DRC e8b40f3c 2022-11-01T21:45:39 Vastly improve 12-bit JPEG integration The Gordian knot that 7fec5074f962b20ed00b4f5da4533e1e8d4ed8ac attempted to unravel was caused by the fact that there are several data-precision-dependent (JSAMPLE-dependent) fields and methods in the exposed libjpeg API structures, and if you change the exposed libjpeg API structures, then you have to change the whole API. If you change the whole API, then you have to provide a whole new library to support the new API, and that makes it difficult to support multiple data precisions in the same application. (It is not impossible, as example.c demonstrated, but using data-precision-dependent libjpeg API structures would have made the cjpeg, djpeg, and jpegtran source code hard to read, so it made more sense to build, install, and package 12-bit-specific versions of those applications.) Unfortunately, the result of that initial integration effort was an unreadable and unmaintainable mess, which is a problem for a library that is an ISO/ITU-T reference implementation. Also, as I dug into the problem of lossless JPEG support, I realized that 16-bit lossless JPEG images are a thing, and supporting yet another version of the libjpeg API just for those images is untenable. In fact, however, the touch points for JSAMPLE in the exposed libjpeg API structures are minimal: - The colormap and sample_range_limit fields in jpeg_decompress_struct - The alloc_sarray() and access_virt_sarray() methods in jpeg_memory_mgr - jpeg_write_scanlines() and jpeg_write_raw_data() - jpeg_read_scanlines() and jpeg_read_raw_data() - jpeg_skip_scanlines() and jpeg_crop_scanline() (This is subtle, but both of those functions use JSAMPLE-dependent opaque structures behind the scenes.) It is much more readable and maintainable to provide 12-bit-specific versions of those six top-level API functions and to document that the aforementioned methods and fields must be type-cast when using 12-bit samples. Since that eliminates the need to provide a 12-bit-specific version of the exposed libjpeg API structures, we can: - Compile only the precision-dependent libjpeg modules (the coefficient buffer controllers, the colorspace converters, the DCT/IDCT managers, the main buffer controllers, the preprocessing and postprocessing controller, the downsampler and upsamplers, the quantizers, the integer DCT methods, and the IDCT methods) for multiple data precisions. - Introduce 12-bit-specific methods into the various internal structures defined in jpegint.h. - Create precision-independent data type, macro, method, field, and function names that are prefixed by an underscore, and use an internal header to convert those into precision-dependent data type, macro, method, field, and function names, based on the value of BITS_IN_JSAMPLE, when compiling the precision-dependent libjpeg modules. - Expose precision-dependent jinit*() functions for each of the precision-dependent libjpeg modules. - Abstract the precision-dependent libjpeg modules by calling the appropriate precision-dependent jinit*() function, based on the value of cinfo->data_precision, from top-level libjpeg API functions.
DRC 7fec5074 2022-03-08T12:34:11 Support 8-bit & 12-bit JPEGs using the same build Partially implements #199 This commit also implements a request from #178 (the ability to compile the libjpeg example as a standalone program.)
DRC 01e30323 2019-01-23T14:58:24 Eliminate support for compilers w/o unsigned char libjpeg-turbo has never really supported such compilers, since (AFAIK) they are non-existent on any modern computing platform and thus impossible for us to test. (Also, the TurboJPEG API would break without unsigned chars.) Furthermore, the unified CMake-based build system introduced in 2.0 always defines HAVE_UNSIGNED_CHAR, so retaining other code paths is pointless. Eliminating support for compilers without unsigned char eliminates the need for the GETJSAMPLE() macro, which improves the readability of many parts of the code as well as improving the performance of writing Targa and Windows BMP files. Fixes #317
DRC a6289526 2018-07-24T18:36:51 Fix JPEG spec references per ISO/ITU-T suggestions - When referring to specific clauses, annexes, tables, and figures, a "timed reference" (a reference that includes the year) must be used in order to avoid confusion. - "CCITT" = "ITU-T" - Replace ambiguous "JPEG spec" with the specific document number.
DRC da2a27ef 2017-03-18T16:15:14 Honor max_memory_to_use/JPEGMEM/-maxmemory This re-introduces a feature of the obsolete system-specific libjpeg memory managers-- namely the ability to limit the amount of main memory used by the library during decompression or multi-pass compression. This is mainly beneficial for two reasons: - Works around a 2 GB limit in libFuzzer - Allows security-sensitive applications to set a memory limit for the JPEG decoder so as to work around the progressive JPEG exploit (LJT-01-004) described here: http://www.libjpeg-turbo.org/pmwiki/uploads/About/TwoIssueswiththeJPEGStandard.pdf This commit also removes obsolete documentation regarding the MS-DOS memory manager (which itself was removed long ago) and changes the documentation of the -maxmemory switch and JPEGMEM environment variable to reflect the fact that backing stores are never used in libjpeg-turbo.
