Introduction
2016-10-25 00:22:12 +00:00
zstd , short for Zstandard , is a fast lossless compression algorithm , targeting real - time compression scenarios
2016-10-06 14:28:21 +00:00
at zlib - level and better compression ratios . The zstd compression library provides in - memory compression and
decompression functions . The library supports compression levels from 1 up to ZSTD_maxCLevel ( ) which is 22.
2016-10-25 00:22:12 +00:00
Levels > = 20 , labelled ` - - ultra ` , should be used with caution , as they require more memory .
2016-10-06 14:28:21 +00:00
Compression can be done in :
- a single step ( described as Simple API )
- a single step , reusing a context ( described as Explicit memory management )
2016-10-25 00:22:12 +00:00
- unbounded multiple steps ( described as Streaming compression )
2016-10-06 14:28:21 +00:00
The compression ratio achievable on small data can be highly improved using compression with a dictionary in :
- a single step ( described as Simple dictionary API )
2016-10-24 13:59:51 +00:00
- a single step , reusing a dictionary ( described as Fast dictionary API )
2016-10-06 14:28:21 +00:00
2016-10-25 00:22:12 +00:00
Advanced experimental functions can be accessed using # define ZSTD_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY before including zstd . h .
These APIs shall never be used with a dynamic library .
2016-10-06 14:28:21 +00:00
They are not " stable " , their definition may change in the future . Only static linking is allowed .

* Streaming decompression - HowTo
2016-08-19 16:39:36 +00:00
*
* A ZSTD_DStream object is required to track streaming operations .
* Use ZSTD_createDStream ( ) and ZSTD_freeDStream ( ) to create / release resources .
2016-08-23 14:58:10 +00:00
* ZSTD_DStream objects can be re - used multiple times .
2016-08-19 16:39:36 +00:00
*
* Use ZSTD_initDStream ( ) to start a new decompression operation ,
* or ZSTD_initDStream_usingDict ( ) if decompression requires a dictionary .
2016-09-05 17:47:43 +00:00
* @ return : recommended first input size
2016-08-19 16:39:36 +00:00
*
* Use ZSTD_decompressStream ( ) repetitively to consume your input .
2016-09-05 15:39:56 +00:00
* The function will update both ` pos ` fields .
2016-09-09 14:44:16 +00:00
* If ` input . pos < input . size ` , some input has not been consumed .
2016-09-06 03:16:40 +00:00
* It ' s up to the caller to present again remaining data .
2016-09-09 14:44:16 +00:00
* If ` output . pos < output . size ` , decoder has flushed everything it could .
2016-08-19 16:39:36 +00:00
* @ return : 0 when a frame is completely decoded and fully flushed ,
2016-09-05 15:39:56 +00:00
* an error code , which can be tested using ZSTD_isError ( ) ,
2016-12-03 02:37:38 +00:00
* any other value > 0 , which means there is still some decoding to do to complete current frame .
* The return value is a suggested next input size ( a hint to improve latency ) that will never load more than the current frame .

A ZSTD_CCtx object is required to track streaming operations .
2016-06-14 11:46:11 +00:00
Use ZSTD_createCCtx ( ) / ZSTD_freeCCtx ( ) to manage resource .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
ZSTD_CCtx object can be re - used multiple times within successive compression operations .
Start by initializing a context .
Use ZSTD_compressBegin ( ) , or ZSTD_compressBegin_usingDict ( ) for dictionary compression ,
or ZSTD_compressBegin_advanced ( ) , for finer parameter control .
It ' s also possible to duplicate a reference context which has already been initialized , using ZSTD_copyCCtx ( )
Then , consume your input using ZSTD_compressContinue ( ) .
2016-06-21 09:54:03 +00:00
There are some important considerations to keep in mind when using this advanced function :
- ZSTD_compressContinue ( ) has no internal buffer . It uses externally provided buffer only .
2016-07-28 13:29:08 +00:00
- Interface is synchronous : input is consumed entirely and produce 1 + ( or more ) compressed blocks .
2016-06-21 09:54:03 +00:00
- Caller must ensure there is enough space in ` dst ` to store compressed data under worst case scenario .
Worst case evaluation is provided by ZSTD_compressBound ( ) .
ZSTD_compressContinue ( ) doesn ' t guarantee recover after a failed compression .
- ZSTD_compressContinue ( ) presumes prior input * * * is still accessible and unmodified * * * ( up to maximum distance size , see WindowLog ) .
It remembers all previous contiguous blocks , plus one separated memory segment ( which can itself consists of multiple contiguous blocks )
- ZSTD_compressContinue ( ) detects that prior input has been overwritten when ` src ` buffer overlaps .
In which case , it will " discard " the relevant memory section from its history .
2016-07-28 13:29:08 +00:00
Finish a frame with ZSTD_compressEnd ( ) , which will write the last block ( s ) and optional checksum .
It ' s possible to use a NULL , 0 src content , in which case , it will write a final empty block to end the frame ,
Without last block mark , frames will be considered unfinished ( broken ) by decoders .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
2016-06-21 09:54:03 +00:00
You can then reuse ` ZSTD_CCtx ` ( ZSTD_compressBegin ( ) ) to compress some new frame .

