lzma_raw_encoder() and lzma_raw_encoder_init() used "options" as the
parameter name instead of "filters" (used by the declaration). "filters"
is more clear since the parameter represents the list of filters passed
to the raw encoder, each of which contains filter options.
lzma_encoder_init() did not check for NULL options, but
lzma2_encoder_init() did. This is more of a code style improvement than
anything else to help make lzma_encoder_init() and lzma2_encoder_init()
more similar.
The new is_tty() will report if a file descriptor is a terminal or not.
On POSIX systems, it is a wrapper around isatty(). However, the native
Windows implementation of isatty() will return true for all character
devices, not just terminals. So is_tty() has a special case for Windows
so it can use alternative Windows API functions to determine if a file
descriptor is a terminal.
This fixes a bug with MSVC and MinGW-w64 builds that refused to read from
or write to non-terminal character devices because xz thought it was a
terminal. For instance:
xz foo -c > /dev/null
would fail because /dev/null was assumed to be a terminal.
The following command caused a segmentation fault:
xz -Fraw --lzma1 --files=foo
when foo was a valid file. The usage of --files or --files0 was not
being checked when compressing or decompressing in raw mode without a
suffix. The suffix checking code was meant to validate that all files
to be processed are "-" (if not writing to standard out), meaning the
data is only coming from standard in. In this case, there were no file
names to check since --files and --files0 store their file name in a
different place.
Later code assumed the suffix was set and caused a segmentation fault.
Now, the above command results in an error.
The previous version set opt_stdout, but this caused an issue with
copying an input file to standard out when decompressing an unknown file
type. The following needs to result in an error:
echo foo | xz -df
since -c, --stdout is not used. This fixes the previous error by not
setting opt_stdout.
This fixes a bug introduced in cc5aa9ab13
when the suffix check was initially moved. This caused a situation that
previously worked:
echo foo | xz -Fraw --lzma1 | wc -c
to fail because the old code knew that this would write to standard out
so a suffix was not needed.
If the -c, --stdout argument is not used, then we can still detect when
the data will be written to standard out if all of the provided
filenames are "-" (denoting standard in) or if no filenames are
provided.
The macro lzma_attr_visibility_hidden has to be defined to make
fastpos.h usable. The visibility attribute is irrelevant to
fastpos_tablegen.c so simply #define the macro to an empty value.
fastpos_tablegen.c is never built by the included build systems
and so the problem wasn't noticed earlier. It's just a standalone
program for generating fastpos_table.c.

Thanks to GitHub user Jamaika1.
In ELF shared libs:
-fvisibility=hidden affects definitions of symbols but not
declarations.[*] This doesn't affect direct calls to functions
inside liblzma as a linker can replace a call to lzma_foo@plt
with a call directly to lzma_foo when -fvisibility=hidden is used.
[*] It has to be like this because otherwise every installed
header file would need to explictly set the symbol visibility
to default.
When accessing extern variables that aren't defined in the
same translation unit, compiler assumes that the variable has
the default visibility and thus indirection is needed. Unlike
function calls, linker cannot optimize this.
Using __attribute__((__visibility__("hidden"))) with the extern
variable declarations tells the compiler that indirection isn't
needed because the definition is in the same shared library.
About 15+ years ago, someone told me that it would be good if
the CRC tables would be defined in the same translation unit
as the C code of the CRC functions. While I understood that it
could help a tiny amount, I didn't want to change the code because
a separate translation unit for the CRC tables was needed for the
x86 assembly code anyway. But when visibility attributes are
supported, simply marking the extern declaration with the
hidden attribute will get identical result. When there are only
a few affected variables, this is trivial to do. I wish I had
understood this back then already.
MinGW (formely a MinGW.org Project, later the MinGW.OSDN Project
at <https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/>) has GCC 9.2.0 as the
most recent GCC package (released 2021-02-02). The project might
still be alive but majority of people have switched to MinGW-w64.
Thus it seems clearer to refer to MinGW-w64 in our API headers too.
Building with MinGW is likely to still work but I haven't tested it
in the recent years.
It properly adds -DLZMA_API_STATIC when compiling code that
will be linked against static liblzma. Having it there on
systems other than Windows does no harm.
