added some traces and assert
related to hunting a potential ubsan error in 32-bits more
(it ends up being a compiler-side issue : https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82802).
Modified one pointer arithmetic expression for a more conformant way.
as per documentation, on ZSTD_setPledgedSrcSize() :
> If all data is provided and consumed in a single round,
> this value (pledgedSrcSize) is overriden by srcSize instead.
This wasn't applied before compression level is transformed into compression parameters.
As a consequence, small input missed compression parameters adaptation.
It seems to work fine now : compression was compared with ZSTD_compress_advanced(),
results were the same.
ZSTD_compress() and friends would treat an empty input as an unknown size
when selecting parameters. Thus, they would drastically overallocate the
context. Tell ZSTD_getParams() that the source size is 1 when it is empty.
we lose a warning message :
when a job size is chosen < minimum job size for multithreading,
it is automatically resized to minimum size.
If this information is really useful, it should be present in zstd.h now.
removed the other 2 code paths (single thread, and ZSTDMT ones)
keeping only the new advanced API, for easier code coverage.
It shall also fix identified issue with Visual Studio
which doesn't have ZSTD_NEWAPI defined.
it was invoking ZSTD_initCStream_advanced() with pledgedSrcSize==0 and contentSizeFlag=1
which means "empty"
while the intention was to mean "unknown".
The contentSizeFlag==1 is new, it is a consequence of setting this value to 1 by default.
The solution selected here is to pass ZSTD_CONTENTSIZE_UNKNOWN to mean "unknown".
So contentSizeFlag remains set (it wasn't in previous versions).
UTIL_getFileSize() used to return zero on failure.
This made it impossible to distinguish a failure from a genuine empty file.
Both cases where coalesced.
Adding UTIL_FILESIZE_UNKNOWN constant has many consequences on user code,
since in many places, the `0` was assumed to mean "error".
This is no longer the case, and the error code must be actively checked.
It was multiple reasons stacked :
- Visual use a different code path, because ZSTD_NEWAPI is not defined
- fileio.c sends `0` as `pledgedSrcSize` to mean `ZSTD_CONTENTSIZE_UNKNOWN` (fixed)
- ZSTDMT_resetCCtx() interpreted `0` as "empty" instead of "unknown" (fixed)
It isn't useful in any case to repeat default tables.
Saves a few bytes on Silesia, since we don't trigger the dictionary
heuristic.
Before: 211988480 => 73651998 bytes
After: 211988480 => 73651721 bytes
when determining compression parameters
to compress one file only.
For multiple files, it still "bets" that files are going to be small.
There was also a bug recently added in ZSTD_CCtx_loadDictionary_advanced()
making it incapable to use pledgedSrcSize to determine compression parameters.
to mean "pledgedSrcSize is not known at init time" instead of `0`.
Note that, a few prototypes created and documented with `0` to mean "unknown" still interpret "0" as unknown,
to avoid breaking 3rd party applications which depend on this behavior.
But this value is no longer recommended to mean "unknown".
In some future version, it might be possible to switch "0" to mean "empty",
as is already the case for several prototypes.
The advantage is that pledgedSrcSize field would have same behavior accross entire API,
making it easier to reason about.
Note that all concerned prototypes belong to the "experimental" API section.
srcSize is controlled at end of compression,
so if someone uses "0" to mean "unknown" while it effectively means "empty",
this is immediately caught by the compression function, which generates an error code : ZSTD_ERROR_srcSize_wrong
