Pull request overview
Adds a new mid-tier encoder setting, CompressionLevel::Better, intended to approximate C zstd level 7 by reusing the existing fast block pipeline while upgrading the match-finding strategy (lazy2) and window size.
Changes:
- Implement
CompressionLevel::Betterusing the Dfast backend with configurable lazy lookahead depth (lazy2) and an 8 MiB window. - Extend streaming and frame compressors to accept
Better, plus add roundtrip/cross-validation tests. - Update CLI, benchmarks, and docs to expose/measure the new level.

Inline comments:
In `@cli/src/main.rs`:
- Line 12: The import ordering in cli/src/main.rs (specifically the use
color_eyre::eyre::{eyre, ContextCompat, WrapErr}; line and related imports in
the main/test modules) does not match rustfmt expectations and is failing CI;
run cargo fmt --all to automatically reorder and format imports, or manually
reorder the use statements to match rustfmt output (ensuring grouped/sorted
paths and braces order) so the imports around the eyre::{eyre, ContextCompat,
WrapErr} line and the corresponding imports at lines 382-383 and 389 are
formatted consistently.
In `@README.md`:
- Line 47: The README contains conflicting fork-goals text: the checklist now
marks "Better" as implemented while the description still says "currently only
Fastest is implemented"; update the descriptive sentence that references
"Fastest" so it reflects that "Better" is implemented (e.g., change "currently
only Fastest is implemented" to indicate both Fastest and Better are implemented
or remove the exclusivity), and ensure the checklist items and any other
mentions of "Better" and "Fastest" are consistent.
In `@zstd/benches/support/mod.rs`:
- Line 1: The import line use rand::{rngs::SmallRng, RngCore, SeedableRng}; is
mis-ordered for rustfmt; run cargo fmt --all (or apply rustfmt ordering) to
reorder the items in the brace list to rustfmt's expected order so the CI fmt
check passes, e.g., update the use statement for rand (the rngs::SmallRng,
RngCore, SeedableRng import) to match cargo fmt's output.
In `@zstd/src/encoding/streaming_encoder.rs`:
- Around line 265-266: The allocate_pending_space() logic should treat
CompressionLevel::Better the same as Fastest/Default so matcher-backed reusable
pending buffers are reused instead of reallocating; update the match arm(s) in
allocate_pending_space() (and any related buffer-reuse conditionals) to include
CompressionLevel::Better alongside CompressionLevel::Fastest and
CompressionLevel::Default when deciding to reuse the matcher-backed pending
buffer, ensuring pending-buffer reuse occurs for Better and avoids extra
allocations on large streams.
In `@zstd/src/tests/roundtrip_integrity.rs`:
- Around line 76-96: The two level-specific helpers roundtrip_better and
roundtrip_better_streaming duplicate existing scaffolding; replace them with
generic functions roundtrip_at_level(data: &[u8], level: CompressionLevel) ->
Vec<u8> and roundtrip_streaming_at_level(data: &[u8], level: CompressionLevel)
-> Vec<u8> that perform the same compress->decode flow but accept a
CompressionLevel parameter, update any callers that used
roundtrip_better/roundtrip_better_streaming to call the new generic helpers, and
remove the old specific functions; reference existing helpers roundtrip_simple,
roundtrip_streaming, and roundtrip_default as the pattern to follow for naming
and behavior.
- Around line 384-446: Add a new test that constructs a repeated-pattern fixture
whose second match occurs between 4 MiB and 8 MiB (use repeat_offset_fixture to
place the repeating pattern at an offset > 4*1024*1024 and < 8*1024*1024),
compress it with compress_to_vec using CompressionLevel::Default and
CompressionLevel::Better, and assert that the Better output preserves the
long-distance match (e.g., compressed_better.len() < compressed_default.len() or
at least strictly <= and noticeably smaller) to ensure Better's larger window is
exercised; place this alongside the other better-level tests (or add a new
function better_level_crosses_default_history) so the suite fails if Better
falls back to a 4 MiB effective window.
- Line 13: The import group in zstd/src/tests/roundtrip_integrity.rs is out of
rustfmt order; reorder the items inside the use crate::encoding::{...} import so
they read CompressionLevel, FrameCompressor, compress_to_vec (i.e., change the
list to CompressionLevel, FrameCompressor, compress_to_vec) and run cargo fmt
--check to verify formatting passes.

