+DESCRIPTION
+ These functions create and manipulate data objects that represent entries
+ within an archive. You can think of a struct archive_entry as a heavy-
+ duty version of struct stat: it includes everything from struct stat plus
+ associated pathname, textual group and user names, etc. These objects
+ are used by libarchive(3) to represent the metadata associated with a
+ particular entry in an archive.
+
+ Create and Destroy
+ There are functions to allocate, destroy, clear, and copy archive_entry
+ objects:
+ archive_entry_clear()
+ Erases the object, resetting all internal fields to the same
+ state as a newly-created object. This is provided to allow you
+ to quickly recycle objects without thrashing the heap.
+ archive_entry_clone()
+ A deep copy operation; all text fields are duplicated.
+ archive_entry_free()
+ Releases the struct archive_entry object.
+ archive_entry_new()
+ Allocate and return a blank struct archive_entry object.
+
+ Set and Get Functions
+ Most of the functions here set or read entries in an object. Such func-
+ tions have one of the following forms:
+ archive_entry_set_XXXX()
+ Stores the provided data in the object. In particular, for
+ strings, the pointer is stored, not the referenced string.
+ archive_entry_copy_XXXX()
+ As above, except that the referenced data is copied into the
+ object.
+ archive_entry_XXXX()
+ Returns the specified data. In the case of strings, a const-
+ qualified pointer to the string is returned.
+ String data can be set or accessed as wide character strings or normal
+ char strings. The functions that use wide character strings are suffixed
+ with _w. Note that these are different representations of the same data:
+ For example, if you store a narrow string and read the corresponding wide
+ string, the object will transparently convert formats using the current
+ locale. Similarly, if you store a wide string and then store a narrow
+ string for the same data, the previously-set wide string will be dis-
+ carded in favor of the new data.
+
+ There are a few set/get functions that merit additional description:
+ archive_entry_set_link()
+ This function sets the symlink field if it is already set. Oth-
+ erwise, it sets the hardlink field.
+
+ File Flags
+ File flags are transparently converted between a bitmap representation
+ and a textual format. For example, if you set the bitmap and ask for
+ text, the library will build a canonical text format. However, if you
+ set a text format and request a text format, you will get back the same
+ text, even if it is ill-formed. If you need to canonicalize a textual
+ flags string, you should first set the text form, then request the bitmap
+ form, then use that to set the bitmap form. Setting the bitmap format
+ will clear the internal text representation and force it to be recon-
+ structed when you next request the text form.
+
+ The bitmap format consists of two integers, one containing bits that
+ should be set, the other specifying bits that should be cleared. Bits
+ not mentioned in either bitmap will be ignored. Usually, the bitmap of
+ bits to be cleared will be set to zero. In unusual circumstances, you
+ can force a fully-specified set of file flags by setting the bitmap of
+ flags to clear to the complement of the bitmap of flags to set. (This
+ differs from fflagstostr(3), which only includes names for set bits.)
+ Converting a bitmap to a textual string is a platform-specific operation;
+ bits that are not meaningful on the current platform will be ignored.
+
+ The canonical text format is a comma-separated list of flag names. The
+ archive_entry_copy_fflags_text_w() function parses the provided text and
+ sets the internal bitmap values. This is a platform-specific operation;
+ names that are not meaningful on the current platform will be ignored.
+ The function returns a pointer to the start of the first name that was
+ not recognized, or NULL if every name was recognized. Note that every
+ name--including names that follow an unrecognized name--will be evalu-
+ ated, and the bitmaps will be set to reflect every name that is recog-
+ nized. (In particular, this differs from strtofflags(3), which stops
+ parsing at the first unrecognized name.)
+
+ ACL Handling
+ XXX This needs serious help. XXX
+
+ An ``Access Control List'' (ACL) is a list of permissions that grant
+ access to particular users or groups beyond what would normally be pro-
+ vided by standard POSIX mode bits. The ACL handling here addresses some
+ deficiencies in the POSIX.1e draft 17 ACL specification. In particular,
+ POSIX.1e draft 17 specifies several different formats, but none of those
+ formats include both textual user/group names and numeric UIDs/GIDs.
+
+ XXX explain ACL stuff XXX

+DESCRIPTION
+ These functions provide a complete API for reading streaming archives.
+ The general process is to first create the struct archive object, set
+ options, initialize the reader, iterate over the archive headers and
+ associated data, then close the archive and release all resources. The
+ following summary describes the functions in approximately the order they
+ would be used:
+ archive_read_new()
+ Allocates and initializes a struct archive object suitable for
+ reading from an archive.
+ archive_read_support_compression_all(),
+ archive_read_support_compression_bzip2(),
+ archive_read_support_compression_compress(),
+ archive_read_support_compression_gzip(),
+ archive_read_support_compression_none()
+ Enables auto-detection code and decompression support for the
+ specified compression. Note that ``none'' is always enabled by
+ default. For convenience, archive_read_support_compression_all()
+ enables all available decompression code.
+ archive_read_support_compression_program()
+ Data is fed through the specified external program before being
+ dearchived. Note that this disables automatic detection of the
+ compression format, so it makes no sense to specify this in con-
+ junction with any other decompression option.
+ archive_read_support_format_all(), archive_read_support_format_cpio(),
+ archive_read_support_format_empty(),
+ archive_read_support_format_iso9660(),
+ archive_read_support_format_tar,()
+ archive_read_support_format_zip()
+ Enables support---including auto-detection code---for the speci-
+ fied archive format. For example,
+ archive_read_support_format_tar() enables support for a variety
+ of standard tar formats, old-style tar, ustar, pax interchange
+ format, and many common variants. For convenience,
+ archive_read_support_format_all() enables support for all avail-
+ able formats. Only empty archives are supported by default.
+ archive_read_open()
+ The same as archive_read_open2(), except that the skip callback
+ is assumed to be NULL.
+ archive_read_open2()
+ Freeze the settings, open the archive, and prepare for reading
+ entries. This is the most generic version of this call, which
+ accepts four callback functions. Most clients will want to use
+ archive_read_open_filename(), archive_read_open_FILE(),
+ archive_read_open_fd(), or archive_read_open_memory() instead.
+ The library invokes the client-provided functions to obtain raw
+ bytes from the archive.
+ archive_read_open_FILE()
+ Like archive_read_open(), except that it accepts a FILE *
+ pointer. This function should not be used with tape drives or
+ other devices that require strict I/O blocking.
+ archive_read_open_fd()
+ Like archive_read_open(), except that it accepts a file descrip-
+ tor and block size rather than a set of function pointers. Note
+ that the file descriptor will not be automatically closed at end-
+ of-archive. This function is safe for use with tape drives or
+ other blocked devices.
+ archive_read_open_file()
+ This is a deprecated synonym for archive_read_open_filename().
+ archive_read_open_filename()
+ Like archive_read_open(), except that it accepts a simple file-
+ name and a block size. A NULL filename represents standard
+ input. This function is safe for use with tape drives or other
+ blocked devices.
+ archive_read_open_memory()
+ Like archive_read_open(), except that it accepts a pointer and
+ size of a block of memory containing the archive data.
+ archive_read_next_header()
+ Read the header for the next entry and return a pointer to a
+ struct archive_entry.
+ archive_read_data()
+ Read data associated with the header just read. Internally, this
+ is a convenience function that calls archive_read_data_block()
+ and fills any gaps with nulls so that callers see a single con-
+ tinuous stream of data.
+ archive_read_data_block()
+ Return the next available block of data for this entry. Unlike
+ archive_read_data(), the archive_read_data_block() function
+ avoids copying data and allows you to correctly handle sparse
+ files, as supported by some archive formats. The library guaran-
+ tees that offsets will increase and that blocks will not overlap.
+ Note that the blocks returned from this function can be much
+ larger than the block size read from disk, due to compression and
+ internal buffer optimizations.
+ archive_read_data_skip()
+ A convenience function that repeatedly calls
+ archive_read_data_block() to skip all of the data for this ar-
+ chive entry.
+ archive_read_data_into_buffer()
+ This function is deprecated and will be removed. Use
+ archive_read_data() instead.
+ archive_read_data_into_fd()
+ A convenience function that repeatedly calls
+ archive_read_data_block() to copy the entire entry to the pro-
+ vided file descriptor.
+ archive_read_extract(), archive_read_extract_set_skip_file()
+ A convenience function that wraps the corresponding
+ archive_write_disk(3) interfaces. The first call to
+ archive_read_extract() creates a restore object using
+ archive_write_disk_new(3) and
+ archive_write_disk_set_standard_lookup(3), then transparently
+ invokes archive_write_disk_set_options(3),
+ archive_write_header(3), archive_write_data(3), and
+ archive_write_finish_entry(3) to create the entry on disk and
+ copy data into it. The flags argument is passed unmodified to
+ archive_write_disk_set_options(3).
+ archive_read_extract_set_progress_callback()
+ Sets a pointer to a user-defined callback that can be used for
+ updating progress displays during extraction. The progress func-
+ tion will be invoked during the extraction of large regular
+ files. The progress function will be invoked with the pointer
+ provided to this call. Generally, the data pointed to should
+ include a reference to the archive object and the archive_entry
+ object so that various statistics can be retrieved for the
+ progress display.
+ archive_read_close()
+ Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
+ archive_read_finish()
+ Invokes archive_read_close() if it was not invoked manually, then
+ release all resources. Note: In libarchive 1.x, this function
+ was declared to return void, which made it impossible to detect
+ certain errors when archive_read_close() was invoked implicitly
+ from this function. The declaration is corrected beginning with
+ libarchive 2.0.
+
+ Note that the library determines most of the relevant information about
+ the archive by inspection. In particular, it automatically detects
+ gzip(1) or bzip2(1) compression and transparently performs the appropri-
+ ate decompression. It also automatically detects the archive format.
+
+ A complete description of the struct archive and struct archive_entry
+ objects can be found in the overview manual page for libarchive(3).
+
+CLIENT CALLBACKS
+ The callback functions must match the following prototypes:
+
+ typedef ssize_t archive_read_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data, const void **buffer)
+
+ typedef int archive_skip_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data, size_t request)
+
+ typedef int archive_open_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data)
+
+ typedef int archive_close_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data)
+
+ The open callback is invoked by archive_open(). It should return
+ ARCHIVE_OK if the underlying file or data source is successfully opened.
+ If the open fails, it should call archive_set_error() to register an
+ error code and message and return ARCHIVE_FATAL.
+
+ The read callback is invoked whenever the library requires raw bytes from
+ the archive. The read callback should read data into a buffer, set the
+ const void **buffer argument to point to the available data, and return a
+ count of the number of bytes available. The library will invoke the read
+ callback again only after it has consumed this data. The library imposes
+ no constraints on the size of the data blocks returned. On end-of-file,
+ the read callback should return zero. On error, the read callback should
+ invoke archive_set_error() to register an error code and message and
+ return -1.
+
+ The skip callback is invoked when the library wants to ignore a block of
+ data. The return value is the number of bytes actually skipped, which
+ may differ from the request. If the callback cannot skip data, it should
+ return zero. If the skip callback is not provided (the function pointer
+ is NULL ), the library will invoke the read function instead and simply
+ discard the result. A skip callback can provide significant performance
+ gains when reading uncompressed archives from slow disk drives or other
+ media that can skip quickly.
+
+ The close callback is invoked by archive_close when the archive process-
+ ing is complete. The callback should return ARCHIVE_OK on success. On
+ failure, the callback should invoke archive_set_error() to register an
+ error code and message and return ARCHIVE_FATAL.
+
+EXAMPLE
+ The following illustrates basic usage of the library. In this example,
+ the callback functions are simply wrappers around the standard open(2),
+ read(2), and close(2) system calls.
+
+ void
+ list_archive(const char *name)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata;
+ struct archive *a;
+ struct archive_entry *entry;
+
+ mydata = malloc(sizeof(struct mydata));
+ a = archive_read_new();
+ mydata->name = name;
+ archive_read_support_compression_all(a);
+ archive_read_support_format_all(a);
+ archive_read_open(a, mydata, myopen, myread, myclose);
+ while (archive_read_next_header(a, &entry) == ARCHIVE_OK) {
+ printf("%s\n",archive_entry_pathname(entry));
+ archive_read_data_skip(a);
+ }
+ archive_read_finish(a);
+ free(mydata);
+ }
+
+ ssize_t
+ myread(struct archive *a, void *client_data, const void **buff)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ *buff = mydata->buff;
+ return (read(mydata->fd, mydata->buff, 10240));
+ }
+
+ int
+ myopen(struct archive *a, void *client_data)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ mydata->fd = open(mydata->name, O_RDONLY);
+ return (mydata->fd >= 0 ? ARCHIVE_OK : ARCHIVE_FATAL);
+ }
+
+ int
+ myclose(struct archive *a, void *client_data)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ if (mydata->fd > 0)
+ close(mydata->fd);
+ return (ARCHIVE_OK);
+ }
+
+RETURN VALUES
+ Most functions return zero on success, non-zero on error. The possible
+ return codes include: ARCHIVE_OK (the operation succeeded), ARCHIVE_WARN
+ (the operation succeeded but a non-critical error was encountered),
+ ARCHIVE_EOF (end-of-archive was encountered), ARCHIVE_RETRY (the opera-
+ tion failed but can be retried), and ARCHIVE_FATAL (there was a fatal
+ error; the archive should be closed immediately). Detailed error codes
+ and textual descriptions are available from the archive_errno() and
+ archive_error_string() functions.
+
+ archive_read_new() returns a pointer to a freshly allocated struct
+ archive object. It returns NULL on error.
+
+ archive_read_data() returns a count of bytes actually read or zero at the
+ end of the entry. On error, a value of ARCHIVE_FATAL, ARCHIVE_WARN, or
+ ARCHIVE_RETRY is returned and an error code and textual description can
+ be retrieved from the archive_errno() and archive_error_string() func-
+ tions.
+
+ The library expects the client callbacks to behave similarly. If there
+ is an error, you can use archive_set_error() to set an appropriate error
+ code and description, then return one of the non-zero values above.
+ (Note that the value eventually returned to the client may not be the
+ same; many errors that are not critical at the level of basic I/O can
+ prevent the archive from being properly read, thus most I/O errors even-
+ tually cause ARCHIVE_FATAL to be returned.)

+ Many traditional archiver programs treat empty files as valid empty ar-

+ entries to an empty file. Of course, it is impossible to determine the
+ format of an empty file by inspecting the contents, so this library
+ treats empty files as having a special ``empty'' format.

