Lasse Collin 5dcffdbcc2 liblzma: SHA-256: Optimize the Maj macro slightly.
The Maj macro is used where multiple things are added
together, so making Maj a sum of two expressions allows
some extra freedom for the compiler to schedule the
instructions.

I learned this trick from
<http://www.hackersdelight.org/corres.txt>.

Lasse Collin a9477d1e0c liblzma: SHA-256: Optimize the way rotations are done.
This looks weird because the rotations become sequential,
but it helps quite a bit on both 32-bit and 64-bit x86:

  - It requires fewer instructions on two-operand
    instruction sets like x86.

  - It requires one register less which matters especially
    on 32-bit x86.

I hope this doesn't hurt other archs.

I didn't invent this idea myself, but I don't remember where
I saw it first.

Lasse Collin 5a76c7c8ee liblzma: SHA-256: Remove the GCC #pragma that became unneeded.
The unrolling in the previous commit should avoid the
situation where a compiler may think that an uninitialized
variable might be accessed.

Lasse Collin 9a096f8e57 liblzma: SHA-256: Unroll a little more.
This way a branch isn't needed for each operation
to choose between blk0 and blk2, and still the code
doesn't grow as much as it would with full unrolling.

Lasse Collin bc7650d87b liblzma: SHA-256: Do the byteswapping without a temporary buffer. 2014-08-03 19:56:43 +03:00
Lasse Collin 544aaa3d13 liblzma: Use lzma_memcmplen() in normal mode of LZMA.
Two locations were not changed yet because the simplest change
assumes that the initial "len" may be greater than "limit".
2014-07-25 22:38:28 +03:00
Lasse Collin f48fce093b liblzma: Simplify LZMA fast mode code by using memcmp(). 2014-07-25 22:30:38 +03:00
Lasse Collin 6bf5308e34 liblzma: Use lzma_memcmplen() in fast mode of LZMA. 2014-07-25 22:29:49 +03:00
Lasse Collin 353212137e Update THANKS. 2014-07-25 21:16:23 +03:00
Lasse Collin 5db75054e9 liblzma: Use lzma_memcmplen() in the match finders.
This doesn't change the match finder output.
2014-07-25 21:15:07 +03:00
Lasse Collin e1c8f1d01f liblzma: Add lzma_memcmplen() for fast memory comparison.
This commit just adds the function. Its uses will be in
separate commits.

This hasn't been tested much yet and it's perhaps a bit early
to commit it but if there are bugs they should get found quite
quickly.

Thanks to Jun I Jin from Intel for help and for pointing out
that string comparison needs to be optimized in liblzma.

Thanks to Trần Ngọc Quân.

Lasse Collin 17215f751c xz: Update the help message of a few options.
Updated: --threads, --block-size, and --block-list
Added: --flush-timeout
2014-06-29 20:54:14 +03:00
Lasse Collin 96864a6ddf xz: Use lzma_cputhreads() instead of own copy of tuklib_cpucores(). 2014-06-18 22:07:06 +03:00
Lasse Collin a115cc3748 liblzma: Add lzma_cputhreads(). 2014-06-18 22:04:24 +03:00
Lasse Collin 3ce3e79769 xz: Check for filter chain compatibility for --flush-timeout.
This avoids LZMA_PROG_ERROR from lzma_code() with filter chains
that don't support LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH.
2014-06-18 19:11:52 +03:00
Lasse Collin 381ac14ed7 xzgrep: List xzgrep_expected_output in tests/Makefile.am. 2014-06-13 19:21:54 +03:00
Lasse Collin 4244b65b06 xzgrep: Improve the test script.
Now it should be close to the functionality of the original
version by Pavel Raiskup.
2014-06-13 18:58:22 +03:00
Lasse Collin 1e60f2c0a0 xzgrep: Add a test for the previous fix.
This is a simplified version of Pavel Raiskup's
original patch.
2014-06-11 21:03:25 +03:00
Lasse Collin ceca379017 xzgrep: exit 0 when at least one file matches.
Mimic the original grep behavior and return exit_success when
at least one xz compressed file matches given pattern.

Original bugreport:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1108085

Thanks to Pavel Raiskup for the patch.

Lasse Collin 8c19216bac xz: Force single-threaded mode when --flush-timeout is used. 2014-06-09 21:21:24 +03:00
Lasse Collin 87f1a24810 Update THANKS. 2014-05-25 22:05:39 +03:00
Lasse Collin da1718f266 liblzma: Use lzma_alloc_zero() in LZ encoder initialization.
This avoids a memzero() call for a newly-allocated memory,
which can be expensive when encoding small streams with
an over-sized dictionary.

