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.

It could do an invalid free() and read past the end
of the uninitialized filters array.
|
|
Thanks to Jim Meyering.

French needs a space before a colon, e.g. "xz : foo error".

It didn't mention the return value that is used if
an error occurs.
|
|
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.
|
|
This return value was missing from the API comments of
four functions.
|
|
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.
|
|
Passing --disable-decoders to configure broke a few
encoders due to missing #ifdefs in filter_common.c.
Thanks to Jason Gorski for the patch.
|
|
It leaks old filter options structures (hundred bytes or so)
every time the lzma_stream is reinitialized. With the xz tool,
this happens when compressing multiple files.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
Now it uses "grep -q".
Thanks to Gregory Margo.
|
|
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.
|
|
struct suffix_pair isn't needed in compresed_name()
so get rid of it there.
|
|
Now "xz -S .test foo.test" refuses to compress the
file because it already has the suffix .test. The man
page had it documented this way already.
|
|
|
|
xz didn't compress setuid/setgid/sticky files and files
with multiple hard links even with --force. This bug was
introduced in 23ac2c44c3ac76994825adb7f9a8f719f78b5ee4.
Thanks to Charles Wilson.

This fixes portability to systems that lack C99 inttypes.h.
Thanks to Juan Manuel Guerrero.
|
|
Juan Manuel Guerrero had fixed this in his XZ Utils port
to DOS/DJGPP. The bug affects also Windows and OS/2.

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.
|
|
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.
|
|
This lets compiler use shifting instead of 64-bit division.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adding support for LZMA_FINISH for Index encoding and
decoding needed tiny additions to the relevant .c files too.
|
|
lzma_chunk_size() was commented out because it is
currently useless.
|
|
This is similar to DOS/DJGPP that killing the program
with a signal will print a backtrace or a similar message.
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|

Thanks to Jonathan Nieder.

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.

depth=0 was missing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The code assumed that printing numbers with thousand separators
and decimal points would always produce only US-ASCII characters.
This was used for buffer sizes (with snprintf(), no overflows)
and aligning columns of the progress indicator and --list. That
assumption was wrong (e.g. LC_ALL=fi_FI.UTF-8 with glibc), so
multibyte character support was added in this commit. The old
way is used if the operating system doesn't have enough multibyte
support (e.g. lacks wcwidth()).
The sizes of buffers were increased to accomodate multibyte
characters. I don't know how big they should be exactly, but
they aren't used for anything critical, so it's not too bad.
If they still aren't big enough, I hopefully get a bug report.
snprintf() takes care of avoiding buffer overflows.
Some static buffers were replaced with buffers allocated on
stack. double_to_str() was removed. uint64_to_str() and
uint64_to_nicestr() now share the static buffer and test
for thousand separator support.
Integrity check names "None" and "Unknown-N" (2 <= N <= 15)
were marked to be translated. I had forgot these, plus they
wouldn't have worked correctly anyway before this commit,
because printing tables with multibyte strings didn't work.
Thanks to Marek Černocký for reporting the bug about
misaligned table columns in --list output.

I had somehow thought that N_() is usually used
as shorthand for ngettext().
This also fixes a missing \n from a call to ngettext().

This should reduce the cases where --extreme makes
compression worse. On the other hand, some other
files may now benefit slightly less from --extreme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Extreme" mode might need some further tweaking still.
Docs were not updated yet.
|
|
It was 8 + nice_len / 4, now it is 4 + nice_len / 4.
This allows faster settings at lower nice_len values,
even though it seems that I won't use automatic depth
calcuation with HC3 and HC4 in the presets.
|
|
At least for now, the --help option doesn't list any
options that take arguments, so "Mandatory arguments to..."
can be omitted.
|
|
This is more logical behavior than ignoring preset level
options once a custom filter chain has been specified.
|
|
|

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.

When using -O2 with GCC, it liked to swap two comparisons
in one "if" statement. It's otherwise fine except that
the latter part, which is seemingly never executed, got
executed (nothing wrong with that) and then triggered
warning in Valgrind about conditional jump depending on
uninitialized variable. A few people find this annoying
so do things a bit differently to avoid the warning.
|

I want to get a bug report if something else than
DJGPP lacks SA_RESTART.

