-compression ratio and very fast decompression.
-
-LZMA is an improved version of famous LZ77 compression algorithm.
-It was improved in way of maximum increasing of compression ratio,
-keeping high decompression speed and low memory requirements for
-decompressing.

-LZMA features
--------------
- - Variable dictionary size (up to 1 GB)
- - Estimated compressing speed: about 2 MB/s on 2 GHz CPU
- - Estimated decompressing speed:
- - 20-30 MB/s on 2 GHz Core 2 or AMD Athlon 64
- - 1-2 MB/s on 200 MHz ARM, MIPS, PowerPC or other simple RISC
- - Small memory requirements for decompressing (16 KB + DictionarySize)
- - Small code size for decompressing: 5-8 KB
-
-LZMA decoder uses only integer operations and can be
-implemented in any modern 32-bit CPU (or on 16-bit CPU with some conditions).
-
-Some critical operations that affect the speed of LZMA decompression:
- 1) 32*16 bit integer multiply
- 2) Misspredicted branches (penalty mostly depends from pipeline length)
- 3) 32-bit shift and arithmetic operations
-
-The speed of LZMA decompressing mostly depends from CPU speed.
-Memory speed has no big meaning. But if your CPU has small data cache,
-overall weight of memory speed will slightly increase.
-
-
-How To Use
-----------
-
-Using LZMA encoder/decoder executable
---------------------------------------
-
-Usage: LZMA <e|d> inputFile outputFile [<switches>...]
-
- e: encode file
-
- d: decode file
-
- b: Benchmark. There are two tests: compressing and decompressing
- with LZMA method. Benchmark shows rating in MIPS (million
- instructions per second). Rating value is calculated from
- measured speed and it is normalized with Intel's Core 2 results.
- Also Benchmark checks possible hardware errors (RAM
- errors in most cases). Benchmark uses these settings:
- (-a1, -d21, -fb32, -mfbt4). You can change only -d parameter.
- Also you can change the number of iterations. Example for 30 iterations:
- LZMA b 30
- Default number of iterations is 10.
-
-<Switches>
-
-
- -a{N}: set compression mode 0 = fast, 1 = normal
- default: 1 (normal)
-
- d{N}: Sets Dictionary size - [0, 30], default: 23 (8MB)
- The maximum value for dictionary size is 1 GB = 2^30 bytes.
- Dictionary size is calculated as DictionarySize = 2^N bytes.
- For decompressing file compressed by LZMA method with dictionary
- size D = 2^N you need about D bytes of memory (RAM).
-
- -fb{N}: set number of fast bytes - [5, 273], default: 128
- Usually big number gives a little bit better compression ratio
- and slower compression process.
-
- -lc{N}: set number of literal context bits - [0, 8], default: 3
- Sometimes lc=4 gives gain for big files.
-
- -lp{N}: set number of literal pos bits - [0, 4], default: 0
- lp switch is intended for periodical data when period is
- equal 2^N. For example, for 32-bit (4 bytes)
- periodical data you can use lp=2. Often it's better to set lc0,
- if you change lp switch.
-
- -pb{N}: set number of pos bits - [0, 4], default: 2
- pb switch is intended for periodical data
- when period is equal 2^N.
-
- -mf{MF_ID}: set Match Finder. Default: bt4.
- Algorithms from hc* group doesn't provide good compression
- ratio, but they often works pretty fast in combination with
- fast mode (-a0).
-
- Memory requirements depend from dictionary size
- (parameter "d" in table below).
-
- MF_ID Memory Description
-
- bt2 d * 9.5 + 4MB Binary Tree with 2 bytes hashing.
- bt3 d * 11.5 + 4MB Binary Tree with 3 bytes hashing.
- bt4 d * 11.5 + 4MB Binary Tree with 4 bytes hashing.
- hc4 d * 7.5 + 4MB Hash Chain with 4 bytes hashing.
-
- -eos: write End Of Stream marker. By default LZMA doesn't write
- eos marker, since LZMA decoder knows uncompressed size
- stored in .lzma file header.
-
- -si: Read data from stdin (it will write End Of Stream marker).
- -so: Write data to stdout
-
-
-Examples:
-
-1) LZMA e file.bin file.lzma -d16 -lc0
-
-compresses file.bin to file.lzma with 64 KB dictionary (2^16=64K)
-and 0 literal context bits. -lc0 allows to reduce memory requirements
-for decompression.
