v1.10.1 fix : decoding into a ring buffer of `LZ4_decoderRingBufferSize()` could corrupt data (since v1.9.0) fix : `LZ4_compress_fast_continue()` produced wrong data when a block overwrote its whole previous block fix : `LZ4_compress_destSize_extState()` corrupted data with `acceleration <= 0`, and could read out of bounds (since v1.10.0) fix : negative sizes crashed `LZ4_decompress_safe_partial()` (since v1.9.3) and `LZ4_decompress_fast()` (since v1.9.4) fix : `LZ4_saveDict()` with a negative `dictSize` copied up to 64 KB into `safeBuffer`, by @arthuz-th fix : `LZ4_saveDictHC()` before any compression (new or reset stream) corrupted the next compressed block fix : `LZ4_decompress_safe_partial()` could leave previous `dst` content in decoded data with an invalid offset 0 (since v1.8.3) fix : heap overflow with an invalid `blockSizeID` in `LZ4F_compressBegin()` and `LZ4F_writeOpen()`, by @jaypatrickhoward fix : `LZ4F_compressBegin()` failing on allocation left an inconsistent frame in progress : it is now invalidated fix : `LZ4F_uncompressedUpdate()` mixed with `LZ4F_compressUpdate()` could exceed `LZ4F_compressBound()` fix : `LZ4F_compressBegin()` could crash after a previous call failed to allocate its state (custom allocator) fix : `LZ4F_uncompressedUpdate()` supports linked blocks (it could produce corrupted frames, without error) fix : single-thread `lz4` could truncate concatenated frames with block checksums (wrong decompression hints) fix : `--favor-decSpeed` lost after the first block with `-BD`, and ignored with a dictionary fix : poor compression by `LZ4_compress_fast_extState_fastReset()` after `LZ4_attach_dictionary()` on a new state fix : fast levels could compress some periodic data 30x worse, notably with a dictionary (other data : ~0.3-0.8% better, ~1-8% slower), reported by @martinus fix : level 12 very slow on short-period data with linked blocks, detected by OSS-Fuzz fix : levels 10+ with `(NULL, 0)` input, reported by @rinsuki fix : lz4frame functions check `NULL` arguments, by @louislafosse fix : `LZ4F_readOpen()` accepts files smaller than 19 bytes, by @axiqia fix : `LZ4F_read()` reports truncated files as an error (`ERROR_io_read`), instead of a clean end of file fix : `LZ4F_writeClose()` reports an earlier `LZ4F_write()` failure, instead of success fix : lz4frame levels `INT_MIN` and `INT_MIN+1` overflowed, and compressed at default speed instead of maximum acceleration, by @akashdeshmukh-git fix : lz4frame `skipChecksums` also skips block checksums of compressed blocks (decompression up to +23% faster) fix : C90 compilation of `lz4.c` with `LZ4_HEAPMODE=1` (since v1.10.0) perf : faster decompression on aarch64 and x86-64 (up to +19% on Neoverse-V2 and Zen 4), by @Nicoshev perf : `LZ4_FAST_DEC_LOOP` enabled on aarch64 with clang, including Android (up to +9% on Cortex-A5xx), by @Nicoshev and @arpadpanyik-arm perf : `LZ4_FAST_DEC_LOOP` enabled on riscv64 when unaligned accesses are fast (`-mno-strict-align`, or a `-mcpu` with fast unaligned accesses) perf : faster compression with reused contexts, for blocks >= 1 KB : linked frames (up to +69%), `LZ4_resetStream_fast()` (up to +94%) perf : faster compression of 2-4 KB blocks with `LZ4_attach_dictionary()` (+3% to +30% on Zen 4) perf : 4 KB blocks with

to +1% on Zen 4) perf : faster levels 11 (~+25%) and 12 (~+10%) perf : `--favor-decSpeed` : faster decompression (~+2-4% at level 12), with fewer sequences perf : `lz4` multithreaded compression relies on liblz4, reading files in place (memory-mapped, `--[no-]mmap`) : faster at fast levels api : lz4frame compression accepts any `dstCapacity` : `LZ4F_compressFrame()` and `LZ4F_compressUpdate()` fail only if the output doesn't fit api : `LZ4F_flush()` and `LZ4F_compressEnd()` fill `dstBuffer` or complete : below `LZ4F_compressBound(0)`, invoke them again while they return `dstCapacity` api : `LZ4F_ERROR_dstMaxSize_tooSmall` renamed `LZ4F_ERROR_dstCapacity_tooSmall` (former name still supported) api : lz4frame : after an error, and outside of a frame, compression operations fail until `LZ4F_compressBegin()` api : lz4frame output no longer depends on the compression context's history api : new static functions `LZ4F_cctx_size()` and `LZ4F_dctx_size()`, by

(experimental) : multithreaded lz4frame compression, same output for any `nbWorkers` >= 1 ; `LZ4F_compressBound()` counts jobs instead of blocks, independently of `nbWorkers` api : new static function `LZ4F_getMaxNbWorkers()` : tells if liblz4 supports multithreaded compression api : `LZ4F_compressOptions_t.stableSrc` : new value `LZ4F_srcStableUntilFlush`, letting worker threads read input in place api : reserved fields of `LZ4F_preferences_t` and `LZ4F_compressOptions_t` are now scalars : flatten positional initializers `{ 0, 0, 0 }` cli : decodes Firefox's mozlz4 files (`.jsonlz4`, `.mozlz4`), proposed by @UnitedMarsupials cli : decodes legacy frames ended by four zero bytes (Linux kernel end marker), requested by @benjarobin cli : compressed output no longer depends on multithreading support (`lz4` and `lz4-nomt` produce the same frames, also with `-BD`) cli : custom block sizes (`-B#`, # >= 32) are honored, and compressed single-threaded cli : `-T#` : nb of worker threads, beside the main thread, limited by file size and by a memory budget (`--memory=#`, `LZ4_MEMORY`), with a warning when it reduces `#` cli : `-T#` capped by liblz4 (1024 threads, 128 on 32-bit systems), replacing build macro `LZ4_NBWORKERS_MAX` ; `-V` tells if compression is multithreaded cli : output buffer no longer grows with the nb of threads : more threads within a memory budget (ex: 22 instead of 13 with `--memory=300M`) cli : a source file modified, renamed or replaced during its compression is detected, and kept with `--rm` ; error 54 when the output can't be verified cli : `lz4 -l` could hang on Windows with an empty input, as could decoding the resulting legacy stream cli : `--rm` keeps the source file after a decompression failure, by @Furan666 cli : `lz4 -t --rm` no longer removes the tested file, and `--rm` with `stdin` no longer fails nor removes a file named `stdin`, by @Nexory cli : `lz4 -t -m` no longer writes decoded content to stdout, reported by @tansy cli : `lz4 --list` rejects truncated frames, instead of reporting them as valid, by @jmestwa-coder cli : numeric arguments that overflow are rejected, instead of silently wrapping around, by @akashdeshmukh-git cli : `-b --fast=#` benchmarks a single level, instead of all levels up to -10000 when # > 10000 cli : legacy format (`-l`) : `--fast=#` selects the same acceleration as the frame format (`--fast=1` was the same as `-1`) cli : legacy format (`-l`) : honors `--rm`, and keeps the source file's owner, permissions and modification time cli : `-m` : a missing input file no longer distorts the final speed summary of compression cli : warning when `--content-size` is used with `stdin`, by @jlee303 cli : fix benchmark cpu time on Windows with very large files cli : `-b` crashed
