2022-04-08lz4: fix LZ4_decompress_safe_partial read out of boundGuo Xuenan
When partialDecoding, it is EOF if we've either filled the output buffer or can't proceed with reading an offset for following match. In some extreme corner cases when compressed data is suitably corrupted, UAF will occur. As reported by KASAN [1], LZ4_decompress_safe_partial may lead to read out of bound problem during decoding. lz4 upstream has fixed it [2] and this issue has been disscussed here [3] before. current decompression routine was ported from lz4 v1.8.3, bumping lib/lz4 to v1.9.+ is certainly a huge work to be done later, so, we'd better fix it first.

2020-12-15lib/lz4: explicitly support in-place decompressionGao Xiang
LZ4 final literal copy could be overlapped when doing in-place decompression, so it's unsafe to just use memcpy() on an optimized memcpy approach but memmove() instead. Upstream LZ4 has updated this years ago [1] (and the impact is non-sensible [2] plus only a few bytes remain), this commit just synchronizes LZ4 upstream code to the kernel side as well. It can be observed as EROFS in-place decompression failure on specific files when X86_FEATURE_ERMS is unsupported, memcpy() optimization of commit 59daa706fbec ("x86, mem: Optimize memcpy by avoiding memory false dependece") will be enabled then. Currently most modern x86-CPUs support ERMS, these CPUs just use "rep movsb" approach so no problem at all. However, it can still be verified with forcely disabling ERMS feature... arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S: ALTERNATIVE_2 "jmp memcpy_orig", "", X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD, \ - "jmp memcpy_erms", X86_FEATURE_ERMS + "jmp memcpy_orig", X86_FEATURE_ERMS We didn't observe any strange on arm64/arm/x86 platform before since most memcpy() would behave in an increasing address order ("copy upwards" [3]) and it's the correct order of in-place decompression but it really needs an update to memmove() for sure considering it's an undefined behavior according to the standard and some unique optimization already exists in the kernel.

2020-08-14lz4: fix kernel decompression speedNick Terrell
This patch replaces all memcpy() calls with LZ4_memcpy() which calls __builtin_memcpy() so the compiler can inline it. LZ4 relies heavily on memcpy() with a constant size being inlined. In x86 and i386 pre-boot environments memcpy() cannot be inlined because memcpy() doesn't get defined as __builtin_memcpy(). An equivalent patch has been applied upstream so that the next import won't lose this change [1]. I've measured the kernel decompression speed using QEMU before and after this patch for the x86_64 and i386 architectures. The speed-up is about 10x as shown below. Code Arch Kernel Size Time Speed v5.8 x86_64 11504832 B 148 ms 79 MB/s patch x86_64 11503872 B 13 ms 885 MB/s v5.8 i386 9621216 B 91 ms 106 MB/s patch i386 9620224 B 10 ms 962 MB/s I also measured the time to decompress the initramfs on x86_64, i386, and arm. All three show the same decompression speed before and after, as expected.

2018-10-31lib/lz4: update LZ4 decompressor moduleGao Xiang
Update the LZ4 compression module based on LZ4 v1.8.3 in order for the erofs file system to use the newest LZ4_decompress_safe_partial() which can now decode exactly the nb of bytes requested [1] to take place of the open hacked code in the erofs file system itself. Currently, apart from the erofs file system, no other users use LZ4_decompress_safe_partial, so no worry about the interface. In addition, LZ4 v1.8.x boosts up decompression speed compared to the current code which is based on LZ4 v1.7.3, mainly due to shortcut optimization for the specific common LZ4-sequences [2]. lzbench testdata (tested in kirin710, 8 cores, 4 big cores at 2189Mhz, 2GB DDR RAM at 1622Mhz, with enwik8 testdata [3]): Compressor name Compress.

