From 0d455c12c6428647547bacccaaced3cae0f35570 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phillip Lougher Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 02:04:19 +0000 Subject: Squashfs: Directly decompress into the page cache for file data This introduces an implementation of squashfs_readpage_block() that directly decompresses into the page cache. This uses the previously added page handler abstraction to push down the necessary kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic operations on the page cache buffers into the decompressors. This enables direct copying into the page cache without using the slow kmap/kunmap calls. The code detects when multiple threads are racing in squashfs_readpage() to decompress the same block, and avoids this regression by falling back to using an intermediate buffer. This patch enhances the performance of Squashfs significantly when multiple processes are accessing the filesystem simultaneously because it not only reduces memcopying, but it more importantly eliminates the lock contention on the intermediate buffer.
