Translations and doc/xz-file-format.txt and doc/lzma-file-format.txt
were not touched.
COPYING.0BSD was added.
|
|
The new Filter ID is 0x0B.
Thanks to Chien Wong <m@xv97.com> for the initial version of the Filter,
the xz CLI updates, and the Autotools build system modifications.
Thanks to Igor Pavlov for his many contributions to the design of
the filter.

Now it reads from argv[] instead of args->arg_names.

The following command caused a segmentation fault:
xz -Fraw --lzma1 --files=foo
when foo was a valid file. The usage of --files or --files0 was not
being checked when compressing or decompressing in raw mode without a
suffix. The suffix checking code was meant to validate that all files
to be processed are "-" (if not writing to standard out), meaning the
data is only coming from standard in. In this case, there were no file
names to check since --files and --files0 store their file name in a
different place.
Later code assumed the suffix was set and caused a segmentation fault.
Now, the above command results in an error.
|
|
The previous version set opt_stdout, but this caused an issue with
copying an input file to standard out when decompressing an unknown file
type. The following needs to result in an error:
echo foo | xz -df
since -c, --stdout is not used. This fixes the previous error by not
setting opt_stdout.
|
|
This fixes a bug introduced in cc5aa9ab138beeecaee5a1e81197591893ee9ca0
when the suffix check was initially moved. This caused a situation that
previously worked:
echo foo | xz -Fraw --lzma1 | wc -c
to fail because the old code knew that this would write to standard out
so a suffix was not needed.
|
|
If the -c, --stdout argument is not used, then we can still detect when
the data will be written to standard out if all of the provided
filenames are "-" (denoting standard in) or if no filenames are
provided.

The --filters-help can be used to help create filter chains with the
--filters and --filtersX options. The message in --long-help is too
short to fully explain the syntax to construct complex filter chains.
In --robot mode, xz will only print the output from liblzma function
lzma_str_list_filters.
|
|
--block-list is only supported with compression in xz format. This avoids
silently ignoring when --block-list is unused.
|
|
The new command line options are meant to be combined with --block-list.
They work as an optional extension to --block-list to specify a custom
filter chain for each block listed. The new options allow the creation
of up to 9 reusable filter chains. For instance:
xz --block-list=1:10MiB,3:5MiB,,2:5MiB,1:0 --filters1=delta--lzma2 \
--filters2=x86--lzma2 --filters3=arm64--lzma2
Will create the following blocks:
1. A block of size 10 MiB with filter chain delta, lzma2.
2. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain arm64, lzma2.
3. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain arm64, lzma2.
4. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain x86, lzma2.
5. A block containing the rest of the file contents with filter chain
delta, lzma2.
|
|
The --filters option uses the new lzma_str_to_filters() function
to convert a string into a full filter chain. Using this option
will reset all previous filters set by --preset, --[filter], or
--filters.
|
|
Also edit style to match the existing coding style in the project.
|
|
|
|
Calling coder_set_compression_settings() in list mode with verbose mode
on caused the filter chain and memory requirements to print. This was
unnecessary since the command results in an error and not consistent
with other formats like lzma and alone.
|
|

The code that parses --memlimit options and --block-list modified
the argv[] when parsing the option string from optarg. This was
visible in "ps auxf" and such and could be confusing. I didn't
understand it back in the day when I wrote that code. Now a copy
is allocated when modifiable strings are needed.
|
|
|
|
This is incompatible with the previous version.
This has space/tab fixes in filter_*.c and bcj.h too.

If configured with --disable-lzip-decoder then --long-help will
still list `lzip' in --format but I left it like that since
due to translations it would be messy to have two help strings.
Features are disabled only in special situations so wrong help
in such a situation shouldn't matter much.
Thanks to Michał Górny for the original patch.

It will be renamed to --arm64 once it is stable.
Man page or --long-help weren't updated yet.

--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.

The patch is quite long but it's mostly about adding new #ifdefs
to omit code when encoders or decoders have been disabled.
This adds two new #defines to config.h: HAVE_ENCODERS and
HAVE_DECODERS.

