2022-08-22Translations: Rebuild cs.po to avoid incorrect fuzzy strings.Lasse Collin1-270/+322
"make dist" updates the .po files and the fuzzy strings would result in multiple very wrong translations.
2022-08-22Translations: Add partial Danish translation.Lasse Collin2-0/+897
I made a few minor white space changes without getting them approved by the Danish translation team.
2022-08-22Translations: Add hu, zh_CN, and zh_TW.Lasse Collin4-0/+2907
I made a few white space changes to these without getting them approved by the translation teams. (I tried to contact the hu and zh_TW teams but didn't succeed. I didn't contact the zh_CN team.)

2022-08-22CMake: Add liblzma tests.Lasse Collin1-1/+52
Thanks to Jia Tan for the patch.
2022-08-19xz: Revise --info-memory output.Lasse Collin2-6/+27
The strings could be more descriptive but it's good to have some version of this committed now. --robot mode wasn't changed yet.
2022-08-19xz: Update the man page for threaded decompression and memlimits.Lasse Collin1-27/+121
This documents the changes made in commits 6c6da57ae2aa962aabde6892442227063d87e88c, cad299008cf73ec566f0662a9cf2b94f86a99659, and 898faa97287a756231c663a3ed5165672b417207. The --info-memory bit hasn't been finished yet even though it's already mentioned in this commit under --memlimit-mt-decompress and --threads.
2022-08-18Build: Include the CMake files in the distribution.Lasse Collin1-0/+2
This was supposed to be done in 2020 with 5.2.5 release already but it was noticed only today. 5.2.5 and 5.2.6 even mention experiemental CMake support in the NEWS entries. Thanks to Olivier B. for reporting the problem.
2022-08-18Windows: Fix broken liblzma.dll build with Visual Studio project files.Lasse Collin3-0/+18
The bug was introduced in 352ba2d69af2136bc814aa1df1a132559d445616 "Windows: Fix building of resource files when config.h isn't used." That commit fixed liblzma.dll build with CMake while keeping it working with Autotools on Windows but the VS project files were forgotten. I haven't tested these changes. Thanks to Olivier B. for reporting the bug and for the initial patch.
2022-08-18liblzma: Threaded decoder: Improve LZMA_FAIL_FAST when LZMA_FINISH is used.Lasse Collin2-0/+48
It will now return LZMA_DATA_ERROR (not LZMA_OK or LZMA_BUF_ERROR) if LZMA_FINISH is used and there isn't enough input to finish decoding the Block Header or the Block. The use of LZMA_DATA_ERROR is simpler and the less risky than LZMA_BUF_ERROR but this might be changed before 5.4.0.

This makes ChangeLog smaller.
2022-07-25Translations: Change the copyright comment string to use with po4a.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
This affects the second line in po4a/xz-man.pot. The man pages of xzdiff, xzgrep, and xzmore are from GNU gzip and under GNU GPLv2+ while the rest of the man pages are in the public domain.
2022-07-25liblzma: Refactor lzma_mf_is_supported() to use a switch-statement.Jia Tan1-18/+14
2022-07-25Build: Don't allow empty LIST in --enable-match-finders=LIST.Jia Tan1-0/+4
It's enforced only when a match finder is needed, that is, when LZMA1 or LZMA2 encoder is enabled.
2022-07-24xz: Update the man page that change to --keep will be in 5.2.6.Lasse Collin1-2/+2

