libsqfs: bring sqfs_file_t in line with stream API

2023-09-08T16:49:54+00:00

Rename the open function to sqfs_file_open, use an argument for the return pointer and pass back and error number on failure. Also add an inermediate function to open an sqfs_file_t using a handle, similar to the stream API. The get_file_size function is moved to the native wrappers and some of the implementation is cleaned up a little. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

Collect and print statistics about the kind of files we are packing

2023-04-20T16:44:15+00:00

Using depth-first search, we collect some crude statistics about directory tree types (e.g. regular files, directories, device special files and so on) and print them out after serializing the tree. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

libfstree: Remove special modes for hard links

2023-04-20T12:08:34+00:00

Instead of adding special sentinel modes, simply treat hard links as special case of symlinks, setting a flag to indicate that it is a hard link and another flag to indicate that it has been resolved. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

libfstree: get rid of dir_info_t

2023-04-19T09:17:51+00:00

The single boolean created_implicitly can be replaced with a general purpose flag field. The "children" pointer can then be hoisted directly into the data union of tree_node_t. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer

libsquashfs: remove the default block writer alignment feature

2023-04-01T10:25:02+00:00

The idea of the block align feature was to allow micro-managing that some files are forcefully aligned to 1k/4k ("device block") boundaries, hoping to improve access time at the cost of data density. The feature was not exposed in the tools for a long time and eventuall added to the sort file. Measurement and experimentation showed, that it in fact worsened the read performance on a test system with an old micro SD card as the bottle neck. The feature is removed, and if needed, can be brought back simply by wrapping/sub-classing the default block writer, if need be.. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer
