LZ4LIB_API int LZ4_compress_default ( const char *  src,
char *  dst,
int  srcSize,
int  dstCapacity 
)

LZ4_compress_default() : Compresses 'srcSize' bytes from buffer 'src' into already allocated 'dst' buffer of size 'dstCapacity'. Compression is guaranteed to succeed if 'dstCapacity' >= LZ4_compressBound(srcSize). It also runs faster, so it's a recommended setting. If the function cannot compress 'src' into a more limited 'dst' budget, compression stops *immediately*, and the function result is zero. Note : as a consequence, 'dst' content is not valid. Note 2 : This function is protected against buffer overflow scenarios (never writes outside 'dst' buffer, nor read outside 'source' buffer). srcSize : max supported value is LZ4_MAX_INPUT_SIZE. dstCapacity : size of buffer 'dst' (which must be already allocated) return : the number of bytes written into buffer 'dst' (necessarily <= dstCapacity) or 0 if compression fails

LZ4_decompress_safe() : compressedSize : is the exact complete size of the compressed block. dstCapacity : is the size of destination buffer, which must be already allocated. return : the number of bytes decompressed into destination buffer (necessarily <= dstCapacity) If destination buffer is not large enough, decoding will stop and output an error code (negative value). If the source stream is detected malformed, the function will stop decoding and return a negative result. This function is protected against malicious data packets.

LZ4_compressBound() : Provides the maximum size that LZ4 compression may output in a "worst case" scenario (input data not compressible) This function is primarily useful for memory allocation purposes (destination buffer size). Macro LZ4_COMPRESSBOUND() is also provided for compilation-time evaluation (stack memory allocation for example). Note that LZ4_compress_default() compresses faster when dstCapacity is >= LZ4_compressBound(srcSize) inputSize : max supported value is LZ4_MAX_INPUT_SIZE return : maximum output size in a "worst case" scenario or 0, if input size is incorrect (too large or negative)

LZ4LIB_API int LZ4_compress_fast ( const char *  src,

)

LZ4_compress_fast() : Same as LZ4_compress_default(), but allows selection of "acceleration" factor. The larger the acceleration value, the faster the algorithm, but also the lesser the compression. It's a trade-off. It can be fine tuned, with each successive value providing roughly +~3% to speed. An acceleration value of "1" is the same as regular LZ4_compress_default() Values <= 0 will be replaced by ACCELERATION_DEFAULT (currently == 1, see lz4.c).

LZ4_compress_destSize() : Reverse the logic : compresses as much data as possible from 'src' buffer into already allocated buffer 'dst', of size >= 'targetDestSize'. This function either compresses the entire 'src' content into 'dst' if it's large enough, or fill 'dst' buffer completely with as much data as possible from 'src'. note: acceleration parameter is fixed to "default".

*srcSizePtr : will be modified to indicate how many bytes where read from 'src' to fill 'dst'. New value is necessarily <= input value.

LZ4LIB_API int LZ4_decompress_fast ( const char *  src,
char *  dst,
int  originalSize 
)

LZ4_decompress_fast() : **unsafe!** This function used to be a bit faster than LZ4_decompress_safe(), though situation has changed in recent versions, and now `LZ4_decompress_safe()` can be as fast and sometimes faster than `LZ4_decompress_fast()`. Moreover, LZ4_decompress_fast() is not protected vs malformed input, as it doesn't perform full validation of compressed data. As a consequence, this function is no longer recommended, and may be deprecated in future versions. It's only remaining specificity is that it can decompress data without knowing its compressed size.

originalSize : is the uncompressed size to regenerate. `dst` must be already allocated, its size must be >= 'originalSize' bytes.

Returns:
: number of bytes read from source buffer (== compressed size). If the source stream is detected malformed, the function stops decoding and returns a negative result. note : This function requires uncompressed originalSize to be known in advance. The function never writes past the output buffer. However, since it doesn't know its 'src' size, it may read past the intended input. Also, because match offsets are not validated during decoding, reads from 'src' may underflow. Use this function in trusted environment **only**.

LZ4LIB_API int LZ4_decompress_safe_partial ( const char *  src,
char *  dst,
int  srcSize,
int  targetOutputSize,
int  dstCapacity 
)

LZ4_decompress_safe_partial() : Decompress an LZ4 compressed block, of size 'srcSize' at position 'src', into destination buffer 'dst' of size 'dstCapacity'. Up to 'targetOutputSize' bytes will be decoded. The function stops decoding on reaching this objective, which can boost performance when only the beginning of a block is required.

Returns:
: the number of bytes decoded in `dst` (necessarily <= dstCapacity) If source stream is detected malformed, function returns a negative result.
Note :
Returns:
can be < targetOutputSize, if compressed block contains less data.
Note 2 : this function features 2 parameters, targetOutputSize and dstCapacity, and expects targetOutputSize <= dstCapacity. It effectively stops decoding on reaching targetOutputSize, so dstCapacity is kind of redundant. This is because in a previous version of this function, decoding operation would not "break" a sequence in the middle. As a consequence, there was no guarantee that decoding would stop at exactly targetOutputSize, it could write more bytes, though only up to dstCapacity. Some "margin" used to be required for this operation to work properly. This is no longer necessary. The function nonetheless keeps its signature, in an effort to not break API.

)

LZ4_compress_fast_continue() : Compress 'src' content using data from previously compressed blocks, for better compression ratio. 'dst' buffer must be already allocated. If dstCapacity >= LZ4_compressBound(srcSize), compression is guaranteed to succeed, and runs faster.

Returns:
: size of compressed block or 0 if there is an error (typically, cannot fit into 'dst').
Note 1 : Each invocation to LZ4_compress_fast_continue() generates a new block. Each block has precise boundaries. It's not possible to append blocks together and expect a single invocation of LZ4_decompress_*() to decompress them together. Each block must be decompressed separately, calling LZ4_decompress_*() with associated metadata.

Note 2 : The previous 64KB of source data is __assumed__ to remain present, unmodified, at same address in memory!

Note 3 : When input is structured as a double-buffer, each buffer can have any size, including < 64 KB. Make sure that buffers are separated, by at least one byte. This construction ensures that each block only depends on previous block.

Note 4 : If input buffer is a ring-buffer, it can have any size, including < 64 KB.

Note 5 : After an error, the stream status is invalid, it can only be reset or freed.

This is schematically equivalent to a memcpy() followed by LZ4_loadDict(), but is much faster, because LZ4_saveDict() doesn't need to rebuild tables.

Returns:
: saved dictionary size in bytes (necessarily <= maxDictSize), or 0 if error.
LZ4_saveDict() : If previously compressed data block is not guaranteed to remain available at its memory location, save it into a safer place (char* safeBuffer). Note : you don't need to call LZ4_loadDict() afterwards, dictionary is immediately usable, you can therefore call LZ4_compress_fast_continue().

LZ4LIB_API int LZ4_decompress_safe_continue ( LZ4_streamDecode_t LZ4_streamDecode,
const char *  src,
char *  dst,
int  srcSize,
int  dstCapacity 
)

LZ4_decompress_*_continue() : These decoding functions allow decompression of consecutive blocks in "streaming" mode. A block is an unsplittable entity, it must be presented entirely to a decompression function. Decompression functions only accepts one block at a time. The last 64KB of previously decoded data *must* remain available and unmodified at the memory position where they were decoded. If less than 64KB of data has been decoded, all the data must be present.

