* Illumos zfs issue #3035 [1] LZ4 compression support in ZFS. LZ4 is a new high-speed BSD-licensed compression algorithm created by Yann Collet that delivers very high compression and decompression performance compared to lzjb (>50% faster on compression, >80% faster on decompression and around 3x faster on compression of incompressible data), while giving better compression ratio [1]. This version of LZ4 corresponds to upstream's [2] revision 85. Please note that for obvious reasons this is not backward read compatible. This means once a pool have LZ4 compressed data, these data can no longer be read by older ZFS implementations. Local changes: - On-stack hash table disabled and using kernel slab allocator instead, at this time. This requires larger kernel thread stack for zio workers. This may change in the future should we adjusted the zio workers' thread stack size. - likely and unlikely will be undefined if they are already defined, this is required for i386 XEN build. - Removed De Bruijn sequence based __builtin_ctz family of builtins in favor of the latter. Both GCC and clang supports these builtins. - Changed the way the LZ4 code detects endianness. - Manual pages modifications to mention the feature based on Illumos counterpart. - Boot loader changes to make it support LZ4 decompression.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
