[PATCH v6 1/5] add compression algorithm zBeWalgo

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



zBeWalgo is a completely new algorithm - Currently it is not published
somewhere else right now, googleing it would not show up any results. The
following section describes how the algorithm works.

zBeWalgo itself is a container compression algorithm, which can execute
multiple different compression and transformation algorithms after each other.
The execution of different compression algorithms after each other will be
called 'combination' in this description and in the code. Additionally to be
able to execute combinations of algorithms, zBeWalgo can try different
combinations on the same input. This allows high compression ratios on
completely different datasets, which would otherwise require its own
algorithm each. Executing all known combinations on each input page would be
very slow. Therefore the data is compressed at first with that combination,
which was already successful on the last input page. If the compressed data
size of the current page is similar to that of the last page, the compressed
data is returned immediately without even trying the other combinations. Even
if there is no guarantee that consecutive calls to the algorithm belong to
each other, the speed improvement is obvious.

ZRAM uses zsmalloc for the management of the compressed pages. The largest
size-class in zsmalloc is 3264 Bytes. If the compressed data is larger than
that threshold, ZRAM ignores the compression and writes the uncompressed page
instead. As a consequence it is useless to continue compression, if the
algorithm detects, that the data can not be compressed using the current
combination. The threshold for aborting compression can be changed via sysfs at
any time, even if the algorithm is currently in use. If a combination fails to
compress the data, zBeWalgo tries the next combination. If no combination is
able to reduce the data in size, zBeWalgo returns a negative value.

Each combination consists of up to 7 compression and transformation steps.
Combinations can be added and removed at any time via sysfs. Already compressed
Data can always be decompressed, even if the combination used to produce it
does not exist anymore. Technically the user could add up to 256 combinations
concurrently, but that would be very time consuming if the data can not be
compressed.

To be able to build combinations and call different algorithms, all those
algorithms are implementing the same interface. This enables the user to
specify additional combinations while ZRAM is running.

Within the combinations many different algorithms can be used. Some of those
algorithms are published. This patch adds the following algorithms to be used
within the combinations:
- bwt: The Burrows-Wheeler-Transformation was published by 'M. Burrows' and
    'D. J. Wheeler' in 1994. This implementation uses counting sort for
    sorting the data. Their original paper is online available at:
    http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/Compaq-DEC/SRC-RR-124.pdf
- mtf: The Move-To-Front algorithm as described by 'M. Burrows' and
    'D. J. Wheeler' in the same paper as bwt.
- jbe: j-bit-encoding as proposed by 'I Made Agus Dwi Suarjaya' in 2012.
    https://arxiv.org/pdf/1209.1045.pdf
- jbe2: A minor modification of jbe. Swapping groups of 4 Bit in consecutive
    Bytes can increase the compression ratio, if for example the first
    4 Bits of each Byte are zero. If jbe2 is called after mtf, this
    happens ofthen.
- rle: Run Length Encoding
- huffman: Huffman encoding
- bewalgo: I invented this algorithm for my bachelors thesis
    'Page-Based compression in the Linux Kernel'. This algorithm is
    mainly inspired by lz4, focusing on increasing the speed even more,
    with the help of page aligned read an write access. To achieve the
    page alignment, the input and output data is accessed only in
    blocks of 8 Bytes, therefore the encoding of the compressed data is
    changed.
    https://wr.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/_media/research:theses:benjamin_warnke_page_based_compression_in_the_linux_kernel.pdf
- bewalgo2: At the beginning of my work to improve ZRAM this was the whole
    algorithm. The input is read in blocks of 8 Bytes. These Blocks
    are added to an avl-tree. The avl-tree is mapped directly to an
    array. The encoding is a variation of Run Length Encoding using the
    indices in the avl-tree as data. The reason for using the tree
    with indices is, that the indices can be encoded in less then
    8 Bytes each.

+ *
+ * zBeWalgo is a container compression algorithm, which can execute
+ * multiple different compression and transformation algorithms after each
+ * other. The execution of different compression algorithms after each other
+ * will be called 'combination' in this description and in the code.
+ * Additionally to be able to execute combinations of algorithms, zBeWalgo
+ * can try different combinations on the same input. This allows high
+ * compression ratios on completely different datasets, which would otherwise
+ * require its own algorithm each. Executing all known combinations on each
+ * input page would be very slow. Therefore the data is compressed at first
+ * with that combination, which was already successful on the last input
+ * page. If the compressed data size of the current page is similar to that
+ * of the last page, the compressed data is returned immediately without even
+ * trying the other combinations. Even if there is no guarantee that
+ * consecutive calls to the algorithm belong to each other, the speed
+ * improvement is obvious.
+ *
+ * ZRAM uses zsmalloc for the management of the compressed pages. The largest
+ * size-class in zsmalloc is 3264 Bytes. If the compressed data is larger than
+ * that threshold, ZRAM ignores the compression and writes the uncompressed
+ * page instead. As a consequence it is useless to continue compression, if the
+ * algorithm detects, that the data can not be compressed using the current
+ * combination. The threshold for aborting compression can be changed via
+ * sysfs at any time, even if the algorithm is currently in use. If a
+ * combination fails to compress the data, zBeWalgo tries the next
+ * combination. If no combination is able to reduce the data in size,
+ * zBeWalgo returns a negative value.
+ *
+ * Each combination consists of up to 7 compression and transformation steps.
+ * Combinations can be added and removed at any time via sysfs. Already
+ * compressed Data can always be decompressed, even if the combination used
+ * to produce it does not exist anymore. Technically the user could add up to
+ * 256 combinations concurrently, but that would be very time consuming if
+ * the data can not be compressed.
+ *
+ * To be able to build combinations and call different algorithms, all those
+ * algorithms are implementing the same interface. This enables the user to
+ * specify additional combinations while ZRAM is running.
