- building cli from /tests preserves potential flags in MOREFLAGS (such as asan/usan)
- MT dictionary tests check for MT capability (MT is not enabled by default for zstd32)
windowLog is now enforced from provided compression parameters,
instead of being copied blindly from `cdict`
where it could be smaller.
also :
- fix a minor bug in zstreamtest --mt : advanced parameters must be set before init
- changed advanced parameter name to ZSTDMT_jobSize
-ftrapv is apparently buggy for gcc.
versions >= 5 are supposed to work better,
but even then, some complaints say it's still flaky when optimizations are enabled.
I even saw a post saying it only works if one creates its own signal handler,
which would make this flag no longer transparent.
on clang, it seems to work correctly.
But we would need to add a method to selectively add flags depending on compiler.
That's too much troubles for the intended benefit
(just catch integer overflows, which we can also do using ubsan).
merging of repcode search into btsearch introduced a small compression ratio regressio at max level :
1.3.2 : 52728769
after repMerge patch : 52760789 (+32020)
A few minor changes have produced this difference.
They can be hard to spot.
This patch buys back about half of the difference,
by no longer inserting position at hc3 when a long match is found there.
It feels strangely counter-intuitive, but works :
after this patch : 52742555 (-18234)
Fixed : multithreading to compress some small data with dictionary
Fixed : ZSTD_initCStream_usingCDict()
Improved streaming memory usage when pledgedSrcSize is known.
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.
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.
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.
