This feature has demonstrated itself to be useful in web compression and we
want to encourage other folks to use it. But we currently make it difficult
to do so since it's locked away in the experimental API.
The API itself is really straightforward and I think it's fine to commit to
maintaining support / compatibility for this API even if in the future the
underlying implementation may continue to evolve.
Note that this commit changes its enum name and also its numeric value. Users
who respected the instructions of using the experimental API should be fine
with both of these changes since they should only have referred to it by the.
Conceivably someone could have done bad feature detection of this capability
by doing `#ifdef ZSTD_c_targetCBlockSize` which will now return false since
it's no longer a macro... but I think that's an acceptable hypothetical
breakage.
This doesn't affect most of the targets, but will help me sleep better at night knowing that future refactors won't break the legacy support.
Should have been included in https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/3943 but I noticed after that merged, so putting up a separate PR.
Fixes a bug in AsyncIO where we queue reads after opening a file so our queue will always be saturated (or as saturated as possible).
Previous code was looping up to `availableJobsCount` not realizing `availableJobsCount` was also decreasing in each iteration, so instead of queueing 10 jobs we'd queue 5 (and instead of 2 we'd queue 1).
This PR fixes the loop to queue as long as `availableJobsCount` is not 0.
only disable `--rm` at end of command line parsing,
so that `-c` only disables `--rm` if it's effectively selected,
and not if it's overriden by a later `-o FILE` command.
is correctly detected as corrupted by new version,
and is accepted (changed into offset==1) by older version.
updated documentation accordingly, with an hexadecimal representation.
in this new method, when an `offset==0` is detected,
it's converted into (size_t)(-1), instead of 1.
The logic is that (size_t)(-1) is effectively an extremely large positive number,
which will not pass the offset distance test at next stage (`execSequence()`).
Checked the source code, and offset is always checked (as it should),
using a formula which is not vulnerable to arithmetic overflow:
```
RETURN_ERROR_IF(sequence.offset > (size_t)(oLitEnd - virtualStart),
```
The benefit is that such a case (offset==0) is always detected as corrupted data
as opposed to relying on the checksum to detect the error.
LLU is a correct prefix according to C99 & C11 standards (but not C90).
However, older versions of Visual Studio do not work with it.
Replace by ULL, which doesn't have this issue.
