This tests some complicated interactions with the --suffix= option.
The suffix option must be used with --format=raw, but can optionally
be used to override the default .xz suffix.
This test also verifies some recent bugs have been correctly solved
and to hopefully avoid further regressions in the future.
|
|
The suffix refactor done in 99575947a58a60416c570eb78038d18a1ea4cef4
had a small regression where raw format compression to standard out
failed if a suffix was not set. In this case, setting the suffix did
not make sense since a file is not created.
Now, xz should only fail when a suffix is not provided when it is
actually needed.
For instance:
echo "foo" | xz --format=raw --lzma2 | wc -c
does not need a suffix check since it creates no files. But:
xz --format=raw --lzma2 --suffix=.bar foo
Needs the suffix to be set since it must create foo.bar.

The macro lzma_attr_visibility_hidden has to be defined to make
fastpos.h usable. The visibility attribute is irrelevant to
fastpos_tablegen.c so simply #define the macro to an empty value.
fastpos_tablegen.c is never built by the included build systems
and so the problem wasn't noticed earlier. It's just a standalone
program for generating fastpos_table.c.

These variables are internal to liblzma and not exposed in the API.
|
|
In ELF shared libs:
-fvisibility=hidden affects definitions of symbols but not
declarations.[*] This doesn't affect direct calls to functions
inside liblzma as a linker can replace a call to lzma_foo@plt
with a call directly to lzma_foo when -fvisibility=hidden is used.
[*] It has to be like this because otherwise every installed
header file would need to explictly set the symbol visibility
to default.
When accessing extern variables that aren't defined in the
same translation unit, compiler assumes that the variable has
the default visibility and thus indirection is needed. Unlike
function calls, linker cannot optimize this.
Using __attribute__((__visibility__("hidden"))) with the extern
variable declarations tells the compiler that indirection isn't
needed because the definition is in the same shared library.
About 15+ years ago, someone told me that it would be good if
the CRC tables would be defined in the same translation unit
as the C code of the CRC functions. While I understood that it
could help a tiny amount, I didn't want to change the code because
a separate translation unit for the CRC tables was needed for the
x86 assembly code anyway. But when visibility attributes are
supported, simply marking the extern declaration with the
hidden attribute will get identical result. When there are only
a few affected variables, this is trivial to do. I wish I had
understood this back then already.

MinGW (formely a MinGW.org Project, later the MinGW.OSDN Project
at <https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/>) has GCC 9.2.0 as the
most recent GCC package (released 2021-02-02). The project might
still be alive but majority of people have switched to MinGW-w64.
Thus it seems clearer to refer to MinGW-w64 in our API headers too.
Building with MinGW is likely to still work but I haven't tested it
in the recent years.
|
|
A CMake option LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT is created if and only if
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 affects sizeof(off_t).
This is needed on many 32-bit platforms and even with 64-bit builds
with MinGW-w64 to get support for files larger than 2 GiB.
|
|
Autotools based build uses -pthread and thus adds it to Libs.private
in liblzma.pc. CMake doesn't use -pthread at all if pthread functions
are available in libc so Libs.private doesn't get -pthread either.
|
|
The windres workaround now replaces spaces with \x20 so
the package name isn't repeated.
These changes will help with creation of liblzma.pc.
|
|
It properly adds -DLZMA_API_STATIC when compiling code that
will be linked against static liblzma. Having it there on
systems other than Windows does no harm.
See: https://www.msys2.org/docs/pkgconfig/
|
|
|
|
In this case they have identical values.
|
|
Both PREFIX and IMPORT_PERFIX have to be set to "" to get
liblzma.dll and liblzma.dll.a.
|
|
Using set(ENABLE_THREADS "posix") is confusing because it sets
a new normal variable and leaves the cache entry with the same
name unchanged. The intent wasn't to change the cache entry so
this switches to a different variable name.
|
|
It's mostly to change from "thread method" to "threading method".
|
|
This way typos are caught quickly and compounding error messages
are avoided (a single typo could cause more than one error).
This keeps using SEND_ERROR when the system is lacking a feature
(like threading library or sandboxing method). This way the whole
configuration log will be generated in case someone wishes to
report a problem upstream.
|
|
The option is enabled by default, but will only be visible to a user
listing cache variables or using a CMake GUI application if the
immintrin.h header file is found.
This mirrors our Autotools build --disable-clmul-crc functionality.
|

In XZ Utils context this doesn't matter much because
unaligned reads and writes aren't used in hot code
when TUKLIB_FAST_UNALIGNED_ACCESS isn't #defined.

