Abstract
The invention introduces a method for accelerating compression, performed by configuration logic of a compression accelerator, containing: obtaining an input parameter from a processor core; obtaining a configuration setting from a compression parameter table according to the input parameter; configuring hardware coupled between a first buffer and a second buffer to form a data transmission path according to the input parameter, wherein the first buffer stores raw data; and transmitting the configuration setting to devices on the data transmission path for processing the raw data to generate compressed data and storing the compressed data in the second buffer.
