+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions provide a complete API for creating streaming
+archive files.
+The general process is to first create the
+.Tn struct archive
+object, set any desired options, initialize the archive, append entries, then
+close the archive and release all resources.
+The following summary describes the functions in approximately
+the order they are ordinarily used:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fn archive_write_new
+Allocates and initializes a
+.Tn struct archive
+object suitable for writing a tar archive.
+.It Fn archive_write_set_bytes_per_block
+Sets the block size used for writing the archive data.
+Every call to the write callback function, except possibly the last one, will
+use this value for the length.
+The third parameter is a boolean that specifies whether or not the final block
+written will be padded to the full block size.
+If it is zero, the last block will not be padded.
+If it is non-zero, padding will be added both before and after compression.
+The default is to use a block size of 10240 bytes and to pad the last block.
+Note that a block size of zero will suppress internal blocking
+and cause writes to be sent directly to the write callback as they occur.
+.It Fn archive_write_get_bytes_per_block
+Retrieve the block size to be used for writing.
+A value of -1 here indicates that the library should use default values.
+A value of zero indicates that internal blocking is suppressed.
+.It Fn archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block
+Sets the block size used for writing the last block.
+If this value is zero, the last block will be padded to the same size
+as the other blocks.
+Otherwise, the final block will be padded to a multiple of this size.
+In particular, setting it to 1 will cause the final block to not be padded.
+For compressed output, any padding generated by this option
+is applied only after the compression.
+The uncompressed data is always unpadded.
+The default is to pad the last block to the full block size (note that
+.Fn archive_write_open_filename
+will set this based on the file type).
+Unlike the other
+.Dq set
+functions, this function can be called after the archive is opened.
+.It Fn archive_write_get_bytes_in_last_block
+Retrieve the currently-set value for last block size.
+A value of -1 here indicates that the library should use default values.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_cpio ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_pax ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_pax_restricted ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_shar ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_shar_binary ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_ustar
+.Xc
+Sets the format that will be used for the archive.
+The library can write
+POSIX octet-oriented cpio format archives,
+POSIX-standard
+.Dq pax interchange
+format archives,
+traditional
+.Dq shar
+archives,
+enhanced
+.Dq binary
+shar archives that store a variety of file attributes and handle binary files,
+and
+POSIX-standard
+.Dq ustar
+archives.
+The pax interchange format is a backwards-compatible tar format that
+adds key/value attributes to each entry and supports arbitrary
+filenames, linknames, uids, sizes, etc.
+.Dq Restricted pax interchange format
+is the library default; this is the same as pax format, but suppresses
+the pax extended header for most normal files.
+In most cases, this will result in ordinary ustar archives.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_write_set_compression_bzip2 ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_compression_compress ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_compression_gzip ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_compression_none
+.Xc
+The resulting archive will be compressed as specified.
+Note that the compressed output is always properly blocked.
+.It Fn archive_write_set_compression_program
+The archive will be fed into the specified compression program.
+The output of that program is blocked and written to the client
+write callbacks.
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_write_set_compressor_options ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_format_options ,
+.Fn archive_write_set_options
+.Xc
+Specifies options that will be passed to the currently-enabled
+compressor and/or format writer.
+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 Compressor gzip
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Cm compression-level
+The value is interpreted as a decimal integer specifying the
+gzip compression level.
+.El
+.It Compressor xz
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Cm compression-level
+The value is interpreted as a decimal integer specifying the
+compression level.
+.El
+.It Format mtree
+.Bl -tag -compact -width indent
+.It Cm cksum , Cm device , Cm flags , Cm gid , Cm gname , Cm indent , Cm link , Cm md5 , Cm mode , Cm nlink , Cm rmd160 , Cm sha1 , Cm sha256 , Cm sha384 , Cm sha512 , Cm size , Cm time , Cm uid , Cm uname
+Enable a particular keyword in the mtree output.
+Prefix with an exclamation mark to disable the corresponding keyword.
