-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.
It would previously exit when srcSize is unknown.
But in the case of custom parameters,
hLog and cLog can still be too large in comparison with windowLog.
Reduces maximum memory allocated during zstreamtest --newapi
It does not feel "right" from a dependency perspective.
ZSTD_initDCtx_internal() is triggered once, on DCtx creation,
while ZSTD_decompressBegin() is invoked at the beginning of each new frame,
and is also a user-facing prototype.
Downside : a DCtx must be init before first usage !
This was always the intention by the way, and is documented as such.
This stage is automatically done within ZSTD_decompress() and variants,
and also within ZSTD_decompressStream().
Only ZSTD_decompressContinue() is impacted,
it must be preceded by a ZSTD_decompressBegin(), as detailed in doc.
A test has been fixed, to no longer rely on undocumented assumption that ZSTD_decompressBegin() is invoked during init.
decoder output buffer would receive a wrong size.
In previous version, ZSTD_decompressStream() would blindly trust the caller that pos <= size.
In this version, this condition is actively checked,
and the function returns an error code if this condition is not respected.
This check could also be done with an assert(),
but since this is a user-facing interface, it seems better to keep this check at runtime.
* Enforce smaller maximum values for parameters
* Adjust parameters to the source size
The memory usage is reduced by about 5x, which makes the fuzzers run at
least twice as fast, even more so with ASAN/MSAN enabled.
* Maximum window size in 32-bit mode is 1GB, since allocations for 2GB fail
on my Mac.
* Maximum window size in 64-bit mode is 2GB, since that is the largest
power of 2 that works with the overflow prevention.
* Allow `--long=windowLog` to set the window log, along with
`--zstd=wlog=#`. These options also set the window size during
decompression, but don't override `--memory=#` if it is set.
* Present a helpful error message when the window size is too large during
decompression.
* The long range matcher defaults to a hash log 7 less than the window log,
which keeps it at 20 for window log 27.
* Keep the default long range matcher window size and the default maximum
window size at 27 for the API and CLI.
* Add tests that use the maximum window size and hash size for compression
and decompression.
for easier invocation.
- no longer expose frequency timer :
it's either useless, or stored internally in a static variable (init is only necessary once).
- UTIL_getTime() provides result by function return.