To avoid using lzma_alloc_zero() for memory that doesn't
need to be zeroed, lzma_mf.son is now allocated separately,
which requires handling it separately in normalize() too.

Thanks to Vincenzo Innocente for reporting the problem.
2014-05-25 21:45:56 +03:00
Lasse Collin 28af24e9cf liblzma: Add the internal function lzma_alloc_zero(). 2014-05-25 19:25:57 +03:00
Lasse Collin ed9ac85822 xz: Fix uint64_t vs. size_t which broke 32-bit build.
Thanks to Christian Hesse.

Lasse Collin d716acdae3 Docs: Update comments to refer to lzma/lzma12.h in example programs. 2014-05-04 11:09:11 +03:00
Lasse Collin 4d5b7b3fda liblzma: Rename the private API header lzma/lzma.h to lzma/lzma12.h.
It can be confusing that two header files have the same name.
The public API file is still lzma.h.
2014-05-04 11:07:17 +03:00
Lasse Collin 1555a9c566 Build: Fix the combination of --disable-xzdec --enable-lzmadec.
In this case "make install" could fail if the man page directory
didn't already exist at the destination. If it did exist, a
dangling symlink was created there. Now the link is omitted
instead. This isn't the best fix but it's better than the old
behavior.
2014-04-25 17:53:42 +03:00
Lasse Collin 56056571df Build: Add --disable-doc to configure. 2014-04-25 17:44:26 +03:00
Lasse Collin 6de61d8721 Update INSTALL.
Add a note about failing "make check". The source of
the problem should be fixed in libtool (if it really is
a libtool bug and not mine) but I'm unable to spend time
on that for now. Thanks to Nelson H. F. Beebe for reporting
the issue.

Add a note about a possible need to run "ldconfig" after
"make install".

Lasse Collin 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
no problem in practice if using GCC since people have built xz
with GCC (without patching xz), but renaming the variable cannot
hurt either.

Thanks to Mark Ashley.

Lasse Collin 5876ca27da Docs: Add example program for threaded encoding.
I didn't add -DLZMA_UNSTABLE to Makefile so one has to
specify it manually as long as LZMA_UNSTABLE is needed.
2014-01-29 20:19:41 +02:00
Lasse Collin 9494fb6d0f liblzma: Fix lzma_mt.preset not working with lzma_stream_encoder_mt().
It read the filter chain from a wrong variable.

Lasse Collin 673a4cb53d liblzma: Fix typo in a comment. 2014-01-20 11:20:40 +02:00
Lasse Collin ad96a871a1 Windows: Add config.h for building liblzma with MSVC 2013.
This is for building liblzma. Building xz tool too requires
a little more work. Maybe it will be supported, but for most
MSVC users it's enough to be able to build liblzma.

C99 support in MSVC 2013 is almost usable which is a big
improvement over earlier versions. It's "almost" because
there's a dumb bug that breaks mixed declarations after
an "if" statements unless the "if" statement uses braces:

https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/808650/visual-studio-2013-c99-compiler-bug
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/808472/c99-support-of-mixed-declarations-and-statements-fails-with-certain-types-and-constructs

Hopefully it will get fixed. Then liblzma should be
compilable with MSVC 2013 without patching.

Lasse Collin 69fd4e1c93 Windows: Add MSVC defines for inline and restrict keywords. 2014-01-12 17:04:33 +02:00
Lasse Collin a19d9e8575 liblzma: Avoid C99 compound literal arrays.
MSVC 2013 doesn't like them. Maybe they aren't so good
for readability either since many aren't used to them.
2014-01-12 16:44:52 +02:00
Lasse Collin e28528f1c8 liblzma: Remove a useless C99ism from sha256.c.
Unsurprisingly it makes no difference in compiled output.
2014-01-12 12:50:30 +02:00
Lasse Collin 5ad1effc45 xz: Fix use of wrong variable.
Since the only call to suffix_set() uses optarg
as the argument, fixing this bug doesn't change
the behavior of the program.

Thanks to Tomer Chachamu.

Lasse Collin d1cd8b1cb8 xz: Update the man page about --block-size and --block-list. 2013-11-12 16:38:57 +02:00
Lasse Collin 76be7c612e Update THANKS. 2013-11-12 16:30:53 +02:00
Lasse Collin 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.
