Ensures that Aarch32 Arm builds with an Armv8 compiler do not set BROTLI_64_BITS. This scenario is possible with ChromeOS builds, as they may use a toolchain with the target armv7-cros-gnueabi, but with -march=armv8. This will set __ARM_ARCH to 8 (defining BROTLI_TARGET_ARMV8), but will also set __ARM_32BIT_STATE and not __ARM_64BIT_STATE. Without this, illegal 64-bit non-word-aligned reads (LDRD) may be emitted. Also fix unaligned 64-bit reads on AArch32 - STRD was still possible to emit. |

Introduction
Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.
The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932.
Brotli is open-sourced under the MIT License, see the LICENSE file.

Build instructions
Autotools-style CMake
configure-cmake is an autotools-style configure script for CMake-based projects (not supported on Windows).
The basic commands to build, test and install brotli are:
$ mkdir out && cd out
$ ../configure-cmake
$ make
$ make test
$ make install
By default, debug binaries are built. To generate "release" Makefile specify --disable-debug option to configure-cmake.
Bazel
See Bazel
CMake
The basic commands to build and install brotli are:
$ mkdir out && cd out
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=./installed ..
$ cmake --build . --config Release --target install
You can use other CMake configuration.
Premake5
See Premake5
Python
To install the latest release of the Python module, run the following:
$ pip install brotli
To install the tip-of-the-tree version, run:
$ pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/google/brotli
See the Python readme for more details on installing from source, development, and testing.