- Concatenating .xz files and padding
- List mode
- Robot mode
- A few examples (but many more are needed)

for the future.

This should have been done in
920a69a8d8e4203c5edddd829d932130eac188ea.
|

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.
|
|
message_filters_to_str() converts the filter chain to
a string. message_filters_show() replaces the original
message_filters().
uint32_to_optstr() was also added to show the dictionary
size in nicer format when possible.
|
|
It isn't really useful so omitting it makes things
shorter and slightly more readable.
|
|
Don't use #error to generate compile error, because some
compilers actually don't take it as an error. This fixes
tuklib_physmem on IRIX.
Fix incorrect error check for sysconf() return values.
Add AIX, HP-UX, and Tru64 specific code to detect the
amount RAM.
Add HP-UX specific code to detect the number of CPU cores.
Thanks a lot to Peter O'Gorman for initial patches,
testing, and debugging these fixes.
|
|
The extra space for showing both has been taken from the
sizes field. If the sizes grow big, bigger units than MiB
will be used. It makes it slightly difficult to see that
progress is still happening with huge files, but it should
be OK in practice.
Thanks to Trent W. Buck for <http://bugs.debian.org/574583>
and Jonathan Nieder for suggestions how to fix it.
|
|
Thanks to someone who reported the bug on IRC.
|
|
Originally both base-2 and base-10 were supported, but since
there seems to be little need for base-10 in XZ Utils, treat
everything as base-2 and also be more relaxed about the case
of the first letter of the suffix. Now xz will accept e.g.
KiB, Ki, k, K, kB, and KB, and interpret them all as 1024. The
recommended spelling of the suffixes are still KiB, MiB, and GiB.
|
|
It still feels a bit wrong to round 1 byte to 1 MiB but
at least it is now done consistently so that the same
byte value is always rounded the same way to MiB.
|
|
Previously the default limit was always 40 % of RAM. The
new limit is a little bit more complex:
- If 40 % of RAM is at least 80 MiB, 40 % of RAM is used
as the limit.
- If 80 % of RAM is over 80 MiB, 80 MiB is used as the limit.
- Otherwise 80 % of RAM is used as the limit.
This should make it possible to decompress files created with
"xz -9" on more systems. Swapping is generally more expected
on systems with less RAM, so higher default limit on them
shouldn't cause too bad surprises in terms of heavy swapping.
Instead, the higher default limit should reduce the number of
bad surprises when it used to prevent decompression of files
created with "xz -9". The DoS prevention system shouldn't be
a DoS itself.
Note that even with the new default limit, a system with 64 MiB
RAM cannot decompress files created with "xz -9" without user
overriding the limit. This should be OK, because if xz is going
to need more memory than the system has RAM, it will run very
very slowly and thus it's good that user has to override the limit
in that case.
|
|
With bad luck, lzma_code() could return LZMA_BUF_ERROR
when it shouldn't.
This has been here since the early days of liblzma.
It got triggered by the modifications made to the xz
tool in commit 18c10c30d2833f394cd7bce0e6a821044b15832f
but only when decompressing .lzma files. Somehow I managed
to miss testing that with Valgrind earlier.
This fixes <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305591>.
Thanks to Rafał Mużyło for helping to debug it on IRC.

This allows the files to work on HURD.