@coderabbitai Re: outside-diff pick_lazy_match position seeding (match_generator.rs:1051-1087) — this code is in the Dfast backend which is only used by Default level. Better now uses the new HcMatchGenerator (hash chain backend) which inserts positions before lazy evaluation in its own start_matching loop. The Dfast lazy seeding order is a valid improvement for Default but out of scope for this PR. |

In `@zstd/src/encoding/match_generator.rs`:
- Around line 1685-1692: The match_gain function currently treats offset==0 as
valid and yields a positive gain; add a defensive check in match_gain to handle
the invalid offset==0 case (offsets are 1-indexed in zstd) — for example, add a
debug assertion referencing match_gain that offset != 0 and return a
sentinel/very-low value when offset == 0 so callers won’t treat it as a useful
match; update the logic inside match_gain (and mention the symbol match_gain) to
assert or short-circuit on offset==0 and produce a clearly invalid gain instead
of computing with offset_bits == 0.
- Around line 1547-1570: chain_candidates currently allocates a new Vec<usize>
on each call which causes allocation churn; change it to avoid heap allocation
by either (A) changing its signature to accept a reusable &mut Vec<usize>
scratch buffer (clear and push candidate_abs into that buffer) and return a
slice or unit so callers reuse the buffer, or (B) return a lazy iterator that
walks hash_table and chain_table (using HC_SEARCH_DEPTH, HC_EMPTY,
history_abs_start, live_history(), hash_position(), chain_table and hash_table)
without collecting into a Vec; update all callers to use the new API so
allocations are eliminated.
- Around line 277-280: The assignment to dfast.lazy_depth for
CompressionLevel::Better is unreachable because level_config() maps Better to
MatcherBackend::HashChain, so update the Dfast branch in match_generator.rs by
either removing the CompressionLevel::Better arm from the match or replacing it
with a brief defensive comment; specifically, edit the match on level where
dfast.lazy_depth is set (referencing dfast.lazy_depth, CompressionLevel::Better,
level_config(), and MatcherBackend::HashChain) so the code no longer contains a
misleading unreachable case or explicitly notes it’s defensive.

- Around line 1531-1535: The code casts abs_pos to u32 (pos_u32) and stores it
in hash_table/chain_table, which silently wraps when abs_pos > u32::MAX and
corrupts chain traversal; update MatchGenerator (the logic around pos_u32,
abs_pos, hash_table, chain_table, HC_CHAIN_LOG, chain_idx) to either (A) store a
rebased position relative to the current sliding window (e.g., compute
relative_pos = (abs_pos - window_base) and convert that to u32) so values never
exceed u32, or (B) perform a checked conversion and return an error for
oversized streams (rejecting Better streams) instead of wrapping; implement the
chosen approach consistently where pos_u32 is produced and read to avoid
mismatch in chain traversal.
In `@zstd/src/encoding/mod.rs`:
- Around line 64-66: The doc comment for CompressionLevel::Better is out of date
— it's no longer using the dfast matcher; update the public docs to state that
CompressionLevel::Better uses the hash-chain matcher (HcMatchGenerator) instead
of DfastMatchGenerator, and adjust the memory/ratio tradeoff description to
reflect higher memory use and better compression ratio compared to
CompressionLevel::Default. Locate the comment near CompressionLevel::Better in
mod.rs (referencing CompressionLevel::Better, DfastMatchGenerator,
HcMatchGenerator) and replace the wording to mention the hash-chain backend, the
HcMatchGenerator symbol, and the expected memory vs ratio characteristics.

better.len() < default.len() (using the existing better and default variables
which compare CompressionLevel::Better and CompressionLevel::Default) before or

- Around line 1157-1165: Collapse the nested `if let` by combining the match
check and the length guard into a single conditional: replace the current
two-step `let next2 = self.best_match(...)` followed by `if let Some(next2) =
next2 { if next2.match_len > best.match_len + 1 { return None; } }` with a
single `if let Some(next2) = self.best_match(abs_pos + 2, lit_len + 2) &&
next2.match_len > best.match_len + 1 { return None; }` inside the existing `if
self.lazy_depth >= 2 && abs_pos + 2 + DFAST_MIN_MATCH_LEN <=
self.history_abs_end()` block so the `next2` binding and the length check are
collapsed and the clippy `collapsible_if` warning is resolved.