+DESCRIPTION
+ These functions provide access to various information about the struct
+ archive object used in the libarchive(3) library.
+ archive_clear_error()
+ Clears any error information left over from a previous call. Not
+ generally used in client code.
+ archive_compression()
+ Returns a numeric code indicating the current compression. This
+ value is set by archive_read_open().
+ archive_compression_name()
+ Returns a text description of the current compression suitable
+ for display.
+ archive_copy_error()
+ Copies error information from one archive to another.
+ archive_errno()
+ Returns a numeric error code (see errno(2)) indicating the reason
+ for the most recent error return.
+ archive_error_string()
+ Returns a textual error message suitable for display. The error
+ message here is usually more specific than that obtained from
+ passing the result of archive_errno() to strerror(3).
+ archive_format()
+ Returns a numeric code indicating the format of the current ar-
+ chive entry. This value is set by a successful call to
+ archive_read_next_header(). Note that it is common for this
+ value to change from entry to entry. For example, a tar archive
+ might have several entries that utilize GNU tar extensions and
+ several entries that do not. These entries will have different
+ format codes.
+ archive_format_name()
+ A textual description of the format of the current entry.
+ archive_set_error()
+ Sets the numeric error code and error description that will be
+ returned by archive_errno() and archive_error_string(). This
+ function should be used within I/O callbacks to set system-spe-
+ cific error codes and error descriptions. This function accepts
+ a printf-like format string and arguments. However, you should
+ be careful to use only the following printf format specifiers:
+ ``%c'', ``%d'', ``%jd'', ``%jo'', ``%ju'', ``%jx'', ``%ld'',
+ ``%lo'', ``%lu'', ``%lx'', ``%o'', ``%u'', ``%s'', ``%x'',
+ ``%%''. Field-width specifiers and other printf features are not
+ uniformly supported and should not be used.

+
+DESCRIPTION
+ These functions provide a complete API for creating streaming archive
+ files. The general process is to first create the struct archive object,
+ set any desired options, initialize the archive, append entries, then
+ close the archive and release all resources. The following summary
+ describes the functions in approximately the order they are ordinarily
+ used:
+
+ archive_write_new()
+ Allocates and initializes a struct archive object suitable for
+ writing a tar archive.
+
+ archive_write_set_bytes_per_block()
+ Sets the block size used for writing the archive data. Every
+ call to the write callback function, except possibly the last
+ one, will use this value for the length. The third parameter is
+ a boolean that specifies whether or not the final block written
+ will be padded to the full block size. If it is zero, the last
+ block will not be padded. If it is non-zero, padding will be
+ added both before and after compression. The default is to use a
+ block size of 10240 bytes and to pad the last block. Note that a
+ block size of zero will suppress internal blocking and cause
+ writes to be sent directly to the write callback as they occur.
+
+ archive_write_get_bytes_per_block()
+ Retrieve the block size to be used for writing. A value of -1
+ here indicates that the library should use default values. A
+ value of zero indicates that internal blocking is suppressed.
+
+ archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block()
+ Sets the block size used for writing the last block. If this
+ value is zero, the last block will be padded to the same size as
+ the other blocks. Otherwise, the final block will be padded to a
+ multiple of this size. In particular, setting it to 1 will cause
+ the final block to not be padded. For compressed output, any
+ padding generated by this option is applied only after the com-
+ pression. The uncompressed data is always unpadded. The default
+ is to pad the last block to the full block size (note that
+ archive_write_open_filename() will set this based on the file
+ type). Unlike the other ``set'' functions, this function can be
+ called after the archive is opened.
+
+ archive_write_get_bytes_in_last_block()
+ Retrieve the currently-set value for last block size. A value of
+ -1 here indicates that the library should use default values.
+
+ archive_write_set_format_cpio(), archive_write_set_format_pax(),
+ archive_write_set_format_pax_restricted(),
+ archive_write_set_format_shar(),
+ archive_write_set_format_shar_binary(),
+ archive_write_set_format_ustar()
+ Sets the format that will be used for the archive. The library
+ can write POSIX octet-oriented cpio format archives, POSIX-stan-
+ dard ``pax interchange'' format archives, traditional ``shar''
+ archives, enhanced ``binary'' shar archives that store a variety
+ of file attributes and handle binary files, and POSIX-standard
+ ``ustar'' archives. The pax interchange format is a backwards-
+ compatible tar format that adds key/value attributes to each
+ entry and supports arbitrary filenames, linknames, uids, sizes,
+ etc. ``Restricted pax interchange format'' is the library
+ default; this is the same as pax format, but suppresses the pax
+ extended header for most normal files. In most cases, this will
+ result in ordinary ustar archives.
+
+ archive_write_set_compression_bzip2(),
+ archive_write_set_compression_gzip(),
+ archive_write_set_compression_none()
+ The resulting archive will be compressed as specified. Note that
+ the compressed output is always properly blocked.
+
+ archive_write_set_compression_program()
+ The archive will be fed into the specified compression program.
+ The output of that program is blocked and written to the client
+ write callbacks.
+
+ archive_write_open()
+ Freeze the settings, open the archive, and prepare for writing
+ entries. This is the most generic form of this function, which
+ accepts pointers to three callback functions which will be
+ invoked by the compression layer to write the constructed ar-
+ chive.
+
+ archive_write_open_fd()
+ A convenience form of archive_write_open() that accepts a file
+ descriptor. The archive_write_open_fd() function is safe for use
+ with tape drives or other block-oriented devices.
+
+ archive_write_open_FILE()
+ A convenience form of archive_write_open() that accepts a FILE *
+ pointer. Note that archive_write_open_FILE() is not safe for
+ writing to tape drives or other devices that require correct
+ blocking.
+
+ archive_write_open_file()
+ A deprecated synonym for archive_write_open_filename().
+
+ archive_write_open_filename()
+ A convenience form of archive_write_open() that accepts a file-
+ name. A NULL argument indicates that the output should be writ-
+ ten to standard output; an argument of ``-'' will open a file
+ with that name. If you have not invoked
+ archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block(), then
+ archive_write_open_filename() will adjust the last-block padding
+ depending on the file: it will enable padding when writing to
+ standard output or to a character or block device node, it will
+ disable padding otherwise. You can override this by manually
+ invoking archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block() before calling
+ archive_write_open(). The archive_write_open_filename() function
+ is safe for use with tape drives or other block-oriented devices.
+
+ archive_write_open_memory()
+ A convenience form of archive_write_open() that accepts a pointer
+ to a block of memory that will receive the archive. The final
+ size_t * argument points to a variable that will be updated after
+ each write to reflect how much of the buffer is currently in use.
+ You should be careful to ensure that this variable remains allo-
+ cated until after the archive is closed.
+
+ archive_write_header()
+ Build and write a header using the data in the provided struct
+ archive_entry structure. See archive_entry(3) for information on
+ creating and populating struct archive_entry objects.
+
+ archive_write_data()
+ Write data corresponding to the header just written. Returns
+ number of bytes written or -1 on error.
+
+ archive_write_finish_entry()
+ Close out the entry just written. In particular, this writes out
+ the final padding required by some formats. Ordinarily, clients
+ never need to call this, as it is called automatically by
+ archive_write_next_header() and archive_write_close() as needed.
+
+ archive_write_close()
+ Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
+
+ archive_write_finish()
+ Invokes archive_write_close() if it was not invoked manually,
+ then releases all resources. Note that this function was
+ declared to return void in libarchive 1.x, which made it impossi-
+ ble to detect errors when archive_write_close() was invoked
+ implicitly from this function. This is corrected beginning with
+ libarchive 2.0.
+ More information about the struct archive object and the overall design
+ of the library can be found in the libarchive(3) overview.
+
+IMPLEMENTATION
+ Compression support is built-in to libarchive, which uses zlib and bzlib
+ to handle gzip and bzip2 compression, respectively.
+
+CLIENT CALLBACKS
+ To use this library, you will need to define and register callback func-
+ tions that will be invoked to write data to the resulting archive. These
+ functions are registered by calling archive_write_open():
+
+ typedef int archive_open_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data)
+
+ The open callback is invoked by archive_write_open(). It should return
+ ARCHIVE_OK if the underlying file or data source is successfully opened.
+ If the open fails, it should call archive_set_error() to register an
+ error code and message and return ARCHIVE_FATAL.
+
+ typedef ssize_t archive_write_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data, void *buffer, size_t length)
+
+ The write callback is invoked whenever the library needs to write raw
+ bytes to the archive. For correct blocking, each call to the write call-
+ back function should translate into a single write(2) system call. This
+ is especially critical when writing archives to tape drives. On success,
+ the write callback should return the number of bytes actually written.
+ On error, the callback should invoke archive_set_error() to register an
+ error code and message and return -1.
+
+ typedef int archive_close_callback(struct archive *, void
+ *client_data)
+
+ The close callback is invoked by archive_close when the archive process-
+ ing is complete. The callback should return ARCHIVE_OK on success. On
+ failure, the callback should invoke archive_set_error() to register an
+ error code and message and return ARCHIVE_FATAL.
+
+EXAMPLE
+ The following sketch illustrates basic usage of the library. In this
+ example, the callback functions are simply wrappers around the standard
+ open(2), write(2), and close(2) system calls.
+
+ #include <sys/stat.h>
+ #include <archive.h>

+ };
+
+ int
+ myopen(struct archive *a, void *client_data)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ mydata->fd = open(mydata->name, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0644);
+ if (mydata->fd >= 0)
+ return (ARCHIVE_OK);
+ else
+ return (ARCHIVE_FATAL);
+ }
+
+ ssize_t
+ mywrite(struct archive *a, void *client_data, void *buff, size_t n)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ return (write(mydata->fd, buff, n));
+ }
+
+ int
+ myclose(struct archive *a, void *client_data)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = client_data;
+
+ if (mydata->fd > 0)
+ close(mydata->fd);
+ return (0);
+ }
+
+ void
+ write_archive(const char *outname, const char **filename)
+ {
+ struct mydata *mydata = malloc(sizeof(struct mydata));

+ while (*filename) {

+ entry = archive_entry_new();
+ archive_entry_copy_stat(entry, &st);
+ archive_entry_set_pathname(entry, *filename);
+ archive_write_header(a, entry);
+ fd = open(*filename, O_RDONLY);
+ len = read(fd, buff, sizeof(buff));
+ while ( len > 0 ) {
+ archive_write_data(a, buff, len);
+ len = read(fd, buff, sizeof(buff));
+ }

+ int main(int argc, const char **argv)
+ {
+ const char *outname;
+ argv++;
+ outname = argv++;
+ write_archive(outname, argv);
+ return 0;
+ }
+
+RETURN VALUES
+ Most functions return ARCHIVE_OK (zero) on success, or one of several
+ non-zero error codes for errors. Specific error codes include:
+ ARCHIVE_RETRY for operations that might succeed if retried, ARCHIVE_WARN
+ for unusual conditions that do not prevent further operations, and
+ ARCHIVE_FATAL for serious errors that make remaining operations impossi-
+ ble. The archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions can be
+ used to retrieve an appropriate error code and a textual error message.
+
+ archive_write_new() returns a pointer to a newly-allocated struct archive
+ object.
+
+ archive_write_data() returns a count of the number of bytes actually
+ written. On error, -1 is returned and the archive_errno() and
+ archive_error_string() functions will return appropriate values. Note
+ that if the client-provided write callback function returns a non-zero
+ value, that error will be propagated back to the caller through whatever
+ API function resulted in that call, which may include
+ archive_write_header(), archive_write_data(), archive_write_close(), or
+ archive_write_finish(). The client callback can call archive_set_error()
+ to provide values that can then be retrieved by archive_errno() and
+ archive_error_string().

+
+BUGS
+ There are many peculiar bugs in historic tar implementations that may
+ cause certain programs to reject archives written by this library. For
+ example, several historic implementations calculated header checksums
+ incorrectly and will thus reject valid archives; GNU tar does not fully
+ support pax interchange format; some old tar implementations required
+ specific field terminations.
+
+ The default pax interchange format eliminates most of the historic tar
+ limitations and provides a generic key/value attribute facility for ven-
+ dor-defined extensions. One oversight in POSIX is the failure to provide
+ a standard attribute for large device numbers. This library uses
+ ``SCHILY.devminor'' and ``SCHILY.devmajor'' for device numbers that
+ exceed the range supported by the backwards-compatible ustar header.
+ These keys are compatible with Joerg Schilling's star archiver. Other
+ implementations may not recognize these keys and will thus be unable to
+ correctly restore device nodes with large device numbers from archives
+ created by this library.

