Bug description:
[Special SRU Notes]
The Artful SRU must be published before the Xenial SRU in order to
preserve the upgrade path.
[Impact]
* libzstd v0.5.1 is an experimental version,
which generates and read an experimental format
incompatible with official libzstd v1+ format.
* Backporting a newer version >= v1.0, such as artful's v1.3.1,
fixes this issue
* This backport/SRU is being requested by upstream.
[Test Case]
There are three major test cases: compression tests, package upgrade
tests, and release upgrade tests.
This SRU has so many tests because it's introducing a new package and
a carefully thought out upgrade plan.
a) compression tests
* with the pristine package from each release, compress a big file.
For example, /usr/bin/snap. Name the resulting compressed file
according to the version that was used to compress it, like this:
Xenial:
$ zstd /usr/bin/snap -o snap.0.5.1.zst
Compressed 15528016 bytes into 4134889 bytes ==> 26.63%
Artful:
$ zstd /usr/bin/snap -o snap.1.3.1.zst
/usr/bin/snap : 31.03% (11318760 => 3512707 bytes, snap.1.3.1.zst)
* Upgrade to the package made available through this SRU and compress
it again:
Xenial:
$ zstd /usr/bin/snap -o snap.1.3.1.zst
/usr/bin/snap : 25.11% (15528016 => 3899137 bytes, snap.1.3.1.zst)
Artful:
$ zstd /usr/bin/snap -o snap.1.3.1-updated.zst
/usr/bin/snap : 31.03% (11318760 => 3512707 bytes, snap.1.3.1-updated.zst)
* Uncompress all the generated files using the new version. This
proves it can handle files compressed by the old one:
Xenial:
$ zstd -d snap.0.5.1.zst -o snap.0.5.1
snap.0.5.1.zst : 15528016 bytes
$ zstd -d snap.1.3.1.zst -o snap.1.3.1
snap.1.3.1.zst : 15528016 bytes
Artful:
$ zstd -d snap.1.3.1.zst -o snap.1.3.1
snap.1.3.1.zst : 11318760 bytes
$ zstd -d snap.1.3.1-updated.zst -o snap.1.3.1-updated
snap.1.3.1-updated.zst: 11318760 bytes
* Take md5sums of all uncompressed files and the original. They must
of course match:
Xenial:
$ md5sum /usr/bin/snap snap.0.5.1 snap.1.3.1
0fa4fa69d79ef4685aaa93be5b3aa33f /usr/bin/snap
0fa4fa69d79ef4685aaa93be5b3aa33f snap.0.5.1
0fa4fa69d79ef4685aaa93be5b3aa33f snap.1.3.1
Artful:
$ md5sum /usr/bin/snap snap.1.3.1 snap.1.3.1-updated
0b65998bc775d444b2ee7d00cd18634a /usr/bin/snap
0b65998bc775d444b2ee7d00cd18634a snap.1.3.1
0b65998bc775d444b2ee7d00cd18634a snap.1.3.1-updated
* Downgrade zstd back to the original version of the ubuntu release
you are testing:
Xenial:
$ sudo apt install zstd=0.5.1-1
Artful:
$ sudo apt install zstd=1.3.1+dfsg-1 libzstd1=1.3.1+dfsg-1
* Try to decompress the zst file created with the 1.3.1 version from the previous test. In xenial only, it should fail to recognize the format:
$ zstd -d snap.1.3.1.zst -o /dev/null
zstd: /dev/null already exists; do you wish to overwrite (y/N) ? y
zstd: snap.1.3.1.zst: not in zstd format
In artful it should work:
$ zstd -d snap.1.3.1.zst -o snap.1.3.1-new
snap.1.3.1.zst : 11318760 bytes
* Still in artful, compare the md5, which should match:
$ md5sum snap.1.3.1-new /usr/bin/snap
0b65998bc775d444b2ee7d00cd18634a snap.1.3.1-new
0b65998bc775d444b2ee7d00cd18634a /usr/bin/snap
b) package upgrade tests
b.1)XENIAL
* Install the xenial original packages:
$ sudo apt install zstd=0.5.1-1 libzstd0=0.5.1-1 libzstd-dev=0.5.1-1
* Enable xenial-proposed and verify that a dist-upgrade will upgrade zstd, pull in the new libzstd1, and leave libzstd-dev alone:
$ sudo apt dist-upgrade
...
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd1
The following packages will be upgraded:
zstd
1 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* In the end you will have these installed, at these versions:
ii libzstd-dev 0.5.1-1
ii libzstd0 0.5.1-1
ii libzstd1 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
ii zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
* Installing the new versioned dev package should remove the unversioned one:
$ sudo apt install libzstd1-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libzstd-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd1-dev
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* The end result being:
ii libzstd0 0.5.1-1
ii libzstd1 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
ii libzstd1-dev 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
ii zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
* Conversely, installing the unversioned dev package removes the versioned one::
Installing libzstd-dev removes libzstd1-dev:
$ sudo apt install libzstd-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libzstd1-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd-dev
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* Start from scratch and reinstall the original xenial zstd packages:
$ sudo apt install zstd=0.5.1-1 libzstd0=0.5.1-1 libzstd-dev=0.5.1-1
* Verify that a simple apt upgrade (not dist-upgrade) upgrades zstd and installs the new libzstd1:
$ sudo apt upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd1
The following packages will be upgraded:
zstd
1 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 392 kB of archives.
After this operation, 904 kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
* After the upgrade, you should have:
ii libzstd-dev 0.5.1-1
ii libzstd0 0.5.1-1
ii libzstd1 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
ii zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1
b.2) ARTFUL
* starting with all original artful zstd packages installed:
ii libzstd-dev 1.3.1+dfsg-1
ii libzstd1 1.3.1+dfsg-1
ii zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1
* a dist-upgrade upgrades them just fine, with no new dependencies introduced:
The following packages will be upgraded:
libzstd-dev libzstd1 zstd
3 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* which results in:
ii libzstd-dev 1.3.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.1
ii libzstd1 1.3.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.1
ii zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.1
* libzstd1-dev, the transitional package, can also be installed just fine:
$ sudo apt install libzstd1-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd1-dev
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* removing libzstd-dev also removes libzstd1-dev:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libzstd-dev* libzstd1-dev*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
* installing just the new libzstd1-dev pull in the unversioned dev package:
$ sudo apt install libzstd1-dev
The following additional packages will be installed:
libzstd-dev libzstd1
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzstd-dev libzstd1 libzstd1-dev
0 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

