as the compression name when no other read filter bid. Add some
assertions to various tests to verify that read filters are properly
setting the textual name as well as the compression code.
doesn't need to compensate for this situation.
While here, fix a minor longstanding bug that empty tar archives
(which begin with at least 512 zero bytes) never properly reported
their format. In particular, this fixes the output of:
bsdtar tvvf /dev/zero
And, of course, a new test to verify that libarchive correctly
recognizes the format of such files.
* libarchive_test program exercises many of the core features
* Refactored old "read_extract" into new "archive_write_disk", which
uses archive_write methods to put entries onto disk. In particular,
you can now use archive_write_disk to create objects on disk
without having an archive available.
* Pushed some security checks from bsdtar down into libarchive, where
they can be better optimized.
* Rearchitected the logic for creating objects on disk to reduce
the number of system calls. Several common cases now use a
minimum number of system calls.
* Virtualized some internal interfaces to provide a clearer separation
of read and write handling and make it simpler to override key
methods.
* New "empty" format reader.
* Corrected return types (this ABI breakage required the "2.0" version bump)
* Many bug fixes.