When --flush-timeout=TIMEOUT is used, xz will use
LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH if read() would block and at least
TIMEOUT milliseconds has elapsed since the previous flush.
This can be useful in realtime-like use cases where the
data is simultanously decompressed by another process
(possibly on a different computer). If new uncompressed
input data is produced slowly, without this option xz could
buffer the data for a long time until it would become
decompressible from the output.
If TIMEOUT is 0, the feature is disabled. This is the default.
This commit affects the compression side. Using xz for
the decompression side for the above purpose doesn't work
yet so well because there is quite a bit of input and
output buffering when decompressing.
The --long-help or man page were not updated yet.
The details of this feature may change.

It's broken with threads and when also --block-size is used.
|
|
Thanks to Bela Lubkin.
|
|
|
|
Now it always defaults to one thread. Maybe this
will change again if a threading method is added
that doesn't affect memory usage.
|
|
This uses LZMA_FULL_FLUSH every SIZE bytes of input.
Man page wasn't updated yet.
|
|
This can be useful when there is garbage after the
compressed stream (.xz, .lzma, or raw stream).
Man page wasn't updated yet.

Thanks Joerg Sonnenberger.

For several people, the limiter causes bigger problems that
it solves, so it is better to have it disabled by default.
Those who want to have a limiter by default need to enable
it via the environment variable XZ_DEFAULTS.
Support for environment variable XZ_DEFAULTS was added. It is
parsed before XZ_OPT and technically identical with it. The
intended uses differ quite a bit though; see the man page.
The memory usage limit can now be set separately for
compression and decompression using --memlimit-compress and
--memlimit-decompress. To set both at once, -M or --memlimit
can be used. --memory was retained as a legacy alias for
--memlimit for backwards compatibility.
The semantics of --info-memory were changed in backwards
incompatible way. Compatibility wasn't meaningful due to
changes in the memory usage limiter functionality.
The memory usage limiter info is no longer shown at the
bottom of xz --long -help.
The memory usage limiter support for removed completely from xzdec.
xz's man page was updated to match the above changes. Various
unrelated fixes were also made to the man page.

This should avoid some minor portability issues.

The spec isn't finished and the code didn't compile anymore.
It won't be included in XZ Utils 5.0.0. It's easy to get it
back once the spec is done.

Thanks to Robert Readman.

a regular file.
Sparse file creation can be disabled with --no-sparse.
I don't promise yet that the name of this option won't
change before 5.0.0. It's possible that the code, that
checks when it is safe to use sparse output on stdout,
is not good enough, and a more flexible command line
option is needed to configure sparse file handling.

Currently --robot works only with --info-memory and
--version. --help and --long-help work too, but --robot
has no effect on them.
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the original patches.

Separate a few reusable components from XZ Utils specific
code. The reusable code is now in "tuklib" modules. A few
more could be separated still, e.g. bswap.h.
Fix some bugs in lzmainfo.
Fix physmem and cpucores code on OS/2. Thanks to Elbert Pol
for help.
Add OpenVMS support into physmem. Add a few #ifdefs to ease
building XZ Utils on OpenVMS. Thanks to Jouk Jansen for the
original patch.

like "un", "cat", and "lz" when determining if
xz is run as unxz, xzcat, lzma, unlzma, or lzcat.
This is to ensure that if xz is renamed (e.g. via
--program-transform-name), it doesn't so easily
work in wrong mode.

--format=lzma. This means that xz emulating lzma
doesn't decompress .xz files, while before this
commit it did. The new way is slightly simpler in
code and especially in upcoming documentation.

compressing and decompressing. This should be OK now that
xz automatically scales down the compression settings if
they would exceed the memory usage limit (earlier, the limit
for compression was increased to 90 % because low limit broke
scripts that used "xz -9" on systems with low RAM).
Support spcifying the memory usage limit as a percentage
of RAM (e.g. --memory=50%).
Support --threads=0 to reset the thread limit to the default
value (number of available CPU cores). Use UINT32_MAX instead
of SIZE_MAX as the maximum in args.c. hardware.c was already
expecting uint32_t value.
Cleaned up the output of --help and --long-help.

Some minor documentation cleanups were made at the same time.

the number of CPU cores. Added support for using sysinfo()
on Linux systems whose libc lacks appropriate sysconf()
support (at least dietlibc). The Autoconf macros were
split into separate files, and CPU core count detection
was moved from hardware.c to cpucores.h. The core count
isn't used for anything real for now, so a problematic
part in process.c was commented out.