2022-07-19xzgrep man page: Document exit statuses.Lasse Collin1-1/+14
2022-07-19xzgrep: Improve error handling, especially signals.Lasse Collin1-19/+53
xzgrep wouldn't exit on SIGPIPE or SIGQUIT when it clearly should have. It's quite possible that it's not perfect still but at least it's much better. If multiple exit statuses compete, now it tries to pick the largest of value. Some comments were added. The exit status handling of signals is still broken if the shell uses values larger than 255 in $? to indicate that a process died due to a signal ***and*** their "exit" command doesn't take this into account. This seems to work well with the ksh and yash versions I tried. However, there is a report in gzip/zgrep that OpenSolaris 5.11 (not 5.10) has a problem with "exit" truncating the argument to 8 bits: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=22900#25 Such a bug would break xzgrep but I didn't add a workaround at least for now. 5.11 is old and I don't know if the problem exists in modern descendants, or if the problem exists in other ksh implementations in use.
2022-07-19xzgrep: Make the fix for ZDI-CAN-16587 more robust.Lasse Collin1-1/+4
I don't know if this can make a difference in the real world but it looked kind of suspicious (what happens with sed implementations that cannot process very long lines?). At least this commit shouldn't make it worse.
2022-07-18xzgrep: Use grep -H --label when available (GNU, *BSDs).Lasse Collin1-0/+21
It avoids the use of sed for prefixing filenames to output lines. Using sed for that is slower and prone to security bugs so now the sed method is only used as a fallback. This also fixes an actual bug: When grepping a binary file, GNU grep nowadays prints its diagnostics to stderr instead of stdout and thus the sed-method for prefixing the filename doesn't work. So with this commit grepping binary files gives reasonable output with GNU grep now. This was inspired by zgrep but the implementation is different.
2022-07-18xzgrep: Use -e to specify the pattern to grep.Lasse Collin1-8/+4
Now we don't need the separate test for adding the -q option as it can be added directly in the two places where it's needed.
2022-07-18Scripts: Use printf instead of echo in a few places.Lasse Collin4-11/+11
It's a good habbit as echo has some portability corner cases when the string contents can be anything.
2022-07-17xzgrep: Add more LC_ALL=C to avoid bugs with multibyte characters.Lasse Collin1-6/+8
Also replace one use of expr with printf. The rationale for LC_ALL=C was already mentioned in 69d1b3fc29677af8ade8dc15dba83f0589cb63d6 that fixed a security issue. However, unrelated uses weren't changed in that commit yet. POSIX says that with sed and such tools one should use LC_ALL=C to ensure predictable behavior when strings contain byte sequences that aren't valid multibyte characters in the current locale. See under "Application usage" in here: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/sed.html With GNU sed invalid multibyte strings would work without this; it's documented in its Texinfo manual. Some other implementations aren't so forgiving.
2022-07-17xzgrep: Fix parsing of certain options.Lasse Collin1-2/+17
Fix handling of "xzgrep -25 foo" (in GNU grep "grep -25 foo" is an alias for "grep -C25 foo"). xzgrep would treat "foo" as filename instead of as a pattern. This bug was fixed in zgrep in gzip in 2012. Add -E, -F, -G, and -P to the "no argument required" list. Add -X to "argument required" list. It is an intentionally-undocumented GNU grep option so this isn't an important option for xzgrep but it seems that other grep implementations (well, those that I checked) don't support -X so I hope this change is an improvement still. grep -d (grep --directories=ACTION) requires an argument. In contrast to zgrep, I kept -d in the "no argument required" list because it's not supported in xzgrep (or zgrep). This way "xzgrep -d" gives an error about option being unsupported instead of telling that it requires an argument. Both zgrep and xzgrep tell that it's unsupported if an argument is specified. Add comments.

2022-07-13Update THANKS.Lasse Collin1-0/+1
2022-07-13liblzma: Add optional autodetection of LZMA end marker.Lasse Collin7-39/+95
Turns out that this is needed for .lzma files as the spec in LZMA SDK says that end marker may be present even if the size is stored in the header. Such files are rare but exist in the real world. The code in liblzma is so old that the spec didn't exist in LZMA SDK back then and I had understood that such files weren't possible (the lzma tool in LZMA SDK didn't create such files). This modifies the internal API so that LZMA decoder can be told if EOPM is allowed even when the uncompressed size is known. It's allowed with .lzma and not with other uses. Thanks to Karl Beldan for reporting the problem.
2022-07-12xz: Document the special memlimit case of 2000 MiB on MIPS32.Lasse Collin1-2/+6

2022-07-10Created script to generate code coverage reports.Jia Tan2-0/+83
The script uses lcov and genhtml after running the tests to show the code coverage statistics. The script will create a coverage directory where it is run. It can be run both in and out of the source directory.