ii zstd 1.3.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1
[Regression Potential]
* During transition, if some user switches to newer zstd version, and
then send compressed data to another user has not yet updated zstd,
the receiver will not be able to decompress as long as he does not
update.
* Note though that newer version contains a compatibility module
which makes it able to read data generated by older versions, such as
v0.5.1. Any existing document compressed with v0.5.1 will still be
readable after update to v1.3.1.
[Other Info]
* Linux kernel 4.14 now integrates zstd compression / decompression,
primarily for BtrFS and SquashFS, with patches available for reiser4,
zram, and initrd. Kernel version does not support compatibility
module, hence cannot read data from v0.5.1. Userland tools associated
with these services will fail if they link to Ubuntu LTS libzstd, as
generating incompatible data.
* On top of the incompatible format issue, libzstd v0.5.1 API is old
and missing several features that applications relying on libzstd
need, such as streaming interface, or bulk processing for dictionary
compression.
--- Original description ---
Please backport libzstd 1.3.1+dfsg-1 (universe) from artful to xenial.
Reason for the backport:
========================
Current version in Xenial is v0.5.1,
it's an experimental version, using its own, incompatible format.
As a consequence, zstd on Ubuntu Xenial is not compatible with the rest of the world.
This is of important concern for products using libzstd as a shared library :
on Ubuntu Xenial, produced data is different, not compatible with v1+.
This issue has been made more pressing with the integration of zstd in Linux Kernel,
as userland tools must also be updated to read and generate zstd.
Note : this request was first improperly filled at :

Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.
Backport available from PPA:

[X] Package builds without modification (needs debhelper 10)
[X] zstd installs cleanly and runs
[ ] zstd-dbgsym installs cleanly and runs
[ ] libzstd1-dbgsym installs cleanly and runs
[X] libzstd-dev installs cleanly and runs
