2012-06-14Docs: Move xz_pipe_comp.c and xz_pipe_decomp.c to doc/examples_old.Lasse Collin2-0/+0
It is good to keep these around to so that if someone has copied the decompressor bug from xz_pipe_decomp.c he has an example how to easily fix it.

2012-05-28liblzma: Fix possibility of incorrect LZMA_BUF_ERROR.Lasse Collin3-2/+116
lzma_code() could incorrectly return LZMA_BUF_ERROR if all of the following was true: - The caller knows how many bytes of output to expect and only provides that much output space. - When the last output bytes are decoded, the caller-provided input buffer ends right before the LZMA2 end of payload marker. So LZMA2 won't provide more output anymore, but it won't know it yet and thus won't return LZMA_STREAM_END yet. - A BCJ filter is in use and it hasn't left any unfiltered bytes in the temp buffer. This can happen with any BCJ filter, but in practice it's more likely with filters other than the x86 BCJ. Another situation where the bug can be triggered happens if the uncompressed size is zero bytes and no output space is provided. In this case the decompression can fail even if the whole input file is given to lzma_code(). A similar bug was fixed in XZ Embedded on 2011-09-19.

2012-02-22Fix exit status of xzgrep when grepping binary files.Lasse Collin1-1/+2
When grepping binary files, grep may exit before it has read all the input. In this case, gzip -q returns 2 (eating SIGPIPE), but xz and bzip2 show SIGPIPE as the exit status (e.g. 141). This causes wrong exit status when grepping xz- or bzip2-compressed binary files. The fix checks for the special exit status that indicates SIGPIPE. It uses kill -l which should be supported everywhere since it is in both SUSv2 (1997) and POSIX.1-2008. Thanks to James Buren for the bug report.

2011-08-06Run the scripts with the correct shell in test_scripts.sh.Lasse Collin2-8/+8
The scripts are now made executable in the build tree. This way the scripts can be run like programs in test_scripts.sh. Previously test_scripts.sh always used sh but it's not correct if @POSIX_SHELL@ is set to something else by configure. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the patch.
2011-07-31Fix exit status of "xzdiff foo.xz bar.xz".Lasse Collin3-1/+59
xzdiff was clobbering the exit status from diff in a case statement used to analyze the exit statuses from "xz" when its operands were two compressed files. Save and restore diff's exit status to fix this. The bug is inherited from zdiff in GNU gzip and was fixed there on 2009-10-09. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the patch and to Peter Pallinger for reporting the bug.

Thanks to Jim Meyering.
2011-05-28liblzma: Use symbol versioning.Lasse Collin5-0/+201
Symbol versioning is enabled by default on GNU/Linux, other GNU-based systems, and FreeBSD. I'm not sure how stable this is, so it may need backward-incompatible changes before the next release. The idea is that alpha and beta symbols are considered unstable and require recompiling the applications that use those symbols. Once a symbol is stable, it may get extended with new features in ways that don't break compatibility with older ABI & API. The mydist target runs validate_map.sh which should catch some probable problems in liblzma.map. Otherwise I would forget to update the map file for new releases.

French needs a space before a colon, e.g. "xz : foo error".
2011-05-21liblzma: Try to use SHA-256 from the operating system.Lasse Collin3-8/+131
If the operating system libc or other base libraries provide SHA-256, use that instead of our own copy. Note that this doesn't use OpenSSL or libgcrypt or such libraries to avoid creating dependencies to other packages. This supports at least FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, MINIX, and Darwin. They all provide similar but not identical SHA-256 APIs; everyone is a little different. Thanks to Wim Lewis for the original patch, improvements, and testing.

Now the following works as you would expect: echo foo | xz > foo.xz echo bar | xz >> foo.xz ( xz -dc --single-stream ; xz -dc --single-stream ) < foo.xz Note that it doesn't work if the input is not seekable or if there is Stream Padding between the concatenated .xz Streams.

2011-04-19Fix portability problems in mythread.h.Lasse Collin2-4/+34
Use gettimeofday() if clock_gettime() isn't available (e.g. Darwin). The test for availability of pthread_condattr_setclock() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC was incorrect. Instead of fixing the #ifdefs, use an Autoconf test. That way if there exists a system that supports them but doesn't specify the matching POSIX #defines, the features will still get detected. Don't try to use pthread_sigmask() on OpenVMS. It doesn't have that function. Guard mythread.h against being #included multiple times.

2011-04-11liblzma: Add lzma_stream_encoder_mt() for threaded compression.Lasse Collin8-1/+1539
This is the simplest method to do threading, which splits the uncompressed data into blocks and compresses them independently from each other. There's room for improvement especially to reduce the memory usage, but nevertheless, this is a good start.
2011-04-11liblzma: Add the forgotten lzma_lzma2_block_size().Lasse Collin2-0/+12

2011-04-11liblzma: Don't create an empty Block in lzma_stream_buffer_encode().Lasse Collin1-7/+13
Empty Block was created if the input buffer was empty. Empty Block wastes a few bytes of space, but more importantly it triggers a bug in XZ Utils 5.0.1 and older when trying to decompress such a file. 5.0.1 and older consider such files to be corrupt. I thought that no encoder creates empty Blocks when releasing 5.0.2 but I was wrong.
2011-04-11liblzma: Fix API docs to mention LZMA_UNSUPPORTED_CHECK.Lasse Collin2-0/+4
This return value was missing from the API comments of four functions.
2011-04-11liblzma: Validate encoder arguments better.Lasse Collin3-6/+20
The biggest problem was that the integrity check type wasn't validated, and e.g. lzma_easy_buffer_encode() would create a corrupt .xz Stream if given an unsupported Check ID. Luckily applications don't usually try to use an unsupport Check ID, so this bug is unlikely to cause many real-world problems.