See: https://www.msys2.org/docs/pkgconfig/
This removes support for FreeBSD 10.0 and 10.1 which used
<sys/capability.h> instead of <sys/capsicum.h>. Support for
FreeBSD 10.1 ended on 2016-12-31. So now FreeBSD >= 10.2 is
required to enable Capsicum support.
This also removes support for Capsicum on Linux (libcaprights)
which seems to have been unmaintained since 2017 and Linux 4.11:
https://github.com/google/capsicum-linux
This commit alone doesn't change anything in the real-world:
- configure.ac currently checks for clock_gettime() only
when using pthreads.
- CMakeLists.txt doesn't check for clock_gettime() on Windows.
So clock_gettime() wasn't used with MinGW-w64 before either.
clock_gettime() provides monotonic time and it's better than
gettimeofday() in this sense. But clock_gettime() is defined
in winpthreads, and liblzma or xz needs nothing else from
winpthreads. By avoiding clock_gettime(), we avoid the dependency on
libwinpthread-1.dll or the need to link against the static version.
As a bonus, GetTickCount64() and MinGW-w64's gettimeofday() can be
faster than clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &tv). The resolution
is more than good enough for the progress indicator in xz.
This partially reverts creating crc_clmul.c
(8c0f9376f5) where is_clmul_supported()
was moved, extern'ed, and renamed to lzma_is_clmul_supported(). This
caused a problem when the function call to lzma_is_clmul_supported()
results in a call through the PLT. ifunc resolvers run very early in
the dynamic loading sequence, so the PLT may not be setup properly at
this point. Whether the PLT is used or not for
lzma_is_clmul_supported() depened upon the compiler-toolchain used and
flags.
In liblzma compiled with GCC, for instance, GCC will go through the PLT
for function calls internal to liblzma if the version scripts and
symbol visibility hiding are not used. If lazy-binding is disabled,
then it would have made any program linked with liblzma fail during
dynamic loading in the ifunc resolver.
Currently crc32 is always enabled, so COND_CHECK_CRC32 must always be
set. Because of this, it makes the recent change to conditionally
compile check/crc_clmul.c appear wrong since that file has CLMUL
implementations for both CRC32 and CRC64.
After forcing crc_simd_body() to always be inlined it caused
-fsanitize=address to fail for lzma_crc32_clmul() and
lzma_crc64_clmul(). The __no_sanitize_address__ attribute was added
to lzma_crc32_clmul() and lzma_crc64_clmul(), but not removed from
crc_simd_body(). ASAN and inline functions behavior has changed over
the years for GCC specifically, so while strictly required we will
keep __attribute__((__no_sanitize_address__)) on crc_simd_body() in
case this becomes a requirement in the future.
Older GCC versions refuse to inline a function with ASAN if the
caller and callee do not agree on sanitization flags
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89124#c3). If the
function was forced to be inlined, it will not compile if the callee
function has __no_sanitize_address__ but the caller doesn't.
In XZ Utils context this doesn't matter much because
unaligned reads and writes aren't used in hot code
when TUKLIB_FAST_UNALIGNED_ACCESS isn't #defined.
After testing a 32-bit Release build on MSVC, only lzma_crc64_clmul()
has the bug. crc_simd_body() and lzma_crc32_clmul() do not need the
optimizations disabled.
Forcing this to be inline has a significant speed improvement at the
cost of a few repeated instructions. The compilers tested on did not
inline this function since it is large and is used twice in the same
translation unit.
This macro must be used instead of the inline keyword. On MSVC, it is
a replacement for __forceinline which is an MSVC specific keyword that
should not be used with inline (it will issue a warning if it is).
It does not use a build system check to determine if
__attribute__((__always_inline__)) since all compilers that can use
CLMUL extensions (except the special case for MSVC) should support this
attribute. If this assumption is incorrect then it will result in a bug
report instead of silently producing slow code.
A detailed description of the three dispatch methods was added. Also,
duplicated comments now only appear in crc32_fast.c or were removed from
both crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c if they appeared in crc_clmul.c.
Both crc32_clmul() and crc64_clmul() are now exported from
crc32_clmul.c as lzma_crc32_clmul() and lzma_crc64_clmul(). This
ensures that is_clmul_supported() (now lzma_is_clmul_supported()) is
not duplicated between crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c.
