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.
When the compiler supports __attribute__((__constructor__))
mythread_once() is never used, even with --enable-small. A configuration
with win95 threads and --enable-small will compile and be thread safe so
it can be allowed.
This isn't a very common configuration since MSVC does not support
__attribute__((__constructor__)), but MINGW32 and CLANG32 environments
for MSYS2 can use win95 threads and have
__attribute__((__constructor__)) support.
The "once_" variable was accidentally referred to as just "once". This
prevented building with Vista threads when
HAVE_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE_CONSTRUCTOR was not defined.
The .codespellrc allows setting default options to avoid false positive
matches, set additional dictionaries, etc. For now, codespell can be
used locally before committing doc and comment changes.
It should help prevent silly errors and fix up commits in the future.
groff defaults to SGR escapes. Using -P-c passes -c to grotty
which restores the old behavior. Perhaps there is a better way to
get pure plain text output but this works for now.
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 CMake build will try to create broken symlinks on Unix and Unix-like
platforms. Cygwin and MSYS2 are Unix-like, but may not be able to create
broken symlinks. The value of the CYGWIN or MSYS environment variables
determine if broken symlinks are valid.
The default for MSYS2 does not allow for broken symlinks, so the CMake
build has been broken for MSYS2 since commit
80a1a8bb83.
All of the MSYS2 environments need make, and it does not come with the
toolchain package. The toolchain package will install the needed
compiler toolchains since without this package CMake cannot properly
generate the Makefiles.
The default for many of the MSYS2 environments is for CMake to create
Ninja build files. This would complicate the build script since we would
need a different command to run the tests. Its simpler to always use
Unix Makefiles so that "make test" is always a usable target for
testing.
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).
Only a subset of the tests run by the Linux and MacOS Autotools builds
are run. The most interesting tests are the ones that disable threads,
encoders, and decoders.
The Windows runner will only be run manually since these tests will
likely take much longer than the Linux and MacOS runners. This runner
should be used before merging any large features and before releases.
Currently the clang64 environment fails to due to a warning and
-Werror is enabled for the CI tests. This is still an early version
since the CMake build can be done for MSVC and optionally each of the
MSYS2 environments. GitHub does not allow manually running the CI tests
unless the workflow is checked on the default branch so checking in a
minimum version is a good idea.
Thanks to Arthur S for the original proposing the original patch.

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.
