Improve imgdiff for large zip files
Due to the cache size limit for OTA generation, we used to split large zip files linearly into pieces and do bsdiff on them. As a result, i) we lose the advantage of imgdiff; ii) if there's an accidental order change of some huge files inside the zip, we'll create an insanely large patch. This patch splits the src&tgt more smartly based on the zip entry_name. If the entry_name is empty or no matching source is found for a target chunk, we'll skip adding its source and later do a bsdiff against the whole split source image (this rarely happens in our use cases except for the metadata inside a ziparchive). After the split, the target pieces are continuous and block aligned, while the sources pieces are mutually exclusive. (Some of the source blocks may not be used if there's no matching entry_name in the target.) Then we will generate patches accordingly between each split image pairs. Afterwards, if we apply imgpatch to each pair of split source/target images and add up the patched result, we can get back the original target image. For example: Input: [src_image, tgt_image] Split: [src-0,tgt-0; src-1,tgt-1, src-2,tgt-2] Diff: [ patch-0; patch-1; patch-2] Patch: [(src-0,patch-0)=tgt-0; (src-1,patch-1)=tgt-1; (src-2,patch-2)=tgt-2;] Append: [tgt-0 + tgt-1 + tgt-2 = tgt_image] Peformance: For the small package in b/34220646, we decrease the patch size of chrome.apk dramatically from 30M to 400K due to the order change of two big .so files. On two versions of angler, I also observe decent patch size decrease. For chrome.apk, we reduced the size from 5.9M to 3.2M; and for vevlet.apk from 8.0M to 6.5M. Bug: 34220646 Test: recovery component test && apply imgdiff & imgpatch on two chrome.apk Change-Id: I145d802984fa805efbbac9d01a2e64d82ef9728b