Also, it encapsulates the complexity of the CLMUL implementations into a
single file and reduces the complexity of crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c.
Before, CLMUL code was present in crc32_fast.c, crc64_fast.c, and
crc_common.h.
During the conversion, various cleanups were applied to code (thanks to
Lasse Collin) including:
- Require using semicolons with MASK_/L/H/LH macros.
- Variable typing and const handling improvements.
- Improvements to comments.
- Fixes to the pragmas used.
- Removed unneeded variables.
- Whitespace improvements.
- Fixed CRC_USE_GENERIC_FOR_SMALL_INPUTS handling.
- Silenced warnings and removed the need for some #pragmas
The C standards don't allow an empty translation unit which can be
avoided by declaring something, without exporting any symbols.
When I committed f644473a21 I had
a feeling that some specific toolchain somewhere didn't like
empty object files (assembler or maybe "ar" complained) but
I cannot find anything to confirm this now. Quite likely I
remembered nonsense. I leave this here as a note to my future self. :-)
When the generic fast crc64 method is used, then we omit
lzma_crc64_table[][]. Similar to
d9166b52cf, we can avoid compiler warnings
with -Wempty-translation-unit (Clang) or -pedantic (GCC) by creating a
never used typedef instead of an extra symbol.
Before this commit, the following writes "foo" to the
console and deletes the input file:
echo foo | xz > con_xz
xz --suffix=_xz --decompress con_xz
It cannot happen without --suffix because names like con.xz
are also special and so attempting to decompress con.xz
(or compress con to con.xz) will already fail when opening
the input file.
Similar thing is possible when compressing. The following
writes to "nul" and the input file "n" is deleted.
echo foo | xz > n
xz --suffix=ul n
Now xz checks if the destination is a special file before
continuing. DOS/DJGPP version had a check for this but
Windows (and OS/2) didn't.
For compatibility with C23's [[noreturn]], tuklib_attr_noreturn
must be at the beginning of declaration (before "extern" or
"static", and even before any GNU C's __attribute__).
This commit also moves all other function attributes to
the beginning of function declarations. "extern" is kept
at the beginning of a line so the attributes are listed on
separate lines before "extern" or "static".
xrealloc() is obviously incorrect, modern GCC docs even
mention realloc() as an example where this attribute
cannot be used.
liblzma's lzma_alloc() and lzma_alloc_zero() would be
correct uses most of the time but custom allocators
may use a memory pool or otherwise hold the pointer
so aliasing issues could happen in theory.
The xstrdup() case likely was correct but I removed it anyway.
Now there are no __malloc__ attributes left in the code.
The allocations aren't in hot paths so this should make
no practical difference.
This makes no difference for GCC or Clang as they support
GNU C's __attribute__((__noreturn__)) but this helps with MSVC:
- VS 2019 version 16.7 and later support _Noreturn if the
options /std:c11 or /std:c17 are used. This gets handled
with the check for __STDC_VERSION__ >= 201112.
- When MSVC isn't in C11/C17 mode, __declspec(noreturn) is used.
C23 will deprecate _Noreturn (and <stdnoreturn.h>)
for [[noreturn]]. This commit anticipates that but
the final __STDC_VERSION__ value isn't known yet.
Now the two variations of the format strings are created with
a macro, and the whole detection code can be easily disabled
on platforms where thousand separator formatting is known to
not work (MSVC has no support, and on DJGPP 2.05 it can have
problems in some cases).
The argument to vli_ceil4() should always guarantee the return value
is also a valid lzma_vli. Thus the highest three valid lzma_vli values
are invalid arguments. All uses of the function ensure this so the
assert is updated to match this.
This was not a security bug since there was no path to overflow
UINT64_MAX in lzma_index_append() or when it calls index_file_size().
The bug was discovered by a failing assert() in vli_ceil4() when called
from index_file_size() when unpadded_sum (the sum of the compressed size
of current Stream and the unpadded_size parameter) exceeds LZMA_VLI_MAX.
Previously, the unpadded_size parameter was checked to be not greater
than UNPADDED_SIZE_MAX, but no check was done once compressed_base was
added.
