Lasse Collin 9376f5f8f7 Build: Require Automake 1.12 and use serial-tests option.
It should actually still work with Automake 1.10 if
the serial-tests option is removed. Automake 1.13 started
using parallel tests by default and the option to get
the old behavior isn't supported before 1.12.

At least for now, parallel tests don't improve anything
in XZ Utils but they hide the progress output from
test_compress.sh.

Lasse Collin 46540e4c10 liblzma: Avoid a warning about a shadowed variable.
On Mac OS X wait() is declared in <sys/wait.h> that
we include one way or other so don't use "wait" as
a variable name.

Thanks to Christian Kujau.

Lasse Collin 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.

Lasse Collin 0c0a1947e6 xz: A couple of man page fixes.
Now the interaction of presets and custom filter chains
is described correctly. Earlier it contradicted itself.

Thanks to DevHC who reported these issues on IRC to me
on 2012-12-14.

Lasse Collin 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.

Lasse Collin 97379c5ea7 Build: Use -Wvla with GCC if supported.
Variable-length arrays are mandatory in C99 but optional in C11.
The code doesn't currently use any VLAs and it shouldn't in the
future either to stay compatible with C11 without requiring any
optional C11 features.

Lasse Collin 8957c58609 xzdec: Improve the --help message.
The options are now ordered in the same order as in xz's help
message.

Descriptions were added to the options that are ignored.
I left them in parenthesis even if it looks a bit weird
because I find it easier to spot the ignored vs. non-ignored
options from the list that way.

Lasse Collin 5ea900cb5a liblzma: Be less picky in lzma_alone_decoder().
To avoid false positives when detecting .lzma files,
rare values in dictionary size and uncompressed size fields
were rejected. They will still be rejected if .lzma files
are decoded with lzma_auto_decoder(), but when using
lzma_alone_decoder() directly, such files will now be accepted.
Hopefully this is an OK compromise.

This doesn't affect xz because xz still has its own file
format detection code. This does affect lzmadec though.
So after this commit lzmadec will accept files that xz or
xz-emulating-lzma doesn't.

NOTE: lzma_alone_decoder() still won't decode all .lzma files
because liblzma's LZMA decoder doesn't support lc + lp > 4.

Lasse Collin bb117fffa8 liblzma: Use lzma_block_buffer_bound64() in threaded encoder.
Now it uses lzma_block_uncomp_encode() if the data doesn't
fit into the space calculated by lzma_block_buffer_bound64().
2013-03-23 21:55:13 +02:00
Lasse Collin e572e123b5 liblzma: Fix another deadlock in the threaded encoder.
This race condition could cause a deadlock if lzma_end() was
called before finishing the encoding. This can happen with
xz with debugging enabled (non-debugging version doesn't
call lzma_end() before exiting).
2013-03-23 21:51:38 +02:00
Lasse Collin b465da5988 liblzma: Add lzma_block_uncomp_encode().
This also adds a new internal function
lzma_block_buffer_bound64() which is similar to
lzma_block_buffer_bound() but uses uint64_t instead
of size_t.

Lasse Collin 9e6dabcf22 Avoid unneeded use of awk in xzless.
Use "read" instead of "awk" in xzless to get the version
number of "less". The need for awk was introduced in
the commit db5c1817fa.

Thanks to Ariel P for the patch.

Lasse Collin 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.

Jonathan Nieder db5c1817fa xzless: Make "less -V" parsing more robust
In v4.999.9beta~30 (xzless: Support compressed standard input,
2009-08-09), xzless learned to parse ‘less -V’ output to figure out
whether less is new enough to handle $LESSOPEN settings starting
with “|-”.  That worked well for a while, but the version string from
‘less’ versions 448 (June, 2012) is misparsed, producing a warning:

	$ xzless /tmp/test.xz; echo $?
	/usr/bin/xzless: line 49: test: 456 (GNU regular expressions): \
	integer expression expected
	0

More precisely, modern ‘less’ lists the regexp implementation along
with its version number, and xzless passes the entire version number
with attached parenthetical phrase as a number to "test $a -gt $b",
producing the above confusing message.

	$ less-444 -V | head -1
	less 444
	$ less -V | head -1
	less 456 (no regular expressions)

So relax the pattern matched --- instead of expecting "less <number>",
look for a line of the form "less <number>[ (extra parenthetical)]".
While at it, improve the behavior when no matching line is found ---
instead of producing a cryptic message, we can fall back on a LESSPIPE
setting that is supported by all versions of ‘less’.

The implementation uses "awk" for simplicity.  Hopefully that’s
portable enough.

Lasse Collin 3778db1be5 liblzma: Make the use of lzma_allocator const-correct.
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.
