Alexander Moch a2ac9cd606 Zstd: Integrate v1.5.7 into the ZFS build system
This commit builds on the previous zstd library update and adds the
necessary ZFS integration and build system changes required to make
zstd 1.5.7 compile and function correctly.

Changes:
- Add zstd_preSplit.c (new in 1.5.7) to all build systems.
- Enable x86_64 assembly in userspace (huf_decompress_amd64.S).
- Disable assembly in kernel for RETHUNK/IBT compatibility.
- Disable intrinsics in kernel for EL10 x86_64-v3 baseline.
- Disable tracing in kernel builds for AArch64 compatibility.
- Fix ZSTD_isError symbol renaming with __asm__ directive.
- Rename abs64 to ZSTD_abs64 (FreeBSD kernel conflict).
- Fix bitstream.h attributes (MEM_STATIC -> FORCE_INLINE_TEMPLATE).
- Remove xxhash.c from BSD build (now header-only).
- Update symbol names in zstd_compat_wrapper.h.
- Ignore checkstyle for zstd-in.c.

Kernel assembly disabled for security mitigation compatibility. User
space retains full performance.

ZSTD-On-ZFS Library Manual

Introduction

This subtree contains the ZSTD library used in ZFS. It is heavily cut-down by dropping any unneeded files, and combined into a single file, but otherwise is intentionally unmodified. Please do not alter the file containing the zstd library, besides upgrading to a newer ZSTD release.

Tree structure:

  • zfs_zstd.c are the actual zfs kernel module hooks.
  • lib/ contains the unmodified version of the Zstandard library
  • zstd-in.c is our template file for generating the single-file library
  • include/: This directory contains supplemental includes for platform compatibility, which are not expected to be used by ZFS elsewhere in the future. Thus we keep them private to ZSTD.

Updating ZSTD

To update ZSTD the following steps need to be taken:

  1. Grab the latest release of ZSTD.
  2. Copy the files output by the following script to module/zstd/lib/: grep include [path to zstd]/contrib/single_file_libs/zstd-in.c | awk '{ print $2 }'
  3. Remove debug.c, threading.c, and zstdmt_compress.c.
  4. Update Makefiles with resulting file lists.
  5. Follow symbol renaming notes in include/zstd_compat_wrapper.h

Altering ZSTD and breaking changes

If ZSTD made changes that break compatibility or you need to make breaking changes to the way we handle ZSTD, it is required to maintain backwards compatibility.

We already save the ZSTD version number within the block header to be used to add future compatibility checks and/or fixes. However, currently it is not actually used in such a way.
