[PATCH v4] btrfs: Use larger zlib buffer for s390 hardware compression

From: Mikhail Zaslonko
Date: Wed Jan 08 2020 - 05:51:12 EST


In order to benefit from s390 zlib hardware compression support,
increase the btrfs zlib workspace buffer size from 1 to 4 pages (if
s390 zlib hardware support is enabled on the machine). This brings up
to 60% better performance in hardware on s390 compared to the PAGE_SIZE
buffer and much more compared to the software zlib processing in btrfs.
In case of memory pressure, fall back to a single page buffer during
workspace allocation.
The data compressed with larger input buffers will still conform to zlib
standard and thus can be decompressed also on a systems that uses only
PAGE_SIZE buffer for btrfs zlib.
