Field Documentation

dict_size

sqfs_u32 dict_size

LZMA dictionary size.

This value must either be a power of two or the sum of two consecutive powers of two.

Default is setting this to the same as the block size.

lc

sqfs_u8 lc

Number of literal context bits.

How many of the highest bits of the previous uncompressed byte to take into account when predicting the bits of the next byte.

The sum lc + lp must be at MOST 4. Default value of lc is 3.

lp

sqfs_u8 lp

Number of literal position bits.

lp affects what kind of alignment in the uncompressed data is assumed when encoding bytes. See pb below for more information about alignment.

The sum lc + lp must be at MOST 4. Default value of lp is 0.

pb

sqfs_u8 pb

Number of position bits.

This is the log2 of the assumed underlying alignment of the input data, i.e. pb=0 means single byte allignment, pb=1 means 16 bit, 2 means 32 bit.

When the alignment is known, setting pb may reduce the file size.

The default value is 2, i.e. 32 bit alignment.
