 +# Welcome to libarchive!
 +
 +The libarchive project develops a portable, efficient C library that
 +can read and write streaming archives in a variety of formats.  It
 +also includes implementations of the common `tar`, `cpio`, and `zcat`
 +command-line tools that use the libarchive library.
 +
 +## Questions?  Issues?
 +
 +* https://www.libarchive.org is the home for ongoing
 +  libarchive development, including documentation,
 +  and links to the libarchive mailing lists.
 +* To report an issue, use the issue tracker at
 +  https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues
 +* To submit an enhancement to libarchive, please
 +  submit a pull request via GitHub: 
https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pulls
 +
 +## Contents of the Distribution
 +
 +This distribution bundle includes the following major components:
 +
 +* **libarchive**: a library for reading and writing streaming archives
 +* **tar**: the 'bsdtar' program is a full-featured 'tar' implementation built 
on libarchive
 +* **cpio**: the 'bsdcpio' program is a different interface to essentially the 
same functionality
 +* **cat**: the 'bsdcat' program is a simple replacement tool for zcat, bzcat, 
xzcat, and such
 +* **unzip**: the 'bsdunzip' program is a simple replacement tool for 
Info-ZIP's unzip
 +* **examples**: Some small example programs that you may find useful.
 +* **examples/minitar**: a compact sample demonstrating use of libarchive.
 +* **contrib**:  Various items sent to me by third parties; please contact the 
authors with any questions.
 +
 +The top-level directory contains the following information files:
 +
 +* **NEWS** - highlights of recent changes
 +* **COPYING** - what you can do with this
 +* **INSTALL** - installation instructions
 +* **README** - this file
 +* **CMakeLists.txt** - input for "cmake" build tool, see INSTALL
 +* **configure** - configuration script, see INSTALL for details.  If your 
copy of the source lacks a `configure` script, you can try to construct it by 
running the script in `build/autogen.sh` (or use `cmake`).
 +
 +The following files in the top-level directory are used by the 'configure' 
script:
 +
 +* `Makefile.am`, `aclocal.m4`, `configure.ac` - used to build this 
distribution, only needed by maintainers
 +* `Makefile.in`, `config.h.in` - templates used by configure script
 +
 +## Documentation
 +
 +In addition to the informational articles and documentation
 +in the online [libarchive 
Wiki](https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/wiki),
 +the distribution also includes a number of manual pages:
 +
 + * bsdtar.1 explains the use of the bsdtar program
 + * bsdcpio.1 explains the use of the bsdcpio program
 + * bsdcat.1 explains the use of the bsdcat program
 + * libarchive.3 gives an overview of the library as a whole
 + * archive_read.3, archive_write.3, archive_write_disk.3, and
 +   archive_read_disk.3 provide detailed calling sequences for the read
 +   and write APIs
 + * archive_entry.3 details the "struct archive_entry" utility class
 + * archive_internals.3 provides some insight into libarchive's
 +   internal structure and operation.
 + * libarchive-formats.5 documents the file formats supported by the library
 + * cpio.5, mtree.5, and tar.5 provide detailed information about these
 +   popular archive formats, including hard-to-find details about
 +   modern cpio and tar variants.
 +
 +The manual pages above are provided in the 'doc' directory in
 +a number of different formats.
 +
 +You should also read the copious comments in `archive.h` and the
 +source code for the sample programs for more details.  Please let us
 +know about any errors or omissions you find.
 +
 +## Supported Formats
 +
 +Currently, the library automatically detects and reads the following formats:
 +
 +  * Old V7 tar archives
 +  * POSIX ustar
 +  * GNU tar format (including GNU long filenames, long link names, and sparse 
files)
 +  * Solaris 9 extended tar format (including ACLs)
 +  * POSIX pax interchange format
 +  * POSIX octet-oriented cpio
 +  * SVR4 ASCII cpio
 +  * Binary cpio (big-endian or little-endian)
 +  * PWB binary cpio
 +  * ISO9660 CD-ROM images (with optional Rockridge or Joliet extensions)
 +  * ZIP archives (with uncompressed or "deflate" compressed entries, 
including support for encrypted Zip archives)
 +  * ZIPX archives (with support for bzip2, zstd, ppmd8, lzma and xz 
compressed entries)
 +  * GNU and BSD 'ar' archives
 +  * 'mtree' format
 +  * 7-Zip archives (including archives that use zstandard compression)
 +  * Microsoft CAB format
 +  * LHA and LZH archives
 +  * RAR and RAR 5.0 archives (with some limitations due to RAR's proprietary 
status)
 +  * WARC archives
 +  * XAR archives
 +
 +The library also detects and handles any of the following before evaluating 
the archive:
 +
 +  * uuencoded files
 +  * files with RPM wrapper
 +  * gzip compression
 +  * bzip2 compression
 +  * compress/LZW compression
 +  * lzma, lzip, and xz compression
 +  * lz4 compression
 +  * lzop compression
 +  * zstandard compression
 +
 +The library can create archives in any of the following formats:
 +
 +  * POSIX ustar
 +  * POSIX pax interchange format
 +  * "restricted" pax format, which will create ustar archives except for
 +    entries that require pax extensions (for long filenames, ACLs, etc).
