Abstract

A decompression apparatus includes a cache memory and a decoder. The decoder is to receive a compressed input data stream including literals and matches. Each literal represents a data value, and each match represents a respective sequence of literals by a respective offset pointing to a respective past occurrence of the sequence of literals. The decoder is to decompress the input data stream by replacing each match with the corresponding past occurrence, so as to produce an output data stream. In replacing a given match with the corresponding past occurrence, the decoder is to (i) when the offset indicates that the past occurrence is cached in the cache memory, retrieve the past occurrence from the cache memory, and (ii) when the offset indicates that the past occurrence is not contained in the cache memory, fetch the past occurrence from an external memory.