+
+DESCRIPTION
+ These functions provide a complete API for creating objects on disk from
+ struct archive_entry descriptions. They are most naturally used when
+ extracting objects from an archive using the archive_read() interface.
+ The general process is to read struct archive_entry objects from an ar-
+ chive, then write those objects to a struct archive object created using
+ the archive_write_disk() family functions. This interface is deliber-
+ ately very similar to the archive_write() interface used to write objects
+ to a streaming archive.
+
+ archive_write_disk_new()
+ Allocates and initializes a struct archive object suitable for
+ writing objects to disk.
+
+ archive_write_disk_set_skip_file()
+ Records the device and inode numbers of a file that should not be
+ overwritten. This is typically used to ensure that an extraction
+ process does not overwrite the archive from which objects are
+ being read. This capability is technically unnecessary but can
+ be a significant performance optimization in practice.
+
+ archive_write_disk_set_options()
+ The options field consists of a bitwise OR of one or more of the
+ following values:
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER
+ The user and group IDs should be set on the restored
+ file. By default, the user and group IDs are not
+ restored.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_PERM
+ Full permissions (including SGID, SUID, and sticky bits)
+ should be restored exactly as specified, without obeying
+ the current umask. Note that SUID and SGID bits can only
+ be restored if the user and group ID of the object on
+ disk are correct. If ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER is not speci-
+ fied, then SUID and SGID bits will only be restored if
+ the default user and group IDs of newly-created objects
+ on disk happen to match those specified in the archive
+ entry. By default, only basic permissions are restored,
+ and umask is obeyed.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_TIME
+ The timestamps (mtime, ctime, and atime) should be
+ restored. By default, they are ignored. Note that
+ restoring of atime is not currently supported.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_NO_OVERWRITE
+ Existing files on disk will not be overwritten. By
+ default, existing regular files are truncated and over-
+ written; existing directories will have their permissions
+ updated; other pre-existing objects are unlinked and
+ recreated from scratch.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_UNLINK
+ Existing files on disk will be unlinked before any
+ attempt to create them. In some cases, this can prove to
+ be a significant performance improvement. By default,
+ existing files are truncated and rewritten, but the file
+ is not recreated. In particular, the default behavior
+ does not break existing hard links.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_ACL
+ Attempt to restore ACLs. By default, extended ACLs are
+ ignored.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_FFLAGS
+ Attempt to restore extended file flags. By default, file
+ flags are ignored.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_XATTR
+ Attempt to restore POSIX.1e extended attributes. By
+ default, they are ignored.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_SYMLINKS
+ Refuse to extract any object whose final location would
+ be altered by a symlink on disk. This is intended to
+ help guard against a variety of mischief caused by ar-
+ chives that (deliberately or otherwise) extract files
+ outside of the current directory. The default is not to
+ perform this check. If ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_UNLINK is speci-
+ fied together with this option, the library will remove
+ any intermediate symlinks it finds and return an error
+ only if such symlink could not be removed.
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_NODOTDOT
+ Refuse to extract a path that contains a .. element any-
+ where within it. The default is to not refuse such
+ paths. Note that paths ending in .. always cause an
+ error, regardless of this flag.
+
+ archive_write_disk_set_group_lookup(),
+ archive_write_disk_set_user_lookup()
+ The struct archive_entry objects contain both names and ids that
+ can be used to identify users and groups. These names and ids
+ describe the ownership of the file itself and also appear in ACL
+ lists. By default, the library uses the ids and ignores the
+ names, but this can be overridden by registering user and group
+ lookup functions. To register, you must provide a lookup func-
+ tion which accepts both a name and id and returns a suitable id.
+ You may also provide a void * pointer to a private data structure
+ and a cleanup function for that data. The cleanup function will
+ be invoked when the struct archive object is destroyed.
+
+ archive_write_disk_set_standard_lookup()
+ This convenience function installs a standard set of user and
+ group lookup functions. These functions use getpwnam(3) and
+ getgrnam(3) to convert names to ids, defaulting to the ids if the
+ names cannot be looked up. These functions also implement a sim-
+ ple memory cache to reduce the number of calls to getpwnam(3) and
+ getgrnam(3).
+
+ archive_write_header()
+ Build and write a header using the data in the provided struct
+ archive_entry structure. See archive_entry(3) for information on
+ creating and populating struct archive_entry objects.
+
+ archive_write_data()
+ Write data corresponding to the header just written. Returns
+ number of bytes written or -1 on error.
+
+ archive_write_finish_entry()
+ Close out the entry just written. Ordinarily, clients never need
+ to call this, as it is called automatically by
+ archive_write_next_header() and archive_write_close() as needed.
+
+ archive_write_close()
+ Set any attributes that could not be set during the initial
+ restore. For example, directory timestamps are not restored ini-
+ tially because restoring a subsequent file would alter that time-
+ stamp. Similarly, non-writable directories are initially created
+ with write permissions (so that their contents can be restored).
+ The archive_write_disk_new library maintains a list of all such
+ deferred attributes and sets them when this function is invoked.
+
+ archive_write_finish()
+ Invokes archive_write_close() if it was not invoked manually,
+ then releases all resources.
+ More information about the struct archive object and the overall design
+ of the library can be found in the libarchive(3) overview. Many of these
+ functions are also documented under archive_write(3).
+
+RETURN VALUES
+ Most functions return ARCHIVE_OK (zero) on success, or one of several
+ non-zero error codes for errors. Specific error codes include:
+ ARCHIVE_RETRY for operations that might succeed if retried, ARCHIVE_WARN
+ for unusual conditions that do not prevent further operations, and
+ ARCHIVE_FATAL for serious errors that make remaining operations impossi-
+ ble. The archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions can be
+ used to retrieve an appropriate error code and a textual error message.
+
+ archive_write_disk_new() returns a pointer to a newly-allocated struct
+ archive object.
+
+ archive_write_data() returns a count of the number of bytes actually
+ written. On error, -1 is returned and the archive_errno() and
+ archive_error_string() functions will return appropriate values.

+
+HISTORY
+ The libarchive library first appeared in FreeBSD 5.3. The
+ archive_write_disk interface was added to libarchive 2.0 and first
+ appeared in FreeBSD 6.3.
+
+AUTHORS
+ The libarchive library was written by Tim Kientzle <kientzle@acm.org>.
+
+BUGS
+ Directories are actually extracted in two distinct phases. Directories
+ are created during archive_write_header(), but final permissions are not
+ set until archive_write_close(). This separation is necessary to cor-
+ rectly handle borderline cases such as a non-writable directory contain-
+ ing files, but can cause unexpected results. In particular, directory
+ permissions are not fully restored until the archive is closed. If you
+ use chdir(2) to change the current directory between calls to
+ archive_read_extract() or before calling archive_read_close(), you may
+ confuse the permission-setting logic with the result that directory per-
+ missions are restored incorrectly.
+
+ The library attempts to create objects with filenames longer than
+ PATH_MAX by creating prefixes of the full path and changing the current
+ directory. Currently, this logic is limited in scope; the fixup pass
+ does not work correctly for such objects and the symlink security check
+ option disables the support for very long pathnames.
+
+ Restoring the path aa/../bb does create each intermediate directory. In
+ particular, the directory aa is created as well as the final object bb.
+ In theory, this can be exploited to create an entire directory heirarchy
+ with a single request. Of course, this does not work if the
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_NODOTDOT option is specified.
+
+ Implicit directories are always created obeying the current umask.
+ Explicit objects are created obeying the current umask unless
+ ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_PERM is specified, in which case they current umask is
+ ignored.
+
+ SGID and SUID bits are restored only if the correct user and group could
+ be set. If ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER is not specified, then no attempt is
+ made to set the ownership. In this case, SGID and SUID bits are restored
+ only if the user and group of the final object happen to match those
+ specified in the entry.
+
+ The ``standard'' user-id and group-id lookup functions are not the
+ defaults because getgrnam(3) and getpwnam(3) are sometimes too large for
+ particular applications. The current design allows the application
+ author to use a more compact implementation when appropriate.
+
+ There should be a corresponding archive_read_disk interface that walks a
+ directory heirarchy and returns archive entry objects.

+NAME
+ cpio -- copy files to and from archives
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ cpio {-i} [options] [pattern ...] [< archive]
+ cpio {-o} [options] < name-list [> archive]
+ cpio {-p} [options] dest-dir < name-list
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ cpio copies files between archives and directories. This implementation
+ can extract from tar, pax, cpio, zip, jar, ar, and ISO 9660 cdrom images
+ and can create tar, pax, cpio, ar, and shar archives.
+
+ The first option to cpio is a mode indicator from the following list:
+ -i Input. Read an archive from standard input and extract the con-
+ tents to disk or (if the -t option is specified) list the con-
+ tents to standard output. If one or more file patterns are spec-
+ ified, only files matching one of the patterns will be extracted.
+ -o Output. Read a list of filenames from standard input and produce
+ a new archive on standard output containing the specified items.
+ -p Pass-through. Read a list of filenames from standard input and
+ copy the files to the specified directory.
+
+OPTIONS
+ Unless specifically stated otherwise, options are applicable in all oper-
+ ating modes.
+
+ -a (o and p modes) Reset access times on files after they are read.
+
+ -B (o mode only) Block output to records of 5120 bytes.
+
+ -c (o mode only) Use the old POSIX portable character format.
+ Equivalent to --format odc.
+
+ -d (i and p modes) Create directories as necessary.
+
+ -f pattern
+ (i mode only) Ignore files that match pattern.
+
+ --format format
+ (o mode only) Produce the output archive in the specified format.
+ Supported formats include:
+
+ cpio Synonym for odc.
+ newc The SVR4 portable cpio format.
+ odc The old POSIX.1 portable octet-oriented cpio format.
+ pax The POSIX.1 pax format, an extension of the ustar for-
+ mat.
+ ustar The POSIX.1 tar format.
+
+ The default format is odc. See libarchive_formats(5) for more
+ complete information about the formats currently supported by the
+ underlying libarchive(3) library.
+
+ -i Input mode. See above for description.
+
+ -L (o and p modes) All symbolic links will be followed. Normally,
+ symbolic links are archived and copied as symbolic links. With
+ this option, the target of the link will be archived or copied
+ instead.
+
+ -l (p mode only) Create links from the target directory to the orig-
+ inal files, instead of copying.
+
+ -m (i and p modes) Set file modification time on created files to
+ match those in the source.
+
+ -o Output mode. See above for description.
+
+ -p Pass-through mode. See above for description.
+
+ --quiet
+ Suppress unnecessary messages.
+
+ -R [user][:][group]
+ Set the owner and/or group on files in the output. If group is
+ specified with no user (for example, -R :wheel) then the group
+ will be set but not the user. If the user is specified with a
+ trailing colon and no group (for example, -R root:) then the
+ group will be set to the user's default group. If the user is
+ specified with no trailing colon, then the user will be set but
+ not the group. In -i and -p modes, this option can only be used
+ by the super-user. (For compatibility, a period can be used in
+ place of the colon.)
+
+ -r (All modes.) Rename files interactively. For each file, a
+ prompt is written to /dev/tty containing the name of the file and
+ a line is read from /dev/tty. If the line read is blank, the
+ file is skipped. If the line contains a single period, the file
+ is processed normally. Otherwise, the line is taken to be the
+ new name of the file.
+
+ -t (i mode only) List the contents of the archive to stdout; do not
+ restore the contents to disk.
+
+ -u (i and p modes) Unconditionally overwrite existing files. Ordi-
+ narily, an older file will not overwrite a newer file on disk.
+
+ -v Print the name of each file to stderr as it is processed. With
+ -t, provide a detailed listing of each file.
+
+ --version
+ Print the program version information and exit.
+
+ -y (o mode only) Compress the archive with bzip2-compatible compres-
+ sion before writing to stdout. In input mode, this option is
+ ignored; bzip2 compression is recognized automatically on input.
+
+ -z (o mode only) Compress the archive with gzip-compatible compres-
+ sion before writing it to stdout. In input mode, this option is
+ ignored; gzip compression is recognized automatically on input.
+
+ENVIRONMENT
+ The following environment variables affect the execution of cpio:
+
+ LANG The locale to use. See environ(7) for more information.
+
+ TZ The timezone to use when displaying dates. See environ(7) for
+ more information.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+ The cpio utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
+
+EXAMPLES
+ The cpio command is traditionally used to copy file heirarchies in con-
+ junction with the find(1) command. The first example here simply copies
+ all files from src to dest:
+ find src | cpio -pmud dest
+
+ By carefully selecting options to the find(1) command and combining it
+ with other standard utilities, it is possible to exercise very fine con-
+ trol over which files are copied. This next example copies files from
+ src to dest that are more than 2 days old and whose names match a partic-
+ ular pattern:
+ find src -mtime +2 | grep foo[bar] | cpio -pdmu dest
+
+ This example copies files from src to dest that are more than 2 days old
+ and which contain the word ``foobar'':
+ find src -mtime +2 | xargs grep -l foobar | cpio -pdmu dest
+
+COMPATIBILITY
+ The mode options i, o, and p and the options a, B, c, d, f, l, m, r, t,
+ u, and v comply with SUSv2.
+
+ The old POSIX.1 standard specified that only -i, -o, and -p were inter-
+ preted as command-line options. Each took a single argument of a list of
+ modifier characters. For example, the standard syntax allows -imu but
+ does not support -miu or -i -m -u, since m and u are only modifiers to
+ -i, they are not command-line options in their own right. The syntax
+ supported by this implementation is backwards-compatible with the stan-
+ dard. For best compatibility, scripts should limit themselves to the
+ standard syntax.

+
+STANDARDS
+ There is no current POSIX standard for the cpio command; it appeared in
+ ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 (``POSIX.1'') but was dropped from IEEE Std
+ 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
+
+ The cpio, ustar, and pax interchange file formats are defined by IEEE Std
+ 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'') for the pax command.
+
+HISTORY
+ The original cpio and find utilities were written by Dick Haight while
+ working in AT&T's Unix Support Group. They first appeared in 1977 in
+ PWB/UNIX 1.0, the ``Programmer's Work Bench'' system developed for use
+ within AT&T. They were first released outside of AT&T as part of System
+ III Unix in 1981. As a result, cpio actually predates tar, even though
+ it was not well-known outside of AT&T until some time later.
+
+ This is a complete re-implementation based on the libarchive(3) library.
+
+BUGS
+ The cpio archive format has several basic limitations: It does not store
+ user and group names, only numbers. As a result, it cannot be reliably
+ used to transfer files between systems with dissimilar user and group
+ numbering. Older cpio formats limit the user and group numbers to 16 or
+ 18 bits, which is insufficient for modern systems. The cpio archive for-
+ mats cannot support files over 4 gigabytes, except for the ``odc'' vari-
+ ant, which can support files up to 8 gigabytes.

