Updates the kernel's zstd library to v1.5.2, the latest zstd release.
The upstream tag it is updated to is `v1.5.2-kernel`, which contains
several cherry-picked commits on top of the v1.5.2 release which are
required for the kernel update. I will create this tag once the PR is
ready to merge, until then reference the temporary upstream branch
`v1.5.2-kernel-cherrypicks`.
I plan to submit this patch as part of the v6.2 merge window.
I've done basic build testing & testing on x86-64, i386, and aarch64.
I'm merging these patches into my `zstd-next` branch, which is pulled
into `linux-next` for further testing.
I've benchmarked BtrFS with zstd compression on a x86-64 machine, and
saw these results. Decompression speed is a small win across the board.
The lower compression levels 1-4 see both compression speed and
compression ratio wins. The higher compression levels see a small
compression speed loss and about neutral ratio. I expect the lower
compression levels to be used much more heavily than the high
compression levels, so this should be a net win.

`zstd_opt.c` contains the match finder for the highest compression
levels. These levels are already very slow, and are unlikely to be used
in the kernel. If they are used, they shouldn't be used in latency
sensitive workloads, so slowing them down shouldn't be a big deal.
This saves 188 KB of the 288 KB regression reported by Geert Uytterhoeven [0].
I've also opened an issue upstream [1] so that we can properly tackle
the code size issue in `zstd_opt.c` for all users, and can hopefully
remove this hack in the next zstd version we import.

The variable `litLengthSum` is only used by an `assert()`, so when
asserts are disabled the compiler doesn't see any usage and warns.
This issue is already fixed upstream by PR #2838 [0]. It was reported
by the Kernel test robot in [1].
Another approach would be to change zstd's disabled `assert()`
definition to use the argument in a disabled branch, instead of
ignoring the argument. I've avoided this approach because there are
some small changes necessary to get zstd to build, and I would
want to thoroughly re-test for performance, since that is slightly
changing the code in every function in zstd. It seems like a
trivial change, but some functions are pretty sensitive to small
changes. However, I think it is a valid approach that I would
like to see upstream take, so I've opened Issue #2868 to attempt
this upstream.
Lastly, I've chosen not to use __maybe_unused because all code
in lib/zstd/ must eventually be upstreamed. Upstream zstd can't
use __maybe_unused because it isn't portable across all compilers.

Upgrade to the latest upstream zstd version 1.4.10.
This patch is 100% generated from upstream zstd commit 20821a46f412 [0].
This patch is very large because it is transitioning from the custom
kernel zstd to using upstream directly. The new zstd follows upstreams
file structure which is different. Future update patches will be much
smaller because they will only contain the changes from one upstream
zstd release.
As an aid for review I've created a commit [1] that shows the diff
between upstream zstd as-is (which doesn't compile), and the zstd
code imported in this patch. The verion of zstd in this patch is
generated from upstream with changes applied by automation to replace
upstreams libc dependencies, remove unnecessary portability macros,
replace `/**` comments with `/*` comments, and use the kernel's xxhash
instead of bundling it.
The benefits of this patch are as follows:
1. Using upstream directly with automated script to generate kernel
code. This allows us to update the kernel every upstream release, so
the kernel gets the latest bug fixes and performance improvements,
and doesn't get 3 years out of date again. The automation and the
translated code are tested every upstream commit to ensure it
continues to work.
2. Upgrades from a custom zstd based on 1.3.1 to 1.4.10, getting 3 years
of performance improvements and bug fixes. On x86_64 I've measured
15% faster BtrFS and SquashFS decompression+read speeds, 35% faster
kernel decompression, and 30% faster ZRAM decompression+read speeds.
3. Zstd-1.4.10 supports negative compression levels, which allow zstd to
match or subsume lzo's performance.
4. Maintains the same kernel-specific wrapper API, so no callers have to
be modified with zstd version updates.
One concern that was brought up was stack usage. Upstream zstd had
already removed most of its heavy stack usage functions, but I just
removed the last functions that allocate arrays on the stack. I've
measured the high water mark for both compression and decompression
before and after this patch. Decompression is approximately neutral,
using about 1.2KB of stack space. Compression levels up to 3 regressed
from 1.4KB -> 1.6KB, and higher compression levels regressed from 1.5KB
-> 2KB. We've added unit tests upstream to prevent further regression.
I believe that this is a reasonable increase, and if it does end up
causing problems, this commit can be cleanly reverted, because it only
touches zstd.
I chose the bulk update instead of replaying upstream commits because
there have been ~3500 upstream commits since the 1.3.1 release, zstd
wasn't ready to be used in the kernel as-is before a month ago, and not
all upstream zstd commits build. The bulk update preserves bisectablity
because bugs can be bisected to the zstd version update. At that point
the update can be reverted, and we can work with upstream to find and
fix the bug.
Note that upstream zstd release 1.4.10 doesn't exist yet. I have cut a
staging branch at 20821a46f412 [0] and will apply any changes requested
to the staging branch. Once we're ready to merge this update I will cut
a zstd release at the commit we merge, so we have a known zstd release
in the kernel.
The implementation of the kernel API is contained in
zstd_compress_module.c and zstd_decompress_module.c.
