2022-11-18squashfs: allows users to configure the number of decompression threadsXiaoming Ni
The maximum number of threads in the decompressor_multi.c file is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to user needs. Therefore, the mount parameter needs to be added to allow users to configure the number of threads as required. The upper limit is num_online_cpus() * 2.

2022-11-18squashfs: add the mount parameter theads=<single|multi|percpu>Xiaoming Ni
Patch series 'squashfs: Add the mount parameter "threads="'. Currently, Squashfs supports multiple decompressor parallel modes. However, this mode can be configured only during kernel building and does not support flexible selection during runtime. In the current patch set, the mount parameter "threads=" is added to allow users to select the parallel decompressor mode and configure the number of decompressors when mounting a file system. "threads=<single|multi|percpu|1|2|3|...>" The upper limit is num_online_cpus() * 2. This patch (of 2): Squashfs supports three decompression concurrency modes: Single-thread mode: concurrent reads are blocked and the memory overhead is small. Multi-thread mode/percpu mode: reduces concurrent read blocking but increases memory overhead. The corresponding schema must be fixed at compile time. During mounting, the concurrent decompression mode cannot be adjusted based on file read blocking. The mount parameter theads=<single|multi|percpu> is added to select the concurrent decompression mode of a single SquashFS file system image.

2020-06-02squashfs: migrate from ll_rw_block usage to BIOPhilippe Liard
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.

2013-11-20Squashfs: Generalise paging handling in the decompressorsPhillip Lougher
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.