2017-02-24lib: update LZ4 compressor moduleSven Schmidt
Patch series "Update LZ4 compressor module", v7. This patchset updates the LZ4 compression module to a version based on LZ4 v1.7.3 allowing to use the fast compression algorithm aka LZ4 fast which provides an "acceleration" parameter as a tradeoff between high compression ratio and high compression speed. We want to use LZ4 fast in order to support compression in lustre and (mostly, based on that) investigate data reduction techniques in behalf of storage systems. Also, it will be useful for other users of LZ4 compression, as with LZ4 fast it is possible to enable applications to use fast and/or high compression depending on the usecase. For instance, ZRAM is offering a LZ4 backend and could benefit from an updated LZ4 in the kernel.

The kernel module is inspired by the previous work by Chanho Min. The updated LZ4 module will not break existing code since the patchset contains appropriate changes. API changes: New method LZ4_compress_fast which differs from the variant available in kernel by the new acceleration parameter, allowing to trade compression ratio for more compression speed and vice versa. LZ4_decompress_fast is the respective decompression method, featuring a very fast decoder (multiple GB/s per core), able to reach RAM speed in multi-core systems. The decompressor allows to decompress data compressed with LZ4 fast as well as the LZ4 HC (high compression) algorithm. Also the useful functions LZ4_decompress_safe_partial and LZ4_compress_destsize were added. The latter reverses the logic by trying to compress as much data as possible from source to dest while the former aims to decompress partial blocks of data. A bunch of streaming functions were also added which allow compressig/decompressing data in multiple steps (so called "streaming mode"). The methods lz4_compress and lz4_decompress_unknownoutputsize are now known as LZ4_compress_default respectivley LZ4_decompress_safe. The old methods will be removed since there's no callers left in the code.

2013-07-09lib: add lz4 compressor moduleChanho Min
This patchset is for supporting LZ4 compression and the crypto API using it. As shown below, the size of data is a little bit bigger but compressing speed is faster under the enabled unaligned memory access. We can use lz4 de/compression through crypto API as well. Also, It will be useful for another potential user of lz4 compression. lz4 Compression Benchmark: Compiler: ARM gcc 4.6.4 ARMv7, 1 GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.4 Uncompressed data Size: 101 MB Compressed Size compression Speed LZO 72.1MB 32.1MB/s, 33.0MB/s(UA) LZ4 75.1MB 30.4MB/s, 35.9MB/s(UA) LZ4HC 59.8MB 2.4MB/s, 2.5MB/s(UA) - UA: Unaligned memory Access support - Latest patch set for LZO applied This patch: Add support for LZ4 compression in the Linux Kernel. LZ4 Compression APIs for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet and were changed for kernel coding style. LZ4 homepage : http://fastcompression.blogspot.com/p/lz4.html LZ4 source repository : http://code.google.com/p/lz4/ svn revision : r90 Two APIs are added: lz4_compress() support basic lz4 compression whereas lz4hc_compress() support high compression or CPU performance get lower but compression ratio get higher. Also, we require the pre-allocated working memory with the defined size and destination buffer must be allocated with the size of lz4_compressbound.

2013-07-09decompressor: add LZ4 decompressor moduleKyungsik Lee
Add support for LZ4 decompression in the Linux Kernel. LZ4 Decompression APIs for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet. Benchmark Results(PATCH v3) Compiler: Linaro ARM gcc 4.6.2 1. ARMv7, 1.5GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.4 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed LZO 6.7MB 20.1MB/s, 25.2MB/s(UA) LZ4 7.3MB 29.1MB/s, 45.6MB/s(UA) 2. ARMv7, 1.7GHz based board Kernel: linux 3.7 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed LZO 6.0MB 34.1MB/s, 52.2MB/s(UA) LZ4 6.5MB 86.7MB/s - UA: Unaligned memory Access support - Latest patch set for LZO applied This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel. LZ4 is a very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely fast decoder [1]. But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones? This issue had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2]. Russell King said that we should have: - one decompressor which is the fastest - one decompressor for the highest compression ratio - one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip) If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly that: replace it. The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase in decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the fastest decompressor in the Kernel). Therefore the "fast but may not be small" compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].
