We could allocate up to 2^28 bytes of memory when using 2 threads with
window log = 24. Now, we limit it to 2^26 bytes of memory when not running
big tests.
I chose max window log = 22 since that is the maximum source size when
big tests are disabled. Hopefully this will be enough to reduce or
eliminate the test failures.
The correct parameters are used once, but once `ZSTD_resetCStream()` is
called the default parameters (level 3) are used. Fix this by setting
`requestedParams` in the `ZSTD_initCStream*()` functions.
The added tests both fail before this patch and pass after.
[zstdmt] Fix jobsize bugs
* `ZSTDMT_serialState_reset()` should use `targetSectionSize`, not `jobSize` when sizing the seqstore.
Add an assert that checks that we sized the seqstore using the right job size.
* `ZSTDMT_compressionJob()` should check if `rawSeqStore.seq == NULL`.
* `ZSTDMT_initCStream_internal()` should not adjust `mtctx->params.jobSize` (clamping to MIN/MAX is okay).
streaming decoders, such as ZSTD_decompressStream() or ZSTD_decompress_generic(),
may end up making no forward progress,
(aka no byte read from input __and__ no byte written to output),
due to unusual parameters conditions,
such as providing an output buffer already full.
In such case, the caller may be caught in an infinite loop,
calling the streaming decompression function again and again,
without making any progress.
This version detects such situation, and generates an error instead :
ZSTD_error_dstSize_tooSmall when output buffer is full,
ZSTD_error_srcSize_wrong when input buffer is empty.
The detection tolerates a number of attempts before triggering an error,
controlled by ZSTD_NO_FORWARD_PROGRESS_MAX macro constant,
which is set to 16 by default, and can be re-defined at compilation time.
This behavior tolerates potentially existing implementations
where such cases happen sporadically, like once or twice,
which is not dangerous (only infinite loops are),
without generating an error, hence without breaking these implementations.
from zstreamtest.
This test is now integrated within --newapi,
which dynamically switches between the 2 modes randomly.
The main outcome is reduced testing time.
recently introduce into the new dictionary mode.
The bug could be reproduced with this command :
./zstreamtest -v --opaqueapi --no-big-tests -s4092 -t639
error was in function ZSTD_count_2segments() :
the beginning of the 2nd segment corresponds to prefixStart
and not the beginning of the current block (istart == src).
This would result in comparing the wrong byte.
The new advanced API basically set `requestedParams = appliedParams` when
using a dictionary. This halted all parameter adjustment, which can hurt
compression ratio if, for example, the window log is small for the first
call, but the rest of the files are large.
This patch fixes the bug, and checks that the `requestedParams` don't change
in the new advanced API when using a dictionary, and generally in the fuzzer.
This makes it easier to explain that nbWorkers=0 --> single-threaded mode,
while nbWorkers=1 --> asynchronous mode (one mode thread on top of the "main" caller thread).
No need for an additional asynchronous mode flag.
nbWorkers>=2 works the same as nbThreads>=2 previously.
When ZSTD_e_end directive is provided,
the question is not only "are internal buffers completely flushed",
it is also "is current frame completed".
In some rare cases,
it was possible for internal buffers to be completely flushed,
triggering a @return == 0,
but frame was not completed as it needed a last null-size block to mark the end,
resulting in an unfinished frame.
it still fallbacks to single-thread blocking invocation
when input is small (<1job)
or when invoking ZSTDMT_compress(), which is blocking.
Also : fixed a bug in new block-granular compression routine.
params1 was swapped with params2.
This used to be a non-issue when testing for strict equality,
but now that some tests look for "sufficient size" `<=`, order matters.
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
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.
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
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.
* 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.