2022-06-16Tests: Use char[][24] array for enum_strings_lzma_ret.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
Array of pointers to short strings is a bit pointless here and now it's fully const.

2022-06-14Tests: test_vli: Remove an invalid test-assertion.Lasse Collin1-2/+0
lzma_vli is unsigned so trying a signed value results in a compiler warning from -Wsign-conversion. (lzma_vli)-1 equals to LZMA_VLI_UNKNOWN anyway which is the next assertion.

2022-06-14Tests: Use good-1-empty-bcj-lzma2.xz in test_bcj_exact_size.Lasse Collin1-12/+7
It's much nicer this way so that the test data isn't a hardcoded table inside the C file.

2022-06-14Tests: tuktest.h: Move a printf from a macro to a helper function.Lasse Collin1-8/+18
2022-06-14Tests: Add test file good-1-empty-bcj-lzma2.xz.Lasse Collin2-0/+5
This is from test_bcj_exact_size.c. It's good to have it as a standalone file.
2022-06-10Tests: Created tests for hardware functions.Jia Tan3-0/+48
Created tests for all API functions exported in src/liblzma/api/lzma/hardware.h. The tests are fairly trivial but are helpful because they will inform users if their machines cannot support these functions. They also improve the code coverage metrics.
2022-06-02Tests: Convert test_check to tuktest.Lasse Collin1-34/+33
Thanks to Jia Tan for help with all the tests.
2022-06-02Tests: Convert test_block_header to tuktest.Lasse Collin1-37/+52
2022-06-02Tests: Convert test_bcj_exact_size to tuktest.Lasse Collin1-34/+41
The compress() and decompress() functions were merged because the later depends on the former so they need to be a single test case.
2022-06-02Tests: Include tuktest.h in tests.h.Lasse Collin1-24/+23
This breaks -Werror because none of the tests so far use tuktest.h and thus there are warnings about unused variables and functions.
2022-06-02Tests: Add tuktest.h mini-test-framework.Lasse Collin2-0/+753
2022-05-23Build: Enable Automake's parallel test harness.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
It has been the default for quite some time already and the old serial harness isn't discouraged. The downside is that with parallel tests one cannot print progress info or other diagnostics to the terminal; all output from the tests will be in the log files only. But now that the compression tests are separated the parallel tests will speed things up.
2022-05-23Tests: Split test_compress.sh into separate test unit for each file.Lasse Collin7-40/+77
test_compress.sh now takes one command line argument: a filename to be tested. If it begins with "compress_generated_" the file will be created with create_compress_files. This will allow parallel execution of the slow tests.
2022-05-23Test: Make create_compress_files.c a little more flexible.Lasse Collin1-10/+15
If a command line argument is given, then only the test file of that type is created. It's quite dumb in sense that unknown names don't give an error but it's good enough here. Also use EXIT_FAILURE instead of 1 as exit status for errors.
2022-05-23Tests: Remove unneeded commented lines from test_compress.sh.Lasse Collin1-13/+0
2022-05-23Tests: Remove progress indicator from test_compress.sh.Lasse Collin1-9/+0
It will be useless with Automake's parallel tests.
2022-05-23liblzma: Silence a warning.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
The actual initialization is done via mythread_sync and seems that GCC doesn't necessarily see that it gets initialized there.
2022-04-14xz: Fix build with --disable-threads.Lasse Collin1-0/+4
2022-04-14xz: Change the cap of the default -T0 memlimit for 32-bit xz.Lasse Collin1-1/+3
The SIZE_MAX / 3 was 1365 MiB. 1400 MiB gives little more room and it looks like a round (artificial) number in --info-memory once --info-memory is made to display it. Also, using #if avoids useless code on 64-bit builds.
2022-04-14xz: Add a default soft memory usage limit for --threads=0.Lasse Collin3-11/+82
This is a soft limit in sense that it only affects the number of threads. It never makes xz fail and it never makes xz change settings that would affect the compressed output. The idea is to make -T0 have more reasonable behavior when the system has very many cores or when a memory-hungry compression options are used. This also helps with 32-bit xz, preventing it from running out of address space. The downside of this commit is that now the number of threads might become too low compared to what the user expected. I hope this to be an acceptable compromise as the old behavior has been a source of well-argued complaints for a long time.
2022-04-14xz: Make -T0 use multithreaded mode on single-core systems.Lasse Collin3-9/+27