The Ninja Generator for CMake cannot have a custom target and its
BYPRODUCTS have the same name. This has prevented Ninja builds on
Unix-like systems since the xz symlinks were introduced in

llvm-windres 17.0.0 has more accurate emulation of GNU windres, so
the hack for GNU windres must now be used with llvm-windres too.
LLVM 16.0.6 has the old behavior and there likely won't be more
16.x releases. So we can simply check for >= 17.0.0.
The workaround must not be used with Clang that is acting in
MSVC mode. This checks for the known environments that need
the workaround instead of using "NOT MSVC".

When the generic fast crc64 method is used, then we omit
lzma_crc64_table[][].
The C standards don't allow an empty translation unit which can be
avoided by declaring something, without exporting any symbols.
|
|
|
|
It made no practical difference in this case.

There was a use of AC_COMPILE_IFELSE that didn't use
AC_LANG_SOURCE and Autoconf warned about this. The omission
had been intentional but it turned out that this didn't do
what I thought it would.
Autoconf 2.71 manual gives an impression that AC_LANG_SOURCE
inserts all #defines that have been made with AC_DEFINE so
far (confdefs.h). The idea was that omitting AC_LANG_SOURCE
would mean that only the exact code included in the
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE call would be compiled.
With C programs this is not true: the #defines get added without
AC_LANG_SOURCE too. There seems to be no neat way to avoid this.
Thus, with the C language at least, adding AC_LANG_SOURCE makes
no other difference than silencing a warning from Autoconf. The
generated "configure" remains identical. (Docs of AC_LANG_CONFTEST
say that the #defines have been inserted since Autoconf 2.63b and
that AC_COMPILE_IFELSE uses AC_LANG_CONFTEST. So the behavior is
documented if one also reads the docs of macros that one isn't
calling directly.)
Any extra code, including #defines, can cause problems for
these two tests because these tests must use -Werror.
CC=clang CFLAGS=-Weverything is the most extreme example.
It enables -Wreserved-macro-identifier which warns about
It's possible to write a test file that passes -Weverything but
it becomes impossible when Autoconf inserts confdefs.h.
So this commit adds AC_LANG_SOURCE to silence Autoconf warnings.
A different solution is needed for -Werror tests.
|
|
The tests do not use any Gnulib replacements so they do not need to link
libgnu.a or have /lib in the include path.
|
|
The tests never included anything from /lib, so this was not needed.

Before this commit, the following writes "foo" to the
console and deletes the input file:
echo foo | xz > con_xz
xz --suffix=_xz --decompress con_xz
It cannot happen without --suffix because names like con.xz
are also special and so attempting to decompress con.xz
(or compress con to con.xz) will already fail when opening
the input file.
Similar thing is possible when compressing. The following
writes to "nul" and the input file "n" is deleted.
echo foo | xz > n
xz --suffix=ul n
Now xz checks if the destination is a special file before
continuing. DOS/DJGPP version had a check for this but
Windows (and OS/2) didn't.

There are several new policies. CMP0149 may affect the Windows SDK
version that CMake will choose by default. The new behavior is more
predictable, always choosing the latest SDK version by default.
The other new policies shouldn't affect this package.
|
|
|
|
The API headers have many attributes but these were left
as is for now.
|
|
For compatibility with C23's [[noreturn]], tuklib_attr_noreturn
must be at the beginning of declaration (before "extern" or
"static", and even before any GNU C's __attribute__).
This commit also moves all other function attributes to
the beginning of function declarations. "extern" is kept
at the beginning of a line so the attributes are listed on
separate lines before "extern" or "static".
|
|
xrealloc() is obviously incorrect, modern GCC docs even
mention realloc() as an example where this attribute
cannot be used.
liblzma's lzma_alloc() and lzma_alloc_zero() would be
correct uses most of the time but custom allocators
may use a memory pool or otherwise hold the pointer
so aliasing issues could happen in theory.
The xstrdup() case likely was correct but I removed it anyway.
Now there are no __malloc__ attributes left in the code.
The allocations aren't in hot paths so this should make
no practical difference.

