Jia Tan c5f6d79cc9 Build: Add support for ARM64 CRC32 instruction detection.
This adds --enable-arm64-crc32/--disable-arm64-crc32 (enabled by
default) for using the ARM64 CRC32 instruction. This can be disabled if
one knows the binary will never need to run on an ARM64 machine
with this instruction extension.

Chenxi Mao 849d0f282a Speed up CRC32 calculation on ARM64
The CRC32 instructions in ARM64 can calculate the CRC32 result
for 8 bytes in a single operation, making the use of ARM64
instructions much faster compared to the general CRC32 algorithm.

Optimized CRC32 will be enabled if ARM64 has CRC extension
running on Linux.

Lasse Collin 93de7e751d Move doc/logo/xz-logo.png to "doc" and Doxygen footer to "doxygen".
The footer isn't a complete HTML file so having it in the doxygen
directory is a tiny bit clearer.

Jia Tan 00fa01698d README: Add COPYING.CC-BY-SA-4.0 entry to section 1.1.
The Overall documentation section (1.1) table spacing had to be adjusted
since the filename was very long.

Jia Tan 31293ae707 Doxygen: Added the XZ logo and copyright information.
The PROJECT_LOGO field is now used to include the XZ logo. The footer
of each page now lists the copyright information instead of the default
footer. The license is also copied to statisfy the copyright and so the
link in the documentation can be local.

Lasse Collin 6daa4d0ea4 xz: Use threaded mode by defaut (as if --threads=0 was used).
This hopefully does more good than bad:

  + It's faster by default.

  + Only the threaded compressor creates files that
    can be decompressed in threaded mode.

  - Compression ratio is worse, usually not too much though.
    When it matters, -T1 must be used.

  - Memory usage increases.

  - Scripts that assume single-threaded mode but don't use -T1 will
    possibly use too much resources, for example, if they run
    multiple xz processes in parallel to compress multiple files.

  - Output from single-threaded and multi-threaded compressors
    differ but such changes could happen for other reasons too
    (they just haven't happened since 5.0.0).

Lasse Collin 50255feeaa liblzma: RISC-V filter: Use byte-by-byte access.
Not all RISC-V processors support fast unaligned access so
it's better to read only one byte in the main loop. This can
be faster even on x86-64 when compared to reading 32 bits at
a time as half the time the address is only 16-bit aligned.

The downside is larger code size on archs that do support
fast unaligned access.

Jia Tan db5eb5f563 xz: Update xz -lvv for RISC-V filter.
Version 5.6.0 will be shown, even though upcoming alphas and betas
will be able to support this filter. 5.6.0 looks nicer in the output and
people shouldn't be encouraged to use an unstable version in production
in any way.

Lasse Collin 4f518c1b6b liblzma: CRC: Remove crc_always_inline, use lzma_always_inline instead.
Now crc_simd_body() in crc_x86_clmul.h is only called once
in a translation unit, we no longer need to be so cautious
about ensuring the always-inline behavior.

Lasse Collin 66f080e801 liblzma: Rename arch-specific CRC functions and macros.
CRC_CLMUL was split to CRC_ARCH_OPTIMIZED and CRC_X86_CLMUL.
CRC_ARCH_OPTIMIZED is defined when an arch-optimized version is used.
Currently the x86 CLMUL implementations are the only arch-optimized
versions, and these also use the CRC_x86_CLMUL macro to tell when
crc_x86_clmul.h needs to be included.

is_clmul_supported() was renamed to is_arch_extension_supported().
crc32_clmul() and crc64_clmul() were renamed to
crc32_arch_optimized() and crc64_arch_optimized().
This way the names make sense with arch-specific non-CLMUL
implementations as well.

Lasse Collin 419f55f9df liblzma: Avoid extern lzma_crc32_clmul() and lzma_crc64_clmul().
A CLMUL-only build will have the crcxx_clmul() inlined into
lzma_crcxx(). Previously a jump to the extern lzma_crcxx_clmul()
was needed. Notes about shared liblzma on ELF platforms:

  - On platforms that support ifunc and -fvisibility=hidden, this
    was silly because CLMUL-only build would have that single extra
    jump instruction of extra overhead.