The main problem withi the old behavior is that the compressed output is different on single-core systems vs. multicore systems. This commit fixes it by making -T0 one thread in multithreaded mode on single-core systems. The downside of this is that it uses more memory. However, if --memlimit-compress is used, xz can (thanks to the previous commit) drop to the single-threaded mode still.
2022-04-14xz: Changes to --memlimit-compress and --no-adjust.Lasse Collin1-20/+43
In single-threaded mode, --memlimit-compress can make xz scale down the LZMA2 dictionary size to meet the memory usage limit. This obviously affects the compressed output. However, if xz was in threaded mode, --memlimit-compress could make xz reduce the number of threads but it wouldn't make xz switch from multithreaded mode to single-threaded mode or scale down the LZMA2 dictionary size. This seemed illogical and there was even a "FIXME?" about it. Now --memlimit-compress can make xz switch to single-threaded mode if one thread in multithreaded mode uses too much memory. If memory usage is still too high, then the LZMA2 dictionary size can be scaled down too. The option --no-adjust was also changed so that it no longer prevents xz from scaling down the number of threads as that doesn't affect compressed output (only performance). After this commit --no-adjust only prevents adjustments that affect compressed output, that is, with --no-adjust xz won't switch from multithreaded mode to single-threaded mode and won't scale down the LZMA2 dictionary size. The man page wasn't updated yet.
2022-04-12xz: Add --memlimit-mt-decompress along with a default limit value.Lasse Collin5-42/+97
--memlimit-mt-decompress allows specifying the limit for multithreaded decompression. This matches memlimit_threading in liblzma. This limit can only affect the number of threads being used; it will never prevent xz from decompressing a file. The old --memlimit-decompress option is still used at the same time. If the value of --memlimit-decompress (the default value or one specified by the user) is less than the value of --memlimit-mt-decompress , then --memlimit-mt-decompress is reduced to match --memlimit-decompress. Man page wasn't updated yet.
2022-04-06liblzma: Threaded decoder: Improve setting of pending_error.Lasse Collin1-16/+35
It doesn't need to be done conditionally. The comments try to explain it.
2022-04-06liblzma: Add a new flag LZMA_FAIL_FAST for threaded decoder.Lasse Collin3-26/+56
In most cases if the input file is corrupt the application won't care about the uncompressed content at all. With this new flag the threaded decoder will return an error as soon as any thread has detected an error; it won't wait to copy out the data before the location of the error. I don't plan to use this in xz to keep the behavior consistent between single-threaded and multi-threaded modes.
2022-04-05liblzma: Threaded decoder: Always wait for output if LZMA_FINISH is used.Lasse Collin1-2/+24
This makes the behavior consistent with the single-threaded decoder when handling truncated .xz files. Thanks to Jia Tan for finding this issue.
2022-04-02liblzma: Threaded decoder: Support zpipe.c-style decoding loop.Lasse Collin1-10/+67
This makes it possible to call lzma_code() in a loop that only reads new input when lzma_code() didn't fill the output buffer completely. That isn't the calling style suggested by the liblzma example program 02_decompress.c so perhaps the usefulness of this feature is limited. Also, it is possible to write such a loop so that it works with the single-threaded decoder but not with the threaded decoder even after this commit, or so that it works only if lzma_mt.timeout = 0. The zlib tutorial <https://zlib.net/zlib_how.html> is a well-known example of a loop where more input is read only when output isn't full. Porting this as is to liblzma would work with the single-threaded decoder (if LZMA_CONCATENATED isn't used) but it wouldn't work with threaded decoder even after this commit because the loop assumes that no more output is possible when it cannot read more input ("if (strm.avail_in == 0) break;"). This cannot be fixed at liblzma side; the loop has to be modified at least a little. I'm adding this in any case because the actual code is simple and short and should have no harmful side-effects in other situations.
2022-03-31Update THANKS.Lasse Collin1-0/+1
2022-03-29xzgrep: Fix escaping of malicious filenames (ZDI-CAN-16587).Lasse Collin1-8/+12