This could not have caused an integer overflow in index_file_size() when
called by lzma_index_append(). The calculation for file_size breaks down
into the sum of:
- Compressed base from all previous Streams
- 2 * LZMA_STREAM_HEADER_SIZE (size of the current Streams header and
footer)
- stream_padding (can be set by lzma_index_stream_padding())
- Compressed base from the current Stream
- Unpadded size (parameter to lzma_index_append())
The sum of everything except for Unpadded size must be less than
LZMA_VLI_MAX. This is guarenteed by overflow checks in the functions
that can set these values including lzma_index_stream_padding(),
lzma_index_append(), and lzma_index_cat(). The maximum value for
Unpadded size is enforced by lzma_index_append() to be less than or
equal UNPADDED_SIZE_MAX. Thus, the sum cannot exceed UINT64_MAX since
LZMA_VLI_MAX is half of UINT64_MAX.
Thanks to Joona Kannisto for reporting this.
The "once_" variable was accidentally referred to as just "once". This
prevented building with Vista threads when
HAVE_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE_CONSTRUCTOR was not defined.
signal.h in WASI SDK doesn't currently provide sigprocmask()
or sigset_t. liblzma doesn't need them so this change makes
liblzma and xzdec build against WASI SDK. xz doesn't build yet
and the tests don't either as tuktest needs setjmp() which
isn't (yet?) implemented in WASI SDK.

(The original commit was edited a little by Lasse Collin.)
To workaround Automake lacking Windows resource compiler support, an
empty source file is compiled to overwrite the resource files for static
library builds. Translation units without an external declaration are
not allowed by the C standard and result in a warning when used with
-Wempty-translation-unit (Clang) or -pedantic (GCC).
Clang 16.0.0 and earlier have a bug that the ifunc resolver function
triggers the -Wunused-function warning. The resolver function is static
and only "used" by the __attribute__((__ifunc()__)).
At this time, the bug is still unresolved, but has been reported:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/63957
This is not a problem in GCC.
This further improves the documentation from commit
f36ca7982f. The previous wording of
"supported options" was slightly misleading since the options that are
printed are the ones that are relevant for encoding/decoding. It is not
about which options can or must be specified.
The Memory limit information section described three output
columns when it actually has six. This was reworded to
"multiple" to make it more future proof.
* Moved max_block_list_size from a global to local variable.
* Reworded error message in validate_block_list_filter().
* Removed helper function filter_chain_error().
* Changed 1 << X to 1U << X in many places
The order is now consistent with the order the command line arguments
are documented earlier in the man page. The new order is:
1. --list
2. --info-memory
3. --version
Instead of the previous order:
1. --version
2. --info-memory
3. --list
The --filters-help can be used to help create filter chains with the
--filters and --filtersX options. The message in --long-help is too
short to fully explain the syntax to construct complex filter chains.
In --robot mode, xz will only print the output from liblzma function
lzma_str_list_filters.
The --block-list option description needed updating since the new
--filtersX option changes how it can be used. The new entry for
--filters1=FILTERS ... --filter9=FILTERS was created right after
the --filters option.
If a filter chain is set but not used in --block-list, it introduced
unexpected behavior such as requiring an unneeded amount of memory to
compress, reducing the number of threads in multi-threaded encoding, and
printing an incorrect amount of memory needed to decompress.
This also renames filters_init_mask => filters_used_mask. A filter is
assumed to be used if it is specified in --filtersX until
coder_set_compression_settings() determines which filters are referenced
in --block-list.
When opt_block_size is not used, the Block size for mt encoder is
derived from the minimum of the largest Block specified by
--block-list and the recommended Block size on all filter chains
calculated by lzma_mt_block_size(). This avoids using unnecessary
memory and ensures that all Blocks are large enough for the most memory
needy filter chain.
Previously, only the default filter chain could have its memory usage
adjusted. The filter chains specified with --filtersX were not checked
for memory usage. Now, all used filter chains will be adjusted if
necessary.
The block splitting logic and split_block() function are not needed if
encoders are disabled. This will help slightly reduce the binary size
when built without encoders and allow split_block() to use functions
that require encoders being enabled.
This will only free filter chains created with --filters1-9 since the
default filter chain may be set from a static function variable. The
complexity to free the default filter chain is not worth the burden on
code maintenance.