-
-
-2) LZMA e file.bin file.lzma -lc0 -lp2
-
-compresses file.bin to file.lzma with settings suitable
-for 32-bit periodical data (for example, ARM or MIPS code).
-
-3) LZMA d file.lzma file.bin
-
-decompresses file.lzma to file.bin.
-
-
-Compression ratio hints
------------------------
-
-Recommendations
----------------
-
-To increase the compression ratio for LZMA compressing it's desirable
-to have aligned data (if it's possible) and also it's desirable to locate
-data in such order, where code is grouped in one place and data is
-grouped in other place (it's better than such mixing: code, data, code,
-data, ...).
-
-
-Filters
--------
-You can increase the compression ratio for some data types, using
-special filters before compressing. For example, it's possible to
-increase the compression ratio on 5-10% for code for those CPU ISAs:
-x86, IA-64, ARM, ARM-Thumb, PowerPC, SPARC.
-
-You can find C source code of such filters in C/Bra*.* files
-
-You can check the compression ratio gain of these filters with such
-7-Zip commands (example for ARM code):
-No filter:
- 7z a a1.7z a.bin -m0=lzma
-
-With filter for little-endian ARM code:
- 7z a a2.7z a.bin -m0=arm -m1=lzma
-
-It works in such manner:
-Compressing = Filter_encoding + LZMA_encoding
-Decompressing = LZMA_decoding + Filter_decoding
-
-Compressing and decompressing speed of such filters is very high,
-so it will not increase decompressing time too much.
-Moreover, it reduces decompression time for LZMA_decoding,
-since compression ratio with filtering is higher.
-
-These filters convert CALL (calling procedure) instructions
-from relative offsets to absolute addresses, so such data becomes more
-compressible.
-
-For some ISAs (for example, for MIPS) it's impossible to get gain from such filter.
-
-
-LZMA compressed file format
----------------------------
-Offset Size Description
- 0 1 Special LZMA properties (lc,lp, pb in encoded form)
- 1 4 Dictionary size (little endian)
- 5 8 Uncompressed size (little endian). -1 means unknown size
- 13 Compressed data
-
-
-ANSI-C LZMA Decoder
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Please note that interfaces for ANSI-C code were changed in LZMA SDK 4.58.
-If you want to use old interfaces you can download previous version of LZMA SDK
-from sourceforge.net site.
-
-To use ANSI-C LZMA Decoder you need the following files:
-1) LzmaDec.h + LzmaDec.c + Types.h
-LzmaUtil/LzmaUtil.c is example application that uses these files.
-
-
-Memory requirements for LZMA decoding
--------------------------------------
-
-Stack usage of LZMA decoding function for local variables is not
-larger than 200-400 bytes.
-
-LZMA Decoder uses dictionary buffer and internal state structure.
-Internal state structure consumes
- state_size = (4 + (1.5 << (lc + lp))) KB
-by default (lc=3, lp=0), state_size = 16 KB.
-
-
-How To decompress data
-----------------------
-
-LZMA Decoder (ANSI-C version) now supports 2 interfaces:
-1) Single-call Decompressing
-2) Multi-call State Decompressing (zlib-like interface)
-
-You must use external allocator:
-Example:
-void *SzAlloc(void *p, size_t size) { p = p; return malloc(size); }
-void SzFree(void *p, void *address) { p = p; free(address); }
-ISzAlloc alloc = { SzAlloc, SzFree };
-
-You can use p = p; operator to disable compiler warnings.
-
-
-Single-call Decompressing
--------------------------
-When to use: RAM->RAM decompressing
-Compile files: LzmaDec.h + LzmaDec.c + Types.h
-Compile defines: no defines
-Memory Requirements:
- - Input buffer: compressed size
- - Output buffer: uncompressed size
- - LZMA Internal Structures: state_size (16 KB for default settings)
-
-Interface:
- int LzmaDecode(Byte *dest, SizeT *destLen, const Byte *src, SizeT *srcLen,
- const Byte *propData, unsigned propSize, ELzmaFinishMode finishMode,
- ELzmaStatus *status, ISzAlloc *alloc);
- In:
- dest - output data
- destLen - output data size
- src - input data
- srcLen - input data size
- propData - LZMA properties (5 bytes)
- propSize - size of propData buffer (5 bytes)
- finishMode - It has meaning only if the decoding reaches output limit (*destLen).
