Fixed width encoding is intended to be used for small unsigned integers
when the upper bound is known both to the encoder and the decoder
(for example move-to-front rank).
Command line application is located at tools/spirv-markv
API at include/spirv-tools/markv.h
At the moment only very basic compression is implemented, mostly varint.
Scope of supported SPIR-V opcodes is also limited.
Using a simple move-to-front implementation instead of encoding mapped
ids.
Work in progress:
- Does not cover all of SPIR-V
- Does not promise compatibility of compression/decompression across
different versions of the code.
