In the new advanced API, adjust the parameters even if they are explicitly
set. This mainly applies to the `windowLog`, and accordingly the `hashLog`
and `chainLog`, when the source size is known.
IS_CONSOLE stolen wholesale from Options.cpp
not sure if i should have extracted that code for DRY-ness
tested in OSX and functionality seems appropriate
unstested in a windows environment
unistd.h is for unix standard tools.
There does not appear to be a simple isatty for windows
this we only run the logic and header include in
non-windows environments
FIO would keep presenting data after an LZ4F decoding error
resulting in a NULL pointer dereference
when associated with older liblz4 version (< v1.8.1.2)
this makes it possible to specify extremely large negative compression levels,
achieving the side effect as "no compression".
It will also be possible to define larger targetlength for ultra compression mode.
There is no adverse side effect due to removing this limit.
* Replaced a non-breaking space and an en dash with a plain space and
a hyphen.
* This means the files are simple ASCII and less likely to run into
codepage issues.
- do not test level 0, as it is converted into level 3,
which feels strange when compressing multiple levels
- Use direct synchronous mode when a single worker is requested.
access negative compression levels from command line
for both compression and benchmark modes.
also : ensure proper propagation of parameters
through ZSTD_compress_generic() interface.
added relevant cli tests.
zstd bench module can focus on decompression speed _only_.
This is useful when trying to measure performance
on large input data compressed using a high level
as compression time becomes problematic (too long).
This mode is triggered by command : zstd -b -d
Problem was : in such a mode,
measured decoding speed was > 10% slower
than in nominal mode (compression + decompression),
making decompression benchmark mode much less useful.
This patch fixes the issue.
It's not completely clear why, but
moving the `memcpy()` operation sooner in the pipeline fixed it.
I can still measure some difference, but it is in the < 2% range,
so it's much more tolerable.
also : it doesn't matter anymore in which order are selected
commands `-b` and `-d`.
The combination always triggers bench_decodeOnly mode.
