Add a replacement for sqfs_writer_t in libsquashfs

1

The libcommon.a helper library currently contains an sqfs_writer_t implementation that uses libsquashfs and libfstree together to provide a simple, high level interface for creating squashfs images. It would benefit users...

Performance improvements

A lot of code was written in a "keep it simple, make it work, worry about performance/efficiency later (but keep it in mind and design the data structures flexible &...

Setting some short term goal posts here: Several planned features require something like a map of a SquashFS image, i.e. either using a linear scan or using a recursive directory...

Binary patching tools

1

A very often demanded feature: - Given two SquashFS images, produce a small binary patch file. - Transmit the patch file somewhere (e.g. an embedded device with a SquashFS rootfs)....

A number of companies, particularly plastic home router vendors, thought it was a *great* idea to modify SquashFS just enough to make it incompatible, probably to satisfy their NIH syndrome....

Currently, only SELinux label files are supported. Maybe something similar can be constructed to micro manage arbitrary xattr key/value pairs.

More extensive testing

* more unit tests, especially for libsqfs * many corner cases in the Xattr code have never been tested

Bringing some of the improvements back upstream

Hi! I took over maintaining upstream mtd-utils in 2016 after doing a lot of cleanup and work around the build system. The latest upstream release is 2.1.1 and a good...

- Replace X11 canvas implementations with MIT-SHM based canvas - If MIT-SHM is available, use mem_canvas with SHM-XImage or SHM-Pixmap - If XRender is available, user existing XRender pixmaps with...