lzma_block.version has to be initialized even for
lzma_block_header_decode(). This way a future version
of liblzma won't allocate memory in a way that an old
application doesn't know how to free it.
The subtlety of this change is that all current apps
using lzma_block_header_decode() will keep working for
now, because the only possible version value is zero,
and lzma_block_header_decode() unconditionally sets the
version to zero even now. Unless fixed, these apps will
break in the future if a new version of the Block options
is ever needed.
|
|
This was added in 455e68c030fde8a8c2f5e254c3b3ab9489bf3735.
|

|
|
|
xz --force accepted symlinks, but didn't remove
them after successful compression. Instead, an error
message was displayed.
|
|
Previously it was set statically to CRC64 or CRC32
depending on options passed to the configure script.
|
|
|
|
If signal handlers haven't been established, then it's
useless to try to block them, especially since the sigset_t
used for blocking hasn't been initialized yet.
|
|
The opening of the destination file is now delayed a little.
The coder is initialized, and if decompressing, the memory
usage of the first Block compared against the memory
usage limit before the destination file is opened. This
means that if --force was used, the old "target" file won't
be deleted so easily when something goes wrong very early.
Thanks to Mark K for the bug report.
The above fix required some changes to progress message
handling. Now there is a separate function for setting and
printing the filename. It is used also in list.c.
list_file() now handles stdin correctly (gives an error).
A useless check for user_abort was removed from file_io.c.

This is a bit rough but should be useful for basic things.
Ideas (with detailed examples) about the output format are
welcome.
The output of --robot --list is not necessarily stable yet,
although I don't currently have any plans about changing it.
The man page hasn't been updated yet.
|
|
It will be used by --list.
|
|
It is to ensure that floating point numbers
will always have a dot as the decimal separator.
|
|
|
|
|
|
to a terminal even if --force is specified.
It just seems more reasonable this way.
The new behavior matches bzip2. The old one matched gzip.
|
|
to stdout even if --force is used.
--force will still enable compression of symlinks, but only
in case they point to a regular file.
The new way simply seems more reasonable. It matches gzip's
behavior while the old one matched bzip2's behavior.
|
|
This is untested but it will get tested soon and, if needed,
fixed before 5.0.0.
Thanks to Stuart Shelton.
|
|
This affects lzma_memusage() and lzma_memlimit_get().
|
|
This breaks API and ABI but most apps are not affected
since most apps don't use this part of the API. You will
get a compile error if you are using anything that got
broken.
Summary of changes:
- Ability to store Stream Flags, which are needed
for random-access reading in multi-Stream files.
- Separate function to set size of Stream Padding.
- Iterator structure makes it possible to read the same
lzma_index from multiple threads at the same time.
- A lot faster code to locate Blocks.
- Removed lzma_index_equal() without adding anything
to replace it. I don't know what it should do exactly
with the new features and what actually needs this
function in the first place other than test_index.c,
which now has its own code to compare lzma_indexes.

I understood that this is nicer, because then people
don't need to worry about the LZMA_API_STATIC macro.

Fix a missing _() in the error message too.
|
|
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder.
|
|
With bad luck this could cause a segfault due to
reading (but not writing) past the end of the buffer.
|
|
lzma_index_read() didn't skip over Stream Padding
if it was the first record in the Index.
lzma_index_cat() didn't combine small Indexes correctly.
The test suite was updated to check for these bugs.
These bugs didn't affect the xz command line tool or
most users of liblzma in any way.
|
|
The Index decoder code didn't perfectly match the API docs,
which said that *i will be set to point to the decoded Index
only after decoding has succeeded. The docs were a bit unclear
too.
Now the decoder will initially set *i to NULL. *i will be set
to point to the decoded Index once decoding has succeeded.
This simplifies applications too, since it avoids dangling
pointers.
|
|
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.

|

I had hoped to keep liblzma as purely a compression
library as possible (e.g. file I/O will go into
a different library), but it seems that applications
linking agaisnt liblzma need some way to determine
the memory usage limit, and knowing the amount of RAM
is one reasonable way to help making such decisions.
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the original patch.