Malicious filenames can make xzgrep to write to arbitrary files or (with a GNU sed extension) lead to arbitrary code execution. xzgrep from XZ Utils versions up to and including 5.2.5 are affected. 5.3.1alpha and 5.3.2alpha are affected as well. This patch works for all of them. This bug was inherited from gzip's zgrep. gzip 1.12 includes a fix for zgrep. The issue with the old sed script is that with multiple newlines, the N-command will read the second line of input, then the s-commands will be skipped because it's not the end of the file yet, then a new sed cycle starts and the pattern space is printed and emptied. So only the last line or two get escaped. One way to fix this would be to read all lines into the pattern space first. However, the included fix is even simpler: All lines except the last line get a backslash appended at the end. To ensure that shell command substitution doesn't eat a possible trailing newline, a colon is appended to the filename before escaping. The colon is later used to separate the filename from the grep output so it is fine to add it here instead of a few lines later. The old code also wasn't POSIX compliant as it used \n in the replacement section of the s-command. Using \<newline> is the POSIX compatible method. LC_ALL=C was added to the two critical sed commands. POSIX sed manual recommends it when using sed to manipulate pathnames because in other locales invalid multibyte sequences might cause issues with some sed implementations. In case of GNU sed, these particular sed scripts wouldn't have such problems but some other scripts could have, see: info '(sed)Locale Considerations' This vulnerability was discovered by: cleemy desu wayo working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative Thanks to Jim Meyering and Paul Eggert discussing the different ways to fix this and for coordinating the patch release schedule with gzip.
2022-03-26liblzma: Fix a deadlock in threaded decoder.Lasse Collin1-19/+52
If a worker thread has consumed all input so far and it's waiting on thr->cond and then the main thread enables partial update for that thread, the code used to deadlock. This commit allows one dummy decoding pass to occur in this situation which then also does the partial update. As part of the fix, this moves thr->progress_* updates to avoid the second thr->mutex locking. Thanks to Jia Tan for finding, debugging, and reporting the bug.
2022-03-23Update THANKS.Lasse Collin1-0/+1
2022-03-23liblzma: Threaded decoder: Don't stop threads on LZMA_TIMED_OUT.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
LZMA_TIMED_OUT is not an error and thus stopping threads on LZMA_TIMED_OUT breaks the decoder badly. Thanks to Jia Tan for finding the bug and for the patch.
2022-03-07xz: Add initial support for threaded decompression.Lasse Collin1-1/+35
If threading support is enabled at build time, this will use lzma_stream_decoder_mt() even for single-threaded mode. With memlimit_threading=0 the behavior should be identical. This needs some work like adding --memlimit-threading=LIMIT. The original patch from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior included a method to get currently available RAM on Linux. It might be one way to go but as it is Linux-only, the available-RAM approach needs work for portability or using a fallback method on other OSes. The man page wasn't updated yet.
2022-03-07liblzma: Add threaded .xz decompressor.Lasse Collin5-7/+1907
I realize that this is about a decade late. Big thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior for the original patch. I made a bunch of smaller changes but after a while quite a few things got rewritten. So any bugs in the commit were created by me.
2022-03-06liblzma: Fix docs: lzma_block_decoder() cannot return LZMA_UNSUPPORTED_CHECK.Lasse Collin1-3/+0
If Check is unsupported, it will be silently ignored. It's the caller's job to handle it.
2022-03-06liblzma: Add new output queue (lzma_outq) features.Lasse Collin2-8/+79
Add lzma_outq_clear_cache2() which may leave one buffer allocated in the cache. Add lzma_outq_outbuf_memusage() to get the memory needed for a single lzma_outbuf. This is now used internally in outqueue.c too. Track both the total amount of memory allocated and the amount of memory that is in active use (not in cache). In lzma_outbuf, allow storing the current input position that matches the current output position. This way the main thread can notice when no more output is possible without first providing more input. Allow specifying return code for lzma_outq_read() in a finished lzma_outbuf.
2022-03-06liblzma: Index hash: Change return value type of hash_append() to void.Lasse Collin1-6/+5
2022-02-22liblzma: Minor addition to lzma_vli_size() API doc.Lasse Collin1-0/+2
Thanks to Jia Tan.
2022-02-22liblzma: Check the return value of lzma_index_append() in threaded encoder.Lasse Collin1-2/+5
If lzma_index_append() failed (most likely memory allocation failure) it could have gone unnoticed and the resulting .xz file would have an incorrect Index. Decompressing such a file would produce the correct uncompressed data but then an error would occur when verifying the Index field.

