Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds ZSTD streaming compression, but the current implementation can fail initialization on some checksum configurations and may pass invalid input to the decompressor when given a NULL buffer with a nonzero length. This can disrupt compression or cause invalid memory access, so the change is not merge-ready until these risks are fixed or explicitly accepted. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Adds replication wire compression on top of valkey-io#3531 with lz4 as the first supported codec for the incremental replication stream. The replication stream from primary to replica is wrapped in a VKCS envelope (using STREAM_KIND_REPL) and compressed as a single long-lived frame at the per-replica buffer layer. Default behavior is unchanged with 'replcompression no'; existing replicas without the new capability stay uncompressed. Negotiation is per-replica via the existing PSYNC handshake; a new REPLICA_CAPA_COMPRESSION capability lets each side opt in independently. Compression runs inline on the IO thread that owns the replica's write job; no dedicated compression thread, no IPC, no reordering. Optional sticky thread affinity (lazy ownership + event-driven rebalance) keeps the long-lived LZ4 frame state on a single IO thread for cache locality. Configs: replcompression bool, default no repl-compression-thread-affinity bool, default yes Internal constants: REPLICA_CAPA_COMPRESSION (1 << 4) REPL_COMPRESSION_ALGO ALGO_LZ4 REPL_COMPRESSION_LEVEL 0 (LZ4 fast mode) REPL_COMPRESSION_BATCH_LIMIT 1 MB raw input per dispatch REPL_STREAM_DECODER_OUTPUT_MAX 256 MB INFO replication per-replica fields: compression=lz4, compressed_bytes, uncompressed_bytes, compression_ratio, compression_errors, compression_cpu_usec, debug_compression_pending_drains, debug_thread_switches INFO replication server-level (replica side): repl_decompression_errors, repl_decompression_cpu_usec, repl_decompressed_bytes_total, repl_apply_cpu_usec, repl_apply_batches CI adds a test-replication-compression job that runs the replication-tagged integration tests with replcompression=yes to exercise compression across the broader replication test surface. Tests: 18 streamReader push-mode unit tests + 3 replCompression unit tests + 27 integration tests. Performance (BlockMesh tweets, 3M keys x ~315 byte JSON values, 1,073 MB uncompressed per replica, 30 clients, pipeline 50, 2 cross-region replicas): LZ4 level 0 (default): 0.48 ratio, 52% bandwidth saved, 2.5s compression CPU per replica, <1% throughput overhead vs uncompressed baseline. Affinity ON vs OFF: throughput unchanged (118.6K vs 118.1K keys/s) but thread switches drop from ~800K to ~30 per replica. ZSTD support follows in valkey-io#3798. Related to valkey-io#3531.

Inline comments:
In @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Around line 257-259: Update the 32-bit job’s make step to point pkg-config at
the i386 metadata, using PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkgconfig or
the i386-linux-gnu-pkg-config executable. Ensure this applies to the 32bit make
target so ZSTD_CFLAGS resolves correctly when BUILD_ZSTD=yes.
In `@CMakeLists.txt`:
- Line 17: Preserve command-line BUILD_ZSTD values by preventing the top-level
cache declaration from overwriting them before include(ValkeySetup) reads the
option. Initialize the default only when BUILD_ZSTD is unset, and remove the
duplicate unset(BUILD_ZSTD CACHE) from ValkeySetup while retaining the top-level
cleanup.
In `@deps/lz4/xxhash.h`:
- Around line 152-156: Update the deps/lz4 Makefile xxhash.o build to define
XXH_NAMESPACE as LZ4_, ensuring exported XXH32 and XXH64 symbols use the LZ4_
prefix; do not modify the vendored xxHash header, and preserve the existing
upstream source.
In `@src/compression_zstd.c`:
- Around line 13-18: Update compressionZstdDecompressorInit so the
ZSTD_d_forceIgnoreChecksum parameter call is best effort: check its return value
with ZSTD_isError(ret), avoid returning C_ERR on rejection, and leave
sd->skip_codec_checksum_validation disabled. Preserve normal decompressor
initialization and checksum-skipping behavior when the parameter is accepted.
In `@src/rio.c`:
- Around line 293-303: Ensure streaming-compressed RDB handling is limited to
file-backed readers: update the compressed RDB load path around rdbLoad() to
reject non-file sources initialized through rioInitWithConn or rioInitWithFd
before they reach the stream reader, or implement read_some for those backends
so rioReadRawPartial does not fail. Preserve existing file-backed behavior and
avoid leaving read_some NULL for any backend that can process compressed RDB
data.
In `@src/unit/Makefile`:
- Around line 111-149: Synchronize the Zstandard feature decision so
valkey-unit-gtests and valkeylib-gtest compile with the same HAVE_ZSTD behavior.
In src/unit/Makefile lines 111-149, derive and propagate one shared Zstandard
compile flag for both the unit tests and linked library; in
src/unit/CMakeLists.txt lines 31-34, apply the same BUILD_WITH_ZSTD decision to
valkey-unit-gtests rather than relying only on valkeylib-gtest’s private
definitions and linking.
In `@src/valkey-check-rdb.c`:
- Around line 883-890: Update the rdbstate.error branch in the EOF error
handling block to pass the runtime error text as a formatted argument to
rdbCheckError, using the established safe "%s" pattern rather than treating
rdbstate.error as the format string. Leave the other error branches unchanged.
In `@tests/integration/valkey-check-rdb.tcl`:
- Line 322: Remove the ineffective assert_no_match in the valkey-check-rdb test,
or update it to target a verified string that valkey-check-rdb actually emits.
Ensure the assertion exercises real command output rather than the nonexistent
“integrity is verified by the codec frame checksums” text.
In `@valkey.conf`:
- Around line 601-604: Add a “Supported by Valkey 9.2 and later” release note to
the zstd entry alongside the existing lz4 note, after confirming 9.2 is the
intended release against the version marker in src/version.h. Keep the
compression option descriptions otherwise unchanged.

