.Sh DESCRIPTION
Programs that want to create archives have to deal with hardlinks.
Hardlinks are handled in different ways by the archive formats.
The basic strategies are:
.Bl -enum
.It
Ignore hardlinks and store the body for each reference (old cpio, zip).
.It
Store the body the first time an inode is seen (ustar, pax).
.It
Store the body the last time an inode is seen (new cpio).
.El
.Pp
The
.Nm
functions help by providing a unified interface and handling the complexity
behind the scene.
.Pp
The
.Nm
functions assume that
.Vt archive_entry
instances have valid nlinks, inode and device values.
The inode and device value is used to match entries.
The nlinks value is used to determined if all references have been found and
if the internal references can be recycled.
.Pp
The
.Fn archive_entry_linkresolver_new
function allocates a new link resolver.
The instance can be freed using
.Fn archive_entry_linkresolver_free .
All deferred entries are flushed and the internal storage is freed.
.Pp
The
.Fn archive_entry_linkresolver_set_strategy
function selects the optimal hardlink strategy for the given format.
The format code can be obtained from
.Xr archive_format 3 .
The function can be called more than once, but it is recommended to
flush all deferred entries first.
.Pp
The
.Fn archive_entry_linkify
function is the core of
.Nm .
The
.Fn entry
argument points to the
.Vt archive_entry
that should be written.
Depending on the strategy one of the following actions is taken:
.Bl -enum
.It
For the simple archive formats
.Va *entry
is left unmodified and
.Va *sparse
is set to
.Dv NULL .
.It
For tar like archive formats,
.Va *sparse
is set to
.Dv NULL .
If
.Va *entry
is
.Dv NULL ,
no action is taken.
If the hardlink count of
.Va *entry
is larger than 1 and the file type is a regular file or symbolic link,
the internal list is searched for a matching inode.
If such an inode is found, the link count is decremented and the file size
of
.Va *entry
is set to 0 to notify that no body should be written.
If no such inode is found, a copy of the entry is added to the internal cache
with a link count reduced by one.
.It
For new cpio like archive formats a value for
.Va *entry
of
.Dv NULL
is used to flush deferred entries.
In that case
.Va *entry
is set to an arbitrary deferred entry and the entry itself is removed from the
internal list.
If the internal list is empty,
.Va *entry
is set to
.Dv NULL .
In either case,
.Va *sparse
is set to
.Dv NULL
and the function returns.
If the hardlink count of
.Va *entry
is one or the file type is a directory or device,
.Va *sparse
is set to
.Dv NULL
and no further action is taken.
Otherwise, the internal list is searched for a matching inode.
If such an inode is not found, the entry is added to the internal list,
both
.Va *entry
and
.Va *sparse
are set to
.Dv NULL
and the function returns.
If such an inode is found, the link count is decremented.
If it remains larger than one, the existing entry on the internal list
is swapped with
.Va *entry
after retaining the link count.
The existing entry is returned in
.Va *entry .
If the link count reached one, the new entry is also removed from the
internal list and returned in
.Va *sparse .
Otherwise
.Va *sparse
is set to
.Dv NULL .
.El
.Pp
The general usage is therefore:
.Bl -enum
.It
For each new archive entry, call
.Fn archive_entry_linkify .
.It
Keep in mind that the entries returned may have a size of 0 now.
.It
If
.Va *entry
is not
.Dv NULL ,
archive it.
.It
If
.Va *sparse
is not
.Dv NULL ,
archive it.
.It
After all entries have been written to disk, call
.Fn archive_entry_linkify
with
.Va *entry
set to
.Dv NULL
and archive the returned entry as long as it is not
.Dv NULL .
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn archive_entry_linkresolver_new
returns
.Dv NULL
on
.Xr malloc 3
failures.
