I should have always known this but I didn't. Here is an example
as a reminder to myself:
int mycopy(void *dest, void *src, size_t n)
{
memcpy(dest, src, n);
return dest == NULL;
}
In the example, a compiler may assume that dest != NULL because
passing NULL to memcpy() would be undefined behavior. Testing
with GCC 8.2.1, mycopy(NULL, NULL, 0) returns 1 with -O0 and -O1.
With -O2 the return value is 0 because the compiler infers that
dest cannot be NULL because it was already used with memcpy()
and thus the test for NULL gets optimized out.
In liblzma, if a null-pointer was passed to memcpy(), there were
no checks for NULL *after* the memcpy() call, so I cautiously
suspect that it shouldn't have caused bad behavior in practice,
but it's hard to be sure, and the problematic cases had to be
fixed anyway.
Thanks to Jeffrey Walton.

Only one definition was visible in a translation unit.
It avoided a few casts and temp variables but seems that
this hack doesn't work with link-time optimizations in compilers
as it's not C99/C11 compliant.

There is a tiny risk of causing breakage: If an application
assigns lzma_stream.allocator to a non-const pointer, such
code won't compile anymore. I don't know why anyone would do
such a thing though, so in practice this shouldn't cause trouble.
Thanks to Jan Kratochvil for the patch.

broken. API has changed a lot and it will still change a
little more here and there. The command line tool doesn't
have all the required changes to reflect the API changes, so
it's easy to get "internal error" or trigger assertions.

support for known uncompressed size in most places.
There are some miscellaneous changes here and there too.
The API of liblzma has got many changes and still some
more will be done soon. While most of the code has been
updated, some things are not fixed (the command line tool
will choke with invalid filter chain, if nothing else).
Subblock filter is somewhat broken for now. It will be
updated once the encoded format of the Subblock filter
has been decided.

it isn't required. Doing memzero() takes a lot of time
with large dictionaries, which could make it easier to
construct DoS attack to consume too much CPU time.
