now ZSTD_customCMem is promoted as new default.
Advantages : ZSTD_customCMem = { NULL, NULL, NULL},
so it's natural default after a memset.
ZSTD_customCMem is public constant
(defaultCustomMem was private only).
Also : makes it possible to introduce ZSTD_calloc(),
which can now default to stdlib's calloc()
when it detects system default.
Fixed zlibwrapper which depended on defaultCustomMem.
memset() was a quick fix to initialization problems,
but initialize too much space (tables, buffers)
which show up in decompression speed of ZSTD_decompress()
since it needs to recreate DCtx at each invocation.
Fixed by only initialization relevant pointers and size fields.
They are now the same object.
It's recommended to keep both types in source code
as previous versions of library (<v1.3.0)
still need this differentiation.
ZSTD_frameParams => ZSTD_frameHeader
ZSTD_getFrameParams() -> ZSTD_getFrameHeader()
The new naming is more distinctive from ZSTD_frameParameters,
which is used during compression.
ZSTD_frameHeader is clearer in its intention to described frame header content.
It also implies we are decoding a ZSTD frame, hence we are at decoding stage.
This decoder variant is detrimental to x86 architecture
likely due to register pressure.
Note that the variant is disabled for all 32-bits targets.
It's unclear if it would help for different architectures,
such as ARM, MIPS or PowerPC.
XXH_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY protection macro is intended to be triggered just before the include.
The main idea is to keep this setting local :
user module shall explicitly understand and accept the static linking restriction
which becomes transparent when triggering the macro at project level.
Global definition also triggers redefinition warnings for user modules which do locally define the macro.
This new version compiles lib and cli without warning when the macro is set globally.
That's not a scenario to be recommended, since it trades a local effect for a global one,
but it was easy enough to provide from zstd side.
When ZSTD_decompressStream() detects
that there is enough space in dst
to complete decompression in a single pass,
delegates to ZSTD_decompress(),
for an extra ~5% speed boost
- Add ZSTD_findDecompressedSize
- Traverses multiple frames to find total output size
- Add ZSTD_getFrameContentSize
- Gets the decompressed size of a single frame by reading header
- Deprecate ZSTD_getDecompressedSize
execSequence relied on pointer overflow to handle cases where
`sequence.matchLength < 8`. Instead of passing an `size_t` to
wildcopy, pass a `ptrdiff_t`.
Allows an adversary to write up to 3 bytes beyond the end of the buffer.
Occurs if the match overlaps the `extDict` and `currentPrefix`, and the
match length in the `currentPrefix` is less than `MINMATCH`, and
`op-(16-MINMATCH) >= oMatchEnd > op-16`.
The zstd reference compressor will not emit a match in the last 7
bytes of a block. The decompressor will also not accept a match
in the last 7 bytes. This patch makes the decompressor accept a
match in the last 7 bytes.

`memmove(op, match, sequence.matchLength)` is not the desired behavior.
Overlap is allowed, and handled as if we did `*op++ = *match++`, which
is not how `memmove()` handles overlap.
Only triggered if both of the following conditions are met:
* The match spans extDict & currentPrefixSegment
* `oLitEnd <= oend_w < oLitEnd + length1 < oMatchEnd <= oend`.
These two conditions imply that the block is less than 15 bytes long.
This bug isn't triggered by the streaming API, because it allocates
enough space for the window size + the block size, so there cannot be
a match that is within 8 bytes of the end and overlaps with itself.
It cannot be triggered by the block decompression API because all of
the decompressed data is in the currentPrefixSegment.
Introduced by commit 7158584399
Caused by two things:
1. Not checking that `ip` is in range except for the first byte.
2. `ZSTDv0{5,6}_decodeLiteralsBlock()` could return a value larger than `srcSize`.