2022-02-22liblzma: Use non-executable stack on FreeBSD as on LinuxEd Maste2-4/+4
2022-02-20liblzma: Make Block decoder catch certain types of errors better.Lasse Collin1-25/+54
Now it limits the input and output buffer sizes that are passed to a raw decoder. This way there's no need to check if the sizes can grow too big or overflow when updating Compressed Size and Uncompressed Size counts. This also means that a corrupt file cannot cause the raw decoder to process useless extra input or output that would exceed the size info in Block Header (and thus cause LZMA_DATA_ERROR anyway). More importantly, now the size information is verified more carefully in case raw decoder returns LZMA_OK. This doesn't really matter with the current single-threaded .xz decoder as the errors would be detected slightly later anyway. But this helps avoiding corner cases in the upcoming threaded decompressor, and it might help other Block decoder uses outside liblzma too. The test files bad-1-lzma2-{9,10,11}.xz test these conditions. With the single-threaded .xz decoder the only difference is that LZMA_DATA_ERROR is detected in a difference place now.

2021-04-11Reduce maximum possible memory limit on MIPS32Ivan A. Melnikov1-0/+6
Due to architectural limitations, address space available to a single userspace process on MIPS32 is limited to 2 GiB, not 4, even on systems that have more physical RAM -- e.g. 64-bit systems with 32-bit userspace, or systems that use XPA (an extension similar to x86's PAE). So, for MIPS32, we have to impose stronger memory limits. I've chosen 2000MiB to give the process some headroom.

2021-01-30CMake: Try to improve compatibility with the FindLibLZMA module.Lasse Collin1-8/+13
The naming conflict with FindLibLZMA module gets worse. Not avoiding it in the first place was stupid. Normally find_package(LibLZMA) will use the module and find_package(liblzma 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG) will use the config file even with a case insensitive file system. However, if CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_PREFER_CONFIG is TRUE and the file system is case insensitive, find_package(LibLZMA) will find our liblzma config file instead of using FindLibLZMA module. One big problem with this is that FindLibLZMA uses LibLZMA::LibLZMA and we use liblzma::liblzma as the target name. With target names CMake happens to be case sensitive. To workaround this, this commit adds add_library(LibLZMA::LibLZMA ALIAS liblzma::liblzma) to the config file. Then both spellings work. To make the behavior consistent between case sensitive and insensitive file systems, the config and related files are renamed from liblzmaConfig.cmake to liblzma-config.cmake style. With this style CMake looks for lowercase version of the package name so find_package(LiBLzmA 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG) will work to find our config file. There are other differences between our config file and FindLibLZMA so it's still possible that things break for reasons other than the spelling of the target name. Hopefully those situations aren't too common. When the config file is available, it should always give as good or better results as FindLibLZMA so this commit doesn't affect the recommendation to use find_package(liblzma 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG) which explicitly avoids FindLibLZMA. Thanks to Markus Rickert.