- LZMA_FINISH_ANY - Decode just destLen bytes.
- LZMA_FINISH_END - Stream must be finished after (*destLen).
- You can use LZMA_FINISH_END, when you know that
- current output buffer covers last bytes of stream.
- alloc - Memory allocator.
-
- Out:
- destLen - processed output size
- srcLen - processed input size
-
- Output:
- SZ_OK
- status:
- LZMA_STATUS_FINISHED_WITH_MARK
- LZMA_STATUS_NOT_FINISHED
- LZMA_STATUS_MAYBE_FINISHED_WITHOUT_MARK
- SZ_ERROR_DATA - Data error
- SZ_ERROR_MEM - Memory allocation error
- SZ_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED - Unsupported properties
- SZ_ERROR_INPUT_EOF - It needs more bytes in input buffer (src).
-
- If LZMA decoder sees end_marker before reaching output limit, it returns OK result,
- and output value of destLen will be less than output buffer size limit.
-
- You can use multiple checks to test data integrity after full decompression:
- 1) Check Result and "status" variable.
- 2) Check that output(destLen) = uncompressedSize, if you know real uncompressedSize.
- 3) Check that output(srcLen) = compressedSize, if you know real compressedSize.
- You must use correct finish mode in that case. */
-
-
-Multi-call State Decompressing (zlib-like interface)
-----------------------------------------------------
-
-When to use: file->file decompressing
-Compile files: LzmaDec.h + LzmaDec.c + Types.h
-
-Memory Requirements:
- - Buffer for input stream: any size (for example, 16 KB)
- - Buffer for output stream: any size (for example, 16 KB)
- - LZMA Internal Structures: state_size (16 KB for default settings)
- - LZMA dictionary (dictionary size is encoded in LZMA properties header)
-
-1) read LZMA properties (5 bytes) and uncompressed size (8 bytes, little-endian) to header:
- unsigned char header[LZMA_PROPS_SIZE + 8];
- ReadFile(inFile, header, sizeof(header)
-
-2) Allocate CLzmaDec structures (state + dictionary) using LZMA properties
-
- CLzmaDec state;
- LzmaDec_Constr(&state);
- res = LzmaDec_Allocate(&state, header, LZMA_PROPS_SIZE, &g_Alloc);
- if (res != SZ_OK)
- return res;
-
-3) Init LzmaDec structure before any new LZMA stream. And call LzmaDec_DecodeToBuf in loop
-
- LzmaDec_Init(&state);
- for (;;)
- {
- ...
- int res = LzmaDec_DecodeToBuf(CLzmaDec *p, Byte *dest, SizeT *destLen,
- const Byte *src, SizeT *srcLen, ELzmaFinishMode finishMode);
- ...
- }
-
-
-4) Free all allocated structures
- LzmaDec_Free(&state, &g_Alloc);
-
-For full code example, look at C/LzmaUtil/LzmaUtil.c code.
-
-
-How To compress data
---------------------
-
-Compile files: LzmaEnc.h + LzmaEnc.c + Types.h +
-LzFind.c + LzFind.h + LzFindMt.c + LzFindMt.h + LzHash.h
-
-Memory Requirements:
- - (dictSize * 11.5 + 6 MB) + state_size
-
-Lzma Encoder can use two memory allocators:
-1) alloc - for small arrays.
-2) allocBig - for big arrays.
-
-For example, you can use Large RAM Pages (2 MB) in allocBig allocator for
-better compression speed. Note that Windows has bad implementation for
-Large RAM Pages.
-It's OK to use same allocator for alloc and allocBig.