First review round. I only looked at the Makefile and conditional compilation. I think we should follow the style of TLS and RDMA instead and the code will shrink.
I didn't even look at CMake but I assume the pattern is the same.

Add Zstandard as an optional VCS codec for regular RDB snapshots, disk-based, diskless, and dual-channel full synchronization, and incremental replication. Keep the dependency behind an explicit BUILD_ZSTD opt-in for Make and CMake, account codec allocations through Valkey's allocator, retain compression history across replication write batches, and bound checksummed Zstandard frames at 1 MiB of raw input. Cover build configuration, codec behavior, framing, corruption, negotiation, fallback, and enabled and disabled build paths with unit and integration tests.

Review round 2: Compression layer abstraction. If the abstraction would be well-designed, we wouldn't see any algo == ALGO_ZSTD checks in networking.c or replication.c. See suggestions below.

Please push fixes as separate commits, without force-push. It makes it easier to do incremental reviews, looking only at the difference since the last round. |

Keep Zstandard explicitly enabled, persist the optional installation prefix, and avoid feature probes during clean-only invocations. Expose codec support and integrity properties through the compression layer so callers do not depend on build macros or codec-specific reset behavior. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>
Keep the VCS envelope link-scoped while allowing codecs to use concatenated frames when integrity policy requires bounded frames. Move codec facts behind the compression API, preserve LZ4 behavior, and consolidate RDB and replication coverage across both codecs. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>
Exercise Zstandard in representative Daily jobs and verify replication checksum rejection and compression history retention across small write batches. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>
Install Alpine's static Zstandard archive and enable Zstandard in the Ubuntu TLS Daily jobs so replication compression also runs over integrity-checked connections. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>
Reinstate codec parity for replication recovery, RDB edge cases, and diskless load paths that were lost during test consolidation. Add a focused production-wire assertion for bounded Zstd replication frames without inspecting codec header fields. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>

Thanks @zuiderkwast for the detailed feedback. This was quite helpful. I think I have addressed all the recommendations, so the PR should look better.
Apologies for the force push. I was using AI to push, and apparently AI likes to do force pushes. I have split it into separate commits now so hopefully it's better. |

Well, it depends what you tell it to do. Personally, I let it commit, but not push. And often it forgets to signoff and likes to amend, but it's possible to tell it what to do... (I'm pretty bad at putting these rules into agent files though.) |

Pointed out by @zuiderkwast in [PR #3798](#3798 (comment)). Valkey remembers that TLS was enabled between builds, but not which OpenSSL installation was selected. After building with a custom `OPENSSL_PREFIX`, running a plain `make` later may discover a different system OpenSSL. This changes the build flags, triggers an unexpected full rebuild, and links Valkey against an unintended OpenSSL installation. Signed-off-by: Sarthak Aggarwal <sarthagg@amazon.com>

Zstd is great for compression ratio and would be useful for both replication compression and rdb compression. The save time worse as compared to LZ4 because it tries to compress much harder. The load time is faster because since it compressed harder, it has much lesser data to load from the disk.
Zstd is specially useful for replication compression across regions where network costs are quite significant as compared to compute. We want to save as much data as possible while transferring data over the regions.