Special : if decompression side sets a ring buffer, it must respect one of the following conditions :

  • Decompression buffer size is _at least_ LZ4_decoderRingBufferSize(maxBlockSize). maxBlockSize is the maximum size of any single block. It can have any value > 16 bytes. In which case, encoding and decoding buffers do not need to be synchronized. Actually, data can be produced by any source compliant with LZ4 format specification, and respecting maxBlockSize.
  • Synchronized mode : Decompression buffer size is _exactly_ the same as compression buffer size, and follows exactly same update rule (block boundaries at same positions), and decoding function is provided with exact decompressed size of each block (exception for last block of the stream), _then_ decoding & encoding ring buffer can have any size, including small ones ( < 64 KB).
  • Decompression buffer is larger than encoding buffer, by a minimum of maxBlockSize more bytes. In which case, encoding and decoding buffers do not need to be synchronized, and encoding ring buffer can have any size, including small ones ( < 64 KB).

Whenever these conditions are not possible, save the last 64KB of decoded data into a safe buffer where it can't be modified during decompression, then indicate where this data is saved using LZ4_setStreamDecode(), before decompressing next block.

LZ4LIB_API void LZ4_resetStream_fast ( LZ4_stream_t streamPtr  ) 

LZ4_resetStream_fast() : Use this, like LZ4_resetStream(), to prepare a context for a new chain of calls to a streaming API (e.g., LZ4_compress_fast_continue()).

Note: Using this in advance of a non- streaming-compression function is redundant, and potentially bad for performance, since they all perform their own custom reset internally.

Differences from LZ4_resetStream(): When an LZ4_stream_t is known to be in a internally coherent state, it can often be prepared for a new compression with almost no work, only sometimes falling back to the full, expensive reset that is always required when the stream is in an indeterminate state (i.e., the reset performed by LZ4_resetStream()).

LZ4_streams are guaranteed to be in a valid state when:

  • returned from LZ4_createStream()
  • reset by LZ4_resetStream()
  • memset(stream, 0, sizeof(LZ4_stream_t)), though this is discouraged
  • the stream was in a valid state and was reset by LZ4_resetStream_fast()
  • the stream was in a valid state and was then used in any compression call that returned success
  • the stream was in an indeterminate state and was used in a compression call that fully reset the state (e.g., LZ4_compress_fast_extState()) and that returned success

When a stream isn't known to be in a valid state, it is not safe to pass to any fastReset or streaming function. It must first be cleansed by the full LZ4_resetStream().

LZ4_compress_fast_extState_fastReset() : A variant of LZ4_compress_fast_extState().

Using this variant avoids an expensive initialization step. It is only safe to call if the state buffer is known to be correctly initialized already (see above comment on LZ4_resetStream_fast() for a definition of "correctly initialized"). From a high level, the difference is that this function initializes the provided state with a call to something like LZ4_resetStream_fast() while LZ4_compress_fast_extState() starts with a call to LZ4_resetStream().

Using this variant avoids an expensive initialization step. It is only safe to call if the state buffer is known to be correctly initialized already (see comment in lz4.h on LZ4_resetStream_fast() for a definition of "correctly initialized").

Here is the call graph for this function:

LZ4LIB_API void LZ4_attach_dictionary ( LZ4_stream_t working_stream,
const LZ4_stream_t dictionary_stream 
)

LZ4_attach_dictionary() : This is an experimental API that allows for the efficient use of a static dictionary many times.

Rather than re-loading the dictionary buffer into a working context before each compression, or copying a pre-loaded dictionary's LZ4_stream_t into a working LZ4_stream_t, this function introduces a no-copy setup mechanism, in which the working stream references the dictionary stream in-place.

Several assumptions are made about the state of the dictionary stream. Currently, only streams which have been prepared by LZ4_loadDict() should be expected to work.

Alternatively, the provided dictionary stream pointer may be NULL, in which case any existing dictionary stream is unset.

If a dictionary is provided, it replaces any pre-existing stream history. The dictionary contents are the only history that can be referenced and logically immediately precede the data compressed in the first subsequent compression call.

The dictionary will only remain attached to the working stream through the first compression call, at the end of which it is cleared. The dictionary stream (and source buffer) must remain in-place / accessible / unchanged through the completion of the first compression call on the stream.
