+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions provide a complete API for reading streaming archives.
+The general process is to first create the
+.Tn 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:
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Fn archive_read_new
+Allocates and initializes a
+.Tn struct archive
+object suitable for reading from an archive.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_bzip2 ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_compress ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_gzip ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_lzma ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_none ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_compression_xz
+.Xc
+Enables auto-detection code and decompression support for the
+specified compression.
+Returns
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+if the compression is fully supported, or
+.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN
+if the compression is supported only through an external program.
+Note that decompression using an external program is usually slower than
+decompression through built-in libraries.
+Note that
+.Dq none
+is always enabled by default.
+.It Fn archive_read_support_compression_all
+Enables all available decompression filters.
+.It Fn 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 conjunction with any other
+decompression option.
+.It Fn archive_read_support_compression_program_signature
+This feeds data through the specified external program
+but only if the initial bytes of the data match the specified
+signature value.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_all ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_ar ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_cpio ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_empty ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_iso9660 ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_mtree ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_tar ,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_zip
+.Xc
+Enables support---including auto-detection code---for the
+specified archive format.
+For example,
+.Fn 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,
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_all
+enables support for all available formats.
+Only empty archives are supported by default.
+.It Fn archive_read_support_format_raw
+The
+.Dq raw
+format handler allows libarchive to be used to read arbitrary data.
+It treats any data stream as an archive with a single entry.
+The pathname of this entry is
+.Dq data ;
+all other entry fields are unset.
+This is not enabled by
+.Fn archive_read_support_format_all
+in order to avoid erroneous handling of damaged archives.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_read_set_filter_options ,
+.Fn archive_read_set_format_options ,
+.Fn archive_read_set_options
+.Xc
+Specifies options that will be passed to currently-registered
+filters (including decompression filters) and/or format readers.
+The argument is a comma-separated list of individual options.
+Individual options have one of the following forms:
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Ar option=value
+The option/value pair will be provided to every module.
+Modules that do not accept an option with this name will ignore it.
+.It Ar option
+The option will be provided to every module with a value of
+.Dq 1 .
+.It Ar !option
+The option will be provided to every module with a NULL value.
+.It Ar module:option=value , Ar module:option , Ar module:!option
+As above, but the corresponding option and value will be provided
+only to modules whose name matches
+.Ar module .
+.El
+The return value will be
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+if any module accepts the option, or
+.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN
+if no module accepted the option, or
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL
+if there was a fatal error while attempting to process the option.
+.Pp
+The currently supported options are:
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Format iso9660
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Cm joliet
+Support Joliet extensions.
+Defaults to enabled, use
+.Cm !joliet
+to disable.
+.El
+.El
+.It Fn archive_read_open
+The same as
+.Fn archive_read_open2 ,
+except that the skip callback is assumed to be
+.Dv NULL .
+.It Fn 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
+.Fn archive_read_open_filename ,
+.Fn archive_read_open_FILE ,
+.Fn archive_read_open_fd ,
+or
+.Fn archive_read_open_memory
+instead.
+The library invokes the client-provided functions to obtain
+raw bytes from the archive.
+.It Fn archive_read_open_FILE
+Like
+.Fn archive_read_open ,
+except that it accepts a
+.Ft "FILE *"
+pointer.
+This function should not be used with tape drives or other devices
+that require strict I/O blocking.
+.It Fn archive_read_open_fd
+Like
+.Fn archive_read_open ,
+except that it accepts a file descriptor 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.
+.It Fn archive_read_open_file
+This is a deprecated synonym for
+.Fn archive_read_open_filename .
+.It Fn archive_read_open_filename
+Like
+.Fn archive_read_open ,
+except that it accepts a simple filename and a block size.
+A NULL filename represents standard input.
+This function is safe for use with tape drives or other blocked devices.
+.It Fn archive_read_open_memory
+Like
+.Fn archive_read_open ,
+except that it accepts a pointer and size of a block of
+memory containing the archive data.
+.It Fn archive_read_next_header
+Read the header for the next entry and return a pointer to
+a
+.Tn struct archive_entry .
+This is a convenience wrapper around
+.Fn archive_read_next_header2
+that reuses an internal
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+object for each request.
+.It Fn archive_read_next_header2
+Read the header for the next entry and populate the provided
+.Tn struct archive_entry .
+.It Fn archive_read_data
+Read data associated with the header just read.
+Internally, this is a convenience function that calls
+.Fn archive_read_data_block
+and fills any gaps with nulls so that callers see a single
+continuous stream of data.
+.It Fn archive_read_data_block
+Return the next available block of data for this entry.
+Unlike
+.Fn archive_read_data ,
+the
+.Fn archive_read_data_block
+function avoids copying data and allows you to correctly handle
+sparse files, as supported by some archive formats.
+The library guarantees 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.
+.It Fn archive_read_data_skip
+A convenience function that repeatedly calls
+.Fn archive_read_data_block
+to skip all of the data for this archive entry.
+.\" #if ARCHIVE_API_VERSION < 3
+.It Fn archive_read_data_into_buffer
+This function is deprecated and will be removed.
+Use
+.Fn archive_read_data
+instead.
+.\" #endif
+.It Fn archive_read_data_into_fd
+A convenience function that repeatedly calls
+.Fn archive_read_data_block
+to copy the entire entry to the provided file descriptor.
+.It Fn archive_read_extract , Fn archive_read_extract_set_skip_file
+A convenience function that wraps the corresponding
+.Xr archive_write_disk 3
+interfaces.
+The first call to
+.Fn archive_read_extract
+creates a restore object using
+.Xr archive_write_disk_new 3
+and
+.Xr archive_write_disk_set_standard_lookup 3 ,
+then transparently invokes
+.Xr archive_write_disk_set_options 3 ,
+.Xr archive_write_header 3 ,
+.Xr archive_write_data 3 ,
+and
+.Xr archive_write_finish_entry 3
+to create the entry on disk and copy data into it.
+The
+.Va flags
+argument is passed unmodified to
+.Xr archive_write_disk_set_options 3 .
+.It Fn archive_read_extract2
+This is another version of
+.Fn archive_read_extract
+that allows you to provide your own restore object.
+In particular, this allows you to override the standard lookup functions
+using
+.Xr archive_write_disk_set_group_lookup 3 ,
+and
+.Xr archive_write_disk_set_user_lookup 3 .
+Note that
+.Fn archive_read_extract2
+does not accept a
+.Va flags
+argument; you should use
+.Fn archive_write_disk_set_options
+to set the restore options yourself.
+.It Fn 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 function 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.
+.It Fn archive_read_close
+Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
+.It Fn archive_read_free
+Invokes
+.Fn archive_read_close
+if it was not invoked manually, then release all resources.
+Note: In libarchive 1.x, this function was declared to return
+.Ft void ,
+which made it impossible to detect certain errors when
+.Fn archive_read_close
+was invoked implicitly from this function.
+The declaration is corrected beginning with libarchive 2.0.
+.El
+.Pp
+Note that the library determines most of the relevant information about
+the archive by inspection.
+In particular, it automatically detects
+.Xr gzip 1
+or
+.Xr bzip2 1
+compression and transparently performs the appropriate decompression.
+It also automatically detects the archive format.
+.Pp
+A complete description of the
+.Tn struct archive
+and
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+objects can be found in the overview manual page for
+.Xr libarchive 3 .
+.Sh CLIENT CALLBACKS
+The callback functions must match the following prototypes:
+.Bl -item -offset indent
+.It
+.Ft typedef ssize_t
+.Fo archive_read_callback
+.Fa "struct archive *"
+.Fa "void *client_data"
+.Fa "const void **buffer"
+.Fc

