Abstract
A computer implemented method of data compression using a hardware accelerator includes submitting a request to compress or decompress a data segment using a compression or decompression thread. The method also includes compressing or decompressing the data segment using a hardware accelerator, and performing inline polling of the hardware accelerator to determine whether the hardware accelerator has completed compressing or decompressing the data segment. The inline polling and the compressing or decompressing are performed in a single thread. The method also includes submitting a wakeup command to a segment thread in response to determining that the hardware accelerator has completed compressing or decompressing the data segment.