  - On platforms that support neither -fvisibility=hidden nor linker
    version script (liblzma*.map), jumping to lzma_crcxx_clmul()
    would go via PLT so a few more instructions of overhead (still
    not a big issue but silly nevertheless).

There was a downside with static liblzma too: if an application only
needs lzma_crc64(), static linking would make the linker include the
CLMUL code for both CRC32 and CRC64 from crc_x86_clmul.o even though
the CRC32 code wouldn't be needed, thus increasing code size of the
executable (assuming that -ffunction-sections isn't used).

Also, now compilers are likely to inline crc_simd_body()
even if they don't support the always_inline attribute
(or MSVC's __forceinline). Quite possibly all compilers
that build the code do support such an attribute. But now
it likely isn't a problem even if the attribute wasn't supported.

Now all x86-specific stuff is in crc_x86_clmul.h. If other archs
The other archs can then have their own headers with their own
is_clmul_supported() and crcxx_clmul().

Another bonus is that the build system doesn't need to care if
crc_clmul.c is needed.

is_clmul_supported() stays as inline function as it's not needed
when doing a CLMUL-only build (avoids a warning about unused function).

Lasse Collin cd64dd70d5 liblzma: Use 8-byte method in memcmplen.h on ARM64.
It requires fast unaligned access to 64-bit integers
and a fast instruction to count leading zeros in
a 64-bit integer (__builtin_ctzll()). This perhaps
should be enabled on some other archs too.

Thanks to Chenxi Mao for the original patch:
https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/pull/75 (the first commit)
According to the numbers there, this may improve encoding
speed by about 3-5 %.

This enables the 8-byte method on MSVC ARM64 too which
should work but wasn't tested.
2023-12-28 17:17:39 +02:00
Lasse Collin 12c90c00f0 liblzma: Check also for __clang__ in memcmplen.h.
This change hopefully makes no practical difference as Clang
likely was detected via __GNUC__ or _MSC_VER already.

Jia Tan 710cbc186c xz: Add a comment to Capsicum sandbox setup.
This comment is repeated in xzdec.c to help remind us why all the

Jia Tan 4e1c695676 Docs: Update --enable-sandbox option in INSTALL.
xzdec now also uses the sandbox when its configured.
2023-12-21 20:53:27 +08:00
Jia Tan ebddf20214 CMake: Move sandbox detection outside of xz section.
The sandbox is now enabled for xzdec as well, so it no longer belongs
in just the xz section. xz and xzdec are always built, except for older
MSVC versions, so there isn't a need to conditionally show the sandbox
configuration. CMake will do a little unecessary work on older MSVC
versions that can't build xz or xzdec, but this is a very small
downside.
2023-12-21 20:53:23 +08:00
Jia Tan 5feb09266f Build: Allow sandbox to be configured for just xzdec.
If xz is disabled, then xzdec can still use the sandbox.
2023-12-20 22:43:44 +08:00
Jia Tan d74fb5f060 xzdec: Add sandbox support for Pledge, Capsicum, and Landlock.
A very strict sandbox is used when the last file is decompressed. The
likely most common use case of xzdec is to decompress a single file.
The Pledge sandbox is applied to the entire process with slightly more
relaxed promises, until the last file is processed.

Thanks to Christian Weisgerber for the initial patch adding Pledge
sandboxing.

Jia Tan b34b6a9912 liblzma: Initialize lzma_lz_encoder pointers with NULL.
This fixes the recent change to lzma_lz_encoder that used memzero
instead of the NULL constant. On some compilers the NULL constant
(always 0) may not equal the NULL pointer (this only needs to guarentee
to not point to valid memory address).

Later code compares the pointers to the NULL pointer so we must
initialize them with the NULL pointer instead of 0 to guarentee
code correctness.