+NAME
+ tar -- manipulate tape archives
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ tar [bundled-flags <args>] [<file> | <pattern> ...]
+ tar {-c} [options] [files | directories]
+ tar {-r | -u} -f archive-file [options] [files | directories]
+ tar {-t | -x} [options] [patterns]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ tar creates and manipulates streaming archive files. This implementation
+ can extract from tar, pax, cpio, zip, jar, ar, and ISO 9660 cdrom images
+ and can create tar, pax, cpio, ar, and shar archives.
+
+ The first synopsis form shows a ``bundled'' option word. This usage is
+ provided for compatibility with historical implementations. See COMPATI-
+ BILITY below for details.
+
+ The other synopsis forms show the preferred usage. The first option to
+ tar is a mode indicator from the following list:
+ -c Create a new archive containing the specified items.
+ -r Like -c, but new entries are appended to the archive. Note that
+ this only works on uncompressed archives stored in regular files.
+ The -f option is required.
+ -t List archive contents to stdout.
+ -u Like -r, but new entries are added only if they have a modifica-
+ tion date newer than the corresponding entry in the archive.
+ Note that this only works on uncompressed archives stored in reg-
+ ular files. The -f option is required.
+ -x Extract to disk from the archive. If a file with the same name
+ appears more than once in the archive, each copy will be
+ extracted, with later copies overwriting (replacing) earlier
+ copies.
+
+ In -c, -r, or -u mode, each specified file or directory is added to the
+ archive in the order specified on the command line. By default, the con-
+ tents of each directory are also archived.
+
+ In extract or list mode, the entire command line is read and parsed
+ before the archive is opened. The pathnames or patterns on the command
+ line indicate which items in the archive should be processed. Patterns
+ are shell-style globbing patterns as documented in tcsh(1).
+
+OPTIONS
+ Unless specifically stated otherwise, options are applicable in all oper-
+ ating modes.
+
+ @archive
+ (c and r mode only) The specified archive is opened and the
+ entries in it will be appended to the current archive. As a sim-
+ ple example,
+ tar -c -f - newfile @original.tar
+ writes a new archive to standard output containing a file newfile
+ and all of the entries from original.tar. In contrast,
+ tar -c -f - newfile original.tar
+ creates a new archive with only two entries. Similarly,
+ tar -czf - --format pax @-
+ reads an archive from standard input (whose format will be deter-
+ mined automatically) and converts it into a gzip-compressed pax-
+ format archive on stdout. In this way, tar can be used to con-
+ vert archives from one format to another.
+
+ -b blocksize
+ Specify the block size, in 512-byte records, for tape drive I/O.
+ As a rule, this argument is only needed when reading from or
+ writing to tape drives, and usually not even then as the default
+ block size of 20 records (10240 bytes) is very common.
+
+ -C directory
+ In c and r mode, this changes the directory before adding the
+ following files. In x mode, change directories after opening the
+ archive but before extracting entries from the archive.
+
+ --check-links (-W check-links)
+ (c and r modes only) Issue a warning message unless all links to
+ each file are archived.
+
+ --exclude pattern (-W exclude=pattern)
+ Do not process files or directories that match the specified pat-
+ tern. Note that exclusions take precedence over patterns or
+ filenames specified on the command line.
+
+ --format format (-W format=format)
+ (c mode only) Use the specified format for the created archive.
+ Supported formats include ``cpio'', ``pax'', ``shar'', and
+ ``ustar''. Other formats may also be supported; see
+ libarchive-formats(5) for more information about currently-sup-
+ ported formats.
+
+ -f file
+ Read the archive from or write the archive to the specified file.
+ The filename can be - for standard input or standard output. If
+ not specified, the default tape device will be used. (On
+ FreeBSD, the default tape device is /dev/sa0.)
+
+ --fast-read (-W fast-read)
+ (x and t mode only) Extract or list only the first archive entry
+ that matches each pattern or filename operand. Exit as soon as
+ each specified pattern or filename has been matched. By default,
+ the archive is always read to the very end, since there can be
+ multiple entries with the same name and, by convention, later
+ entries overwrite earlier entries. This option is provided as a
+ performance optimization.
+
+ -H (c and r mode only) Symbolic links named on the command line will
+ be followed; the target of the link will be archived, not the
+ link itself.
+
+ -h (c and r mode only) Synonym for -L.
+
+ -I Synonym for -T.
+
+ --include pattern (-W include=pattern)
+ Process only files or directories that match the specified pat-
+ tern. Note that exclusions specified with --exclude take prece-
+ dence over inclusions. If no inclusions are explicitly speci-
+ fied, all entries are processed by default. The --include option
+ is especially useful when filtering archives. For example, the
+ command
+ tar -c -f new.tar --include='*foo*' @old.tgz
+ creates a new archive new.tar containing only the entries from
+ old.tgz containing the string `foo'.
+
+ -j (c mode only) Compress the resulting archive with bzip2(1). In
+ extract or list modes, this option is ignored. Note that, unlike
+ other tar implementations, this implementation recognizes bzip2
+ compression automatically when reading archives.
+
+ -k (x mode only) Do not overwrite existing files. In particular, if
+ a file appears more than once in an archive, later copies will
+ not overwrite earlier copies.
+
+ -L (c and r mode only) All symbolic links will be followed. Nor-
+ mally, symbolic links are archived as such. With this option,
+ the target of the link will be archived instead.
+
+ -l This is a synonym for the --check-links option.
+
+ -m (x mode only) Do not extract modification time. By default, the
+ modification time is set to the time stored in the archive.
+
+ -n (c, r, u modes only) Do not recursively archive the contents of
+ directories.
+
+ --newer date (-W newer=date)
+ (c, r, u modes only) Only include files and directories newer
+ than the specified date. This compares ctime entries.
+
+ --newer-mtime date (-W newer-mtime=date)
+ (c, r, u modes only) Like --newer, except it compares mtime
+ entries instead of ctime entries.
+
+ --newer-than file (-W newer-than=file)
+ (c, r, u modes only) Only include files and directories newer
+ than the specified file. This compares ctime entries.
+
+ --newer-mtime-than file (-W newer-mtime-than=file)
+ (c, r, u modes only) Like --newer-than, except it compares mtime
+ entries instead of ctime entries.
+
+ --nodump (-W nodump)
+ (c and r modes only) Honor the nodump file flag by skipping this
+ file.
+
+ --null (-W null)
+ (use with -I, -T, or -X) Filenames or patterns are separated by
+ null characters, not by newlines. This is often used to read
+ filenames output by the -print0 option to find(1).
+
+ -O (x, t modes only) In extract (-x) mode, files will be written to
+ standard out rather than being extracted to disk. In list (-t)
+ mode, the file listing will be written to stderr rather than the
+ usual stdout.
+
+ -o (x mode only) Use the user and group of the user running the pro-
+ gram rather than those specified in the archive. Note that this
+ has no significance unless -p is specified, and the program is
+ being run by the root user. In this case, the file modes and
+ flags from the archive will be restored, but ACLs or owner infor-
+ mation in the archive will be discarded.
+
+ --one-file-system (-W one-file-system)
+ (c, r, and u modes) Do not cross mount points.
+
+ -P Preserve pathnames. By default, absolute pathnames (those that
+ begin with a / character) have the leading slash removed both
+ when creating archives and extracting from them. Also, tar will
+ refuse to extract archive entries whose pathnames contain .. or
+ whose target directory would be altered by a symlink. This
+ option suppresses these behaviors.
+
+ -p (x mode only) Preserve file permissions. Attempt to restore the
+ full permissions, including owner, file modes, file flags and
+ ACLs, if available, for each item extracted from the archive. By
+ default, newly-created files are owned by the user running tar,
+ the file mode is restored for newly-created regular files, and
+ all other types of entries receive default permissions. If tar
+ is being run by root, the default is to restore the owner unless
+ the -o option is also specified.
+
+ --strip-components count (-W strip-components=count)
+ (x and t mode only) Remove the specified number of leading path
+ elements. Pathnames with fewer elements will be silently
+ skipped. Note that the pathname is edited after checking inclu-
+ sion/exclusion patterns but before security checks.
+
+ -T filename
+ In x or t mode, tar will read the list of names to be extracted
+ from filename. In c mode, tar will read names to be archived
+ from filename. The special name ``-C'' on a line by itself will
+ cause the current directory to be changed to the directory speci-
+ fied on the following line. Names are terminated by newlines
+ unless --null is specified. Note that --null also disables the
+ special handling of lines containing ``-C''.
+
+ -U (x mode only) Unlink files before creating them. Without this
+ option, tar overwrites existing files, which preserves existing
+ hardlinks. With this option, existing hardlinks will be broken,
+ as will any symlink that would affect the location of an
+ extracted file.
+
+ --use-compress-program program
+ Pipe the input (in x or t mode) or the output (in c mode) through
+ program instead of using the builtin compression support.
+
+ -v Produce verbose output. In create and extract modes, tar will
+ list each file name as it is read from or written to the archive.
+ In list mode, tar will produce output similar to that of ls(1).
+ Additional -v options will provide additional detail.
+
+ -W longopt=value
+ Long options (preceded by --) are only supported directly on sys-
+ tems that have the getopt_long(3) function. The -W option can be
+ used to access long options on systems that do not support this
+ function.
+
+ -w Ask for confirmation for every action.
+
+ -X filename
+ Read a list of exclusion patterns from the specified file. See
+ --exclude for more information about the handling of exclusions.
+
+ -y (c mode only) Compress the resulting archive with bzip2(1). In
+ extract or list modes, this option is ignored. Note that, unlike
+ other tar implementations, this implementation recognizes bzip2
+ compression automatically when reading archives.
+
+ -z (c mode only) Compress the resulting archive with gzip(1). In
+ extract or list modes, this option is ignored. Note that, unlike
+ other tar implementations, this implementation recognizes gzip
+ compression automatically when reading archives.
+
+ENVIRONMENT
+ The following environment variables affect the execution of tar:
+
+ LANG The locale to use. See environ(7) for more information.
+
+ TAPE The default tape device. The -f option overrides this.
+
+ TZ The timezone to use when displaying dates. See environ(7) for
+ more information.
+
+FILES
+ /dev/sa0 The default tape device, if not overridden by the TAPE envi-
+ ronment variable or the -f option.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+ The tar utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
+
+EXAMPLES
+ The following creates a new archive called file.tar.gz that contains two
+ files source.c and source.h:
+ tar -czf file.tar.gz source.c source.h
+
+ To view a detailed table of contents for this archive:
+ tar -tvf file.tar.gz
+
+ To extract all entries from the archive on the default tape drive:
+ tar -x
+
+ To examine the contents of an ISO 9660 cdrom image:
+ tar -tf image.iso
+
+ To move file hierarchies, invoke tar as
+ tar -cf - -C srcdir . | tar -xpf - -C destdir
+ or more traditionally
+ cd srcdir ; tar -cf - . | (cd destdir ; tar -xpf -)
+
+ In create mode, the list of files and directories to be archived can also
+ include directory change instructions of the form -Cfoo/baz and archive
+ inclusions of the form @archive-file. For example, the command line
+ tar -c -f new.tar foo1 @old.tgz -C/tmp foo2
+ will create a new archive new.tar. tar will read the file foo1 from the
+ current directory and add it to the output archive. It will then read
+ each entry from old.tgz and add those entries to the output archive.
+ Finally, it will switch to the /tmp directory and add foo2 to the output
+ archive.
+
+ The --newer and --newer-mtime switches accept a variety of common date
+ and time specifications, including ``12 Mar 2005 7:14:29pm'',
+ ``2005-03-12 19:14'', ``5 minutes ago'', and ``19:14 PST May 1''.
+
+COMPATIBILITY
+ The bundled-arguments format is supported for compatibility with historic
+ implementations. It consists of an initial word (with no leading - char-
+ acter) in which each character indicates an option. Arguments follow as
+ separate words. The order of the arguments must match the order of the
+ corresponding characters in the bundled command word. For example,
+ tar tbf 32 file.tar
+ specifies three flags t, b, and f. The b and f flags both require argu-
+ ments, so there must be two additional items on the command line. The 32
+ is the argument to the b flag, and file.tar is the argument to the f
+ flag.
+
+ The mode options c, r, t, u, and x and the options b, f, l, m, o, v, and
+ w comply with SUSv2.
+
+ For maximum portability, scripts that invoke tar should use the bundled-
+ argument format above, should limit themselves to the c, t, and x modes,
+ and the b, f, m, v, and w options.
+
+ On systems that support getopt_long(), additional long options are avail-
+ able to improve compatibility with other tar implementations.
+
+SECURITY
+ Certain security issues are common to many archiving programs, including
+ tar. In particular, carefully-crafted archives can request that tar
+ extract files to locations outside of the target directory. This can
+ potentially be used to cause unwitting users to overwrite files they did
+ not intend to overwrite. If the archive is being extracted by the supe-
+ ruser, any file on the system can potentially be overwritten. There are
+ three ways this can happen. Although tar has mechanisms to protect
+ against each one, savvy users should be aware of the implications:
+
+ o Archive entries can have absolute pathnames. By default, tar
+ removes the leading / character from filenames before restoring
+ them to guard against this problem.
+
+ o Archive entries can have pathnames that include .. components.
+ By default, tar will not extract files containing .. components
+ in their pathname.
+
+ o Archive entries can exploit symbolic links to restore files to
+ other directories. An archive can restore a symbolic link to
+ another directory, then use that link to restore a file into that
+ directory. To guard against this, tar checks each extracted path
+ for symlinks. If the final path element is a symlink, it will be
+ removed and replaced with the archive entry. If -U is specified,
+ any intermediate symlink will also be unconditionally removed.
+ If neither -U nor -P is specified, tar will refuse to extract the
+ entry.
+ To protect yourself, you should be wary of any archives that come from
+ untrusted sources. You should examine the contents of an archive with
+ tar -tf filename
+ before extraction. You should use the -k option to ensure that tar will
+ not overwrite any existing files or the -U option to remove any pre-
+ existing files. You should generally not extract archives while running
+ with super-user privileges. Note that the -P option to tar disables the
+ security checks above and allows you to extract an archive while preserv-
+ ing any absolute pathnames, .. components, or symlinks to other directo-
+ ries.

+
+STANDARDS
+ There is no current POSIX standard for the tar command; it appeared in
+ ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 (``POSIX.1'') but was dropped from IEEE Std
+ 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1''). The options used by this implementation were
+ developed by surveying a number of existing tar implementations as well
+ as the old POSIX specification for tar and the current POSIX specifica-
+ tion for pax.
+
+ The ustar and pax interchange file formats are defined by IEEE Std
+ 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'') for the pax command.
+
+HISTORY
+ A tar command appeared in Seventh Edition Unix, which was released in
+ January, 1979. There have been numerous other implementations, many of
+ which extended the file format. John Gilmore's pdtar public-domain
+ implementation (circa November, 1987) was quite influential, and formed
+ the basis of GNU tar. GNU tar was included as the standard system tar in
+ FreeBSD beginning with FreeBSD 1.0.
+
+ This is a complete re-implementation based on the libarchive(3) library.
+
+BUGS
+ This program follows ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 (``POSIX.1'') for the definition
+ of the -l option. Note that GNU tar prior to version 1.15 treated -l as
+ a synonym for the --one-file-system option.
+
+ The -C dir option may differ from historic implementations.
+
+ All archive output is written in correctly-sized blocks, even if the out-
+ put is being compressed. Whether or not the last output block is padded
+ to a full block size varies depending on the format and the output
+ device. For tar and cpio formats, the last block of output is padded to
+ a full block size if the output is being written to standard output or to
+ a character or block device such as a tape drive. If the output is being
+ written to a regular file, the last block will not be padded. Many com-
+ pressors, including gzip(1) and bzip2(1), complain about the null padding
+ when decompressing an archive created by tar, although they still extract
+ it correctly.
+
+ The compression and decompression is implemented internally, so there may
+ be insignificant differences between the compressed output generated by
+ tar -czf - file
+ and that generated by
+ tar -cf - file | gzip
+
+ The default should be to read and write archives to the standard I/O
+ paths, but tradition (and POSIX) dictates otherwise.
+
+ The r and u modes require that the archive be uncompressed and located in
+ a regular file on disk. Other archives can be modified using c mode with
+ the @archive-file extension.
+
+ To archive a file called @foo or -foo you must specify it as ./@foo or
+ ./-foo, respectively.
+
+ In create mode, a leading ./ is always removed. A leading / is stripped
+ unless the -P option is specified.
+
+ There needs to be better support for file selection on both create and
+ extract.
+
+ There is not yet any support for multi-volume archives or for archiving
+ sparse files.
+
+ Converting between dissimilar archive formats (such as tar and cpio)
+ using the @- convention can cause hard link information to be lost.
+ (This is a consequence of the incompatible ways that different archive
+ formats store hardlink information.)
+
+ There are alternative long options for many of the short options that are
+ deliberately not documented.

