Includes our local patch to conditionalize use of __builtin_clz(ll) on Clang's __has_builtin() (which is just defined to false when building with GCC). The issue is tracked upstream at https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/884 . Otherwise, these are vanilla Zstandard 1.3.4 files. Reported by: allanjude, Yann Collet Sponsored by: Dell EMC Isilon |

Zstandard Documentation
This directory contains material defining the Zstandard format,
as well as detailed instructions to use zstd library.
zstd_manual.html : Documentation of zstd.h API, in html format.

zstd_compression_format.md : This document defines the Zstandard compression format.
Compliant decoders must adhere to this document,
and compliant encoders must generate data that follows it.
Should you look for ressources to develop your own port of Zstandard algorithm, you may find the following ressources useful :
educational_decoder : This directory contains an implementation of a Zstandard decoder,
compliant with the Zstandard compression format.
It can be used, for example, to better understand the format,
or as the basis for a separate implementation of Zstandard decoder.
decode_corpus :
This tool, stored in /tests directory, is able to generate random valid frames,
which is useful if you wish to test your decoder and verify it fully supports the specification.