2011-04-10Revise mythread.h.Lasse Collin2-20/+181
This adds: - mythread_sync() macro to create synchronized blocks - mythread_cond structure and related functions and macros for condition variables with timed waiting using a relative timeout - mythread_create() to create a thread with all signals blocked Some of these wouldn't need to be inline functions, but I'll keep them this way for now for simplicity. For timed waiting on a condition variable, librt is now required on some systems to use clock_gettime(). configure.ac was updated to handle this.

2011-04-10xz/DOS: Add experimental 8.3 filename support.Lasse Collin1-9/+167
This is incompatible with the 8.3 support patch made by Juan Manuel Guerrero. I think this one is nicer, but I need to get feedback from DOS users before saying that this is the final version of 8.3 filename support.
2011-04-10xz/DOS: Be more careful with the destination file.Lasse Collin1-2/+33
Try to avoid overwriting the source file if --force is used and the generated destination filename refers to the source file. This can happen with 8.3 filenames where extra characters are ignored. If the generated output file refers to a special file like "con" or "prn", refuse to write to it even if --force is used.

2011-03-31liblzma: Fix decoding of LZMA2 streams having no uncompressed data.Lasse Collin1-4/+4
The decoder considered empty LZMA2 streams to be corrupt. This shouldn't matter much with .xz files, because no encoder creates empty LZMA2 streams in .xz. This bug is more likely to cause problems in applications that use raw LZMA2 streams.

It didn't work at all. It tried to use the -q option for grep, but it appended it after "--". This works around it by redirecting to /dev/null. The downside is that this can be slower with big files compared to proper use of "grep -q". Thanks to Gregory Margo.

Currently the file list generated by Doxygen has src/ at the beginning of each path. Paths like common/sysdefs.h and liblzma/api/lzma.h are easier to read without such a prefix. Builds from a separate build directory with mkdir build cd build ../configure doxygen Doxyfile include an even longer prefix /home/someone/src/xz/src; this patch has the nice side-effect of eliminating that prefix, too.

