it is not compatible on different CPU architecture #139

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I have a data buffer which is processed by LZ4_compress_limitedOutput on a 
ppc32(big endian) CPU
2.then I move this data into another ppc64(big endian) CPU
3.and try  to decompress them with LZ4_decompress_safe

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected output:get the correct original data
actual output: the data decompressed on ppc64(big endian) is not correct

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r181, linux redhat

Please provide any additional information below.
null

There was a problem recently detected within the 64-bits detection macro when 
compiled under some specific compiler on AIX systems. Since AIX is generally 
associated with ppc hardware, maybe it could impact you too ?

The problem was fixed into a recent "dev" branch update :

https://github.com/Cyan4973/lz4/tree/dev

Would you mind testing if it does improve anything for you ?

Regards

I am trying the dev branch, and my compiler is ppc-unknow-linux-uclibc-gcc 4.4.1
hope it helpful.

Not sure to understand.

Do you mean :
- You tested latest "dev" branch on your described system and it failed
or
- You are planning to test latest "dev" branch on your system, and you hope it 
will work ?

I am testing on this brach:https://github.com/Cyan4973/lz4/tree/dev
and it works well right now.
then i need to integrate this branch into my project.
by the way, I noticed that some macro may have different behavior on diff cpu:
#deffine AARCH(x) (((size_t_S *)(x))->v)
#define STEPSIZE sizeof(size_t)

Yes, it's intentional.

I'm glad latest "dev" branch was enough to solve your problem.
