Linearly back off the frequency of overflow correction based on the
number of times the `ZSTD_window_t` has been overflow corrected. This
will still allow the fuzzer to quickly find overflow correction bugs,
while also keeping good speed for larger inputs.
Additionally, the `nbOverflowCorrections` variable can be useful for
debugging coredumps, since we can inspect the `ZSTD_CCtx` to see if
overflow correction has happened yet.
I've verified this fixes the timeouts in OSS-Fuzz (176 seconds -> 6
seconds). I've also verified that fuzzers and `fuzzer` and `zstreamtest`
still catch the row-hash overflow correction bug.
The FAQ covers the questions asked in Issue #2566. It first covers why
you would want to use a dictionary, then what a dictionary is, and
finally it tells you how to train a dictionary, and clarifies some of
the parameters.
There is definitely more that could be said about some of the advanced
trainers, but this should be a good start.
This flag forces zstd to always load the prefix in ext-dict mode, even
if it happens to be contiguous, to force determinism. It also applies to
dictionaries that are re-processed.
A determinism test case is also added, which fails without
`ZSTD_c_deterministicRefPrefix` and passes with it set.
Question: Should this be the default behavior? It isn't in this PR.
benchmark results are not progressively displayed on Windows terminal.
For long benchmark sessions, nothing is displayed,
until the end, where everything is flushed.
Force display to be flushed after each update.
Updates happen roughtly every second, or even less,
so it's not a substantial workload.
* Take `params` by const reference in `ZSTD_resetCCtx_internal()`.
* Add `simpleApiParams` to the CCtx and use them in the simple API
functions, instead of creating those parameters on the stack.
I think this is a good direction to move in, because we shouldn't need
to worry about adding parameters to `ZSTD_CCtx_params`, since it should
always be on the heap (unless they become absoultely gigantic).
Some `ZSTD_CCtx_params` are still on the stack in the CDict functions,
but I've left them for now, because it was a little more complex, and we
don't use those functions in stack-constrained currently.
`open()`'s mode bits are only applied to files that are created by the call.
If the output file already exists, but is not readable, the `fopen()` would
fail, preventing us from removing it, which would mean that the file would
not end up with the correct permission bits.
It's not clear to me why the `fopen()` is there at all. `UTIL_isRegularFile()`
should be sufficient, AFAICT.
pipeline increased from 4 to 8 slots.
This change substantially improves decompression speed when there are long distance offsets.
example with enwik9 compressed at level 22 :
gcc-9 : 947 -> 1039 MB/s
clang-10: 884 -> 946 MB/s
I also checked the "cold dictionary" scenario,
and found a smaller benefit, around ~2%
(measurements are more noisy for this scenario).
* seekable_format: fix from-file reading (not in-memory)
It tries to check the buffer boundary, but there is no buffer for
from-file reading.
* seekable_decompression: break when ZSTD_seekable_decompress() returns zero
* seekable_decompression_mem: break when ZSTD_seekable_decompress() returns zero
* seekable_format: cap the offset+len up to the last dOffset
This will allow to read the whole file w/o gotting corruption error if
the offset is more then the data left in file, i.e.:
$ ./seekable_compression seekable_compression.c 8192 | head
$ zstd -cdq seekable_compression.c.zst | wc -c
4737
Before this patch:
$ ./seekable_decompression seekable_compression.c.zst 0 10000000 | wc -c
ZSTD_seekable_decompress() error : Corrupted block detected
0
After:
$ ./seekable_decompression seekable_compression.c.zst 0 10000000 | wc -c
