* Silently skip dictionaries less than 8 bytes, unless using `ZSTD_dct_fullDict`.
This changes the compressor, which silently skips dictionaries <= 8 bytes.
* Allow repcodes that are equal to the dictionary content size, since it is in bounds.
* Adds the fuzzer
* Adds an additional `InputType` for the fuzzer
I ran the fuzzer for about 10 minutes and it found 2 bugs:
* Catches the original bug without any help
* Catches an additional bug with 8-byte dictionaries
In the case that `op >= oend_w` it is possible that `diff < 8` because
the two buffers could be adjacent.
Credit to OSS-Fuzz, which found the bug. It isn't reproducible because
it depends on the memory layout.
* A copy-paste error made it so we weren't running the advanced/cdict
streaming tests with the old API.
* Clean up the old streaming tests to skip incompatible configs.
* Update `results.csv`.
The tests now catch the bug in #1787.
* Bump `WILDCOPY_OVERLENGTH` to 16 to fix the wildcopy overread.
* Optimize `ZSTD_wildcopy()` by removing unnecessary branches and
unrolling the loop.
* Extract `ZSTD_overlapCopy8()` into its own function.
* Add `ZSTD_safecopy()` for `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. It is
optimized for single long sequences, since that is the important
case that can end up in `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. Without this
optimization, decompressing a block with 1 long match goes
from 5.7 GB/s to 800 MB/s.
* Refactor `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Increase the literal copy shortcut to 16.
* Add a shortcut for offset >= 16.
* Simplify `ZSTD_execSequence()` by pushing more cases into
`ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Delete `ZSTD_execSequenceLong()` since it is exactly the
same as `ZSTD_execSequence()`.
clang-8 seeds +17.5% on silesia and +21.8% on enwik8.
gcc-9 sees +12% on silesia and +15.5% on enwik8.
TODO: More detailed measurements, and on more datasets.
Crdit to OSS-Fuzz for finding the wildcopy overread.
The COVER and FASTCOVER dictionary builders can deadlock when
dictionary construction errors, likely because there are too few
samples, or too few distinct dmers. The deadlock only occurs when
there are errors.
Fixes#1746.
Extends the fix in PR#1722 to v0.2 and v0.4. These aren't built into
zstd by default, and v0.5 onward are not affected.
I only add the `srcSize > BLOCKSIZE` check to v0.4 because the comments
say that it must hold, but the equivalent comment isn't present in v0.2.

* Remove the `make libFuzzer` target since it is broken and obsoleted
by `CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./fuzz.py build all --enable-fuzzer`. The
new `-fsanitize=fuzzer` is much better because it works with MSAN
by default.
* Improve the `./fuzz.py gen` command by making the input type explicit
when creating a new target.
* Update the `README` for `--enable-fuzzer`.
Fixes#1727.
The match length and literal length extra bytes could either
by 2 bytes or 3 bytes in version 0.5. All earlier verions were
always 3 bytes, and later version didn't have dumps.
The bug, introduced by commit 0fd322f812,
was triggered when the last dump was a 2-byte dump, because we didn't
separate that case from a 3-byte dump, and thought we were over-reading.
I've tested this fix with every zstd version < 1.0.0 on the buggy file,
and we are now always successfully decompressing with the right
checksum.
Fixes#1693.
* [ldm] Fix bug in overflow correction with large job size
* [zstdmt] Respect ZSTDMT_JOBSIZE_MAX (1G in 64-bit mode)
* [test] Add test that exposes the bug
Sadly the test fails on our CI because it uses too much memory, so
I had to comment it out.
When we wrote one byte beyond the end of the buffer for RLE
blocks back in 1.3.7, we would then have `op > oend`. That is
a problem when we use `oend - op` for the size of the destination
buffer, and allows further writes beyond the end of the buffer for
the rest of the function. Lets assert that it doesn't happen.
* Extract the overflow correction into a helper function.
* Load the dictionary `ZSTD_CHUNKSIZE_MAX = 512 MB` bytes at a time
and overflow correct between each chunk.
Data corruption could happen when all these conditions are true:
* You are using multithreading mode
* Your overlap size is >= 512 MB (implies window size >= 512 MB)
* You are using a strategy >= ZSTD_btlazy
* You are compressing more than 4 GB
The problem is that when loading a large dictionary we don't do
overflow correction. We can only load 512 MB at a time, and may
need to do overflow correction before each chunk.
We would only skip at most 192 bytes at a time before this diff.
This was added to optimize long matches and skip the middle of the
match. However, it doesn't handle the case of repetitive data.
This patch keeps the optimization, but also handles repetitive data
by taking the max of the two return values.

At level 19 with multithreading the compressed size of `silesia.tar` regresses 300 bytes, and `enwik8` regresses 100 bytes.
In single threaded mode `enwik8` is also within 100 bytes, and I didn't test `silesia.tar`.
Fixes Issue #1634.
* Version <= 0.5 could read beyond the end of `dumps`, which points into
the input buffer.
* Check the validity of `dumps` before using it, if it is out of bounds
return garbage values. There is no return code for this function.
* Introduce `MEM_readLE24()` for simplicity, since I don't want to trust
that there is an extra byte after `dumps`.
ZSTDMT was broken when compiled without ZSTD_MULTITHREAD defined,
because `ZSTD_CCtx_setParameter(cctx, ZSTD_c_nbWorkers, nbWorkerss)`
failed. It was detected by the MSVC test which runs the fuzzer with
multithreading disabled.
This is a very niche use case of a deprecated API, because the API is
inefficient and synchronous, since `threading.h` will be synchronous.
Users almost certainly don't want this, and anyone who tested their code
should realize that it is broken. Therefore, I think it is safe to
require `ZSTD_MULTITHREAD` to be defined to use ZSTDMT.
Bugs:
* `ZSTD_DCtx_refPrefix()` didn't clear the dictionary after the first
use. Fix and add a test case.
* `ZSTD_DCtx_reset()` always cleared the dictionary. Fix and add a test
case.
* After calling `ZSTD_resetDStream()` you could no longer load a
dictionary, since the stage was set to `zdss_loadHeader`. Fix and add
a test case.
Cleanup:
* Make `ZSTD_initDStream*()` and `ZSTD_resetDStream()` wrap the new
advanced API, and add test cases.
* Document the equivalent of these functions in the advanced API and
document the unstable functions as deprecated.
* `ZSTD_decompressDCtx()` did not use the dictionary loaded by
`ZSTD_DCtx_loadDictionary()`.
* Add a unit test.
* A stacked diff uses `ZSTD_decompressDCtx()` in the
`dictionary_round_trip` and `dictionary_decompress` fuzzers.
Zstd compression sometimes does different stuff when it has at least
`ZSTD_compressBound()` output bytes, or not. Half of the time fuzz with
`ZSTD_compressBound() - 1` output bytes. Ensure that we have at least
one byte of overhead by disabling either the dictionary ID or checksum.
`ZSTD_compress2()` wouldn't wait for multithreaded compression to
finish. We didn't find this because ZSTDMT will block when it can
compress all in one go, but it can't do that if it doesn't have enough
output space, or if `ZSTD_c_rsyncable` is enabled.
Since we will already sometimes block when using `ZSTD_e_end`, I've
changed `ZSTD_e_end` and `ZSTD_e_flush` to guarantee maximum forward
progress. This simplifies the API, and helps users avoid the easy bug
that was made in `ZSTD_compress2()`
* Found by the libfuzzer fuzzers.
* Added a test case that catches the problem.
* I will make the fuzzers sometimes allocate less than
`ZSTD_compressBound()` output space.