 +  * Old GNU tar format
 +  * Old V7 tar format
 +  * POSIX octet-oriented cpio
 +  * SVR4 "newc" cpio
 +  * Binary cpio (little-endian)
 +  * PWB binary cpio
 +  * shar archives
 +  * ZIP archives (with uncompressed or "deflate" compressed entries)
 +  * ZIPX archives (with bzip2, zstd, lzma or xz compressed entries)
 +  * GNU and BSD 'ar' archives
 +  * 'mtree' format
 +  * ISO9660 format
 +  * 7-Zip archives (including archives that use zstandard compression)
 +  * WARC archives
 +  * XAR archives
 +
 +When creating archives, the result can be filtered with any of the following:
 +
 +  * uuencode
 +  * base64
 +  * gzip compression
 +  * bzip2 compression
 +  * compress/LZW compression
 +  * lzma, lzip, and xz compression
 +  * lz4 compression
 +  * lzop compression
 +  * zstandard compression
 +
 +## Notes about the Library Design
 +
 +The following notes address many of the most common
 +questions we are asked about libarchive:
 +
 +* This is a heavily stream-oriented system.  That means that
 +  it is optimized to read or write the archive in a single
 +  pass from beginning to end.  For example, this allows
 +  libarchive to process archives too large to store on disk
 +  by processing them on-the-fly as they are read from or
 +  written to a network or tape drive.  This also makes
 +  libarchive useful for tools that need to produce
 +  archives on-the-fly (such as webservers that provide
 +  archived contents of a users account).
 +
 +* In-place modification and random access to the contents
 +  of an archive are not directly supported.  For some formats,
 +  this is not an issue: For example, tar.gz archives are not
 +  designed for random access.  In some other cases, libarchive
 +  can re-open an archive and scan it from the beginning quickly
 +  enough to provide the needed abilities even without true
 +  random access.  Of course, some applications do require true
 +  random access; those applications should consider alternatives
 +  to libarchive.
 +
 +* The library is designed to be extended with new compression and
 +  archive formats.  The only requirement is that the format be
 +  readable or writable as a stream and that each archive entry be
 +  independent.  There are articles on the libarchive Wiki explaining
 +  how to extend libarchive.
 +
 +* On read, compression and format are always detected automatically.
 +
 +* The same API is used for all formats; it should be very
 +  easy for software using libarchive to transparently handle
 +  any of libarchive's archiving formats.
 +
 +* Libarchive's automatic support for decompression can be used
 +  without archiving by explicitly selecting the "raw" and "empty"
 +  formats.
 +
 +* I've attempted to minimize static link pollution.  If you don't
 +  explicitly invoke a particular feature (such as support for a
 +  particular compression or format), it won't get pulled in to
 +  statically-linked programs.  In particular, if you don't explicitly
 +  enable a particular compression or decompression support, you won't
 +  need to link against the corresponding compression or decompression
 +  libraries.  This also reduces the size of statically-linked
 +  binaries in environments where that matters.
 +
- * The library is generally _thread safe_ depending on the platform:
++* The library is generally _thread-safe_ depending on the platform:
 +  it does not define any global variables of its own.  However, some
 +  platforms do not provide fully thread-safe versions of key C library
 +  functions.  On those platforms, libarchive will use the non-thread-safe
 +  functions.  Patches to improve this are of great interest to us.
 +
 +* The function `archive_write_disk_header()` is _not_ thread safe on
 +  POSIX machines and could lead to security issue resulting in world
 +  writeable directories.  Thus it must be mutexed by the calling code.
 +  This is due to calling `umask(oldumask = umask(0))`, which sets the
 +  umask for the whole process to 0 for a short time frame.
 +  In case other thread calls the same function in parallel, it might
 +  get interrupted by it and cause the executable to use umask=0 for the
 +  remaining execution.
 +  This will then lead to implicitly created directories to have 777
 +  permissions without sticky bit.
 +
 +* In particular, libarchive's modules to read or write a directory
 +  tree do use `chdir()` to optimize the directory traversals.  This
 +  can cause problems for programs that expect to do disk access from
 +  multiple threads.  Of course, those modules are completely
 +  optional and you can use the rest of libarchive without them.
 +
- * The library is _not_ thread aware, however.  It does no locking
++* The library is _not_ thread-aware, however.  It does no locking
 +  or thread management of any kind.  If you create a libarchive
 +  object and need to access it from multiple threads, you will
 +  need to provide your own locking.
 +
 +* On read, the library accepts whatever blocks you hand it.
 +  Your read callback is free to pass the library a byte at a time
 +  or mmap the entire archive and give it to the library at once.
 +  On write, the library always produces correctly-blocked output.
 +
 +* The object-style approach allows you to have multiple archive streams
 +  open at once.  bsdtar uses this in its "@archive" extension.
 +
 +* The archive itself is read/written using callback functions.
 +  You can read an archive directly from an in-memory buffer or
 +  write it to a socket, if you wish.  There are some utility
 +  functions to provide easy-to-use "open file," etc, capabilities.
 +
 +* The read/write APIs are designed to allow individual entries
 +  to be read or written to any data source:  You can create
 +  a block of data in memory and add it to a tar archive without
 +  first writing a temporary file.  You can also read an entry from
 +  an archive and write the data directly to a socket.  If you want
 +  to read/write entries to disk, there are convenience functions to
 +  make this especially easy.
 +
 +* Note: The "pax interchange format" is a POSIX standard extended tar
 +  format that should be used when the older _ustar_ format is not
 +  appropriate.  It has many advantages over other tar formats
 +  (including the legacy GNU tar format) and is widely supported by
 +  current tar implementations.