2021-01-14liblzma: Add EROFS LZMA encoder and decoder.Lasse Collin5-0/+367
Right now this is just a planned extra-compact format for use in the EROFS file system in Linux. At this point it's possible that the format will either change or be abandoned and removed completely. The special thing about the encoder is that it uses the output-size-limited encoding added in the previous commit. EROFS uses fixed-sized blocks (e.g. 4 KiB) to hold compressed data so the compressors must be able to create valid streams that fill the given block size.
2021-01-14liblzma: Add rough support for output-size-limited encoding in LZMA1.Lasse Collin6-35/+246
With this it is possible to encode LZMA1 data without EOPM so that the encoder will encode as much input as it can without exceeding the specified output size limit. The resulting LZMA1 stream will be a normal LZMA1 stream without EOPM. The actual uncompressed size will be available to the caller via the uncomp_size pointer. One missing thing is that the LZMA layer doesn't inform the LZ layer when the encoding is finished and thus the LZ may read more input when it won't be used. However, this doesn't matter if encoding is done with a single call (which is the planned use case for now). For proper multi-call encoding this should be improved. This commit only adds the functionality for internal use. Nothing uses it yet.

2021-01-11xz: Make --keep accept symlinks, hardlinks, and setuid/setgid/sticky.Lasse Collin2-5/+20
Previously this required using --force but that has other effects too which might be undesirable. Changing the behavior of --keep has a small risk of breaking existing scripts but since this is a fairly special corner case I expect the likehood of breakage to be low enough. I think the new behavior is more logical. The only reason for the old behavior was to be consistent with gzip and bzip2. Thanks to Vincent Lefevre and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
2021-01-11Scripts: Fix exit status of xzgrep.Lasse Collin1-7/+13
Omit the -q option from xz, gzip, and bzip2. With xz this shouldn't matter. With gzip it's important because -q makes gzip replace SIGPIPE with exit status 2. With bzip2 it's important because with -q bzip2 is completely silent if input is corrupt while other decompressors still give an error message. Avoiding exit status 2 from gzip is important because bzip2 uses exit status 2 to indicate corrupt input. Before this commit xzgrep didn't recognize corrupt .bz2 files because xzgrep was treating exit status 2 as SIGPIPE for gzip compatibility. zstd still needs -q because otherwise it is noisy in normal operation. The code to detect real SIGPIPE didn't check if the exit status was due to a signal (>= 128) and so could ignore some other exit status too.
2021-01-11Scripts: Fix exit status of xzdiff/xzcmp.Lasse Collin1-14/+21
This is a minor fix since this affects only the situation when the files differ and the exit status is something else than 0. In such case there could be SIGPIPE from a decompression tool and that would result in exit status of 2 from xzdiff/xzcmp while the correct behavior would be to return 1 or whatever else diff or cmp may have returned. This commit omits the -q option from xz/gzip/bzip2/lzop arguments. I'm not sure why the -q was used in the first place, perhaps it hides warnings in some situation that I cannot see at the moment. Hopefully the removal won't introduce a new bug. With gzip the -q option was harmful because it made gzip return 2 instead of >= 128 with SIGPIPE. Ignoring exit status 2 (warning from gzip) isn't practical because bzip2 uses exit status 2 to indicate corrupt input file. It's better if SIGPIPE results in exit status >= 128. With bzip2 the removal of -q seems to be good because with -q it prints nothing if input is corrupt. The other tools aren't silent in this situation even with -q. On the other hand, if zstd support is added, it will need -q since otherwise it's noisy in normal situations. Thanks to Étienne Mollier and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
2021-01-09liblzma: Make lzma_outq usable for threaded decompression too.Lasse Collin3-157/+301
Before this commit all output queue buffers were allocated as a single big allocation. Now each buffer is allocated separately when needed. Used buffers are cached to avoid reallocation overhead but the cache will keep only one buffer size at a time. This should make things work OK in the decompression where most of the time the buffer sizes will be the same but with some less common files the buffer sizes may vary. While this should work fine, it's still a bit preliminary and may even get reverted if it turns out to be useless for decompression.

