- Rename jpeg_simple_lossless() to jpeg_enable_lossless() and modify the
function so that it stores the lossless parameters directly in the Ss
and Al fields of jpeg_compress_struct rather than using a scan script.
- Move the cjpeg -lossless switch into "Switches for advanced users".
- Document the libjpeg API and run-time features that are unavailable in
lossless mode, and ensure that all parameters, functions, and switches
related to unavailable features are ignored or generate errors in
lossless mode.
- Defer any action that depends on whether lossless mode is enabled
until jpeg_start_compress()/jpeg_start_decompress() is called.
- Document the purpose of the point transform value.
- "Codec" stands for coder/decoder, so it is a bit awkward to say
"lossless compression codec" and "lossless decompression codec".
Use "lossless compressor" and "lossless decompressor" instead.
- Restore backward API/ABI compatibility with libjpeg v6b:
* Move the new 'lossless' field from the exposed jpeg_compress_struct
and jpeg_decompress_struct structures into the opaque
jpeg_comp_master and jpeg_decomp_master structures, and allocate the
master structures in the body of jpeg_create_compress() and
jpeg_create_decompress().
* Remove the new 'process' field from jpeg_compress_struct and
jpeg_decompress_struct and replace it with the old
'progressive_mode' field and the new 'lossless' field.
* Remove the new 'data_unit' field from jpeg_compress_struct and
jpeg_decompress_struct and replace it with a locally-computed
data unit variable.
* Restore the names of macros and fields that refer to DCT blocks, and
document that they have a different meaning in lossless mode. (Most
of them aren't very meaningful in lossless mode anyhow.)
* Remove the new alloc_darray() method from jpeg_memory_mgr and
replace it with an internal macro that wraps the alloc_sarray()
method.
* Move the JDIFF* data types from jpeglib.h and jmorecfg.h into
jpegint.h.
* Remove the new 'codec' field from jpeg_compress_struct and
jpeg_decompress_struct and instead reuse the existing internal
coefficient control, forward/inverse DCT, and entropy
encoding/decoding structures for lossless compression/decompression.
* Repurpose existing error codes rather than introducing new ones.
(The new JERR_BAD_RESTART and JWRN_MUST_DOWNSCALE codes remain,
although JWRN_MUST_DOWNSCALE will probably be removed in
libjpeg-turbo, since we have a different way of handling multiple
data precisions.)
- Automatically enable lossless mode when a scan script with parameters
that are only valid for lossless mode is detected, and document the
use of scan scripts to generate lossless JPEG images.
- Move the sequential and shared Huffman routines back into jchuff.c and
jdhuff.c, and document that those routines are shared with jclhuff.c
and jdlhuff.c as well as with jcphuff.c and jdphuff.c.
- Move MAX_DIFF_BITS from jchuff.h into jclhuff.c, the only place where
it is used.
- Move the predictor and scaler code into jclossls.c and jdlossls.c.
- Streamline register usage in the [un]differencers (inspired by similar
optimizations in the color [de]converters.)
- Restructure the logic in a few places to reduce duplicated code.
- Ensure that all lossless-specific code is guarded by
C_LOSSLESS_SUPPORTED or D_LOSSLESS_SUPPORTED and that the library can
be built successfully if either or both of those macros is undefined.
- Remove all short forms of external names introduced by the lossless
JPEG patch. (These will not be needed by libjpeg-turbo, so there is
no use cleaning them up.)
- Various wordsmithing, formatting, and punctuation tweaks
- Eliminate various compiler warnings.
Referring to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1050342,
there are certain very rare circumstances under which a malformed JPEG
image can cause different Huffman decoder output to be produced,
depending on the size of the source manager's I/O buffer. (More
specifically, the fast Huffman decoder didn't handle invalid codes in
the same manner as the slow decoder, and since the fast decoder requires
all data to be memory-resident, the buffering strategy determines
whether or not the fast decoder can be used on a particular MCU block.)
After extensive experimentation, the Mozilla and Chrome developers and I
determined that this truly was an innocuous issue. The patch that both
browsers adopted as a workaround caused a performance regression with
32-bit code, which is why it was not accepted into libjpeg-turbo. This
commit fixes the problem in a less disruptive way with no performance
regression.
With rare exceptions ...
- Always separate line continuation characters by one space from
preceding code.
- Always use two-space indentation. Never use tabs.
- Always use K&R-style conditional blocks.
- Always surround operators with spaces, except in raw assembly code.
- Always put a space after, but not before, a comma.
- Never put a space between type casts and variables/function calls.
- Never put a space between the function name and the argument list in
function declarations and prototypes.
- Always surround braces ('{' and '}') with spaces.
- Always surround statements (if, for, else, catch, while, do, switch)
with spaces.
