[PATCH 1/1] LZ4: Port LZ4 1.9.x FAST_DEC_LOOP and enable it on x86 and ARM64

From: Chenxi Mao
Date: Fri May 17 2019 - 02:04:53 EST


FAST_DEC_LOOP was introduced from LZ4 1.9.0[1]
This change would be introduce 10% on decompress operation
according to LZ4 benchmark result on X86 devices.
Meanwhile, LZ4 with FAST_DEC_LOOP could get improvements on ARM64,
however clang compiler has downgrade if FAST_DEC_LOOP enabled.

So FAST_DEC_LOOP only enabled on X86/X86-64 or ARM64 with GCC build.

LZ4 FAST_DEC_LOOP bug fixes include as well.
1. fixed read-after input in LZ4_decompress_safe() (issue 681)
2. Fix out-of-bound read in LZ4_decompress_fast() (issue 676)

PS2:
1. Move common API to lz4defs.h
2. Add PPC related inline Macro defination.
3. Force inline new static apis.

Here is the test result on ARM64(cortex-A53)
Benchmark via ZRAM:

Test case:
taskset 03 /data/fio --bs=32k --randrepeat=1 --randseed=100 --refill_buffers \
--buffer_compress_percentage=75 --size=700M \
--scramble_buffers=1 --direct=1 --loops=100 --numjobs=1 \
--filename=/data/test/test --name=seq-read --rw=read --stonewall

Patched:
READ: bw=150MiB/s (157MB/s)
Vanilla:
READ: bw=135MiB/s (142MB/s)
