Hi Herbert, This series adds support for hardware accelerated compression & decompression as found on ThunderX (arm64) SOCs. As per your suggestion, we've switched to the new crypto acomp/scomp interface. To test the ZIP driver, we modified the kernel's ZSWAP to use acomp API's. Performance numbers from ZSWAP look promising. The "average time" for compressing a 4KB page: Compression Software : 278 usec Compression HW deflate : 17 usec Compression HW LZS : 11 usec Decompression Software : 20 usec Decompression HW deflate: 8 usec Decompression HW LZS : 6 usec Addressed the review comments from the RFC v1. - Added acomp/scomp crypto interface support. - Improved the error handling. - ZIP command completion codes are renamed suitably. - Removed some un-used code. - raw_smp_processor_id() replaced with smp_processor_id(). - Some more miscellaneous changes. Patches are on top of "kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6.git" repository Please provide your feedback.
