test: check zlib version for createDeflateRaw #13697

danbev · 2017-06-15T12:00:05Z

We are currenly builing Node with --shared-zlib which happens to be
version 1.2.8. The test for zlib.createDeflateRaw is expected to fail
but does not when using version 1.2.8.

As far as I can tell the fix referred to in the comments was
introduced in version 1.2.9:

- Reject a window size of 256 bytes if not using the zlib wrapper

This commit suggests adding a check for the version and skipping this
assert if the version is less than 1.2.9.

-assert.throws(() => {
-  zlib.createDeflateRaw({ windowBits: 8 });
-}, /^Error: Init error$/);
+if (process.versions.zlib.match(/^\d+\.\d+\.[9]|\d{2,}$/)) {


I think it would be good to include a link to the reasoning in zlib for this directly rather than having people blame and dig the link from the PR - but I'm fine with other way.

Good point, let me add a comment and see what you think. Thanks

Could you use test() instead of match(). And +1 to adding the comment.

No problem, I'll change this.

LGTM once the comment is added.

+if (/^\d+\.\d+\.[9]|\d{2,}$/.test(process.versions.zlib)) {


Is this regexp correct? What about a theoretical zlib 1.3.0?

It could probably be made stricter, yes. I also don’t quit get the |\d{2,}$ part – are there missing parentheses? /^a|b$/ is grouped as /(^a)|(b$)/, not /^(a|b)$/, but you probably meant something like the latter?

@richardlau You are right, I missed that :(
@addaleax @richardlau I think I went at this the wrong way trying to match allowed versions. I hope I've managed to simplify the expression by trying to detect an invalid version instead. Let me know what you think.

Isn’t this equivalent to (!/^1\.2\.[0-8]$/.test(process.versions.zlib))? That would look a bit simpler to me.

Yeah, I was choosing between the both and had a trouble making up my mind. I'd be happy to change it.

Thanks, I'll fix this.

should this be backported to v6.x?

danbev · 2017-08-15T06:21:35Z

I don't think this needs to be backported. Sorry again about the late/missed reply on this.

drewfish · 2017-09-13T21:26:25Z

BTW here at Yahoo we just backported this to our internal v6.x branch, since we ./configure --shared-zlib with an older version of zlib.

MylesBorins · 2017-09-14T00:27:05Z

@drewfish would you be willing to submit your patch as a backport to v6.x-staging? There are a ton of conflicts rn, but I'm sure we would be willing to land it so you don't need to float it.

Also fwiw... if you are floating any other patches on 6.x please feel free to open an issue on https://github.com/nodejs/lts for us to take a look
