2018-04-12btrfs: replace GPL boilerplate by SPDX -- sourcesDavid Sterba
Remove GPL boilerplate text (long, short, one-line) and keep the rest, ie. personal, company or original source copyright statements. Add the SPDX header. Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
2018-01-22btrfs: move some zstd work data from stack to workspaceDavid Sterba
* ZSTD_inBuffer in_buf * ZSTD_outBuffer out_buf are used in all functions to pass the compression parameters and the local variables consume some space. We can move them to the workspace and reduce the stack consumption: zstd.c:zstd_decompress -24 (136 -> 112) zstd.c:zstd_decompress_bio -24 (144 -> 120) zstd.c:zstd_compress_pages -24 (264 -> 240) Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Nick Terrell <terrelln@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
2017-11-01btrfs: allow to set compression level for zlibDavid Sterba
Preliminary support for setting compression level for zlib, the following works: $ mount -o compess=zlib # default $ mount -o compess=zlib0 # same $ mount -o compess=zlib9 # level 9, slower sync, less data $ mount -o compess=zlib1 # level 1, faster sync, more data $ mount -o remount,compress=zlib3 # level set by remount The compress-force works the same as compress'. The level is visible in the same format in /proc/mounts. Level set via file property does not work yet. Required patch: "btrfs: prepare for extensions in compression options" Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
2017-08-15btrfs: Add zstd supportNick Terrell
Add zstd compression and decompression support to BtrFS. zstd at its fastest level compresses almost as well as zlib, while offering much faster compression and decompression, approaching lzo speeds. I benchmarked btrfs with zstd compression against no compression, lzo compression, and zlib compression. I benchmarked two scenarios. Copying a set of files to btrfs, and then reading the files. Copying a tarball to btrfs, extracting it to btrfs, and then reading the extracted files. After every operation, I call `sync` and include the sync time. Between every pair of operations I unmount and remount the filesystem to avoid caching. The benchmark files can be found in the upstream zstd source repository under `contrib/linux-kernel/{btrfs-benchmark.sh,btrfs-extract-benchmark.sh}` [1] [2]. I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. The first compression benchmark is copying 10 copies of the unzipped Silesia corpus [3] into a BtrFS filesystem mounted with `-o compress-force=Method`. The decompression benchmark times how long it takes to `tar` all 10 copies into `/dev/null`. The compression ratio is measured by comparing the output of `df` and `du`. See the benchmark file [1] for details. I benchmarked multiple zstd compression levels, although the patch uses zstd level 1. | Method | Ratio | Compression MB/s | Decompression speed | |---------|-------|------------------|---------------------| | None | 0.99 | 504 | 686 | | lzo | 1.66 | 398 | 442 | | zlib | 2.58 | 65 | 241 | | zstd 1 | 2.57 | 260 | 383 | | zstd 3 | 2.71 | 174 | 408 | | zstd 6 | 2.87 | 70 | 398 | | zstd 9 | 2.92 | 43 | 406 | | zstd 12 | 2.93 | 21 | 408 | | zstd 15 | 3.01 | 11 | 354 | The next benchmark first copies `linux-4.11.6.tar` [4] to btrfs. Then it measures the compression ratio, extracts the tar, and deletes the tar. Then it measures the compression ratio again, and `tar`s the extracted files into `/dev/null`. See the benchmark file [2] for details. | Method | Tar Ratio | Extract Ratio | Copy (s) | Extract (s)| Read (s) | |--------|-----------|---------------|----------|------------|----------| | None | 0.97 | 0.78 | 0.981 | 5.501 | 8.807 | | lzo | 2.06 | 1.38 | 1.631 | 8.458 | 8.585 | | zlib | 3.40 | 1.86 | 7.750 | 21.544 | 11.744 | | zstd 1 | 3.57 | 1.85 | 2.579 | 11.479 | 9.389 | [1] https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/linux-kernel/btrfs-benchmark.sh [2] https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/linux-kernel/btrfs-extract-benchmark.sh [3] http://sun.aei.polsl.pl/~sdeor/index.php?page=silesia [4] https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/linux-4.11.6.tar.xz zstd source repository: https://github.com/facebook/zstd Signed-off-by: Nick Terrell <terrelln@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>
