It now tries to test as many files as easily possible.
The exit status indicates skipping if any of the files were
skipped. This way it is easy to notice if something is being
skipped when it isn't expected.
xz (but not xzdec) will normally warn about unsupported check
but since we are testing specifically such a file, it's better
to silence that warning so that it doesn't look suspicious in
test_files.sh.log.
The use of -q and -Q in xzdec is just for consistency and
doesn't affect the result at least for now.
We require Autoconf >= 2.69 and that has AC_CONFIG_HEADERS.
There is a warning about AC_PROG_CC_C99 being obsolete but
it cannot be removed because it is needed with Autoconf 2.69.
MicroLZMA was made for EROFS and used by erofs-utils.
It might be used by something else in the future but
those wanting a smaller build for specific situations
can now disable this rarely-needed feature.
Example:
$ xz -dc --single-stream good-0-empty.xz
xz: good-0-empty.xz: Internal error (bug)
The code, that is tries to catch some input file issues early,
didn't anticipate LZMA_STREAM_END which is possible in that
code only when --single-stream is used.
Now files with unsupported check will make xz display
a warning, set the exit status to 2 (unless --no-warn is used),
and then decompress the file normally. This is how it was
supposed to work since the beginning but this was broken by
the commit 231c3c7098, that is,
a little before 5.0.0 was released. The buggy behavior displayed
a message, set exit status 1 (error), and xz didn't attempt to
to decompress the file.
This doesn't matter today except for special builds that disable
CRC64 or SHA-256 at build time (but such builds should be used
in special situations only). The bug matters if new check type
is added in the future and an old xz version is used to decompress
such a file; however, it's likely that such files would use a new
filter too and an old xz wouldn't be able to decompress the file
anyway.
The first hunk in the commit is the actual fix. The second hunk
is a cleanup since LZMA_TELL_ANY_CHECK isn't used in xz.
There is a test file for unsupported check type but it wasn't
used by test_files.sh, perhaps due to different behavior between
xz and the simpler xzdec.
Treating it as a warning (message + exit status 2) matches gzip
and it seems more logical as at that point the output file has
already been successfully closed. When it's a warning it is
possible to suppress it with --no-warn.
On OpenBSD the number of cores online is often less
than what HW_NCPU would return because OpenBSD disables
simultaneous multi-threading (SMT) by default.
Thanks to Christian Weisgerber.
This isn't perfect as the scripts can still fail if only
certain filters are disabled. This is still an improvement
as now "make check" has better behavior when all encoders
or decoders are disabled.
Grepping ../config.h is simple and fairly clean but it only
works if config.h was created. CMake builds don't create
config.h but they don't use these test scripts either.
Thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior for reporting the problem.
Thanks to Jia Tan for the original patch which grepped xz
error messages instead of config.h.
I suspect that I used these in the original version because
Autoconf's manual describes that such a trick is needed in
some specific situations for portability reasons. None of those
situations listed on Autoconf 2.71 manual apply to these test
scripts though so this cleans them up.
Converts test_stream_flags to tuktest. Also the test will now
compile and skip properly if encoders or decoders are disabled.
Thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
test_block_header now achieves higher test coverage. Also the
test will now compile and skip properly if encoders or decoders
are disabled.
Thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
test_bcj_exact_size, test_check, test_hardware, and test_index will
all now compile and skip properly if encoders or decoders are disabled.
Also fixed a small typo (disabed -> disabled).
Thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
When encoders were disabled and threading enabled, outqueue.c and
outqueue.h were not compiled. The multi threaded decoder required
these files, so compilation failed.
The documentation states LZMA_PROG_ERROR can be returned from
lzma_index_cat. Previously, lzma_index_cat could not return
LZMA_PROG_ERROR. Now, the validation is similar to
lzma_index_append, which does a NULL check on the index
parameter.
The check type of the last Stream in dest was never copied to
dest->checks (the code tried to copy it but it was done too late).
This meant that the value returned by lzma_index_checks() would
only include the check type of the last Stream when multiple
lzma_indexes had been concatenated.
In xz --list this meant that the summary would only list the
check type of the last Stream, so in this sense this was only
a visual bug. However, it's possible that some applications
use this information for purposes other than merely showing
it to the users in an informational message. I'm not aware of
such applications though and it's quite possible that such
applications don't exist.
Regular streamed decompression in xz or any other application
doesn't use lzma_index_cat() and so this bug cannot affect them.
If lzma_code() returns LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR it is now possible
to use lzma_memlimit_set() to increase the limit and continue
decoding. This was supposed to work from the beginning but
there was a bug. With other decoders (.lzma or threaded .xz)
this already worked correctly.
That is, the Filter ID will be changed once the design is final.
The current version will be removed. So files created with the
tempoary Filter ID won't be supported in the future.
This test fails before commit 18d7facd38.
test_files.sh now runs xz -l for bad-3-index-uncomp-overflow.xz
because only then the previously-buggy code path gets tested.
Normal decompression doesn't use lzma_index_append() at all.
Instead, lzma_index_hash functions are used and those already
did the overflow check.
Running the current xzgrep on Slackware 10.1 with GNU bash 3.00.15:
xzgrep: line 231: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'
On SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 with Korn Shell 93r:
syntax error at line 231 : `;;' unexpected
Turns out that some old shells don't like apostrophes (') inside
command substitutions. For example, the following fails:
x=$(echo foo
# asdf'zxcv
echo bar)
printf '%s\n' "$x"
The problem was introduced by commits
69d1b3fc29 (2022-03-29),
bd7b290f3f (2022-07-18), and
a648978b20 (2022-07-19).
5.2.6 is the only stable release that included
this problem.
Thanks to Kevin R. Bulgrien for reporting the problem
on SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 and for providing the fix.
Warnings about unused tuktest_run_test conveniently tell which
test programs haven't been converted to tuktest.h yet but I
silenced that warning too for now anyway.
It is fine to use __attribute__((__unused__)) even when the
function is actually used because the attribute only means
that the function might be unused.
lzma_stream_encoder() and lzma_stream_encoder_mt() always assumed
this. Before this patch, failing lzma_filters_copy() could result
in free(invalid_pointer) or invalid memory reads in stream_encoder.c
or stream_encoder_mt.c.
To trigger this, allocating memory for a filter options structure
has to fail. These are tiny allocations so in practice they very
rarely fail.
Certain badness in the filter chain array could also make
lzma_filters_copy() fail but both stream_encoder.c and
stream_encoder_mt.c validate the filter chain before
trying to copy it, so the crash cannot occur this way.
The documentation in src/liblzma/api/lzma/index.h suggests that
both the unpadded (compressed) size and the uncompressed size
are checked for overflow, but only the unpadded size was checked.
The uncompressed check is done first since that is more likely to
occur than the unpadded or index field size overflows.
