There is no need to make a similar change in configure.ac.
With Autoconf 2.72, the deprecated macro AC_PROG_CC_C99
is an alias for AC_PROG_CC which prefers a C11 compiler.
The C code is from Christian Weisgerber, I merely reordered the OSes.
Then I added the build system checks without testing them.
Also thanks to Brad Smith who submitted a similar patch on GitHub
a few hours after Christian had sent his via email.

This way the version string gets into xzgrep and other scripts
in full and also into liblzma.pc.
For the project() command, a suffixless string is required though.
liblzma_VERSION has never existed in the repository. xz_VERSION from
the project() command was used for liblzma SOVERSION so use xz_VERSION
here too.
The wrong variable did no harm in practice as PROJECT_VERSION
was used as the fallback. It has the same value as xz_VERSION.

This is a mess because liblzma DLL outside Cygwin and MSYS2
is liblzma.dll instead of lzma.dll to avoid a conflict with
lzma.dll from LZMA SDK.
On Cygwin the name was "liblzma-5.dll" while "cyglzma-5.dll"
would have been correct (and match what Libtool produces).
MSYS2 likely was broken too as it uses the "msys-" prefix.
This change has no effect with MinGW-w64 because with that
the "lib" prefix was correct already.
With MSVC builds this is a small breaking change that requires developers
to adjust the library name when linking against liblzma. The liblzma.dll
name is kept as is but the import library and static library are now
lzma.lib instead of liblzma.lib. This is helpful when using pkgconf
because "pkgconf --msvc-syntax --libs liblzma" outputs "lzma.lib"
(it's converted from "-llzma" in liblzma.pc). It would be easy to
keep the liblzma.lib naming but the pkgconf compatibility seems worth
it in the long run. The lzma.lib name is compatible with MinGW-w64
too as -llzma will find also lzma.lib.
vcpkg had been patching CMakeLists.txt this way since 2022 but I
learned this only recently. The reasoning for the patch makes sense,
and while this is a small breaking change with MSVC, it seems like
a decent compromise as it keeps the DLL name the same.

Thanks to Vincent Torri for confirming the naming issue on Cygwin.
One has to pass -DENABLE_X86_ASM=ON to cmake to enable the
CRC assembly code. Autodetection isn't done. Looking at
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR might not work as it comes from uname
unless cross-compilation is done using a CMake toolchain file.
On top of this, if the code is run on modern processors that support
the CLMUL instruction, then the C code should be faster (but then
one should also be using a x86-64 build if possible).
This is disabled by default to match the default in Autotools.
Use -DUSE_DOXYGEN=ON to enable Doxygen usage.
This uses the update-doxygen script, thus this is under if(UNIX)
although Doxygen itself can run on Windows too.
This moves the tests section as is from CMakeLists.txt into
tests/tests.cmake. CMakeLists.txt now includes tests/tests.cmake
if the latter file exists.
Now it's possible to delete the whole "tests" directory and
building with CMake will still work normally, just without
the tests. This way the tests are readily available for those
who want them, and those who won't run the tests anyway have
a straightforward way to ensure that nothing from the "tests"
directory can affect the build process.
This is *NOT* done for security reasons even though the backdoor
relied on the ifunc code. Instead, the reason is that in this
project ifunc provides little benefits but it's quite a bit of
extra code to support it. The only case where ifunc *might* matter
for performance is if the CRC functions are used directly by an
application. In normal compression use it's completely irrelevant.
It doesn't support the __symver__ attribute or __asm__(".symver ...").
The generic symbol versioning can still be used since it only needs
linker support.
Using __attribute__((__no_profile_instrument_function__)) on the ifunc
resolver works around a bug in GCC -fprofile-generate:
it adds profiling code even to ifunc resolvers which can make
the ifunc resolver crash at program startup. This attribute
was not introduced until GCC 7 and Clang 13, so ifunc won't
be used with prior versions of these compilers.
This bug was brought to our attention by:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/925415
And was reported to upstream GCC by:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11411
The previous Linux Landlock feature test assumed that having the
linux/landlock.h header file was enough. The new feature tests also
requires that prctl() and the required Landlock system calls are
supported.
The original code was good enough for supporting GNU/Linux
and a few others but it wasn't very portable.
CMake doesn't support Solaris Studio's -xldscope=hidden.
If it ever does, things should still work with this commit
as Solaris Studio supports not only its own __global but also
the GNU C __attribute__((visibility("default"))). Support for the
attribute was added in 2007 to Sun Studio 12 compiler version 5.9.
-O3 doesn't seem useful for speed but it makes the code bigger.
CMake makes is difficult for users to simply override the
optimization level: CFLAGS / CMAKE_C_FLAGS aren't helpful because
they go before CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE. Of course, users can override
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE directly but then they have to remember to
add also -DNDEBUG to disable assertions.
This commit changes -O3 to -O2 in CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE if and only if
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE cache variable doesn't already exist. So if
a custom value is passed on the command line (or reconfiguring an
already-configured build), the cache variable won't be modified.
In contrast to Automake, skipping of this test when decoders
are disabled is handled at CMake side instead of test_scripts.sh
because CMake-build doesn't create config.h.
Compared to the Autotools-based build, this has simpler handling
for the shell (@POSIX_SHELL@) and extra PATH entry for the scripts
(configure has --enable-path-for-scripts=PREFIX). The simpler
metho should be enough for non-ancient systems and Solaris.
It helps that cmake_install.cmake doesn't parallelize installation
so symlinks can be created so that the target is always known to
exist (a requirement on Windows in some cases).
This bumps the minimum CMake version from 3.13 to 3.14 to use
file(CREATE_LINK ...). It could be made to work on 3.13 by
calling "cmake -E create_symlink" but it's uglier code and
slower in "make install". 3.14 should be a reasonable version
to require nowadays, especially since the Autotools build
is still the primary build system for most OSes.
If gettext tools are available, the .po files listed in po/LINGUAS
are converted using msgfmt. This allows building with translations
directly from xz.git without Autotools.
If gettext tools aren't available, the Autotools-created .gmo files
in the "po" directory will be used. This allows CMake-based build
to use translations from Autotools-generated tarball.
If translation support is found (Intl_FOUND) but both the
gettext tools and the pre-generated .gmo files are missing,
then "make" will fail.
Landlock is now always used just like pledge(2) is: first in more
permissive mode and later (under certain common conditions) in
a strict mode that doesn't allow opening more files.
I put pledge(2) first in sandbox.c because it's the simplest API
to use and still somewhat fine-grained for basic applications.
So it's the simplest thing to understand for anyone reading sandbox.c.
Even though the proper name for the architecture is aarch64, this
project uses ARM64 throughout. So the rename is for consistency.
Additionally, crc32_arm64.h was slightly refactored for the following
changes:
* Added MSVC, FreeBSD, and macOS support in
is_arch_extension_supported().
* crc32_arch_optimized() now checks the size when aligning the
buffer.
* crc32_arch_optimized() loop conditions were slightly modified to
avoid both decrementing the size and incrementing the buffer
pointer.
* Use the intrinsic wrappers defined in <arm_acle.h> because GCC and
Clang name them differently.
* Minor spacing and comment changes.
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.
