[PATCH 0/5] erofs: basic sub-page compressed data support

Hi folks,
Recently, there are two new cases so that we need to add a preliminary
sub-page block support for compressed files;
- As Android folks requested, Android ecosystem itself is now switching
to 16k page size for their arm64 devices. They needs an option of
4k-block image compatibility on their new 16k devices;
- Some arm64 cloud servers use 64k page size for their optimized
workloads, but 4k-block EROFS container images need to be parsed too.
So this patchset mainly addresses the requirements above with a very
very simple approach as a start: just allocate short-lived temporary
buffers all the time to keep compressed data if sub-page blocks are
identified. In other words, no inplace/cache decompression for
the preliminary support.
This patchset survives EROFS stress test on my own testfarms.
Thanks,
Gao Xiang