+NAME
+ cpio -- format of cpio archive files
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The cpio archive format collects any number of files, directories, and
+ other file system objects (symbolic links, device nodes, etc.) into a
+ single stream of bytes.
+
+ General Format
+ Each file system object in a cpio archive comprises a header record with
+ basic numeric metadata followed by the full pathname of the entry and the
+ file data. The header record stores a series of integer values that gen-
+ erally follow the fields in struct stat. (See stat(2) for details.) The
+ variants differ primarily in how they store those integers (binary,
+ octal, or hexadecimal). The header is followed by the pathname of the
+ entry (the length of the pathname is stored in the header) and any file
+ data. The end of the archive is indicated by a special record with the
+ pathname ``TRAILER!!!''.
+
+ PWB format
+ XXX Any documentation of the original PWB/UNIX 1.0 format? XXX
+
+ Old Binary Format
+ The old binary cpio format stores numbers as 2-byte and 4-byte binary
+ values. Each entry begins with a header in the following format:
+
+ struct header_old_cpio {
+ unsigned short c_magic;
+ unsigned short c_dev;
+ unsigned short c_ino;
+ unsigned short c_mode;
+ unsigned short c_uid;
+ unsigned short c_gid;
+ unsigned short c_nlink;
+ unsigned short c_rdev;
+ unsigned short c_mtime[2];
+ unsigned short c_namesize;
+ unsigned short c_filesize[2];
+ };
+
+ The unsigned short fields here are 16-bit integer values; the unsigned
+ int fields are 32-bit integer values. The fields are as follows
+
+ magic The integer value octal 070707. This value can be used to deter-
+ mine whether this archive is written with little-endian or big-
+ endian integers.
+
+ dev, ino
+ The device and inode numbers from the disk. These are used by
+ programs that read cpio archives to determine when two entries
+ refer to the same file. Programs that synthesize cpio archives
+ should be careful to set these to distinct values for each entry.
+
+ mode The mode specifies both the regular permissions and the file
+ type. It consists of several bit fields as follows:
+ 0170000 This masks the file type bits.
+ 0140000 File type value for sockets.
+ 0120000 File type value for symbolic links. For symbolic links,
+ the link body is stored as file data.
+ 0100000 File type value for regular files.
+ 0060000 File type value for block special devices.
+ 0040000 File type value for directories.
+ 0020000 File type value for character special devices.
+ 0010000 File type value for named pipes or FIFOs.
+ 0004000 SUID bit.
+ 0002000 SGID bit.
+ 0001000 Sticky bit. On some systems, this modifies the behavior
+ of executables and/or directories.
+ 0000777 The lower 9 bits specify read/write/execute permissions
+ for world, group, and user following standard POSIX con-
+ ventions.
+
+ uid, gid
+ The numeric user id and group id of the owner.
+
+ nlink The number of links to this file. Directories always have a
+ value of at least two here. Note that hardlinked files include
+ file data with every copy in the archive.
+
+ rdev For block special and character special entries, this field con-
+ tains the associated device number. For all other entry types,
+ it should be set to zero by writers and ignored by readers.
+
+ mtime Modification time of the file, indicated as the number of seconds
+ since the start of the epoch, 00:00:00 UTC January 1, 1970. The
+ four-byte integer is stored with the most-significant 16 bits
+ first followed by the least-significant 16 bits. Each of the two
+ 16 bit values are stored in machine-native byte order.
+
+ namesize
+ The number of bytes in the pathname that follows the header.
+ This count includes the trailing NULL byte.
+
+ filesize
+ The size of the file. Note that this archive format is limited
+ to four gigabyte file sizes. See mtime above for a description
+ of the storage of four-byte integers.
+
+ The pathname immediately follows the fixed header. If the namesize is
+ odd, an additional NULL byte is added after the pathname. The file data
+ is then appended, padded with NULL bytes to an even length.
+
+ Hardlinked files are not given special treatment; the full file contents
+ are included with each copy of the file.
+
+ Portable ASCII Format
+ Version 2 of the Single UNIX Specification (``SUSv2'') standardized an
+ ASCII variant that is portable across all platforms. It is commonly
+ known as the ``old character'' format or as the ``odc'' format. It
+ stores the same numeric fields as the old binary format, but represents
+ them as 6-character or 11-character octal values.
+
+ struct cpio_odc_header {
+ char c_magic[6];
+ char c_dev[6];
+ char c_ino[6];
+ char c_mode[6];
+ char c_uid[6];
+ char c_gid[6];
+ char c_nlink[6];
+ char c_rdev[6];
+ char c_mtime[11];
+ char c_namesize[6];
+ char c_filesize[11];
+ };
+
+ The fields are identical to those in the old binary format. The name and
+ file body follow the fixed header. Unlike the old binary format, there
+ is no additional padding after the pathname or file contents. If the
+ files being archived are themselves entirely ASCII, then the resulting
+ archive will be entirely ASCII, except for the NULL byte that terminates
+ the name field.
+
+ New ASCII Format
+ The "new" ASCII format uses 8-byte hexadecimal fields for all numbers and
+ separates device numbers into separate fields for major and minor num-
+ bers.
+
+ struct cpio_newc_header {
+ char c_magic[6];
+ char c_ino[8];
+ char c_mode[8];
+ char c_uid[8];
+ char c_gid[8];
+ char c_nlink[8];
+ char c_mtime[8];
+ char c_filesize[8];
+ char c_devmajor[8];
+ char c_devminor[8];
+ char c_rdevmajor[8];
+ char c_rdevminor[8];
+ char c_namesize[8];
+ char c_check[8];
+ };
+
+ Except as specified below, the fields here match those specified for the
+ old binary format above.
+
+ magic The string ``070701''.
+
+ check This field is always set to zero by writers and ignored by read-
+ ers. See the next section for more details.
+
+ The pathname is followed by NULL bytes so that the total size of the
+ fixed header plus pathname is a multiple of four. Likewise, the file
+ data is padded to a multiple of four bytes. Note that this format sup-
+ ports only 4 gigabyte files (unlike the older ASCII format, which sup-
+ ports 8 gigabyte files).
+
+ In this format, hardlinked files are handled by setting the filesize to
+ zero for each entry except the last one that appears in the archive.
+
+ New CRC Format
+ The CRC format is identical to the new ASCII format described in the pre-
+ vious section except that the magic field is set to ``070702'' and the
+ check field is set to the sum of all bytes in the file data. This sum is
+ computed treating all bytes as unsigned values and using unsigned arith-
+ metic. Only the least-significant 32 bits of the sum are stored.
+
+ HP variants
+ The cpio implementation distributed with HPUX used XXXX but stored device
+ numbers differently XXX.
+
+ Other Extensions and Variants
+ Sun Solaris uses additional file types to store extended file data,
+ including ACLs and extended attributes, as special entries in cpio ar-
+ chives.
+
+ XXX Others? XXX
+
+BUGS
+ The ``CRC'' format is mis-named, as it uses a simple checksum and not a
+ cyclic redundancy check.
+
+ The old binary format is limited to 16 bits for user id, group id,
+ device, and inode numbers. It is limited to 4 gigabyte file sizes.
+
+ The old ASCII format is limited to 18 bits for the user id, group id,
+ device, and inode numbers. It is limited to 8 gigabyte file sizes.
+
+ The new ASCII format is limited to 4 gigabyte file sizes.
+
+ None of the cpio formats store user or group names, which are essential
+ when moving files between systems with dissimilar user or group number-
+ ing.
+
+ Especially when writing older cpio variants, it may be necessary to map
+ actual device/inode values to synthesized values that fit the available
+ fields. With very large filesystems, this may be necessary even for the
+ newer formats.
+
+SEE ALSO
+ cpio(1), tar(5)
+
+STANDARDS
+ The cpio utility is no longer a part of POSIX or the Single Unix Stan-
+ dard. It last appeared in Version 2 of the Single UNIX Specification
+ (``SUSv2''). It has been supplanted in subsequent standards by pax(1).
+ The portable ASCII format is currently part of the specification for the
+ pax(1) utility.
+
+HISTORY

+ used internally at AT&T. Both the old binary and old character formats

+
+NAME
+ libarchive-formats -- archive formats supported by the libarchive library
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The libarchive(3) library reads and writes a variety of streaming archive
+ formats. Generally speaking, all of these archive formats consist of a
+ series of ``entries''. Each entry stores a single file system object,
+ such as a file, directory, or symbolic link.
+
+ The following provides a brief description of each format supported by
+ libarchive, with some information about recognized extensions or limita-
+ tions of the current library support. Note that just because a format is
+ supported by libarchive does not imply that a program that uses
+ libarchive will support that format. Applications that use libarchive
+ specify which formats they wish to support.
+
+ Tar Formats
+ The libarchive(3) library can read most tar archives. However, it only
+ writes POSIX-standard ``ustar'' and ``pax interchange'' formats.
+
+ All tar formats store each entry in one or more 512-byte records. The
+ first record is used for file metadata, including filename, timestamp,
+ and mode information, and the file data is stored in subsequent records.
+ Later variants have extended this by either appropriating undefined areas
+ of the header record, extending the header to multiple records, or by
+ storing special entries that modify the interpretation of subsequent
+ entries.
+
+ gnutar The libarchive(3) library can read GNU-format tar archives. It
+ currently supports the most popular GNU extensions, including
+ modern long filename and linkname support, as well as atime and
+ ctime data. The libarchive library does not support multi-volume
+ archives, nor the old GNU long filename format. It can read GNU
+ sparse file entries, including the new POSIX-based formats, but
+ cannot write GNU sparse file entries.
+
+ pax The libarchive(3) library can read and write POSIX-compliant pax
+ interchange format archives. Pax interchange format archives are
+ an extension of the older ustar format that adds a separate entry
+ with additional attributes stored as key/value pairs. The pres-
+ ence of this additional entry is the only difference between pax
+ interchange format and the older ustar format. The extended
+ attributes are of unlimited length and are stored as UTF-8 Uni-
+ code strings. Keywords defined in the standard are in all lower-
+ case; vendors are allowed to define custom keys by preceding them
+ with the vendor name in all uppercase. When writing pax ar-
+ chives, libarchive uses many of the SCHILY keys defined by Joerg
+ Schilling's ``star'' archiver. The libarchive library can read
+ most of the SCHILY keys. It silently ignores any keywords that
+ it does not understand.
+
+ restricted pax
+ The libarchive library can also write pax archives in which it
+ attempts to suppress the extended attributes entry whenever pos-
+ sible. The result will be identical to a ustar archive unless
+ the extended attributes entry is required to store a long file
+ name, long linkname, extended ACL, file flags, or if any of the
+ standard ustar data (user name, group name, UID, GID, etc) cannot
+ be fully represented in the ustar header. In all cases, the
+ result can be dearchived by any program that can read POSIX-com-
+ pliant pax interchange format archives. Programs that correctly
+ read ustar format (see below) will also be able to read this for-
+ mat; any extended attributes will be extracted as separate files
+ stored in PaxHeader directories.
+
+ ustar The libarchive library can both read and write this format. This
+ format has the following limitations:
+ o Device major and minor numbers are limited to 21 bits. Nodes
+ with larger numbers will not be added to the archive.
+ o Path names in the archive are limited to 255 bytes. (Shorter
+ if there is no / character in exactly the right place.)
+ o Symbolic links and hard links are stored in the archive with
+ the name of the referenced file. This name is limited to 100
+ bytes.
+ o Extended attributes, file flags, and other extended security
+ information cannot be stored.
+ o Archive entries are limited to 2 gigabytes in size.
+ Note that the pax interchange format has none of these restric-
+ tions.
+
+ The libarchive library can also read a variety of commonly-used exten-
+ sions to the basic tar format. In particular, it supports base-256 val-
+ ues in certain numeric fields. This essentially removes the limitations
+ on file size, modification time, and device numbers.
+
+ The first tar program appeared in Seventh Edition Unix in 1979. The
+ first official standard for the tar file format was the ``ustar'' (Unix
+ Standard Tar) format defined by POSIX in 1988. POSIX.1-2001 extended the
+ ustar format to create the ``pax interchange'' format.
+
+ Cpio Formats
+ The libarchive library can read a number of common cpio variants and can
+ write ``odc'' and ``newc'' format archives. A cpio archive stores each
+ entry as a fixed-size header followed by a variable-length filename and
+ variable-length data. Unlike tar, cpio does only minimal padding of the
+ header or file data. There are a variety of cpio formats, which differ
+ primarily in how they store the initial header: some store the values as
+ octal or hexadecimal numbers in ASCII, others as binary values of varying
+ byte order and length.
+
+ binary The libarchive library can read both big-endian and little-endian
+ variants of the original binary cpio format. This format used
+ 32-bit binary values for file size and mtime, and 16-bit binary
+ values for the other fields.
+
+ odc The libarchive library can both read and write this POSIX-stan-
+ dard format. This format stores the header contents as octal
+ values in ASCII. It is standard, portable, and immune from byte-
+ order confusion. File sizes and mtime are limited to 33 bits
+ (8GB file size), other fields are limited to 18 bits.
+
+ SVR4 The libarchive library can read both CRC and non-CRC variants of
+ this format. The SVR4 format uses eight-digit hexadecimal values
+ for all header fields. This limits file size to 4GB, and also
+ limits the mtime and other fields to 32 bits. The SVR4 format
+ can optionally include a CRC of the file contents, although
+ libarchive does not currently verify this CRC.
+
+ Cpio first appeared in PWB/UNIX 1.0, which was released within AT&T in
+ 1977. PWB/UNIX 1.0 formed the basis of System III Unix, released outside
+ of AT&T in 1981. This makes cpio older than tar, although cpio was not
+ included in Version 7 AT&T Unix. As a result, the tar command became
+ much better known in universities and research groups that used Version
+ 7. The combination of the find and cpio utilities provided very precise
+ control over file selection. Unfortunately, the format has many limita-
+ tions that make it unsuitable for widespread use. Only the POSIX format
+ permits files over 4GB, and its 18-bit limit for most other fields makes
+ it unsuitable for modern systems. In addition, cpio formats only store
+ numeric UID/GID values (not usernames and group names), which can make it
+ very difficult to correctly transfer archives across systems with dissim-
+ ilar user numbering.
+
+ Shar Formats
+ A ``shell archive'' is a shell script that, when executed on a POSIX-com-
+ pliant system, will recreate a collection of file system objects. The
+ libarchive library can write two different kinds of shar archives:
+
+ shar The traditional shar format uses a limited set of POSIX commands,
+ including echo(1), mkdir(1), and sed(1). It is suitable for
+ portably archiving small collections of plain text files. How-
+ ever, it is not generally well-suited for large archives (many
+ implementations of sh(1) have limits on the size of a script) nor
+ should it be used with non-text files.
+
+ shardump
+ This format is similar to shar but encodes files using
+ uuencode(1) so that the result will be a plain text file regard-
+ less of the file contents. It also includes additional shell
+ commands that attempt to reproduce as many file attributes as
+ possible, including owner, mode, and flags. The additional com-
+ mands used to restore file attributes make shardump archives less
+ portable than plain shar archives.
+
+ ISO9660 format
+ Libarchive can read and extract from files containing ISO9660-compliant
+ CDROM images. It also has partial support for Rockridge extensions. In
+ many cases, this can remove the need to burn a physical CDROM. It also
+ avoids security and complexity issues that come with virtual mounts and
+ loopback devices.
+
+ Zip format
+ Libarchive can extract from most zip format archives. It currently only
+ supports uncompressed entries and entries compressed with the ``deflate''
+ algorithm. Older zip compression algorithms are not supported.
+
+ Archive (library) file format
+ The Unix archive format (commonly created by the ar(1) archiver) is a
+ general-purpose format which is used almost exclusively for object files
+ to be read by the link editor ld(1). The ar format has never been stan-
+ dardised. There are two common variants: the GNU format derived from
+ SVR4, and the BSD format, which first appeared in 4.4BSD. Libarchive
+ provides read and write support for both variants.

