This patch provides a generic device-mapper compression device.
Originally written by Shaohua Li.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2013-December/msg00143.html
I have optimized and hardened the code.
Testing:
-------
This compression block device is tested in the following scenarios
a) backing a ext4 filesystem
b) backing swap
Its stress tested on PPC64 and x86 system.
Version v1:
Comments from Alasdair have been incorporated.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2013-December/msg00144.html
Version v2:
All patches are merged into a single patch.
Major code re-arrangement.
Data and metablocks allocated based on the length of the device
map rather than the size of the backing device.
Size of each entry in the bitmap array is explicitly set
to 32bits.
Attempt to reuse the provided bio buffer space instead
of allocating a new one.
Version v3:
Fixed sector alignment bugs exposed while testing on x86.
Explicitly set the maximum request size to 128K. Without which
range locking failed, causing I/Os to stamp each other.
Fixed an occasional data corruption caused by wrong size of the
compression buffer.
Added a parameter while creation of the block device,
to not sleep during memory allocations. This can be useful
if the device is used as a swap device.
Your comments to improve the code is very much appreciated.