2020-02-25Build: Fix bugs in the CMake files.Lasse Collin7-78/+85
Seems that the phrase "add more quotes" from sh/bash scripting applies to CMake as well. E.g. passing an unquoted list ${FOO} to a function that expects one argument results in only the first element of the list being passed as an argument and the rest get ignored. Adding quotes helps ("${FOO}"). list(INSERT ...) is weird. Inserting an empty string to an empty variable results in empty list, but inserting it to a non-empty variable does insert an empty element to the list. Since INSERT requires at least one element, "${CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT}" needs to be quoted in CMakeLists.txt. It might result in an empty element in the list. It seems to not matter as empty elements consistently get ignored in that variable. In fact, calling cmake_check_push_state() and cmake_check_pop_state() will strip the empty elements from CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES! In addition to quoting fixes, this fixes checks for the cache variables in tuklib_cpucores.cmake and tuklib_physmem.cmake. Thanks to Martin Matuška for testing and reporting the problems. These fixes aren't tested yet but hopefully they soon will be.

2020-02-07Build: Add support for translated man pages using po4a.Lasse Collin8-45/+197
The dependency on po4a is optional. It's never required to install the translated man pages when xz is built from a release tarball. If po4a is missing when building from xz.git, the translated man pages won't be generated but otherwise the build will work normally. The translations are only updated automatically by autogen.sh and by "make mydist". This makes it easy to keep po4a as an optional dependency and ensures that I won't forget to put updated translations to a release tarball. The translated man pages aren't installed if --disable-nls is used. The installation of translated man pages abuses Automake internals by calling "install-man" with redefined dist_man_MANS and man_MANS. This makes the hairy script code slightly less hairy. If it breaks some day, this code needs to be fixed; don't blame Automake developers. Also, this adds more quotes to the existing shell script code in the Makefile.am "-hook"s.

2020-02-05xz: Make it a fatal error if enabling the sandbox fails.Lasse Collin1-1/+1
Perhaps it's too drastic but on the other hand it will let me learn about possible problems if people report the errors. This won't be backported to the v5.2 branch.

2020-02-05Build: Workaround a POSIX shell detection problem on Solaris.Lasse Collin1-0/+10
I don't know if the problem is in gnulib's gl_POSIX_SHELL macro or if xzgrep does something that isn't in POSIX. The workaround adds a special case for Solaris: if /usr/xpg4/bin/sh exists and gl_cv_posix_shell wasn't overriden on the configure command line, use that shell for xzgrep and other scripts. That shell is known to work and exists on most Solaris systems.

2020-02-01xz: Limit --memlimit-compress to at most 4020 MiB for 32-bit xz.Lasse Collin2-2/+51
See the code comment for reasoning. It's far from perfect but hopefully good enough for certain cases while hopefully doing nothing bad in other situations. At presets -5 ... -9, 4020 MiB vs. 4096 MiB makes no difference on how xz scales down the number of threads. The limit has to be a few MiB below 4096 MiB because otherwise things like "xz --lzma2=dict=500MiB" won't scale down the dict size enough and xz cannot allocate enough memory. With "ulimit -v $((4096 * 1024))" on x86-64, the limit in xz had to be no more than 4085 MiB. Some safety margin is good though. This is hack but it should be useful when running 32-bit xz on a 64-bit kernel that gives full 4 GiB address space to xz. Hopefully this is enough to solve this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1196786 FreeBSD has a patch that limits the result in tuklib_physmem() to SIZE_MAX on 32-bit systems. While I think it's not the way to do it, the results on --memlimit-compress have been good. This commit should achieve practically identical results for compression while leaving decompression and tuklib_physmem() and thus lzma_physmem() unaffected.
2020-01-26xz: Set the --flush-timeout deadline when the first input byte arrives.Lasse Collin3-7/+6
xz --flush-timeout=2000, old version: 1. xz is started. The next flush will happen after two seconds. 2. No input for one second. 3. A burst of a few kilobytes of input. 4. No input for one second. 5. Two seconds have passed and flushing starts. The first second counted towards the flush-timeout even though there was no pending data. This can cause flushing to occur more often than needed. xz --flush-timeout=2000, after this commit: 1. xz is started. 2. No input for one second. 3. A burst of a few kilobytes of input. The next flush will happen after two seconds counted from the time when the first bytes of the burst were read. 4. No input for one second. 5. No input for another second. 6. Two seconds have passed and flushing starts.