+NAME
+ libarchive -- functions for reading and writing streaming archives
+
+LIBRARY
+ Streaming Archive Library (libarchive, -larchive)
+
+OVERVIEW
+ The libarchive library provides a flexible interface for reading and
+ writing streaming archive files such as tar and cpio. The library is
+ inherently stream-oriented; readers serially iterate through the archive,
+ writers serially add things to the archive. In particular, note that
+ there is no built-in support for random access nor for in-place modifica-
+ tion.
+
+ When reading an archive, the library automatically detects the format and
+ the compression. The library currently has read support for:
+ o old-style tar archives,
+ o most variants of the POSIX ``ustar'' format,
+ o the POSIX ``pax interchange'' format,
+ o GNU-format tar archives,
+ o most common cpio archive formats,
+ o ISO9660 CD images (with or without RockRidge extensions),
+ o Zip archives.
+ The library automatically detects archives compressed with gzip(1),
+ bzip2(1), or compress(1) and decompresses them transparently.
+
+ When writing an archive, you can specify the compression to be used and
+ the format to use. The library can write
+ o POSIX-standard ``ustar'' archives,
+ o POSIX ``pax interchange format'' archives,
+ o POSIX octet-oriented cpio archives,
+ o two different variants of shar archives.
+ Pax interchange format is an extension of the tar archive format that
+ eliminates essentially all of the limitations of historic tar formats in
+ a standard fashion that is supported by POSIX-compliant pax(1) implemen-
+ tations on many systems as well as several newer implementations of
+ tar(1). Note that the default write format will suppress the pax
+ extended attributes for most entries; explicitly requesting pax format
+ will enable those attributes for all entries.
+
+ The read and write APIs are accessed through the archive_read_XXX() func-
+ tions and the archive_write_XXX() functions, respectively, and either can
+ be used independently of the other.
+
+ The rest of this manual page provides an overview of the library opera-
+ tion. More detailed information can be found in the individual manual
+ pages for each API or utility function.
+
+READING AN ARCHIVE
+ To read an archive, you must first obtain an initialized struct archive
+ object from archive_read_new(). You can then modify this object for the
+ desired operations with the various archive_read_set_XXX() and
+ archive_read_support_XXX() functions. In particular, you will need to
+ invoke appropriate archive_read_support_XXX() functions to enable the
+ corresponding compression and format support. Note that these latter
+ functions perform two distinct operations: they cause the corresponding
+ support code to be linked into your program, and they enable the corre-
+ sponding auto-detect code. Unless you have specific constraints, you
+ will generally want to invoke archive_read_support_compression_all() and
+ archive_read_support_format_all() to enable auto-detect for all formats
+ and compression types currently supported by the library.
+
+ Once you have prepared the struct archive object, you call
+ archive_read_open() to actually open the archive and prepare it for read-
+ ing. There are several variants of this function; the most basic expects
+ you to provide pointers to several functions that can provide blocks of
+ bytes from the archive. There are convenience forms that allow you to
+ specify a filename, file descriptor, FILE * object, or a block of memory
+ from which to read the archive data. Note that the core library makes no
+ assumptions about the size of the blocks read; callback functions are
+ free to read whatever block size is most appropriate for the medium.
+
+ Each archive entry consists of a header followed by a certain amount of
+ data. You can obtain the next header with archive_read_next_header(),
+ which returns a pointer to an struct archive_entry structure with infor-
+ mation about the current archive element. If the entry is a regular
+ file, then the header will be followed by the file data. You can use
+ archive_read_data() (which works much like the read(2) system call) to
+ read this data from the archive. You may prefer to use the higher-level
+ archive_read_data_skip(), which reads and discards the data for this
+ entry, archive_read_data_to_buffer(), which reads the data into an in-
+ memory buffer, archive_read_data_to_file(), which copies the data to the
+ provided file descriptor, or archive_read_extract(), which recreates the
+ specified entry on disk and copies data from the archive. In particular,
+ note that archive_read_extract() uses the struct archive_entry structure
+ that you provide it, which may differ from the entry just read from the
+ archive. In particular, many applications will want to override the
+ pathname, file permissions, or ownership.
+
+ Once you have finished reading data from the archive, you should call
+ archive_read_close() to close the archive, then call
+ archive_read_finish() to release all resources, including all memory
+ allocated by the library.
+
+ The archive_read(3) manual page provides more detailed calling informa-
+ tion for this API.
+
+WRITING AN ARCHIVE
+ You use a similar process to write an archive. The archive_write_new()
+ function creates an archive object useful for writing, the various
+ archive_write_set_XXX() functions are used to set parameters for writing
+ the archive, and archive_write_open() completes the setup and opens the
+ archive for writing.
+
+ Individual archive entries are written in a three-step process: You first
+ initialize a struct archive_entry structure with information about the
+ new entry. At a minimum, you should set the pathname of the entry and
+ provide a struct stat with a valid st_mode field, which specifies the
+ type of object and st_size field, which specifies the size of the data
+ portion of the object. The archive_write_header() function actually
+ writes the header data to the archive. You can then use
+ archive_write_data() to write the actual data.
+
+ After all entries have been written, use the archive_write_finish() func-
+ tion to release all resources.
+
+ The archive_write(3) manual page provides more detailed calling informa-
+ tion for this API.
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Detailed descriptions of each function are provided by the corresponding
+ manual pages.
+
+ All of the functions utilize an opaque struct archive datatype that pro-
+ vides access to the archive contents.
+
+ The struct archive_entry structure contains a complete description of a
+ single archive entry. It uses an opaque interface that is fully docu-
+ mented in archive_entry(3).
+
+ Users familiar with historic formats should be aware that the newer vari-
+ ants have eliminated most restrictions on the length of textual fields.
+ Clients should not assume that filenames, link names, user names, or
+ group names are limited in length. In particular, pax interchange format
+ can easily accommodate pathnames in arbitrary character sets that exceed
+ PATH_MAX.
+
+RETURN VALUES
+ Most functions return zero on success, non-zero on error. The return
+ value indicates the general severity of the error, ranging from
+ ARCHIVE_WARN, which indicates a minor problem that should probably be
+ reported to the user, to ARCHIVE_FATAL, which indicates a serious problem
+ that will prevent any further operations on this archive. On error, the
+ archive_errno() function can be used to retrieve a numeric error code
+ (see errno(2)). The archive_error_string() returns a textual error mes-
+ sage suitable for display.
+
+ archive_read_new() and archive_write_new() return pointers to an allo-
+ cated and initialized struct archive object.
+
+ archive_read_data() and archive_write_data() return a count of the number
+ of bytes actually read or written. A value of zero indicates the end of
+ the data for this entry. A negative value indicates an error, in which
+ case the archive_errno() and archive_error_string() functions can be used
+ to obtain more information.
+
+ENVIRONMENT
+ There are character set conversions within the archive_entry(3) functions
+ that are impacted by the currently-selected locale.

+
+NAME
+ libarchive_internals -- description of libarchive internal interfaces
+
+OVERVIEW
+ The libarchive library provides a flexible interface for reading and
+ writing streaming archive files such as tar and cpio. Internally, it
+ follows a modular layered design that should make it easy to add new ar-
+ chive and compression formats.
+
+GENERAL ARCHITECTURE
+ Externally, libarchive exposes most operations through an opaque, object-
+ style interface. The archive_entry(1) objects store information about a
+ single filesystem object. The rest of the library provides facilities to
+ write archive_entry(1) objects to archive files, read them from archive
+ files, and write them to disk. (There are plans to add a facility to
+ read archive_entry(1) objects from disk as well.)
+
+ The read and write APIs each have four layers: a public API layer, a for-
+ mat layer that understands the archive file format, a compression layer,
+ and an I/O layer. The I/O layer is completely exposed to clients who can
+ replace it entirely with their own functions.
+
+ In order to provide as much consistency as possible for clients, some
+ public functions are virtualized. Eventually, it should be possible for
+ clients to open an archive or disk writer, and then use a single set of
+ code to select and write entries, regardless of the target.
+
+READ ARCHITECTURE
+ From the outside, clients use the archive_read(3) API to manipulate an
+ archive object to read entries and bodies from an archive stream. Inter-
+ nally, the archive object is cast to an archive_read object, which holds
+ all read-specific data. The API has four layers: The lowest layer is the
+ I/O layer. This layer can be overridden by clients, but most clients use
+ the packaged I/O callbacks provided, for example, by
+ archive_read_open_memory(3), and archive_read_open_fd(3). The compres-
+ sion layer calls the I/O layer to read bytes and decompresses them for
+ the format layer. The format layer unpacks a stream of uncompressed
+ bytes and creates archive_entry objects from the incoming data. The API
+ layer tracks overall state (for example, it prevents clients from reading
+ data before reading a header) and invokes the format and compression
+ layer operations through registered function pointers. In particular,
+ the API layer drives the format-detection process: When opening the ar-
+ chive, it reads an initial block of data and offers it to each registered
+ compression handler. The one with the highest bid is initialized with
+ the first block. Similarly, the format handlers are polled to see which
+ handler is the best for each archive. (Prior to 2.4.0, the format bid-
+ ders were invoked for each entry, but this design hindered error recov-
+ ery.)
+
+ I/O Layer and Client Callbacks
+ The read API goes to some lengths to be nice to clients. As a result,
+ there are few restrictions on the behavior of the client callbacks.
+
+ The client read callback is expected to provide a block of data on each
+ call. A zero-length return does indicate end of file, but otherwise
+ blocks may be as small as one byte or as large as the entire file. In
+ particular, blocks may be of different sizes.
+
+ The client skip callback returns the number of bytes actually skipped,
+ which may be much smaller than the skip requested. The only requirement
+ is that the skip not be larger. In particular, clients are allowed to
+ return zero for any skip that they don't want to handle. The skip call-
+ back must never be invoked with a negative value.
+
+ Keep in mind that not all clients are reading from disk: clients reading
+ from networks may provide different-sized blocks on every request and
+ cannot skip at all; advanced clients may use mmap(2) to read the entire
+ file into memory at once and return the entire file to libarchive as a
+ single block; other clients may begin asynchronous I/O operations for the
+ next block on each request.
+
+ Decompresssion Layer
+ The decompression layer not only handles decompression, it also buffers
+ data so that the format handlers see a much nicer I/O model. The decom-
+ pression API is a two stage peek/consume model. A read_ahead request
+ specifies a minimum read amount; the decompression layer must provide a
+ pointer to at least that much data. If more data is immediately avail-
+ able, it should return more: the format layer handles bulk data reads by
+ asking for a minimum of one byte and then copying as much data as is
+ available.
+
+ A subsequent call to the consume() function advances the read pointer.
+ Note that data returned from a read_ahead() call is guaranteed to remain
+ in place until the next call to read_ahead(). Intervening calls to
+ consume() should not cause the data to move.
+
+ Skip requests must always be handled exactly. Decompression handlers
+ that cannot seek forward should not register a skip handler; the API
+ layer fills in a generic skip handler that reads and discards data.
+
+ A decompression handler has a specific lifecycle:
+ Registration/Configuration
+ When the client invokes the public support function, the decom-
+ pression handler invokes the internal
+ __archive_read_register_compression() function to provide bid and
+ initialization functions. This function returns NULL on error or
+ else a pointer to a struct decompressor_t. This structure con-
+ tains a void * config slot that can be used for storing any cus-
+ tomization information.
+ Bid The bid function is invoked with a pointer and size of a block of
+ data. The decompressor can access its config data through the
+ decompressor element of the archive_read object. The bid func-
+ tion is otherwise stateless. In particular, it must not perform
+ any I/O operations.
+
+ The value returned by the bid function indicates its suitability
+ for handling this data stream. A bid of zero will ensure that
+ this decompressor is never invoked. Return zero if magic number
+ checks fail. Otherwise, your initial implementation should
+ return the number of bits actually checked. For example, if you
+ verify two full bytes and three bits of another byte, bid 19.
+ Note that the initial block may be very short; be careful to only
+ inspect the data you are given. (The current decompressors
+ require two bytes for correct bidding.)
+ Initialize
+ The winning bidder will have its init function called. This
+ function should initialize the remaining slots of the struct
+ decompressor_t object pointed to by the decompressor element of
+ the archive_read object. In particular, it should allocate any
+ working data it needs in the data slot of that structure. The
+ init function is called with the block of data that was used for
+ tasting. At this point, the decompressor is responsible for all
+ I/O requests to the client callbacks. The decompressor is free
+ to read more data as and when necessary.
+ Satisfy I/O requests
+ The format handler will invoke the read_ahead, consume, and skip
+ functions as needed.
+ Finish The finish method is called only once when the archive is closed.
+ It should release anything stored in the data and config slots of
+ the decompressor object. It should not invoke the client close
+ callback.
+
+ Format Layer
+ The read formats have a similar lifecycle to the decompression handlers:
+ Registration
+ Allocate your private data and initialize your pointers.
+ Bid Formats bid by invoking the read_ahead() decompression method but
+ not calling the consume() method. This allows each bidder to
+ look ahead in the input stream. Bidders should not look further
+ ahead than necessary, as long look aheads put pressure on the
+ decompression layer to buffer lots of data. Most formats only
+ require a few hundred bytes of look ahead; look aheads of a few
+ kilobytes are reasonable. (The ISO9660 reader sometimes looks
+ ahead by 48k, which should be considered an upper limit.)
+ Read header
+ The header read is usually the most complex part of any format.
+ There are a few strategies worth mentioning: For formats such as
+ tar or cpio, reading and parsing the header is straightforward
+ since headers alternate with data. For formats that store all
+ header data at the beginning of the file, the first header read
+ request may have to read all headers into memory and store that
+ data, sorted by the location of the file data. Subsequent header
+ read requests will skip forward to the beginning of the file data
+ and return the corresponding header.
+ Read Data
+ The read data interface supports sparse files; this requires that
+ each call return a block of data specifying the file offset and
+ size. This may require you to carefully track the location so
+ that you can return accurate file offsets for each read. Remem-
+ ber that the decompressor will return as much data as it has.
+ Generally, you will want to request one byte, examine the return
+ value to see how much data is available, and possibly trim that
+ to the amount you can use. You should invoke consume for each
+ block just before you return it.
+ Skip All Data
+ The skip data call should skip over all file data and trailing
+ padding. This is called automatically by the API layer just
+ before each header read. It is also called in response to the
+ client calling the public data_skip() function.
+ Cleanup
+ On cleanup, the format should release all of its allocated mem-
+ ory.
+
+ API Layer
+ XXX to do XXX
+
+WRITE ARCHITECTURE
+ The write API has a similar set of four layers: an API layer, a format
+ layer, a compression layer, and an I/O layer. The registration here is
+ much simpler because only one format and one compression can be regis-
+ tered at a time.