The new command line options are meant to be combined with --block-list.
They work as an optional extension to --block-list to specify a custom
filter chain for each block listed. The new options allow the creation
of up to 9 reusable filter chains. For instance:
xz --block-list=1:10MiB,3:5MiB,,2:5MiB,1:0 --filters1=delta--lzma2 \
--filters2=x86--lzma2 --filters3=arm64--lzma2
Will create the following blocks:
1. A block of size 10 MiB with filter chain delta, lzma2.
2. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain arm64, lzma2.
3. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain arm64, lzma2.
4. A block of size 5 MiB with filter chain x86, lzma2.
5. A block containing the rest of the file contents with filter chain
delta, lzma2.
This is a little cleaner than the previous implementation of
forget_filter_chain(). It is also more consistent since
lzma_str_to_filters() will always terminate the filter chain so there
is no need to terminate it later in coder_set_compression_settings().
The --filters option uses the new lzma_str_to_filters() function
to convert a string into a full filter chain. Using this option
will reset all previous filters set by --preset, --[filter], or
--filters.
Commit 78704f36e7 added an empty
initializer {} to prevent a warning. The empty initializer is a GNU
extension and results in a build failure on MSVC. The -wpedantic flag
warns about empty initializers.
This change only impacts the compiler warning since it was impossible
for the wait_abs struct in stream_encode_mt() to be used before it was
initialized since mythread_condtime_set() will always be called before
mythread_cond_timedwait().
Since the mythread.h code is different between the POSIX and
Windows versions, this warning was only present on Windows builds.
Thanks to Arthur S for reporting the warning and providing an initial
patch.
In lzma_memcmplen(), the <intrin.h> header file is only included if
_MSC_VER and _M_X64 are both defined but _BitScanForward64() was
previously used if _M_X64 was defined. GCC for MSYS2 defines _M_X64 but
not _MSC_VER so _BitScanForward64() was used without including
<intrin.h>.
Now, lzma_memcmplen() will use __builtin_ctzll() for MSYS2 GCC builds as
expected.
The ifunc method avoids indirection via the function pointer
crc64_func. This works on GNU/Linux and probably on FreeBSD too.
The previous __attribute((__constructor__)) method is kept for
compatibility with ELF platforms which do support ifunc.
The ifunc method has some limitations, for example, building
liblzma with -fsanitize=address will result in segfaults.
The configure option --disable-ifunc must be used for such builds.
Thanks to Hans Jansen for the original patch.
Closes: https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/pull/53
Reword "options required" to "supported options". The previous may have
suggested that the options listed were all required anytime a filter is
used for encoding or decoding. The reword makes this more clear that
adjusting the options is optional.
The lzma_mt_block_size() was previously just an internal function for
the multithreaded .xz encoder. It is used to provide a recommended Block
size for a given filter chain.
This function is helpful to determine the maximum Block size for the
multithreaded .xz encoder when one wants to change the filters between
blocks. Then, this determined Block size can be provided to
lzma_stream_encoder_mt() in the lzma_mt options parameter when
intializing the coder. This requires one to know all the filter chains
they are using before starting to encode (or at least the filter chain
that will need the largest Block size), but that isn't a bad limitation.
Legacy Windows did not need to #include <intrin.h> to use the MSVC
intrinsics. Newer versions likely just issue a warning, but the MSVC
documentation says to include the header file for the intrinsics we use.
GCC and Clang can "pretend" to be MSVC on Windows, so extra checks are
needed in tuklib_integer.h to only include <intrin.h> when it will is
actually needed.
Clang has support for __builtin_clz(), but previously Clang would
fallback to either the MSVC intrinsic or the regular C code. This was
discovered due to a bug where a new version of Clang required the
<intrin.h> header file in order to use the MSVC intrinsics.
Thanks to Anton Kochkov for notifying us about the bug.
The \mainpage command is used in the first block of comments in lzma.h.
This changes the previously nearly empty index.html to use the first
comment block in lzma.h for its contents.
lzma.h is no longer documented separately, but this is for the better
since lzma.h only defined a few macros that users do not need to use.
The individual API header files all have a disclaimer that they should
not be #included directly, so there should be no confusion on the fact
that lzma.h should be the only header used by applications.