If CMake was configured more than once, HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME and
HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC would not be set as compile definitions. The check
for librt being needed to provide HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME was also
simplified.
|
|
If HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME was defined, then HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC was always
added as a compile definition even if the check for it failed.
|
|
Now the two variations of the format strings are created with
a macro, and the whole detection code can be easily disabled
on platforms where thousand separator formatting is known to
not work (MSVC has no support, and on DJGPP 2.05 it can have
problems in some cases).
|
|
SSIZE_MAX isn't readily available on MSVC. Removing it means
that there is one thing less to worry when porting to MSVC.
|
|
This check was extended to test the code added to fix a failing assert
in 68bda971bb8b666a009331455fcedb4e18d837a4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The argument to vli_ceil4() should always guarantee the return value
is also a valid lzma_vli. Thus the highest three valid lzma_vli values
are invalid arguments. All uses of the function ensure this so the
assert is updated to match this.
|
|
This was not a security bug since there was no path to overflow
UINT64_MAX in lzma_index_append() or when it calls index_file_size().
The bug was discovered by a failing assert() in vli_ceil4() when called
from index_file_size() when unpadded_sum (the sum of the compressed size
of current Stream and the unpadded_size parameter) exceeds LZMA_VLI_MAX.
Previously, the unpadded_size parameter was checked to be not greater
than UNPADDED_SIZE_MAX, but no check was done once compressed_base was
added.
This could not have caused an integer overflow in index_file_size() when
called by lzma_index_append(). The calculation for file_size breaks down
into the sum of:
- Compressed base from all previous Streams
- 2 * LZMA_STREAM_HEADER_SIZE (size of the current Streams header and
footer)
- stream_padding (can be set by lzma_index_stream_padding())
- Compressed base from the current Stream
- Unpadded size (parameter to lzma_index_append())
The sum of everything except for Unpadded size must be less than
LZMA_VLI_MAX. This is guarenteed by overflow checks in the functions
that can set these values including lzma_index_stream_padding(),
lzma_index_append(), and lzma_index_cat(). The maximum value for
Unpadded size is enforced by lzma_index_append() to be less than or
equal UNPADDED_SIZE_MAX. Thus, the sum cannot exceed UINT64_MAX since
LZMA_VLI_MAX is half of UINT64_MAX.
Thanks to Joona Kannisto for reporting this.

The Autotools build allows win95 threads and --enable-small together now
if the compiler supports __attribute__((__constructor__)).
|
|
|
|
When the compiler supports __attribute__((__constructor__))
mythread_once() is never used, even with --enable-small. A configuration
with win95 threads and --enable-small will compile and be thread safe so
it can be allowed.
This isn't a very common configuration since MSVC does not support
__attribute__((__constructor__)), but MINGW32 and CLANG32 environments
for MSYS2 can use win95 threads and have
__attribute__((__constructor__)) support.
|
|
The "once_" variable was accidentally referred to as just "once". This
prevented building with Vista threads when
HAVE_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE_CONSTRUCTOR was not defined.

groff defaults to SGR escapes. Using -P-c passes -c to grotty

signal.h in WASI SDK doesn't currently provide sigprocmask()
or sigset_t. liblzma doesn't need them so this change makes
liblzma and xzdec build against WASI SDK. xz doesn't build yet
and the tests don't either as tuktest needs setjmp() which
isn't (yet?) implemented in WASI SDK.

The CMake build will try to create broken symlinks on Unix and Unix-like
platforms. Cygwin and MSYS2 are Unix-like, but may not be able to create
broken symlinks. The value of the CYGWIN or MSYS environment variables
determine if broken symlinks are valid.
The default for MSYS2 does not allow for broken symlinks, so the CMake
build has been broken for MSYS2 since commit
80a1a8bb838842a2be343bd88ad1462c21c5e2c9.

To workaround Automake lacking Windows resource compiler support, an
empty source file is compiled to overwrite the resource files for static
library builds. Translation units without an external declaration are
not allowed by the C standard and result in a warning when used with
-Wempty-translation-unit (Clang) or -pedantic (GCC).

The comment used "flag" when referring to decoder options. Just
referring to them as options is more clear and consistent.
|
|
Reword "options required" to "options read". The previous wording
may have suggested that the options listed were all required when
the filters are used for encoding or decoding. Now it should be
more clear that the options listed are the ones relevant for
encoding or decoding.