A ZSTD_DCtx object is required to track streaming operations .
Use ZSTD_createDCtx ( ) / ZSTD_freeDCtx ( ) to manage it .
A ZSTD_DCtx object can be re - used multiple times .
2016-07-29 17:40:37 +00:00
First typical operation is to retrieve frame parameters , using ZSTD_getFrameParams ( ) .
It fills a ZSTD_frameParams structure which provide important information to correctly decode the frame ,
such as the minimum rolling buffer size to allocate to decompress data ( ` windowSize ` ) ,
and the dictionary ID used .
( Note : content size is optional , it may not be present . 0 means : content size unknown ) .
Note that these values could be wrong , either because of data malformation , or because an attacker is spoofing deliberate false information .
As a consequence , check that values remain within valid application range , especially ` windowSize ` , before allocation .
Each application can set its own limit , depending on local restrictions . For extended interoperability , it is recommended to support at least 8 MB .
Frame parameters are extracted from the beginning of the compressed frame .
Data fragment must be large enough to ensure successful decoding , typically ` ZSTD_frameHeaderSize_max ` bytes .
@ result : 0 : successful decoding , the ` ZSTD_frameParams ` structure is correctly filled .
> 0 : ` srcSize ` is too small , please provide at least @ result bytes on next attempt .
2016-07-28 01:47:45 +00:00
errorCode , which can be tested using ZSTD_isError ( ) .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
Start decompression , with ZSTD_decompressBegin ( ) or ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDict ( ) .
Alternatively , you can copy a prepared context , using ZSTD_copyDCtx ( ) .
Then use ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress ( ) and ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) alternatively .
2016-07-29 17:40:37 +00:00
ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress ( ) tells how many bytes to provide as ' srcSize ' to ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) .
ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) requires this _exact_ amount of bytes , or it will fail .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
2016-06-04 18:17:38 +00:00
@ result of ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) is the number of bytes regenerated within ' dst ' ( necessarily < = dstCapacity ) .
2016-07-29 17:40:37 +00:00
It can be zero , which is not an error ; it just means ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) has decoded some metadata item .
It can also be an error code , which can be tested with ZSTD_isError ( ) .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
2016-07-08 21:42:22 +00:00
ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) needs previous data blocks during decompression , up to ` windowSize ` .
They should preferably be located contiguously , prior to current block .
Alternatively , a round buffer of sufficient size is also possible . Sufficient size is determined by frame parameters .
ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) is very sensitive to contiguity ,
if 2 blocks don ' t follow each other , make sure that either the compressor breaks contiguity at the same place ,
2016-07-28 01:47:45 +00:00
or that previous contiguous segment is large enough to properly handle maximum back - reference .
2016-07-08 21:42:22 +00:00
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
A frame is fully decoded when ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress ( ) returns zero .
Context can then be reset to start a new decompression .
2016-07-28 18:30:25 +00:00
Note : it ' s possible to know if next input to present is a header or a block , using ZSTD_nextInputType ( ) .
2016-07-29 17:40:37 +00:00
This information is not required to properly decode a frame .
2016-07-08 21:42:22 +00:00

2016-07-08 21:42:22 +00:00
2016-07-28 01:47:45 +00:00
Skippable frames allow integration of user - defined data into a flow of concatenated frames .
2016-07-27 23:17:22 +00:00
Skippable frames will be ignored ( skipped ) by a decompressor . The format of skippable frames is as follows :
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
a ) Skippable frame ID - 4 Bytes , Little endian format , any value from 0x184D2A50 to 0x184D2A5F
b ) Frame Size - 4 Bytes , Little endian format , unsigned 32 - bits
c ) Frame Content - any content ( User Data ) of length equal to Frame Size
For skippable frames ZSTD_decompressContinue ( ) always returns 0.
For skippable frames ZSTD_getFrameParams ( ) returns fparamsPtr - > windowLog = = 0 what means that a frame is skippable .
It also returns Frame Size as fparamsPtr - > frameContentSize .

Block functions
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
2016-10-06 11:23:52 +00:00
Block functions produce and decode raw zstd blocks , without frame metadata .
2016-07-18 14:52:10 +00:00
Frame metadata cost is typically ~ 18 bytes , which can be non - negligible for very small blocks ( < 100 bytes ) .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
User will have to take in charge required information to regenerate data , such as compressed and content sizes .
A few rules to respect :
2016-07-06 18:30:52 +00:00
- Compressing and decompressing require a context structure
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
+ Use ZSTD_createCCtx ( ) and ZSTD_createDCtx ( )
- It is necessary to init context before starting
+ compression : ZSTD_compressBegin ( )
+ decompression : ZSTD_decompressBegin ( )
+ variants _usingDict ( ) are also allowed
+ copyCCtx ( ) and copyDCtx ( ) work too
2016-07-18 14:52:10 +00:00
- Block size is limited , it must be < = ZSTD_getBlockSizeMax ( )
+ If you need to compress more , cut data into multiple blocks
+ Consider using the regular ZSTD_compress ( ) instead , as frame metadata costs become negligible when source size is large .
2016-06-04 17:47:02 +00:00
- When a block is considered not compressible enough , ZSTD_compressBlock ( ) result will be zero .
In which case , nothing is produced into ` dst ` .
+ User must test for such outcome and deal directly with uncompressed data
2016-07-06 18:30:52 +00:00
+ ZSTD_decompressBlock ( ) doesn ' t accept uncompressed data as input ! ! !
+ In case of multiple successive blocks , decoder must be informed of uncompressed block existence to follow proper history .
Use ZSTD_insertBlock ( ) in such a case .
