since the merged destructor checks if the objects it destroys were actually initialized, the pthread implementation can also replace its error path cleanup with simply calling the destructor. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2020-02-22Add a seperate sqfs_block_processor_sync functionDavid 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>
2020-02-21Cleanup: move utilities back out of libsquashfsDavid Oberhollenzer
This commit removes the allocation helpers and string table functions out of libsquashfs back into a "libutil.a". The problem of libsquashfs exporting stuff that it shouldn't is resolved by retaining the internal attributes and directly adding the source to libsquashfs instead of trying to somehow link against libutil.la.
