f0f1f6c723 xz: Don't fail if stdin doesn't support O_NONBLOCK.
It's a problem at least on OpenBSD which doesn't support
O_NONBLOCK on e.g. /dev/null. I'm not surprised if it's
a problem on other OSes too since this behavior is allowed
in POSIX-1.2008.

The code relying on this behavior was committed in June 2013
and included in 5.1.3alpha released on 2013-10-26. Clearly
the development releases only get limited testing.

54df428799 xz: Rename a variable to avoid a namespace collision on Solaris.
I don't know the details but I have an impression that there's

hurt either.

dd750acbe2 xz: Make --block-list and --block-size work together in single-threaded.
Previously, --block-list and --block-size only worked together
in threaded mode. Boundaries are specified by --block-list, but
--block-size specifies the maximum size for a Block. Now this
works in single-threaded mode too.

Thanks to James M Leddy for the original patch.

ba413da1d5 xz: Take advantage of LZMA_FULL_BARRIER with --block-list.
Now if --block-list is used in threaded mode, the encoder
won't need to flush at each Block boundary specified via
--block-list. This improves performance a lot, making
threading helpful with --block-list.

The flush timer was reset after LZMA_FULL_FLUSH but since
LZMA_FULL_BARRIER doesn't flush, resetting the timer is
no longer done.

6b44b4a775 Add native threading support on Windows.
Now liblzma only uses "mythread" functions and types
which are defined in mythread.h matching the desired
threading method.

Before Windows Vista, there is no direct equivalent to
pthread condition variables. Since this package doesn't
use pthread_cond_broadcast(), pre-Vista threading can
still be kept quite simple. The pre-Vista code doesn't
use anything that wasn't already available in Windows 95,
so the binaries should run even on Windows 95 if someone
happens to care.

dee6ad3d59 xz: Add preliminary support for --flush-timeout=TIMEOUT.
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.

ea00545bea xz: Fix the test when to read more input.
Testing for end of file was no longer correct after full flushing
became possible with --block-size=SIZE and --block-list=SIZES.
There was no bug in practice though because xz just made a few
unneeded zero-byte reads.

cdba9ddd87 xz: Use non-blocking I/O for the output file.
Now both reading and writing should be without
race conditions with signals.

They might still be signal handling issues left.
Signals are blocked during many operations to avoid
EINTR but it may cause problems e.g. if writing to
stderr blocks when trying to display an error message.

9dc319eabb xz: Use the self-pipe trick to avoid a race condition with signals.
It is possible that a signal to set user_abort arrives right
before a blocking system call is made. In this case the call
may block until another signal arrives, while the wanted
behavior is to make xz clean up and exit as soon as possible.

After this commit, the race condition is avoided with the
input side which already uses non-blocking I/O. The output
side still uses blocking I/O and thus has the race condition.

a616fdad34 xz: Fix error detection of fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, flags) calls.
POSIX says that fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, flags) returns -1 on
error and "other than -1" on success. This is how it is
documented e.g. on OpenBSD too. On Linux, success with
F_SETFL is always 0 (at least accorinding to fcntl(2)
from man-pages 3.51).

Lasse Collin
4a08a6e4c6 xz: Fix use of wrong variable in a fcntl() call.
Due to a wrong variable name, when writing a sparse file
to standard output, *all* file status flags were cleared
(to the extent the operating system allowed it) instead of
only clearing the O_APPEND flag. In practice this worked
fine in the common situations on GNU/Linux, but I didn't
check how it behaved elsewhere.

The original flags were still restored correctly. I still
changed the code to use a separate boolean variable to
indicate when the flags should be restored instead of
relying on a special value in stdout_flags.

to posix_fadvise() fails.

84d2da6c9d xz: Check the value of lzma_stream_flags.version in --list.
It is a no-op for now, but if an old xz version is used
together with a newer liblzma that supports something new,
then this check becomes important and will stop the old xz
from trying to parse files that it won't understand.

ebb501ec73 xz: Validate Uncompressed Size from Block Header in list.c.
This affects only "xz -lvv". Normal decompression with xz
already detected if Block Header and Index had mismatched
Uncompressed Size fields. So this just makes "xz -lvv"
show such files as corrupt instead of showing the
Uncompressed Size from Index.

2fcda89939 xz: Fix interaction between preset and custom filter chains.
There was somewhat illogical behavior when --extreme was
specified and mixed with custom filter chains.

Before this commit, "xz -9 --lzma2 -e" was equivalent
to "xz --lzma2". After it is equivalent to "xz -6e"
(all earlier preset options get forgotten when a custom
filter chain is specified and the default preset is 6
to which -e is applied). I find this less illogical.

This also affects the meaning of "xz -9e --lzma2 -7".
Earlier it was equivalent to "xz -7e" (the -e specified
before a custom filter chain wasn't forgotten). Now it
is "xz -7". Note that "xz -7e" still is the same as "xz -e7".

Hopefully very few cared about this in the first place,
so pretty much no one should even notice this change.

Thanks to Conley Moorhous.

e7b424d267 Make the progress indicator smooth in threaded mode.
This adds lzma_get_progress() to liblzma and takes advantage
of it in xz.

lzma_get_progress() collects progress information from
the thread-specific structures so that fairly accurate
progress information is available to applications. Adding
a new function seemed to be a better way than making the
information directly available in lzma_stream (like total_in
and total_out are) because collecting the information requires
locking mutexes. It's waste of time to do it more often than
the up to date information is actually needed by an application.

f9907503f8 Build: Remove the static/dynamic tricks.
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.

bb0b1004f8 xz: Multiple fixes.
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.

792331bdee Disable the memory usage limiter by default.
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.

The extra space for showing both has been taken from the

progress is still happening with huge files, but it should
be OK in practice.

cf38da00a1 Treat all integer multiplier suffixes as base-2.
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.

2672bcc9f8 Increase the default memory usage limit on "low-memory" systems.
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.

231c3c7098 Delay opening the destionation file and other fixes.
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).