- Around line 1470-1490: The lazy look-ahead is calling find_best_match(abs_pos
+ 1/2, ...) before the skipped bytes have been inserted into the hash-chain
tables, so the matcher sees stale state; fix by seeding those skipped positions
into the matcher before any look-ahead comparisons. Concretely, in the lazy path
(where pick_lazy_match is used from match_generator.rs) ensure you call
insert_positions or insert_position for the bytes between abs_pos and the
look-ahead start (i.e., the positions that will be skipped) before invoking
find_best_match for abs_pos+1 and abs_pos+2 (and likewise in the similar block
around the 1722–1740 region). This ensures find_best_match, pick_lazy_match and
subsequent Better comparisons see up-to-date HC state and capture self-overlap /
offset-1 winners.
- Around line 1438-1442: The backfill logic in backfill_boundary_positions
currently bails out when current_abs_start.saturating_sub(3) is below
history_abs_start, dropping anchors; change it to clamp the backfill start to
the live-history start instead of early-returning: compute a clamped start =
max(self.history_abs_start, current_abs_start.saturating_sub(3)) and call
insert_positions(clamped_start, current_abs_start) (only if clamped_start <
current_abs_start), using the existing backfill_boundary_positions and
insert_positions symbols and the history_abs_start/current_abs_start values to
locate the fix.

In `@zstd/src/encoding/match_generator.rs`:
- Around line 1471-1504: Before emitting the trailing literals, seed the
boundary anchor by calling the same insert logic for the start at current_len -
4 so the final 4-byte tail is indexed; specifically, in the block that handles
remaining literals (after the while loop that uses insert_position and
insert_positions), compute the boundary_start = current_abs_start +
(current_len.saturating_sub(4)) and call insert_position (or insert_positions if
you need to insert up to boundary_start + 4) for that start so
backfill_boundary_positions and cross-slice matching (used by start_matching)
can find matches whose source begins exactly 4 bytes before the slice boundary;
update both places noted (the trailing-literals return and the similar section
around lines 1540-1545) to perform this seeding.
- Around line 2210-2214: Add a cross-slice regression for the HashChain path
immediately after the existing routing check: after calling
driver.reset(CompressionLevel::Better) and asserting driver.active_backend ==
MatcherBackend::HashChain and driver.hc_matcher().lazy_depth == 2, add a test
analogous to dfast_inserts_tail_positions_for_next_block_matching() but targeted
at the HashChain matcher (e.g.,
hashchain_inserts_tail_positions_for_next_block_matching()). The new test should
seed two adjacent slices with overlapping content, run the HashChain match
generation across the boundary using driver.hc_matcher()/driver APIs, and assert
that tail positions from the previous slice are preserved/used for matching in
the next slice to catch boundary-anchor losses. Ensure it lives next to the
routing check so it runs for CompressionLevel::Better.

- Around line 336-339: The match arm that sets min_primed_tail currently treats
MatcherBackend::HashChain like Dfast (value 4), which drops 1–3 byte dictionary
tails even though HcMatchGenerator::backfill_boundary_positions() can make those
tails hashable; update the MatcherBackend::HashChain branch in
match_generator.rs so min_primed_tail uses MIN_MATCH_LEN (like
MatcherBackend::Simple) instead of 4, ensuring CompressionLevel::Better can
detect the first cross-boundary match after priming.
- Around line 1554-1559: The early return when abs_pos >= u32::MAX disables all
further HC insertions for long streams; instead preserve the original wrap-safe
behavior used by HcMatchGenerator::insert_position by casting abs_pos to u32 and
continuing to insert (store (abs_pos as u32).wrapping_add(1) or equivalent) so
HC_EMPTY (0) still never collides, and rely on existing filtering against
history_abs_start to discard wrapped/stale candidates. Replace the return with a
safe cast+insert path that stores (abs_pos+1) as a u32 and keeps the rest of the
insertion logic unchanged (respecting HC_EMPTY and history_abs_start).

zstd/src/encoding/levels/fastest.rs:29
compress_block_encodedmutates compression state (offset history, last Huffman table, FSE table history) while building a compressed representation, but it can later fall back to emitting a Raw block when the compressed payload exceedsMAX_BLOCK_SIZE. If that fallback happens, the frame stream will encode a Raw block while the encoder state has advanced as-if a Compressed block was emitted, which can desync repcode history and/or cause later blocks to incorrectly select RepeatLast tables (decoder won’t have those tables), risking decode failures/corruption. Consider snapshotting/restoring the relevant fields (e.g.,state.offset_hist,state.last_huff_table,state.fse_tables) when falling back to Raw, or refactor so state updates only occur after committing to a Compressed block.
