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. Levels >= 20, labelled `--ultra`, should be used with caution, as they require more memory. Compression can be done in: - a single step (described as Simple API) - a single step, reusing a context (described as Explicit memory management) - unbounded multiple steps (described as Streaming compression) 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) - a single step, reusing a dictionary (described as Fast dictionary API) 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. They are not "stable", their definition may change in the future. Only static linking is allowed. *********************************************************************************************************/ /*------ Version ------*/ ZSTDLIB_API unsigned ZSTD_versionNumber (void); /**< returns version number of ZSTD */ #define ZSTD_VERSION_MAJOR 1 #define ZSTD_VERSION_MINOR 1 #define ZSTD_VERSION_RELEASE 1 #define ZSTD_LIB_VERSION ZSTD_VERSION_MAJOR.ZSTD_VERSION_MINOR.ZSTD_VERSION_RELEASE #define ZSTD_QUOTE(str) #str #define ZSTD_EXPAND_AND_QUOTE(str) ZSTD_QUOTE(str) #define ZSTD_VERSION_STRING ZSTD_EXPAND_AND_QUOTE(ZSTD_LIB_VERSION) #define ZSTD_VERSION_NUMBER (ZSTD_VERSION_MAJOR *100*100 + ZSTD_VERSION_MINOR *100 + ZSTD_VERSION_RELEASE) /*************************************** * Simple API ***************************************/ /*!

It uses externally provided buffer only. - Interface is synchronous : input is consumed entirely and produce 1+ (or more) compressed blocks. - 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. 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.

Use ZSTD_createDCtx() / ZSTD_freeDCtx() to manage it. A ZSTD_DCtx object can be re-used multiple times. 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. errorCode, which can be tested using ZSTD_isError(). 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. 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. @result of ZSTD_decompressContinue() is the number of bytes regenerated within 'dst' (necessarily <= dstCapacity). 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(). 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, or that previous contiguous segment is large enough to properly handle maximum back-reference. A frame is fully decoded when ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() returns zero. Context can then be reset to start a new decompression. Note : it's possible to know if next input to present is a header or a block, using ZSTD_nextInputType(). This information is not required to properly decode a frame. == Special case : skippable frames == Skippable frames allow integration of user-defined data into a flow of concatenated frames. Skippable frames will be ignored (skipped) by a decompressor. The format of skippable frames is as follows : 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. */ typedef struct { unsigned long long frameContentSize; unsigned windowSize; unsigned dictID; unsigned checksumFlag; } ZSTD_frameParams; /*===== Buffer-less streaming decompression functions =====*/ ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_getFrameParams(ZSTD_frameParams* fparamsPtr, const void* src, size_t srcSize); /**< doesn't consume input, see details below */ ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_decompressBegin(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDict(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx, const void* dict, size_t dictSize); ZSTDLIB_API void ZSTD_copyDCtx(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx, const ZSTD_DCtx* preparedDCtx); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_decompressContinue(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx, void* dst, size_t dstCapacity, const void* src, size_t srcSize); typedef enum { ZSTDnit_frameHeader, ZSTDnit_blockHeader, ZSTDnit_block, ZSTDnit_lastBlock, ZSTDnit_checksum, ZSTDnit_skippableFrame } ZSTD_nextInputType_e; ZSTDLIB_API ZSTD_nextInputType_e ZSTD_nextInputType(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx); /** Block functions Block functions produce and decode raw zstd blocks, without frame metadata.

User will have to take in charge required information to regenerate data, such as compressed and content sizes. A few rules to respect : - Compressing and decompressing require a context structure + 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 - 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. - 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 + 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. */ #define ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_ABSOLUTEMAX (128 * 1024) /* define, for static allocation */ /*===== Raw zstd block functions =====*/ ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_getBlockSizeMax(ZSTD_CCtx* cctx); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_compressBlock (ZSTD_CCtx* cctx, void* dst, size_t dstCapacity, const void* src, size_t srcSize); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_decompressBlock(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx, void* dst, size_t dstCapacity, const void* src, size_t srcSize); ZSTDLIB_API size_t ZSTD_insertBlock(ZSTD_DCtx* dctx, const void* blockStart, size_t blockSize); /**< insert block into `dctx` history.