+

+
+WRITE_DISK ARCHITECTURE
+ The write_disk API is intended to look just like the write API to
+ clients. Since it does not handle multiple formats or compression, it is
+ not layered internally.
+
+GENERAL SERVICES
+ The archive_read, archive_write, and archive_write_disk objects all con-
+ tain an initial archive object which provides common support for a set of
+ standard services. (Recall that ANSI/ISO C90 guarantees that you can
+ cast freely between a pointer to a structure and a pointer to the first
+ element of that structure.) The archive object has a magic value that
+ indicates which API this object is associated with, slots for storing
+ error information, and function pointers for virtualized API functions.
+
+MISCELLANEOUS NOTES
+ Connecting existing archiving libraries into libarchive is generally
+ quite difficult. In particular, many existing libraries strongly assume
+ that you are reading from a file; they seek forwards and backwards as
+ necessary to locate various pieces of information. In contrast,
+ libarchive never seeks backwards in its input, which sometimes requires
+ very different approaches.
+
+ For example, libarchive's ISO9660 support operates very differently from
+ most ISO9660 readers. The libarchive support utilizes a work-queue
+ design that keeps a list of known entries sorted by their location in the
+ input. Whenever libarchive's ISO9660 implementation is asked for the
+ next header, checks this list to find the next item on the disk. Direc-
+ tories are parsed when they are encountered and new items are added to
+ the list. This design relies heavily on the ISO9660 image being opti-
+ mized so that directories always occur earlier on the disk than the files
+ they describe.
+
+ Depending on the specific format, such approaches may not be possible.
+ The ZIP format specification, for example, allows archivers to store key
+ information only at the end of the file. In theory, it is possible to
+ create ZIP archives that cannot be read without seeking. Fortunately,
+ such archives are very rare, and libarchive can read most ZIP archives,
+ though it cannot always extract as much information as a dedicated ZIP
+ program.

+
+NAME
+ mtree -- format of mtree dir heirarchy files
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The mtree format is a textual format that describes a collection of
+ filesystem objects. Such files are typically used to create or verify
+ directory heirarchies.
+
+ General Format
+ An mtree file consists of a series of lines, each providing information
+ about a single filesystem object. Leading whitespace is always ignored.
+
+ When encoding file or pathnames, any backslash character or character
+ outside of the 95 printable ASCII characters must be encoded as a a back-
+ slash followed by three octal digits. When reading mtree files, any
+ appearance of a backslash followed by three octal digits should be con-
+ verted into the corresponding character.
+
+ Each line is interpreted independently as one of the following types:
+
+ Signature The first line of any mtree file must begin with ``#mtree''.
+ If a file contains any full path entries, the first line
+ should begin with ``#mtree v2.0'', otherwise, the first line
+ should begin with ``#mtree v1.0''.
+
+ Blank Blank lines are ignored.
+
+ Comment Lines beginning with # are ignored.
+
+ Special Lines beginning with / are special commands that influence
+ the interpretation of later lines.
+
+ Relative If the first whitespace-delimited word has no / characters,
+ it is the name of a file in the current directory. Any rela-
+ tive entry that describes a directory changes the current
+ directory.
+
+ dot-dot As a special case, a relative entry with the filename ..
+ changes the current directory to the parent directory.
+ Options on dot-dot entries are always ignored.
+
+ Full If the first whitespace-delimited word has a / character
+ after the first character, it is the pathname of a file rela-
+ tive to the starting directory. There can be multiple full
+ entries describing the same file.
+
+ Some tools that process mtree files may require that multiple lines
+ describing the same file occur consecutively. It is not permitted for
+ the same file to be mentioned using both a relative and a full file spec-
+ ification.
+
+ Special commands
+ Two special commands are currently defined:
+
+ /set This command defines default values for one or more keywords.
+ It is followed on the same line by one or more whitespace-
+ separated keyword definitions. These definitions apply to
+ all following files that do not specify a value for that key-
+ word.
+
+ /unset This command removes any default value set by a previous /set
+ command. It is followed on the same line by one or more key-
+ words separated by whitespace.
+
+ Keywords
+ After the filename, a full or relative entry consists of zero or more
+ whitespace-separated keyword definitions. Each such definitions consists
+ of a key from the following list immediately followed by an '=' sign and
+ a value. Software programs reading mtree files should warn about unrec-
+ ognized keywords.
+
+ Currently supported keywords are as follows:
+
+ cksum The checksum of the file using the default algorithm speci-
+ fied by the cksum(1) utility.
+
+ contents The full pathname of a file whose contents should be compared
+ to the contents of this file.
+
+ flags The file flags as a symbolic name. See chflags(1) for infor-
+ mation on these names. If no flags are to be set the string
+ ``none'' may be used to override the current default.
+
+ ignore Ignore any file hierarchy below this file.
+
+ gid The file group as a numeric value.
+
+ gname The file group as a symbolic name.
+
+ md5 The MD5 message digest of the file.
+
+ md5digest A synonym for md5.
+
+ sha1 The FIPS 160-1 (``SHA-1'') message digest of the file.
+
+ sha1digest A synonym for sha1.
+
+ sha256 The FIPS 180-2 (``SHA-256'') message digest of the file.
+
+ sha256digest
+ A synonym for sha256.
+
+ ripemd160digest
+ The RIPEMD160 message digest of the file.
+
+ rmd160 A synonym for ripemd160digest.
+
+ rmd160digest

