Subject[PATCH 1/2] fs/squashfs: Make SquashFS xz initialization mode configurable
Date
From: "yusun2@cisco.com" <yusun2@cisco.com>

Make SquashFS xz initialization mode configurable to be either
XZ_PREALLOC or XZ_DYNALLOC. The default mode is XZ_PREALLOC.

SquashFS multi-threaded per-CPU decompressor is proven to
effectively resolve the I/O bottleneck and boost the outcome
of other boot time optimization technologies on some I/O bound
platforms. However it allocates extra memory on per-processor
per-mounted-package basis. Making XZ_DYNALLOC mode an option
for the xz decompressor initialization in SquashFS minimizes
the memory impact.

+ help
+ Squashfs now utilizes the two different multi-call modes of xz
+ decompression. They each exhibits various trade-offs between
+ decompression performance and memory consumption.
+
+ If in doubt, select "XZ preallocated multi-call mode"
+
+config SQUASHFS_XZ_DICT_PREALLOC
+ bool "XZ preallocated multi-call mode"
+ help
+ Traditionally Squashfs has used XZ_PREALLOC operation mode for
+ xz decompression, under which the xz dictionary buffer is allocated
+ at initialization.
+
+config SQUASHFS_XZ_DICT_DYNALLOC
+ bool "XZ dynamic-allocated multi-call mode"
+ help
+ By default Squashfs uses XZ_PREALLOC operation mode for xz decompressor.
+ This, however, potentially lead to significant increase of memory
+ consumption, especially when SquashFS per-cpu multi-threaded
+ decompressor is applied.
+
+ If the system has memory constraints, setting this option will force
+ SquashFS to use XZ_DYNALLOC mode, and thus reduce memory footprint.
+ In this case, the LZMA2 dictionary is allocated upon needed with the
+ required size.