Maybe ICC always #defines _MSC_VER on Windows but now
it's very clear which code will get used.
|
|
|
|
In lzma_memcmplen(), the <intrin.h> header file is only included if
_MSC_VER and _M_X64 are both defined but _BitScanForward64() was
previously used if _M_X64 was defined. GCC for MSYS2 defines _M_X64 but
not _MSC_VER so _BitScanForward64() was used without including
<intrin.h>.
Now, lzma_memcmplen() will use __builtin_ctzll() for MSYS2 GCC builds as
expected.

The new Tests section describes basic information about the tests, how
to run them, and important details when cross compiling. We have had a

This adds an entry to "Other implementations of the .xz format" for

The Memory limit information section described three output

Fixed a bug where test_compress_* would all fail if arm64 or armthumb
filters were enabled for compression but arm was disabled. Since the
grep tests only checked for "define HAVE_ENCODER_ARM", this would match
on HAVE_ENCODER_ARM64 or HAVE_ENCODER_ARMTHUMB.
Now the config.h feature test requires " 1" at the end to prevent the
prefix problem. have_feature() was also updated for this even though
there were known current bugs affecting it. This is just in case future
features have a similar prefix problem.

Several tests were missing calls to lzma_index_end() to clean up the
lzma_index structs. The memory leaks were discovered by using

test_block_header was not properly freeing the filter options between
calls to lzma_block_header_decode(). The memory leaks were discovered by

This change only impacts the compiler warning since it was impossible
for the wait_abs struct in stream_encode_mt() to be used before it was
initialized since mythread_condtime_set() will always be called before
mythread_cond_timedwait().
Since the mythread.h code is different between the POSIX and
Windows versions, this warning was only present on Windows builds.
Thanks to Arthur S for reporting the warning and providing an initial
patch.

Boost iostream uses `find_package` in quiet mode and then again uses
`find_package` with required. This second call triggers a
`add_library cannot create imported target "LibLZMA::LibLZMA"
because another target with the same name already exists.`
This can simply be fixed by skipping the alias part on secondary
`find_package` runs.

Legacy Windows did not need to #include <intrin.h> to use the MSVC
intrinsics. Newer versions likely just issue a warning, but the MSVC
documentation says to include the header file for the intrinsics we use.
GCC and Clang can "pretend" to be MSVC on Windows, so extra checks are
needed in tuklib_integer.h to only include <intrin.h> when it will is
actually needed.
|
|
Clang has support for __builtin_clz(), but previously Clang would
fallback to either the MSVC intrinsic or the regular C code. This was
discovered due to a bug where a new version of Clang required the
<intrin.h> header file in order to use the MSVC intrinsics.
Thanks to Anton Kochkov for notifying us about the bug.

Now that the threading is configurable, the liblzma CMake package only
needs the threading library when using POSIX threads.
|
|
The thread method is now configurable for the CMake build. It matches
the Autotools build by allowing ON (pick the best threading method),
OFF (no threading), posix, win95, and vista. If both Windows and
posix threading are both available, then ON will choose Windows
threading. Windows threading will also not use:
target_link_libraries(liblzma Threads::Threads)
since on systems like MinGW-w64 it would link the posix threads
without purpose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It adds only one new policy related to FOLDERS which we don't use.
This makes it clear that the code is compatible with the policies
up to 3.26.
|
|
|
|
This allows users to change the features they build either in
CMakeCache.txt or by using a CMake GUI. The sources built for
liblzma are affected by this too, so only the necessary files
will be compiled.

It's obsolete in Autoconf >= 2.70 and just an alias for AC_PROG_CC
but Autoconf 2.69 requires AC_PROG_CC_C99 to get a C99 compiler.

This makes no functional difference in the generated configure
(at least with the Autotools versions I have installed) but this

This is broken in the releases 5.2.6 to 5.4.2. A workaround
for these releases is to pass EGREP='grep -E' as an argument
to configure in addition to --disable-threads.
The problem appeared when m4/ax_pthread.m4 was updated in
the commit 6629ed929cc7d45a11e385f357ab58ec15e7e4ad which
introduced the use of AC_EGREP_CPP. AC_EGREP_CPP calls
AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_EGREP]) to set the shell variable EGREP
but this was only executed if POSIX threads were enabled.
Libtool code also has AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_EGREP]) but Autoconf
omits it as AC_PROG_EGREP has already been required earlier.
Thus, if not using POSIX threads, the shell variable EGREP
would be undefined in the Libtool code in configure.
ax_pthread.m4 is fine. The bug was in configure.ac which called
AX_PTHREAD conditionally in an incorrect way. Using AS_CASE
ensures that all AC_REQUIREs get always run.
Thanks to Frank Busse for reporting the bug.

