XZ Utils To-Do List
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
Known bugs
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
The test suite is incomplete.
|
||||
|
||||
XZ Utils compress some files significantly worse than LZMA Utils.
|
||||
This is due to faster compression presets used by XZ Utils, and
|
||||
can often be worked around by using "xz --extreme". With some files
|
||||
--extreme isn't enough though: it's most likely with files that
|
||||
compress extremely well, so going from compression ratio of 0.003
|
||||
to 0.004 means big relative increase in the compressed file size.
|
||||
|
||||
tuklib_exit() doesn't block signals => EINTR is possible.
|
||||
|
||||
If liblzma has created threads and fork() gets called, liblzma
|
||||
code will break in the child process unless it calls exec() and
|
||||
doesn't touch liblzma.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Missing features
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Add support for storing metadata in .xz files. A preliminary
|
||||
idea is to create a new Stream type for metadata. When both
|
||||
metadata and data are wanted in the same .xz file, two or more
|
||||
Streams would be concatenated.
|
||||
|
||||
The state stored in lzma_stream should be cloneable, which would
|
||||
be mostly useful when using a preset dictionary in LZMA2, but
|
||||
it may have other uses too. Compare to deflateCopy() in zlib.
|
||||
|
||||
Adjust dictionary size when the input file size is known.
|
||||
Maybe do this only if an option is given.
|
||||
|
||||
xz doesn't support copying extended attributes, access control
|
||||
lists etc. from source to target file.
|
||||
|
||||
Multithreaded compression:
|
||||
- Reduce memory usage of the current method.
|
||||
- Implement threaded match finders.
|
||||
- Implement pigz-style threading in LZMA2.
|
||||
|
||||
Buffer-to-buffer coding could use less RAM (especially when
|
||||
decompressing LZMA1 or LZMA2).
|
||||
|
||||
I/O library is not implemented (similar to gzopen() in zlib).
|
||||
It will be a separate library that supports uncompressed, .gz,
|
||||
.bz2, .lzma, and .xz files.
|
||||
|
||||
Support changing lzma_options_lzma.mode with lzma_filters_update().
|
||||
|
||||
Support LZMA_FULL_FLUSH for lzma_stream_decoder() to stop at
|
||||
Block and Stream boundaries.
|
||||
|
||||
Error codes from lzma_code() aren't very specific. A more detailed
|
||||
error message (string) could be provided too. It could be returned
|
||||
by a new function or use a currently-reserved member of lzma_stream.
|
||||
|
||||
Make it possible to adjust LZMA2 options in the middle of a Block
|
||||
so that the encoding speed vs. compression ratio can be optimized
|
||||
when the compressed data is streamed over network.
|
||||
|
||||
Improved BCJ filters. The current filters are small but they aren't
|
||||
so great when compressing binary packages that contain various file
|
||||
types. Specifically, they make things worse if there are static
|
||||
libraries or Linux kernel modules. The filtering could also be
|
||||
more effective (without getting overly complex), for example,
|
||||
streamable variant BCJ2 from 7-Zip could be implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
Filter that autodetects specific data types in the input stream
|
||||
and applies appropriate filters for the corrects parts of the input.
|
||||
Perhaps combine this with the BCJ filter improvement point above.
|
||||
|
||||
Long-range LZ77 method as a separate filter or as a new LZMA2
|
||||
match finder.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Documentation
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
More tutorial programs are needed for liblzma.
|
||||
|
||||
Document the LZMA1 and LZMA2 algorithms.
