The bug is only a problem in applications that do not properly terminate
the filters[] array with LZMA_VLI_UNKNOWN or have more than
LZMA_FILTERS_MAX filters. This bug does not affect xz.
Added a few sentences to the description for lzma_block_encoder() and
lzma_block_decoder() to highlight that the Block Header must be coded
before calling these functions.
Standardizing each function to always specify params and return values.
Output pointer parameters are also marked with doxygen style [out] to
make it clear. Any note sections were also moved above the parameter and
return sections for consistency.
The flag description for LZMA_STR_NO_VALIDATION was previously confusing
about the treatment for filters than cannot be used with .xz format
(lzma1) without using LZMA_STR_ALL_FILTERS. Now, it is clear that
LZMA_STR_NO_VALIDATION is not a super set of LZMA_STR_ALL_FILTERS.
This way, if xz is stopped the elapsed time and estimated time
remaining won't get confused by the amount of time spent in
the stopped state.
This raises SIGSTOP. It's not clear to me if this is the correct way.
POSIX and glibc docs say that SIGTSTP shouldn't stop the process if
it is orphaned but this commit doesn't attempt to handle that.
Search for SIGTSTP in section 2.4.3:

The previous documentation for lzma_str_to_filters() was technically
correct, but misleading. lzma_str_to_filters() returns NULL on success,
which is in practice always defined to 0. This is the same value as
LZMA_OK, but lzma_str_to_filters() does not return lzma_ret so we should
be more clear.
This reverts commit 82e3c968bf.
Macros in the reserved namespace (_foo or __foo) shouldn't be #defined
without a very good reason. Here the alternative would have been
to #define tuklib_has_warning(str) to an approriate value.
Also the tuklib_* files should stay namespace clean if possible.
__has_warning and other __has_foo macros are meant to become
compiler-agnostic so it's not good to check for __clang__ with it.
This also relied on tuklib_common.h for #defining __has_warning
which was confusing as #defining reserved macros is generally
not a good idea.
tuklib_physmem depends on GetProcAddress() for both MSVC and MinGW-w64
to retrieve a function address. The proper way to do this is to cast the
return value to the type of function pointer retrieved. Unfortunately,
this causes a cast-function-type warning, so the best solution is to
simply ignore the warning.
clang supports the __has_warning macro to determine if the version of
clang compiling the code supports a given warning. If we do not define
it for other compilers, it may cause a preprocessor error.
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.
It doesn't warn on a 64-bit system because truncating
a ptrdiff_t (signed long) to uint32_t is diagnosed under
-Wconversion by GCC and -Wshorten-64-to-32 by Clang.
This is similar to 2ce4f36f17.
The actual initialization of the variables is done inside
mythread_sync() macro. Clang doesn't seem to see that
the initialization code inside the macro is always executed.
clang and gcc differ in how they handle -Wformat-nonliteral. gcc will
allow a non-literal format string as long as the function takes its
format arguments as a va_list.
This affects only 32-bit x86 builds. x86-64 is OK as is.
I still cannot easily test this myself. The reporter has tested
this and it passes the tests included in the CMake build and
performance is good: raw CRC64 is 2-3 times faster than the
C version of the slice-by-four method. (Note that liblzma doesn't
include a MSVC-compatible version of the 32-bit x86 assembly code
for the slice-by-four method.)
Thanks to Iouri Kharon for figuring out a fix, testing, and
benchmarking.
This reverts commit 36edc65ab4.
It was reported that it wasn't a good enough fix and MSVC
still produced (different kind of) bad code when building
for 32-bit x86 if optimizations are enabled.
Thanks to Iouri Kharon.
On some platforms src/xz/suffix.c may need <strings.h> for
strcasecmp() but suffix.c includes the header when it needs it.
Unless there is an old system that otherwise supports enough C99
to build XZ Utils but doesn't have C89/C90-compatible <string.h>,
there should be no need to include <strings.h> in sysdefs.h.
SUSv2 and POSIX.1‐2017 declare only a few functions in <strings.h>.
Of these, strcasecmp() is used on some platforms in suffix.c.
Nothing else in the project needs <strings.h> (at least if
building on a modern system).
sysdefs.h currently includes <strings.h> if HAVE_STRINGS_H is
defined and suffix.c relied on this.
Note that dos/config.h doesn't #define HAVE_STRINGS_H even though
DJGPP does have strings.h. It isn't needed with DJGPP as strcasecmp()
is also in <string.h> in DJGPP.
It quite probably was never needed, that is, any system where memory.h
was required likely couldn't compile XZ Utils for other reasons anyway.
XZ Utils 5.2.6 and later source packages were generated using
Autoconf 2.71 which no longer defines HAVE_MEMORY_H. So the code
being removed is no longer used anyway.
I haven't tested with MSVC myself and there doesn't seem to be
information about the problem online, so I'm relying on the bug report.
Thanks to Iouri Kharon for the bug report and the patch.
