[lc-devel] WKdm Problem

[Nitin G. <nit...@gm...>]

Hi,
    I was testing WKdm de/compression algo and surprisingly it's not
working!! The de-compressed and original text do not match. Rodrigo's
patch contains exactly this algorithm implementation (did he make some
changes which I can't see?) and it works (though, I never myself tried
that patch).
    Can somebody please look into WKdm implementation
(http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/oops/compressed-caching/WKdm.tgz) and
tell what's wrong?

(WK4x4 seems to work okay, while LZO is pain in neck to get it into
kernel...so I've dropped LZO idea for now).

WKdm is fastest with nice compression ratios so it'll be nice to have
it working instead of WK4x4 (we can always include both -or more- of
them later but for now.....).


Cheers,
Nitin
