Includes:
- Multi-sequence move-to-front
- Coding by id descriptor
- Statistical coding of non-id words
- Joint coding of opcode and num_operands
Removed explicit form Huffman codec constructor
- The standard use case for it is to be constructed from initializer list.
Using serialization for Huffman codecs
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.