- Always attach pointer symbols ('*' and '**') to the variable or
function name.
- Always precede pointer symbols ('*' and '**') by a space in type
casts.
- Use the MIN() macro from jpegint.h within the libjpeg and TurboJPEG
API libraries (using min() from tjutil.h is still necessary for
TJBench.)
- Where it makes sense (particularly in the TurboJPEG code), put a blank
line after variable declaration blocks.
- Always separate statements in one-liners by two spaces.
The purpose of this was to ease maintenance on my part and also to make
it easier for contributors to figure out how to format patch
submissions. This was admittedly confusing (even to me sometimes) when
we had 3 or 4 different style conventions in the same source tree. The
new convention is more consistent with the formatting of other OSS code
bases.
This commit corrects deviations from the chosen formatting style in the
libjpeg API code and reformats the TurboJPEG API code such that it
conforms to the same standard.
NOTES:
- Although it is no longer necessary for the function name in function
declarations to begin in Column 1 (this was historically necessary
because of the ansi2knr utility, which allowed libjpeg to be built
with non-ANSI compilers), we retain that formatting for the libjpeg
code because it improves readability when using libjpeg's function
attribute macros (GLOBAL(), etc.)
- This reformatting project was accomplished with the help of AStyle and
Uncrustify, although neither was completely up to the task, and thus
a great deal of manual tweaking was required. Note to developers of
code formatting utilities: the libjpeg-turbo code base is an
excellent test bed, because AFAICT, it breaks every single one of the
utilities that are currently available.
- The legacy (MMX, SSE, 3DNow!) assembly code for i386 has been
formatted to match the SSE2 code (refer to
ff5685d5344273df321eb63a005eaae19d2496e3.) I hadn't intended to
bother with this, but the Loongson MMI implementation demonstrated
that there is still academic value to the MMX implementation, as an
algorithmic model for other 64-bit vector implementations. Thus, it
is desirable to improve its readability in the same manner as that of
the SSE2 implementation.
The convention used by libjpeg:
type * variable;
is not very common anymore, because it looks too much like
multiplication. Some (particularly C++ programmers) prefer to tuck the
pointer symbol against the type:
type* variable;
to emphasize that a pointer to a type is effectively a new type.
However, this can also be confusing, since defining multiple variables
on the same line would not work properly:
type* variable1, variable2; /* Only variable1 is actually a
pointer. */
This commit reformats the entirety of the libjpeg-turbo code base so
that it uses the same code formatting convention for pointers that the
TurboJPEG API code uses:
type *variable1, *variable2;
This seems to be the most common convention among C programmers, and
it is the convention used by other codec libraries, such as libpng and
libtiff.
Fix a regression introduced in 1.4.1 that prevented 32-bit and 64-bit
libjpeg-turbo RPMs from being installed simultaneously on recent Red
Hat/Fedora distributions. This was due to the addition of the
SIZEOF_SIZE_T macro in jconfig.h, which allows the Huffman codec to
determine the word size at compile time. Since that macro differs
between 32-bit and 64-bit builds, this caused a conflict between the
i386 and x86_64 RPMs (any differing files, other than executables, are
not allowed when 32-bit and 64-bit RPMs are installed simultaneously.)
Since the macro is used only internally, it has been moved into
jconfigint.h.
Most of these involved overrunning the signed 32-bit JLONG type whenever
building libjpeg-turbo with a 32-bit compiler. These issues are not
believed to represent actual security threats, but eliminating them
makes it easier to detect such threats should they arise in the future.
These days, INT32 is a commonly-defined datatype in system headers. We
cannot eliminate the definition of that datatype from jmorecfg.h, since
the INT32 typedef has technically been part of the libjpeg API since
version 5 (1994.) However, using INT32 internally is risky, because the
inclusion of a particular header (Xmd.h, for instance) could change the
definition of INT32 from long to int on 64-bit platforms and thus change
the internal behavior of libjpeg-turbo in unexpected ways (for instance,
failing to correctly set __INT32_IS_ACTUALLY_LONG to match the INT32
typedef-- perhaps as a result of including the wrong version of
jpeglib.h-- could cause libjpeg-turbo to produce incorrect results.)
The library has always been built in environments in which INT32 is
effectively long (on Windows, long is always 32-bit, so effectively it's
the same as int), so it makes sense to turn INT32 into an explicitly
long datatype. This ensures that libjpeg-turbo will always behave
consistently, regardless of the headers included at compile time.
Addresses a concern expressed in #26.
The IJG README file has been renamed to README.ijg, in order to avoid
confusion (many people were assuming that that was our project's README
file and weren't reading README-turbo.txt) and to lay the groundwork for
markdown versions of the libjpeg-turbo README and build instructions.