When the docs are installed, calling the directory "liblzma" is
confusing since multiple other files in the doc directory are for
liblzma. This should also make it more natural for distros when they
package the documentation.

This was left in by mistake since an early version of the ARM64 filter
used a different struct for its options.

The \mainpage command is used in the first block of comments in lzma.h.
This changes the previously nearly empty index.html to use the first
comment block in lzma.h for its contents.
lzma.h is no longer documented separately, but this is for the better
since lzma.h only defined a few macros that users do not need to use.
The individual API header files all have a disclaimer that they should
not be #included directly, so there should be no confusion on the fact
that lzma.h should be the only header used by applications.
Additionally, the note "See ../lzma.h for information about liblzma as
a whole." was removed since lzma.h is now the main page of the
generated HTML and does not have its own page anymore. So it would be
confusing in the HTML version and was only a "nice to have" when
browsing the source files.

Another command line option (--no-doxygen) was added to disable

This is a helper script to generate the Doxygen documentation. It can be
run in 'liblzma' or 'internal' mode by setting the first argument. It
will default to 'liblzma' mode and only generate documentation for the
liblzma API header files.
The helper script will be run during the custom mydist hook when we
create releases. This hook already alters the source directory, so its
fine to do it here too. This way, we can include the Doxygen generated
files in the distrubtion and when installing.
In 'liblzma' mode, the JavaScript is stripped from the .html files and
the .js files are removed. This avoids license hassle from jQuery and
other libraries that Doxygen 1.9.6 puts into jquery.js in minified form.
|
|
Added a install-data-local target to install the Doxygen documentation
only when it has been generated. In order to correctly remove the docs,
a corresponding uninstall-local target was added.
If the doxygen docs exist in the source tree, they will also be included
in the distribution now too.
|
|
Instead of having Doxyfile.in configured by Autoconf, the Doxyfile
can have the tags that need to be configured piped into the doxygen
command through stdin with the overrides after Doxyfile's contents.
Going forward, the documentation should be generated in two different
modes: liblzma or internal.
liblzma is useful for most users. It is the documentation for just
the liblzma API header files. This is the default.
internal is for people who want to understand how xz and liblzma work.
It might be useful for people who want to contribute to the project.

(This commit combines related commits from the master branch.)
If Capsicum support is missing from the kernel or xz is being run
in an emulator that lacks Capsicum suport, the syscalls will fail
and set errno to ENOSYS. Previously xz would display and error and
exit, making xz unusable. Now it will check for ENOSYS and run
without sandbox support. Other tools like ssh behave similarly.
Displaying a warning for missing Capsicum support was considered
but such extra output would quickly become annoying. It would also
break test_scripts.sh in "make check".
Also move cap_enter() to be the first step instead of the last one.
This matches the example in the cap_rights_limit(2) man page. With
the current code it shouldn't make any practical difference though.

Now, the LZMA_VERSION_MAJOR, LZMA_VERSION_MINOR, and LZMA_VERSION_PATCH
macros do not need to be on consecutive lines in version.h. They can be
separated by more whitespace, comments, or even other content, as long
as they appear in the proper order (major, minor, patch).
|
|
Specified parameter and return values for API functions and documented
a few more of the macros.
|

lzma_lzma_preset() does not guarentee that the lzma_options_lzma are
usable in an encoder even if it returns false (success). If liblzma
is built with default configurations, then the options will always be
usable. However if the match finders hc3, hc4, or bt4 are disabled, then
the options may not be usable depending on the preset level requested.
The documentation was updated to reflect this complexity, since this
behavior was unclear before.

Thanks to autoantwort for reporting the issue and suggesting
a different patch:
https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/pull/42
|

The static global variables can be disabled if encoders and decoders
are not built. If they are not disabled and -Werror is used, it will
cause an usused warning as an error.
|
|
The '\n' renders as a newline when the comments are converted to html
by Doxygen.
|
|
Shorten the description for lzma_raw_encoder_memusage() and
lzma_raw_decoder_memusage().
|
|
|
|
All functions now explicitly specify parameter and return values.
The notes and code annotations were moved before the parameter and
return value descriptions for consistency.
Also, the description above lzma_filter_encoder_is_supported() about
not being able to list available filters was removed since
lzma_str_list_filters() will do this.

