* lz4.c: fixed the LZ4_decompress_safe_continue caseAlexey Tourbin2018-04-261-17/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous change broke decoding with a ring buffer. That's because I didn't realize that the "double dictionary mode" was possible, i.e. that the decoding routine can look both at the first part of the dictionary passed as prefix and the second part passed via dictStart+dictSize. So this change introduces the LZ4_decompress_safe_doubleDict helper, which handles this "double dictionary" situation. (This is a bit of a misnomer, there is only one dictionary, but I can't think of a better name, and perhaps the designation is not all too bad.) The helper is used only once, in LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, it should be inlined with LZ4_FORCE_O2_GCC_PPC64LE attached to LZ4_decompress_safe_continue. (Also, in the helper functions, I change the dictStart parameter type to "const void*", to avoid a cast when calling helpers. In the helpers, the upcast to "BYTE*" is still required, for compatibility with C++.) So this fixes the case of LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, and I'm surprised by the fact that the fuzzer is now happy and does not detect a similar problem with LZ4_decompress_fast_continue. So before fixing LZ4_decompress_fast_continue, the next logical step is to enhance the fuzzer.

For example, LZ4_decompress_fast_withPrefix64k is instantiated as follows: return LZ4_decompress_generic(source, dest, 0, originalSize, endOnOutputSize, full, 0, withPrefix64k, (BYTE*)dest - 64 KB, NULL, 64 KB); while the equivalent withPrefix64k call in LZ4_decompress_usingDict_generic passes 0 for the last argument instead of 64 KB. It turns out that there is no difference in this case: if you change 64 KB to 0 KB in LZ4_decompress_fast_withPrefix64k, you get the same binary code. Moreover, because it's been clarified that LZ4_decompress_fast doesn't check match offsets, it is now obvious that both of these fast/withPrefix64k instantiations are simply redundant. Exactly because LZ4_decompress_fast doesn't check offsets, it serves well with any prefixed dictionary. There's a difference, though, with LZ4_decompress_safe_withPrefix64k. It also passes 64 KB as the last argument, and if you change that to 0, as in LZ4_decompress_usingDict_generic, you get a completely different binary code. It seems that passing 0 enables offset checking: const int checkOffset = ((safeDecode) && (dictSize < (int)(64 KB))); However, the resulting code seems to run a bit faster. How come enabling extra checks can make the code run faster? Curiouser and curiouser! This needs extra study. Currently I take the view that the dictSize should be set to non-zero when nothing else will do, i.e. when passing the external dictionary via dictStart. Otherwise, lowPrefix betrays just enough information about the dictionary. * * * Anyway, with this change, I instantiate all the necessary cases as functions with distinctive names, which also take fewer arguments and are therefore less error-prone. I also make the functions non-inline. (The compiler won't inline the functions because they are used more than once. Hence I attach LZ4_FORCE_O2_GCC_PPC64LE to the instances while removing from the callers.) The number of instances is now is reduced from 18 (safe+fast+partial+4*continue+4*prefix+4*dict+2*prefix64+forceExtDict) down to 7 (safe+fast+partial+2*prefix+2*dict). The size of the code is not the only issue here. Separate helper function are much more amenable to profile-guided optimization: it is enough to profile only a few basic functions, while the other less-often used functions, such as LZ4_decompress_*_continue, will benefit automatically.
