Publication number: 20210089501Abstract: An electronic device, including a compression subsystem with a comparator, a history buffer, a match detector, and a command generator, performs operations for generating compressed data from original data. The compression subsystem, starting in each cycle of a clock, processes a search string that is copied from original data to generate commands for compressed data. For processing each search string, the comparator compares each of N sub strings from the search string with stored data from the history buffer to find matches between the substrings and the stored data. The match detector then determines a longest match for each of the substrings. The command generator next selectively outputs commands for the compressed data based on the longest matches for the substrings.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2019Publication date: March 25, 2021Inventor: Vinay Patel

Publication number: 20210067171Abstract: An electronic device for decompressing compressed data includes a decoding subsystem having a symbol decoder and a second symbol resolver with a number of local symbol decoders and a symbol selector. The symbol decoder decodes a first symbol from a first code for which a symbol is available in a block of the compressed data and communicates a length of the code to the second symbol resolver. Each local symbol decoder, substantially in parallel with the decoding of the first symbol in the symbol decoder, decodes a respective symbol from a first code for which a symbol is available in a respective sub-block of the block of the compressed data. The second symbol resolver selects, as a second symbol, based on the length received from the symbol decoder, one of the respective symbols from the local symbol decoders. The decoding subsystem then provides the first and second symbols.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2019Publication date: March 4, 2021Inventor: Vinay Patel

Publication number: 20210055932Abstract: An electronic device that includes a decompression engine that includes N decoders and a decompressor decompresses compressed input data that includes N streams of data. Upon receiving a command to decompress compressed input data, the decompression engine causes each of the N decoders to decode a respective one of the N streams from the compressed input data separately and substantially in parallel with others of the N decoders. Each decoder outputs a stream of decoded data of a respective type for generating commands associated with a compression standard for decompressing the compressed input data. The decompressor next generates, from the streams of decoded data output by the N decoders, commands for decompressing the data using the compression standard to recreate the original data. The decompressor next executes the commands to recreate the original data and stores the original data in a memory or provides the original data to another entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2019Publication date: February 25, 2021Inventor: Vinay Patel

Patent number: 10707897Abstract: An electronic device for decompressing compressed data to recreate original data includes a first string copy engine and a second string copy engine. The first string copy engine processes a first string copy command by acquiring a first string from recreated original data and appending the first string to the recreated original data. The second string copy engine processes a second string copy command by checking the second string copy command for a dependency on the first string and, when the dependency is found, stalling further processing of the second string copy command until the first string copy engine has appended a corresponding portion of the first string to the recreated original data. The second string copy engine processes the second string copy command by acquiring a second string from the recreated original data and appending the second string to the recreated original data.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2019Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC.Inventor: Vinay Patel