Originally the idea was that using LZMA_FULL_FLUSH
with Stream encoder would read the filter chain
from the same array that was used to intialize the
Stream encoder. Since most apps wouldn't use
LZMA_FULL_FLUSH, most apps wouldn't need to keep
the filter chain available after initializing the
Stream encoder. However, due to my mistake, it
actually required keeping the array always available.
Since setting the new filter chain via the array
used at initialization time is not a nice way to do
it for a couple of reasons, this commit ditches it
and introduces lzma_filters_update(). This new function
replaces also the "persistent" flag used by LZMA2
(and to-be-designed Subblock filter), which was also
an ugly thing to do.
Thanks to Alexey Tourbin for reminding me about the problem
that Stream encoder used to require keeping the filter
chain allocated.
|
|
It was meant to be lzma_filters_copy(), not lzma_filters_dup().
|
|
This will be needed internally by liblzma once I fix
a design mistake in the encoder API. This function may
be useful to applications too so it's good to export it.
|
|
A minus sign is larger, easier to see in a printout, and more
likely to use the same glyph as ASCII hyphen-minus in a terminal
than a hyphen. Since broken manual pagers do not find hyphens
when the user searches for a hyphen-minus, minus signs are also
easier to search for. So use minus signs instead of hyphens to
render sample terminal output.
|
|
the man page though.
Thanks to Jim Meyering for noticing this.
|
|
This replaces bswap.h and integer.h.
The tuklib module uses <byteswap.h> on GNU,
<sys/endian.h> on *BSDs and <sys/byteorder.h>
on Solaris, which may contain optimized code
like inline assembly.
|
|
|
|
in lz_encoder_hash.h.
|
|
Seems that it is a problem in some cases if the same
version of XZ Utils produces different output on different
endiannesses, so this commit fixes that problem. The output
will still vary between different XZ Utils versions, but I
cannot avoid that for now.
This commit bloatens the code on big endian systems by 1 KiB,
which should be OK since liblzma is bloated already. ;-)

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

This fixes "make install" on operating systems using
a suffix for executables.
Cygwin is treated specially. The symlink names won't have
.exe suffix even though the executables themselves have.
Thanks to Charles Wilson.
|

|
|
Also move DJGPP-specific code near the code meant
for other DOS-like systems.
|
|
the function call succeeded.
NetBSD 4.0 returns positive values on success, but
NetBSD Current and FreeBSD return zero. OpenBSD's
man page doesn't tell what sysctl() returns on
success. All these BSDs return -1 on error.

xz used to reject "xz --lzma2=pb=2," while
"xz --lzma2=pb=2,," worked. Now both work.
|
|
and use a fix that works on all systems using
GNU assembler.
Maybe the assembler code is used e.g. on Solaris x86
but let's worry about it if this doesn't work on it.
|
|
Seems that in addition on Windows and DOS, also OpenBSD
lacks support for %'d style printf() format strings.
So far that is the only modern POSIX-like system I know
with this problem, but after this hack, the thousand
separator shouldn't be a problem on any system.
Maybe testing if a format string like %'d produces
reasonable output is invoking undefined behavior on some
systems, but so far all the problematic systems I've tried
just print the raw format string (e.g. %'d prints 'd).
Maybe Autoconf test would have been better, but this
hack works also for cross-compilation, and avoids
recompilation in case the system libc starts to support
the thousand separator.

install-exec-hook -> install-data-hook
|

lzmainfo now links against static liblzma. In contrast
to other command line tools in XZ Utils, linking lzmainfo
against static liblzma by default is dumb. This will be
fixed once I have fixed some related issues in configure.ac.
|
|
Make xz error message translation usable outside
xz (at least in upcoming lzmainfo).
|

Attempts to compare two compressed files result in no output and
exit status 2.
Instead of going to standard output, ‘diff’ output is being
captured in the xz_status variable along with the exit status from
the decompression commands. Later, when this variable is examined
for nonzero status codes, numerals from dates in the ‘diff’ output
make it appear as though decompression failed.
So let the ‘diff’ output leak to standard output with another file
descriptor. (This trick is used in all similar contexts elsewhere
in xzdiff and in the analogous context in gzip’s zdiff script.)
|

It can be somewhat confusing that
less < some_file.txt
works fine, whereas
xzless < some_file.txt.xz
does not. Since version 429, ‘less’ allows a filter specified in
the LESSOPEN environment variable to preprocess its input even if
it comes from standard input, if $LESSOPEN begins with ‘|-’. So
set $LESSOPEN to take advantage of this feature.
Check less’s version at runtime so xzless can continue to work
with older versions.
