- promoted LZ4_resetStream_fast() to stable
- moved LZ4_resetStream() into deprecate, but without triggering a compiler warning
- update all sources to no longer rely on LZ4_resetStream()
note : LZ4_initStream() proposal is slightly different :
it's able to initialize any buffer, provided that it's large enough.
To this end, it accepts a void*, and returns an LZ4_stream_t*.
- promoted LZ4_resetStreamHC_fast() to stable
- moved LZ4_resetStreamHC() to deprecated (but do not generate a warning yet)
- Updated doc, to highlight difference between init and reset
- switched all invocations of LZ4_resetStreamHC() onto LZ4_initStreamHC()
- misc: ensure `make all` also builds /tests
The previous change broke decoding with a ring buffer. That's because
I didn't realize that the "double dictionary mode" was possible, i.e.
that the decoding routine can look both at the first part of the
dictionary passed as prefix and the second part passed via dictStart+dictSize.
So this change introduces the LZ4_decompress_safe_doubleDict helper,
which handles this "double dictionary" situation. (This is a bit of
a misnomer, there is only one dictionary, but I can't think of a better
name, and perhaps the designation is not all too bad.) The helper is
used only once, in LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, it should be inlined
with LZ4_FORCE_O2_GCC_PPC64LE attached to LZ4_decompress_safe_continue.
(Also, in the helper functions, I change the dictStart parameter type
to "const void*", to avoid a cast when calling helpers. In the helpers,
the upcast to "BYTE*" is still required, for compatibility with C++.)
So this fixes the case of LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, and I'm
surprised by the fact that the fuzzer is now happy and does not detect
a similar problem with LZ4_decompress_fast_continue. So before fixing
LZ4_decompress_fast_continue, the next logical step is to enhance
the fuzzer.
