This pattern is flagged by less forgiving variants of ubsan
notably used during compilation of the Linux Kernel.
There are 2 other places in the code where this pattern is used.
This fixes just one of them.
* Remove all pointer-overflow suppressions from our UBSAN builds/tests.
* Add `ZSTD_ALLOW_POINTER_OVERFLOW_ATTR` macro to suppress
pointer-overflow at a per-function level. This is a superior approach
because it also applies to users who build zstd with UBSAN.
* Add `ZSTD_wrappedPtr{Diff,Add,Sub}()` that use these suppressions.
The end goal is to only tag these functions with
`ZSTD_ALLOW_POINTER_OVERFLOW`. But we can start by annoting functions
that rely on pointer overflow, and gradually transition to using
these.
* Add `ZSTD_maybeNullPtrAdd()` to simplify pointer addition when the
pointer may be `NULL`.
* Fix all the fuzzer issues that came up. I'm sure there will be a lot
more, but these are the ones that came up within a few minutes of
running the fuzzers, and while running GitHub CI.
They are Linux-like environments under Windows and have all the tools needed to support staged installation and testing.
Beware: this only affects the make build system.
The sequence section starts with a number, which tells how sequences are present in the section.
If this number if 0, the section automatically ends.
The number 0 can be represented using the 1 byte or the 2 bytes formats.
That's because the 2-bytes formats fully overlaps the 1 byte format.
However, when 0 is represented using the 2-bytes format,
the decoder was expecting the sequence section to continue,
and was looking for FSE tables, which is incorrect.
Fixed this behavior, in both the reference decoder and the educational behavior.
In practice, this behavior never happens,
because the encoder will always select the 1-byte format to represent 0,
since this is more efficient.
Completed the fix with a new golden sample for tests,
a clarification of the specification,
and a decoder errata paragraph.
and in `decodecorpus`:
the specific case `nbSeq=127` can be represented using the 1-byte format.
Note that both the 1-byte and the 2-bytes formats are valid to represent this case,
so there was no "error", produced data remains valid,
it's just that the 1-byte format is more efficient.

Reduces memory when blocks are guaranteed to be smaller than allowed by
the format. This is useful for streaming compression in conjunction with
ZSTD_c_maxBlockSize.
This PR saves 2 * (formatMaxBlockSize - paramMaxBlockSize) when streaming.
Once it is rebased on top of PR #3616 it will save
3 * (formatMaxBlockSize - paramMaxBlockSize).
The split literals buffer patch increased streaming decompression memory
by 64KB (shrunk lit buffer from 128KB to 64KB, and added 128KB). This
patch removes the added 128KB buffer, because it isn't necessary.
The buffer was there because the literals compression code didn't know
the true `blockSizeMax` of the frame, and always put split literals so
they ended 128KB - 32 from the beginning of the block. Instead, we can
pass down the true `blockSizeMax` and ensure that the split literals
end up at `blockSizeMax - 32` from the beginning of the block. We
already reserve a full `blockSizeMax` bytes in streaming mode, so we
won't be overwriting the extDict window.
When `ZSTD_c_maxBlockSize` is set, we weren't computing the
decompression margin correctly, leading to `dstSize_tooSmall` errors.
Fix that computation.
This is just a bug in the fuzzer, not a bug in the library itself.

Every 256 bytes the lazy match finders process without finding a match,
they will increase their step size by 1. So for bytes [0, 256) they search
every position, for bytes [256, 512) they search every other position,
and so on. However, they currently still insert every position into
their hash tables. This is different from fast & dfast, which only
insert the positions they search.
This PR changes that, so now after we've searched 2KB without finding
any matches, at which point we'll only be searching one in 9 positions,
we'll stop inserting every position, and only insert the positions we
search. The exact cutoff of 2KB isn't terribly important, I've just
selected a cutoff that is reasonably large, to minimize the impact on
"normal" data.
This PR only adds skipping to greedy, lazy, and lazy2, but does not
touch btlazy2.

The speed difference for clang at level 12 is real, but is probably
caused by some sort of alignment or codegen issues. clang is
significantly slower than gcc before this PR, but gets up to parity with
it.
I also measured the ratio difference for the HC match finder, and it
looks basically the same as the row-based match finder. The speedup on
random data looks similar. And performance is about neutral, without the
big difference at level 12 for either clang or gcc.
In Python 3.x, a single element of a bytes array is returned as
an integer number. Thus, NEWLINE is an int variable, and attempting
to add it to the line array will fail with a type mismatch error
that may be demonstrated as follows:
[roam@straylight ~]$ python3 -c 'b"hello" + b"\n"[0]'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't concat int to bytes

#3543 decreases the size of the tagTable by a factor of 2, which requires using the first tag position in each row for head position instead of a tag.
Although position 0 stopped being a valid match, it still persisted in mask calculation resulting in the matches loops possibly terminating before it should have. The fix skips position 0 to solve this problem.
Allocate half the memory for tag space, which means that we get one less slot for an actual tag (needs to be used for next position index).
The results is a slight loss in compression ratio (up to 0.2%) and some regressions/improvements to speed depending on level and sample. In turn, we get to save 16% of the hash table's space (5 bytes per entry instead of 6 bytes per entry).
Current timeout is too small for some slower machines, e.g. most modern riscv64 boards,
where tests fail with the following diagnostics:

Fixes#3396.
The block splitter confuses sequences with literal length == 65536 that use a
repeat offset code. It interprets this as literal length == 0 when deciding the
meaning of the repeat offset, and corrupts the repeat offset history. This is
benign, merely causing suboptimal compression performance, if the confused
history is flushed before the end of the block, e.g. if there are 3 consecutive
non-repeat code sequences after the mistake. It also is only triggered if the
block splitter decided to split the block.
All that to say: This is a rare bug, and requires quite a few conditions to
trigger. However, the good news is that if you have a way to validate that the
decompressed data is correct, e.g. you've enabled zstd's checksum or have a
checksum elsewhere, the original data is very likely recoverable. So if you were
affected by this bug please reach out.
The fix is to remind the block splitter that the literal length is actually 64K.
The test case is a bit tricky to set up, but I've managed to reproduce the issue.
Thanks to @danlark1 for alerting us to the issue and providing us a reproducer!
* Fixes zstd-dll build (https://github.com/facebook/zstd/issues/3492):
- Adds pool.o and threading.o dependency to the zstd-dll target
- Moves custom allocation functions into header to avoid needing to add dependency on common.o
- Adds test target for zstd-dll
- Adds github workflow that buildis zstd-dll
This frame is invalid because the `Window_Size = 0`, and the
`Block_Maximum_Size = min(128 KB, Window_Size) = 0`. But the empty
compressed block has a `Block_Content` size of 2, which is invalid.
The fix is to switch to using a `Window_Descriptor` instead of the
`Single_Segment_Flag`. This sets the `Window_Size = 1024`.