In the C99 and C17 standards, section 6.5.6 paragraph 8 means that
adding 0 to a null pointer is undefined behavior. As of writing,
"clang -fsanitize=undefined" (Clang 15) diagnoses this. However,
I'm not aware of any compiler that would take advantage of this
when optimizing (Clang 15 included). It's good to avoid this anyway
since compilers might some day infer that pointer arithmetic implies
that the pointer is not NULL. That is, the following foo() would then
unconditionally return 0, even for foo(NULL, 0):
void bar(char *a, char *b);
int foo(char *a, size_t n)
{
bar(a, a + n);
return a == NULL;
}
In contrast to C, C++ explicitly allows null pointer + 0. So if
the above is compiled as C++ then there is no undefined behavior
in the foo(NULL, 0) call.
To me it seems that changing the C standard would be the sane
thing to do (just add one sentence) as it would ensure that a huge
amount of old code won't break in the future. Based on web searches
it seems that a large number of codebases (where null pointer + 0
occurs) are being fixed instead to be future-proof in case compilers
will some day optimize based on it (like making the above foo(NULL, 0)
return 0) which in the worst case will cause security bugs.
Some projects don't plan to change it. For example, gnulib and thus
many GNU tools currently require that null pointer + 0 is defined:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2021-11/msg00000.html
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Other-portability-assumptions.html
In XZ Utils null pointer + 0 issue should be fixed after this
commit. This adds a few if-statements and thus branches to avoid
null pointer + 0. These check for size > 0 instead of ptr != NULL
because this way bugs where size > 0 && ptr == NULL will likely
get caught quickly. None of them are in hot spots so it shouldn't
matter for performance.
A little less readable version would be replacing
ptr + offset
with
offset != 0 ? ptr + offset : ptr
or creating a macro for it:
#define my_ptr_add(ptr, offset) \
((offset) != 0 ? ((ptr) + (offset)) : (ptr))
Checking for offset != 0 instead of ptr != NULL allows GCC >= 8.1,
Clang >= 7, and Clang-based ICX to optimize it to the very same code
as ptr + offset. That is, it won't create a branch. So for hot code
this could be a good solution to avoid null pointer + 0. Unfortunately
other compilers like ICC 2021 or MSVC 19.33 (VS2022) will create a
branch from my_ptr_add().

On MicroBlaze, GCC 12 is broken in sense that
__has_attribute(__symver__) returns true but it still doesn't
support the __symver__ attribute even though the platform is ELF
and symbol versioning is supported if using the traditional
__asm__(".symver ...") method. Avoiding the traditional method is
good because it breaks LTO (-flto) builds with GCC.
See also: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101766
For now the only extra symbols in liblzma_linux.map are the
compatibility symbols with the patch that spread from RHEL/CentOS 7.
These require the use of __symver__ attribute or __asm__(".symver ...")
in the C code. Compatibility with the patch from CentOS 7 doesn't
seem valuable on MicroBlaze so use liblzma_generic.map on MicroBlaze
instead. It doesn't require anything special in the C code and thus
no LTO issues either.
An alternative would be to detect support for __symver__
attribute in configure.ac and CMakeLists.txt and fall back
to __asm__(".symver ...") but then LTO would be silently broken
on MicroBlaze. It sounds likely that MicroBlaze is a special
case so let's treat it as a such because that is simpler. If
a similar issue exists on some other platform too then hopefully
someone will report it and this can be reconsidered.
(This doesn't do the same fix in CMakeLists.txt. Perhaps it should
but perhaps CMake build of liblzma doesn't matter much on MicroBlaze.
The problem breaks the build so it's easy to notice and can be fixed
later.)
Thanks to Vincent Fazio for reporting the problem and proposing
a patch (in the end that solution wasn't used):

Use "member" to refer to struct members as that's the term used
by the C standard.
Use lzma_options_delta.dist and such in docs so that in Doxygen's
HTML output they will link to the doc of the struct member.
Clean up a few trailing white spaces too.

Also adjusted preset value => preset level.
|

It gives C4146 here since unary minus with unsigned integer
is still unsigned (which is the intention here). Doing it
with substraction makes it clearer and avoids the warning.
Thanks to Nathan Moinvaziri for reporting this.