+.Fa "size_t request"
+.Fc

+.It
+.Ft typedef int
+.Fn archive_open_callback "struct archive *" "void *client_data"
+.It
+.Ft typedef int
+.Fn archive_close_callback "struct archive *" "void *client_data"
+.El
+.Pp
+The open callback is invoked by
+.Fn archive_open .
+It should return
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+if the underlying file or data source is successfully
+opened.
+If the open fails, it should call
+.Fn archive_set_error
+to register an error code and message and return
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL .
+.Pp
+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
+.Li 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
+.Fn archive_set_error
+to register an error code and message and
+return -1.
+.Pp
+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
+.Dv 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.
+.Pp
+The close callback is invoked by archive_close when
+the archive processing is complete.
+The callback should return
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+on success.
+On failure, the callback should invoke
+.Fn archive_set_error
+to register an error code and message and
+return
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL.
+.Sh EXAMPLE
+The following illustrates basic usage of the library.
+In this example,
+the callback functions are simply wrappers around the standard
+.Xr open 2 ,
+.Xr read 2 ,
+and
+.Xr close 2
+system calls.
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+void
+list_archive(const char *name)
+{

+ 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) {

+ archive_read_data_skip(a);
+ }
+ archive_read_free(a);

+}
+

+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);
+}
+.Ed
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Most functions return zero on success, non-zero on error.
+The possible return codes include:
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+(the operation succeeded),
+.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN
+(the operation succeeded but a non-critical error was encountered),
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EOF
+(end-of-archive was encountered),
+.Cm ARCHIVE_RETRY
+(the operation failed but can be retried),
+and
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL
+(there was a fatal error; the archive should be closed immediately).
+Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string
+functions.
+.Pp
+.Fn archive_read_new
+returns a pointer to a freshly allocated
+.Tn struct archive
+object.
+It returns
+.Dv NULL
+on error.
+.Pp
+.Fn archive_read_data
+returns a count of bytes actually read or zero at the end of the entry.
+On error, a value of
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL ,
+.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN ,
+or
+.Cm ARCHIVE_RETRY
+is returned and an error code and textual description can be retrieved from the
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string
+functions.
+.Pp
+The library expects the client callbacks to behave similarly.
+If there is an error, you can use
+.Fn 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 eventually cause
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL
+to be returned.)