-
-
-Single-call Compression with callbacks
---------------------------------------
-
-Check C/LzmaUtil/LzmaUtil.c as example,
-
-When to use: file->file decompressing
-
-1) you must implement callback structures for interfaces:
-ISeqInStream
-ISeqOutStream
-ICompressProgress
-ISzAlloc
-
-static void *SzAlloc(void *p, size_t size) { p = p; return MyAlloc(size); }
-static void SzFree(void *p, void *address) { p = p; MyFree(address); }
-static ISzAlloc g_Alloc = { SzAlloc, SzFree };
-
- CFileSeqInStream inStream;
- CFileSeqOutStream outStream;
-
- inStream.funcTable.Read = MyRead;
- inStream.file = inFile;
- outStream.funcTable.Write = MyWrite;
- outStream.file = outFile;
-
-
-2) Create CLzmaEncHandle object;
-
- CLzmaEncHandle enc;
-
- enc = LzmaEnc_Create(&g_Alloc);
- if (enc == 0)
- return SZ_ERROR_MEM;
-
-
-3) initialize CLzmaEncProps properties;
-
- LzmaEncProps_Init(&props);
-
- Then you can change some properties in that structure.
-
-4) Send LZMA properties to LZMA Encoder
-
- res = LzmaEnc_SetProps(enc, &props);
-
-5) Write encoded properties to header
-
- Byte header[LZMA_PROPS_SIZE + 8];
- size_t headerSize = LZMA_PROPS_SIZE;
- UInt64 fileSize;
- int i;
-
- res = LzmaEnc_WriteProperties(enc, header, &headerSize);
- fileSize = MyGetFileLength(inFile);
- for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
- header[headerSize++] = (Byte)(fileSize >> (8 * i));
- MyWriteFileAndCheck(outFile, header, headerSize)
-
-6) Call encoding function:
- res = LzmaEnc_Encode(enc, &outStream.funcTable, &inStream.funcTable,
- NULL, &g_Alloc, &g_Alloc);
-
-7) Destroy LZMA Encoder Object
- LzmaEnc_Destroy(enc, &g_Alloc, &g_Alloc);
-
-
-If callback function return some error code, LzmaEnc_Encode also returns that code
-or it can return the code like SZ_ERROR_READ, SZ_ERROR_WRITE or SZ_ERROR_PROGRESS.
-
-
-Single-call RAM->RAM Compression
---------------------------------
-
-Single-call RAM->RAM Compression is similar to Compression with callbacks,
-but you provide pointers to buffers instead of pointers to stream callbacks:
-
-HRes LzmaEncode(Byte *dest, SizeT *destLen, const Byte *src, SizeT srcLen,
- CLzmaEncProps *props, Byte *propsEncoded, SizeT *propsSize, int writeEndMark,
- ICompressProgress *progress, ISzAlloc *alloc, ISzAlloc *allocBig);
-
-Return code:
- SZ_OK - OK
- SZ_ERROR_MEM - Memory allocation error
- SZ_ERROR_PARAM - Incorrect paramater
- SZ_ERROR_OUTPUT_EOF - output buffer overflow
- SZ_ERROR_THREAD - errors in multithreading functions (only for Mt version)
-
-
-
-Defines
--------
-
-_LZMA_SIZE_OPT - Enable some optimizations in LZMA Decoder to get smaller executable code.
-
-_LZMA_PROB32 - It can increase the speed on some 32-bit CPUs, but memory usage for
- some structures will be doubled in that case.
-
-_LZMA_UINT32_IS_ULONG - Define it if int is 16-bit on your compiler and long is 32-bit.
-
-_LZMA_NO_SYSTEM_SIZE_T - Define it if you don't want to use size_t type.
-
-
-_7ZIP_PPMD_SUPPPORT - Define it if you don't want to support PPMD method in AMSI-C .7z decoder.
-
-
-C++ LZMA Encoder/Decoder
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-C++ LZMA code use COM-like interfaces. So if you want to use it,
-you can study basics of COM/OLE.
-C++ LZMA code is just wrapper over ANSI-C code.
-
-
-C++ Notes
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-If you use some C++ code folders in 7-Zip (for example, C++ code for .7z handling),
-you must check that you correctly work with "new" operator.
-7-Zip can be compiled with MSVC 6.0 that doesn't throw "exception" from "new" operator.
-So 7-Zip uses "CPP\Common\NewHandler.cpp" that redefines "new" operator:
-operator new(size_t size)
-{
- void *p = ::malloc(size);
- if (p == 0)
- throw CNewException();
- return p;
-}
-If you use MSCV that throws exception for "new" operator, you can compile without
-"NewHandler.cpp". So standard exception will be used. Actually some code of
-7-Zip catches any exception in internal code and converts it to HRESULT code.
-So you don't need to catch CNewException, if you call COM interfaces of 7-Zip.