+NAME
+ tar -- format of tape archive files
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The tar archive format collects any number of files, directories, and
+ other file system objects (symbolic links, device nodes, etc.) into a
+ single stream of bytes. The format was originally designed to be used
+ with tape drives that operate with fixed-size blocks, but is widely used
+ as a general packaging mechanism.
+
+ General Format
+ A tar archive consists of a series of 512-byte records. Each file system
+ object requires a header record which stores basic metadata (pathname,
+ owner, permissions, etc.) and zero or more records containing any file
+ data. The end of the archive is indicated by two records consisting
+ entirely of zero bytes.
+
+ For compatibility with tape drives that use fixed block sizes, programs
+ that read or write tar files always read or write a fixed number of
+ records with each I/O operation. These ``blocks'' are always a multiple
+ of the record size. The most common block size--and the maximum sup-
+ ported by historic implementations--is 10240 bytes or 20 records. (Note:
+ the terms ``block'' and ``record'' here are not entirely standard; this
+ document follows the convention established by John Gilmore in document-
+ ing pdtar.)
+
+ Old-Style Archive Format
+ The original tar archive format has been extended many times to include
+ additional information that various implementors found necessary. This
+ section describes the variant implemented by the tar command included in
+ Version 7 AT&T UNIX, which is one of the earliest widely-used versions of
+ the tar program.
+
+ The header record for an old-style tar archive consists of the following:
+
+ struct header_old_tar {
+ char name[100];
+ char mode[8];
+ char uid[8];
+ char gid[8];
+ char size[12];
+ char mtime[12];
+ char checksum[8];
+ char linkflag[1];
+ char linkname[100];
+ char pad[255];
+ };
+ All unused bytes in the header record are filled with nulls.
+
+ name Pathname, stored as a null-terminated string. Early tar imple-
+ mentations only stored regular files (including hardlinks to
+ those files). One common early convention used a trailing "/"
+ character to indicate a directory name, allowing directory per-
+ missions and owner information to be archived and restored.
+
+ mode File mode, stored as an octal number in ASCII.
+
+ uid, gid
+ User id and group id of owner, as octal numbers in ASCII.
+
+ size Size of file, as octal number in ASCII. For regular files only,
+ this indicates the amount of data that follows the header. In
+ particular, this field was ignored by early tar implementations
+ when extracting hardlinks. Modern writers should always store a
+ zero length for hardlink entries.
+
+ mtime Modification time of file, as an octal number in ASCII. This
+ indicates the number of seconds since the start of the epoch,
+ 00:00:00 UTC January 1, 1970. Note that negative values should
+ be avoided here, as they are handled inconsistently.
+
+ checksum
+ Header checksum, stored as an octal number in ASCII. To compute
+ the checksum, set the checksum field to all spaces, then sum all
+ bytes in the header using unsigned arithmetic. This field should
+ be stored as six octal digits followed by a null and a space
+ character. Note that many early implementations of tar used
+ signed arithmetic for the checksum field, which can cause inter-
+ operability problems when transferring archives between systems.
+ Modern robust readers compute the checksum both ways and accept
+ the header if either computation matches.
+
+ linkflag, linkname
+ In order to preserve hardlinks and conserve tape, a file with
+ multiple links is only written to the archive the first time it
+ is encountered. The next time it is encountered, the linkflag is
+ set to an ASCII `1' and the linkname field holds the first name
+ under which this file appears. (Note that regular files have a
+ null value in the linkflag field.)
+
+ Early tar implementations varied in how they terminated these fields.
+ The tar command in Version 7 AT&T UNIX used the following conventions
+ (this is also documented in early BSD manpages): the pathname must be
+ null-terminated; the mode, uid, and gid fields must end in a space and a
+ null byte; the size and mtime fields must end in a space; the checksum is
+ terminated by a null and a space. Early implementations filled the
+ numeric fields with leading spaces. This seems to have been common prac-
+ tice until the IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (``POSIX.1'') standard was released.
+ For best portability, modern implementations should fill the numeric
+ fields with leading zeros.
+
+ Pre-POSIX Archives
+ An early draft of IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (``POSIX.1'') served as the basis
+ for John Gilmore's pdtar program and many system implementations from the
+ late 1980s and early 1990s. These archives generally follow the POSIX
+ ustar format described below with the following variations:
+ o The magic value is ``ustar '' (note the following space). The
+ version field contains a space character followed by a null.
+ o The numeric fields are generally filled with leading spaces (not
+ leading zeros as recommended in the final standard).
+ o The prefix field is often not used, limiting pathnames to the 100
+ characters of old-style archives.
+
+ POSIX ustar Archives
+ IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (``POSIX.1'') defined a standard tar file format to
+ be read and written by compliant implementations of tar(1). This format
+ is often called the ``ustar'' format, after the magic value used in the
+ header. (The name is an acronym for ``Unix Standard TAR''.) It extends
+ the historic format with new fields:
+
+ struct header_posix_ustar {
+ char name[100];
+ char mode[8];
+ char uid[8];
+ char gid[8];
+ char size[12];
+ char mtime[12];
+ char checksum[8];
+ char typeflag[1];
+ char linkname[100];
+ char magic[6];
+ char version[2];
+ char uname[32];
+ char gname[32];
+ char devmajor[8];
+ char devminor[8];
+ char prefix[155];
+ char pad[12];
+ };
+
+ typeflag
+ Type of entry. POSIX extended the earlier linkflag field with
+ several new type values:
+ ``0'' Regular file. NULL should be treated as a synonym, for
+ compatibility purposes.
+ ``1'' Hard link.
+ ``2'' Symbolic link.
+ ``3'' Character device node.
+ ``4'' Block device node.
+ ``5'' Directory.
+ ``6'' FIFO node.
+ ``7'' Reserved.
+ Other A POSIX-compliant implementation must treat any unrecog-
+ nized typeflag value as a regular file. In particular,
+ writers should ensure that all entries have a valid file-
+ name so that they can be restored by readers that do not
+ support the corresponding extension. Uppercase letters
+ "A" through "Z" are reserved for custom extensions. Note
+ that sockets and whiteout entries are not archivable.
+ It is worth noting that the size field, in particular, has dif-
+ ferent meanings depending on the type. For regular files, of
+ course, it indicates the amount of data following the header.
+ For directories, it may be used to indicate the total size of all
+ files in the directory, for use by operating systems that pre-
+ allocate directory space. For all other types, it should be set
+ to zero by writers and ignored by readers.
+
+ magic Contains the magic value ``ustar'' followed by a NULL byte to
+ indicate that this is a POSIX standard archive. Full compliance
+ requires the uname and gname fields be properly set.
+
+ version
+ Version. This should be ``00'' (two copies of the ASCII digit
+ zero) for POSIX standard archives.
+
+ uname, gname
+ User and group names, as null-terminated ASCII strings. These
+ should be used in preference to the uid/gid values when they are
+ set and the corresponding names exist on the system.
+
+ devmajor, devminor
+ Major and minor numbers for character device or block device
+ entry.
+
+ prefix First part of pathname. If the pathname is too long to fit in
+ the 100 bytes provided by the standard format, it can be split at
+ any / character with the first portion going here. If the prefix
+ field is not empty, the reader will prepend the prefix value and
+ a / character to the regular name field to obtain the full path-
+ name.
+
+ Note that all unused bytes must be set to NULL.
+
+ Field termination is specified slightly differently by POSIX than by pre-
+ vious implementations. The magic, uname, and gname fields must have a
+ trailing NULL. The pathname, linkname, and prefix fields must have a
+ trailing NULL unless they fill the entire field. (In particular, it is
+ possible to store a 256-character pathname if it happens to have a / as
+ the 156th character.) POSIX requires numeric fields to be zero-padded in
+ the front, and allows them to be terminated with either space or NULL
+ characters.
+
+ Currently, most tar implementations comply with the ustar format, occa-
+ sionally extending it by adding new fields to the blank area at the end
+ of the header record.
+
+ Pax Interchange Format
+ There are many attributes that cannot be portably stored in a POSIX ustar
+ archive. IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'') defined a ``pax interchange
+ format'' that uses two new types of entries to hold text-formatted meta-
+ data that applies to following entries. Note that a pax interchange for-
+ mat archive is a ustar archive in every respect. The new data is stored
+ in ustar-compatible archive entries that use the ``x'' or ``g'' typeflag.
+ In particular, older implementations that do not fully support these
+ extensions will extract the metadata into regular files, where the meta-
+ data can be examined as necessary.
+
+ An entry in a pax interchange format archive consists of one or two stan-
+ dard ustar entries, each with its own header and data. The first
+ optional entry stores the extended attributes for the following entry.
+ This optional first entry has an "x" typeflag and a size field that indi-
+ cates the total size of the extended attributes. The extended attributes
+ themselves are stored as a series of text-format lines encoded in the
+ portable UTF-8 encoding. Each line consists of a decimal number, a
+ space, a key string, an equals sign, a value string, and a new line. The
+ decimal number indicates the length of the entire line, including the
+ initial length field and the trailing newline. An example of such a
+ field is:
+ 25 ctime=1084839148.1212\n
+ Keys in all lowercase are standard keys. Vendors can add their own keys
+ by prefixing them with an all uppercase vendor name and a period. Note
+ that, unlike the historic header, numeric values are stored using deci-
+ mal, not octal. A description of some common keys follows:
+
+ atime, ctime, mtime
+ File access, inode change, and modification times. These fields
+ can be negative or include a decimal point and a fractional
+ value.
+
+ uname, uid, gname, gid
+ User name, group name, and numeric UID and GID values. The user
+ name and group name stored here are encoded in UTF8 and can thus
+ include non-ASCII characters. The UID and GID fields can be of
+ arbitrary length.
+
+ linkpath
+ The full path of the linked-to file. Note that this is encoded
+ in UTF8 and can thus include non-ASCII characters.
+
+ path The full pathname of the entry. Note that this is encoded in
+ UTF8 and can thus include non-ASCII characters.
+
+ realtime.*, security.*
+ These keys are reserved and may be used for future standardiza-
+ tion.
+
+ size The size of the file. Note that there is no length limit on this
+ field, allowing conforming archives to store files much larger
+ than the historic 8GB limit.
+
+ SCHILY.*
+ Vendor-specific attributes used by Joerg Schilling's star imple-
+ mentation.
+
+ SCHILY.acl.access, SCHILY.acl.default
+ Stores the access and default ACLs as textual strings in a format
+ that is an extension of the format specified by POSIX.1e draft
+ 17. In particular, each user or group access specification can
+ include a fourth colon-separated field with the numeric UID or
+ GID. This allows ACLs to be restored on systems that may not
+ have complete user or group information available (such as when
+ NIS/YP or LDAP services are temporarily unavailable).
+
+ SCHILY.devminor, SCHILY.devmajor
+ The full minor and major numbers for device nodes.
+
+ SCHILY.dev, SCHILY.ino, SCHILY.nlinks
+ The device number, inode number, and link count for the entry.
+ In particular, note that a pax interchange format archive using
+ Joerg Schilling's SCHILY.* extensions can store all of the data
+ from struct stat.
+
+ LIBARCHIVE.xattr.namespace.key
+ Libarchive stores POSIX.1e-style extended attributes using keys
+ of this form. The key value is URL-encoded: All non-ASCII char-
+ acters and the two special characters ``='' and ``%'' are encoded
+ as ``%'' followed by two uppercase hexadecimal digits. The value
+ of this key is the extended attribute value encoded in base 64.
+ XXX Detail the base-64 format here XXX
+
+ VENDOR.*
+ XXX document other vendor-specific extensions XXX
+
+ Any values stored in an extended attribute override the corresponding
+ values in the regular tar header. Note that compliant readers should
+ ignore the regular fields when they are overridden. This is important,
+ as existing archivers are known to store non-compliant values in the
+ standard header fields in this situation. There are no limits on length
+ for any of these fields. In particular, numeric fields can be arbitrar-
+ ily large. All text fields are encoded in UTF8. Compliant writers
+ should store only portable 7-bit ASCII characters in the standard ustar
+ header and use extended attributes whenever a text value contains non-
+ ASCII characters.
+
+ In addition to the x entry described above, the pax interchange format
+ also supports a g entry. The g entry is identical in format, but speci-
+ fies attributes that serve as defaults for all subsequent archive
+ entries. The g entry is not widely used.
+
+ Besides the new x and g entries, the pax interchange format has a few
+ other minor variations from the earlier ustar format. The most troubling
+ one is that hardlinks are permitted to have data following them. This
+ allows readers to restore any hardlink to a file without having to rewind
+ the archive to find an earlier entry. However, it creates complications
+ for robust readers, as it is no longer clear whether or not they should
+ ignore the size field for hardlink entries.
+
+ GNU Tar Archives
+ The GNU tar program started with a pre-POSIX format similar to that
+ described earlier and has extended it using several different mechanisms:
+ It added new fields to the empty space in the header (some of which was
+ later used by POSIX for conflicting purposes); it allowed the header to
+ be continued over multiple records; and it defined new entries that mod-
+ ify following entries (similar in principle to the x entry described
+ above, but each GNU special entry is single-purpose, unlike the general-
+ purpose x entry). As a result, GNU tar archives are not POSIX compati-
+ ble, although more lenient POSIX-compliant readers can successfully
+ extract most GNU tar archives.
+
+ struct header_gnu_tar {
+ char name[100];
+ char mode[8];
+ char uid[8];
+ char gid[8];
+ char size[12];
+ char mtime[12];
+ char checksum[8];
+ char typeflag[1];
+ char linkname[100];
+ char magic[6];
+ char version[2];
+ char uname[32];
+ char gname[32];
+ char devmajor[8];
+ char devminor[8];
+ char atime[12];
+ char ctime[12];
+ char offset[12];
+ char longnames[4];
+ char unused[1];
+ struct {
+ char offset[12];
+ char numbytes[12];
+ } sparse[4];
+ char isextended[1];
+ char realsize[12];
+ char pad[17];
+ };
+
+ typeflag
+ GNU tar uses the following special entry types, in addition to
+ those defined by POSIX:
+
+ 7 GNU tar treats type "7" records identically to type "0"
+ records, except on one obscure RTOS where they are used
+ to indicate the pre-allocation of a contiguous file on
+ disk.
+
+ D This indicates a directory entry. Unlike the POSIX-stan-
+ dard "5" typeflag, the header is followed by data records
+ listing the names of files in this directory. Each name
+ is preceded by an ASCII "Y" if the file is stored in this
+ archive or "N" if the file is not stored in this archive.
+ Each name is terminated with a null, and an extra null
+ marks the end of the name list. The purpose of this
+ entry is to support incremental backups; a program
+ restoring from such an archive may wish to delete files
+ on disk that did not exist in the directory when the ar-
+ chive was made.
+
+ Note that the "D" typeflag specifically violates POSIX,
+ which requires that unrecognized typeflags be restored as
+ normal files. In this case, restoring the "D" entry as a
+ file could interfere with subsequent creation of the
+ like-named directory.
+
+ K The data for this entry is a long linkname for the fol-
+ lowing regular entry.
+
+ L The data for this entry is a long pathname for the fol-
+ lowing regular entry.
+
+ M This is a continuation of the last file on the previous
+ volume. GNU multi-volume archives guarantee that each
+ volume begins with a valid entry header. To ensure this,
+ a file may be split, with part stored at the end of one
+ volume, and part stored at the beginning of the next vol-
+ ume. The "M" typeflag indicates that this entry contin-
+ ues an existing file. Such entries can only occur as the
+ first or second entry in an archive (the latter only if
+ the first entry is a volume label). The size field spec-
+ ifies the size of this entry. The offset field at bytes
+ 369-380 specifies the offset where this file fragment
+ begins. The realsize field specifies the total size of
+ the file (which must equal size plus offset). When
+ extracting, GNU tar checks that the header file name is
+ the one it is expecting, that the header offset is in the
+ correct sequence, and that the sum of offset and size is
+ equal to realsize. FreeBSD's version of GNU tar does not
+ handle the corner case of an archive's being continued in
+ the middle of a long name or other extension header.
+
+ N Type "N" records are no longer generated by GNU tar.
+ They contained a list of files to be renamed or symlinked
+ after extraction; this was originally used to support
+ long names. The contents of this record are a text
+ description of the operations to be done, in the form
+ ``Rename %s to %s\n'' or ``Symlink %s to %s\n''; in
+ either case, both filenames are escaped using K&R C syn-
+ tax.
+
+ S This is a ``sparse'' regular file. Sparse files are
+ stored as a series of fragments. The header contains a
+ list of fragment offset/length pairs. If more than four
+ such entries are required, the header is extended as nec-
+ essary with ``extra'' header extensions (an older format
+ that is no longer used), or ``sparse'' extensions.
+
+ V The name field should be interpreted as a tape/volume
+ header name. This entry should generally be ignored on
+ extraction.
+
+ magic The magic field holds the five characters ``ustar'' followed by a
+ space. Note that POSIX ustar archives have a trailing null.
+
+ version
+ The version field holds a space character followed by a null.
+ Note that POSIX ustar archives use two copies of the ASCII digit
+ ``0''.
+
+ atime, ctime
+ The time the file was last accessed and the time of last change
+ of file information, stored in octal as with mtime.
+
+ longnames
+ This field is apparently no longer used.
+
+ Sparse offset / numbytes
+ Each such structure specifies a single fragment of a sparse file.
+ The two fields store values as octal numbers. The fragments are
+ each padded to a multiple of 512 bytes in the archive. On
+ extraction, the list of fragments is collected from the header
+ (including any extension headers), and the data is then read and
+ written to the file at appropriate offsets.
+
+ isextended
+ If this is set to non-zero, the header will be followed by addi-
+ tional ``sparse header'' records. Each such record contains
+ information about as many as 21 additional sparse blocks as shown
+ here:
+
+ struct gnu_sparse_header {
+ struct {
+ char offset[12];
+ char numbytes[12];
+ } sparse[21];
+ char isextended[1];
+ char padding[7];
+ };
+
+ realsize
+ A binary representation of the file's complete size, with a much
+ larger range than the POSIX file size. In particular, with M
+ type files, the current entry is only a portion of the file. In
+ that case, the POSIX size field will indicate the size of this
+ entry; the realsize field will indicate the total size of the
+ file.
+
+ Solaris Tar
+ XXX More Details Needed XXX
+
+ Solaris tar (beginning with SunOS XXX 5.7 ?? XXX) supports an
+ ``extended'' format that is fundamentally similar to pax interchange for-
+ mat, with the following differences:
+ o Extended attributes are stored in an entry whose type is X, not
+ x, as used by pax interchange format. The detailed format of
+ this entry appears to be the same as detailed above for the x
+ entry.
+ o An additional A entry is used to store an ACL for the following
+ regular entry. The body of this entry contains a seven-digit
+ octal number (whose value is 01000000 plus the number of ACL
+ entries) followed by a zero byte, followed by the textual ACL
+ description.
+
+ Other Extensions
+ One common extension, utilized by GNU tar, star, and other newer tar
+ implementations, permits binary numbers in the standard numeric fields.
+ This is flagged by setting the high bit of the first character. This
+ permits 95-bit values for the length and time fields and 63-bit values
+ for the uid, gid, and device numbers. GNU tar supports this extension
+ for the length, mtime, ctime, and atime fields. Joerg Schilling's star
+ program supports this extension for all numeric fields. Note that this
+ extension is largely obsoleted by the extended attribute record provided
+ by the pax interchange format.
+
+ Another early GNU extension allowed base-64 values rather than octal.
+ This extension was short-lived and such archives are almost never seen.
+ However, there is still code in GNU tar to support them; this code is
+ responsible for a very cryptic warning message that is sometimes seen
+ when GNU tar encounters a damaged archive.

+STANDARDS
+ The tar utility is no longer a part of POSIX or the Single Unix Standard.
+ It last appeared in Version 2 of the Single UNIX Specification
+ (``SUSv2''). It has been supplanted in subsequent standards by pax(1).
+ The ustar format is currently part of the specification for the pax(1)
+ utility. The pax interchange file format is new with IEEE Std
+ 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
+
+HISTORY
+ A tar command appeared in Seventh Edition Unix, which was released in
+ January, 1979. It replaced the tp program from Fourth Edition Unix which
+ in turn replaced the tap program from First Edition Unix. John Gilmore's
+ pdtar public-domain implementation (circa 1987) was highly influential
+ and formed the basis of GNU tar. Joerg Shilling's star archiver is
+ another open-source (GPL) archiver (originally developed circa 1985)
+ which features complete support for pax interchange format.