Additionally, the note "See ../lzma.h for information about liblzma as
a whole." was removed since lzma.h is now the main page of the
generated HTML and does not have its own page anymore. So it would be
confusing in the HTML version and was only a "nice to have" when
browsing the source files.
Also remove unneeded "sandbox_allowed = false;" as this code
will never be run more than once (making it work with multiple
input files isn't trivial).
The warning causes the exit status to be 2, so this will cause problems
for many scripted use cases for xz. The sandbox usage is already very
limited already, so silently disabling this allows it to be more usable.
If a system has the Capsicum header files but does not actually
implement the system calls, then this would render xz unusable. Instead,
we can check if errno == ENOSYS and not issue a fatal error.
lzma_lzma_preset() does not guarentee that the lzma_options_lzma are
usable in an encoder even if it returns false (success). If liblzma
is built with default configurations, then the options will always be
usable. However if the match finders hc3, hc4, or bt4 are disabled, then
the options may not be usable depending on the preset level requested.
The documentation was updated to reflect this complexity, since this
behavior was unclear before.
All functions now explicitly specify parameter and return values.
The notes and code annotations were moved before the parameter and
return value descriptions for consistency.
Also, the description above lzma_filter_encoder_is_supported() about
not being able to list available filters was removed since
lzma_str_list_filters() will do this.
In the C99 and C17 standards, section 6.5.6 paragraph 8 means that
adding 0 to a null pointer is undefined behavior. As of writing,
"clang -fsanitize=undefined" (Clang 15) diagnoses this. However,
I'm not aware of any compiler that would take advantage of this
when optimizing (Clang 15 included). It's good to avoid this anyway
since compilers might some day infer that pointer arithmetic implies
that the pointer is not NULL. That is, the following foo() would then
unconditionally return 0, even for foo(NULL, 0):
void bar(char *a, char *b);
int foo(char *a, size_t n)
{
bar(a, a + n);
return a == NULL;
}
In contrast to C, C++ explicitly allows null pointer + 0. So if
the above is compiled as C++ then there is no undefined behavior
in the foo(NULL, 0) call.
To me it seems that changing the C standard would be the sane
thing to do (just add one sentence) as it would ensure that a huge
amount of old code won't break in the future. Based on web searches
it seems that a large number of codebases (where null pointer + 0
occurs) are being fixed instead to be future-proof in case compilers
will some day optimize based on it (like making the above foo(NULL, 0)
return 0) which in the worst case will cause security bugs.
Some projects don't plan to change it. For example, gnulib and thus
many GNU tools currently require that null pointer + 0 is defined:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2021-11/msg00000.htmlhttps://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Other-portability-assumptions.html
In XZ Utils null pointer + 0 issue should be fixed after this
commit. This adds a few if-statements and thus branches to avoid
null pointer + 0. These check for size > 0 instead of ptr != NULL
because this way bugs where size > 0 && ptr == NULL will likely
get caught quickly. None of them are in hot spots so it shouldn't
matter for performance.
A little less readable version would be replacing
ptr + offset
with
offset != 0 ? ptr + offset : ptr
or creating a macro for it:
#define my_ptr_add(ptr, offset) \
((offset) != 0 ? ((ptr) + (offset)) : (ptr))
Checking for offset != 0 instead of ptr != NULL allows GCC >= 8.1,
Clang >= 7, and Clang-based ICX to optimize it to the very same code
as ptr + offset. That is, it won't create a branch. So for hot code
this could be a good solution to avoid null pointer + 0. Unfortunately
other compilers like ICC 2021 or MSVC 19.33 (VS2022) will create a
branch from my_ptr_add().

Standardizing each function to always specify parameters and return
values. Also moved the parameters and return values to the end of each
function description.
Use "member" to refer to struct members as that's the term used
by the C standard.
Use lzma_options_delta.dist and such in docs so that in Doxygen's
HTML output they will link to the doc of the struct member.
Clean up a few trailing white spaces too.
It gives C4146 here since unary minus with unsigned integer
is still unsigned (which is the intention here). Doing it
with substraction makes it clearer and avoids the warning.
Thanks to Nathan Moinvaziri for reporting this.
Standardizing each function to always specify parameters and return

A few small things were reworded and long sentences broken up.

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.