2010-10-26Build: Copy the example programs to $docdir/examples.Lasse Collin2-1/+7
The example programs by Daniel Mealha Cabrita were included in the git repository, but I had forgot to add them to Makefile.am. Thus, they didn't get included in the source package at all by "make dist".
2010-10-26liblzma: Rename a few variables and constants.Lasse Collin8-186/+183
This has no semantic changes. I find the new names slightly more logical and they match the names that are already used in XZ Embedded. The name fastpos wasn't changed (not worth the hassle).
2010-10-25Bump version 5.1.0alpha.larhzu/v5.1.0alphaLasse Collin1-2/+2
2010-10-23Build: Fix mydist rule when .git doesn't exist.larhzu/v5.0.0Lasse Collin1-0/+1
2010-10-23Add NEWS for 5.0.0.Lasse Collin1-0/+62
2010-10-23Bump version to 5.0.0 and liblzma version-info to 5:0:0.Lasse Collin2-5/+5
2010-10-23liblzma: Make lzma_code() check the reserved members in lzma_stream.Lasse Collin1-0/+14
If any of the reserved members in lzma_stream are non-zero or non-NULL, LZMA_OPTIONS_ERROR is returned. It is possible that a new feature in the future is indicated by just setting a reserved member to some other value, so the old liblzma version need to catch it as an unsupported feature.
2010-10-23Windows: Use MinGW's stdio functions.Lasse Collin1-0/+5
The non-standard ones from msvcrt.dll appear to work most of the time with XZ Utils, but there are some corner cases where things may go very wrong. So it's good to use the better replacements provided by MinGW(-w64) runtime.
2010-10-23liblzma: Use 512 as INDEX_GROUP_SIZE.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
This lets compiler use shifting instead of 64-bit division.
2010-10-23liblzma: A few ABI tweaks to reserve space in structures.Lasse Collin3-7/+8
2010-10-21xz: Make sure that message_strm() can never return NULL.Lasse Collin1-2/+5
2010-10-21liblzma: Update the comments in the API headers.Lasse Collin14-107/+136
Adding support for LZMA_FINISH for Index encoding and decoding needed tiny additions to the relevant .c files too.
2010-10-19Update INSTALL.generic.Lasse Collin1-18/+81
2010-10-19Clean up a few FIXMEs and TODOs.Lasse Collin6-7/+8
lzma_chunk_size() was commented out because it is currently useless.
2010-10-19Update docs.Lasse Collin4-143/+172
2010-10-12xz: Avoid raise() also on OpenVMS.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
This is similar to DOS/DJGPP that killing the program with a signal will print a backtrace or a similar message.
2010-10-11xz: Avoid SA_RESTART for portability reasons.Lasse Collin3-23/+25
SA_RESTART is not as portable as I had hoped. It's missing at least from OpenVMS, QNX, and DJGPP). Luckily we can do fine without SA_RESTART.
2010-10-10xz: Use "%"PRIu32 instead of "%d" in a format string.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-10-10test_files.sh: Fix the first line.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
For some reason this prevented running the test only on OS/2 and even on that it broke only recently. Thanks to Elbert Pol.
2010-10-10lzmainfo: Use "%"PRIu32 instead of "%u" for uint32_t.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-10-10lzmainfo: Use fileno(stdin) instead of STDIN_FILENO.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-10-09lzmainfo: Use setmode() on DOS-like systems.Lasse Collin1-0/+9
2010-10-09OS/2 and DOS: Be less verbose on signals.Lasse Collin1-0/+7
Calling raise() to kill xz when user has pressed C-c is a bit verbose on OS/2 and DOS/DJGPP. Instead of calling raise(), set only the exit status to 1.
2010-10-09DOS: Update the Makefile, config.h and README.Lasse Collin3-243/+86
This is now simpler and builds only xz.exe.
2010-10-09Windows: Put some license info into README-Windows.txt.Lasse Collin1-4/+4
2010-10-09Windows: Fix a diagnostics bug in build.bash.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-10-09lzmainfo: Add Windows resource file.Lasse Collin2-0/+21
2010-10-09Add missing public domain notice to lzmadec_w32res.rc.Lasse Collin1-0/+7
2010-10-09Windows: Update common_w32res.rc.Lasse Collin1-6/+3
2010-10-09Windows: Make build.bash prefer MinGW-w32 over MinGW.Lasse Collin1-9/+9
This is simply for licensing reasons. The 64-bit version will be built with MinGW-w64 anyway (at least for now), so using it also for 32-bit build allows using the same copyright notice about the MinGW-w64/w32 runtime. Note that using MinGW would require a copyright notice too, because its runtime is not in the public domain either even though MinGW's home page claims that it is public domain. See <http://marc.info/?l=mingw-users&m=126489506214078>.
2010-10-09Windows: Copy COPYING-Windows.txt (if it exists) to the package.Lasse Collin1-2/+12
Also, put README-Windows.txt to the doc directory like the other documentation files.
2010-10-08Windows: Fix build.bash again.Lasse Collin1-3/+4
630a8beda34af0ac153c8051b1bf01230558e422 wasn't good.
2010-10-08Use LZMA_VERSION_STRING instead of PACKAGE_VERSION.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
Those are the same thing, and the former makes it a bit easier to build the code with other build systems, because one doesn't need to update the version number into custom config.h. This change affects only lzmainfo. Other tools were already using LZMA_VERSION_STRING.
2010-10-08configure.ac: Remove two unused defines.Lasse Collin1-4/+0
2010-10-08Make tests accommodate missing xz or xzdec.Lasse Collin2-19/+56
2010-10-08Build: Add options to disable individual command line tools.Lasse Collin5-40/+93
2010-10-07Windows: Make build.bash work without --enable-dynamic=no.Lasse Collin1-2/+2
2010-10-05Build: Remove the static/dynamic tricks.Lasse Collin6-91/+5
Most distros want xz linked against shared liblzma, so it doesn't help much to require --enable-dynamic for that. Those who want to avoid PIC on x86-32 to get better performance, can still do it e.g. by using --disable-shared to compile xz and then another pass to compile shared liblzma. Part of these static/dynamic tricks were needed for Windows in the past. Nowadays we rely on GCC and binutils to do the right thing with auto-import. If the Autotooled build system needs to support some other toolchain on Windows in the future, this may need some rethinking.
2010-10-05configure.ac: Silence a warning from Autoconf 2.68.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-10-04A few more languages files to the xz man page.Lasse Collin1-21/+24
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder.
2010-10-02Update the FAQ.Lasse Collin1-4/+100
2010-10-02liblzma: Small fixes to comments in the API headers.Lasse Collin1-3/+7
2010-09-28Create the PDF versions of the man pages better.Lasse Collin2-6/+66
2010-09-28Move version.sh to build-aux.Lasse Collin4-4/+4
2010-09-28Update .gitignore.Lasse Collin1-1/+9
2010-09-28Fix accomodate -> accommodate on the xz man page.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
2010-09-27Major man page updates.Lasse Collin7-641/+1435
Lots of content was updated on the xz man page. Technical improvements: - Start a new sentence on a new line. - Use fairly short lines. - Use constant-width font for examples (where supported). - Some minor cleanups. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for some language fixes.
2010-09-26Fix the preset -3e.Lasse Collin1-0/+1
depth=0 was missing.
2010-09-23Add translations.bash and translation notes to README.Lasse Collin2-4/+192
translations.bash prints some messages from xz, which hopefully makes it a bit easier to test translations.