+The default is equivalent to
+.Dq device, flags, gid, gname, link, mode, nlink, size, time, type, uid, uname .
+.It Cm all
+Enables all of the above keywords.
+.It Cm use-set
+Enables generation of
+.Cm /set
+lines that specify default values for the following files and/or directories.
+.It Cm indent
+XXX needs explanation XXX
+.El
+.El
+.It Fn archive_write_open
+Freeze the settings, open the archive, and prepare for writing entries.
+This is the most generic form of this function, which accepts
+pointers to three callback functions which will be invoked by
+the compression layer to write the constructed archive.
+.It Fn archive_write_open_fd
+A convenience form of
+.Fn archive_write_open
+that accepts a file descriptor.
+The
+.Fn archive_write_open_fd
+function is safe for use with tape drives or other
+block-oriented devices.
+.It Fn archive_write_open_FILE
+A convenience form of
+.Fn archive_write_open
+that accepts a
+.Ft "FILE *"
+pointer.
+Note that
+.Fn archive_write_open_FILE
+is not safe for writing to tape drives or other devices
+that require correct blocking.
+.It Fn archive_write_open_file
+A deprecated synonym for
+.Fn archive_write_open_filename .
+.It Fn archive_write_open_filename
+A convenience form of
+.Fn archive_write_open
+that accepts a filename.
+A NULL argument indicates that the output should be written to standard output;
+an argument of
+.Dq -
+will open a file with that name.
+If you have not invoked
+.Fn archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block ,
+then
+.Fn archive_write_open_filename
+will adjust the last-block padding depending on the file:
+it will enable padding when writing to standard output or
+to a character or block device node, it will disable padding otherwise.
+You can override this by manually invoking
+.Fn archive_write_set_bytes_in_last_block
+before calling
+.Fn archive_write_open .
+The
+.Fn archive_write_open_filename
+function is safe for use with tape drives or other
+block-oriented devices.
+.It Fn archive_write_open_memory
+A convenience form of
+.Fn archive_write_open
+that accepts a pointer to a block of memory that will receive
+the archive.
+The final
+.Ft "size_t *"
+argument points to a variable that will be updated
+after each write to reflect how much of the buffer
+is currently in use.
+You should be careful to ensure that this variable
+remains allocated until after the archive is
+closed.
+.It Fn archive_write_header
+Build and write a header using the data in the provided
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+structure.
+See
+.Xr archive_entry 3
+for information on creating and populating
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+objects.
+.It Fn archive_write_data
+Write data corresponding to the header just written.
+Returns number of bytes written or -1 on error.
+.It Fn archive_write_finish_entry
+Close out the entry just written.
+In particular, this writes out the final padding required by some formats.
+Ordinarily, clients never need to call this, as it
+is called automatically by
+.Fn archive_write_next_header
+and
+.Fn archive_write_close
+as needed.
+.It Fn archive_write_close
+Complete the archive and invoke the close callback.
+.It Fn archive_write_finish
+Invokes
+.Fn archive_write_close
+if it was not invoked manually, then releases all resources.
+Note that this function was declared to return
+.Ft void
+in libarchive 1.x, which made it impossible to detect errors when
+.Fn archive_write_close
+was invoked implicitly from this function.
+This is corrected beginning with libarchive 2.0.
+.El
+More information about the
+.Va struct archive
+object and the overall design of the library can be found in the
+.Xr libarchive 3
+overview.
+.Sh IMPLEMENTATION
+Compression support is built-in to libarchive, which uses zlib and bzlib
+to handle gzip and bzip2 compression, respectively.
+.Sh CLIENT CALLBACKS
+To use this library, you will need to define and register
+callback functions that will be invoked to write data to the
+resulting archive.
+These functions are registered by calling
+.Fn archive_write_open :
+.Bl -item -offset indent
+.It
+.Ft typedef int
+.Fn archive_open_callback "struct archive *" "void *client_data"
+.El
+.Pp
+The open callback is invoked by
+.Fn archive_write_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 .
+.Bl -item -offset indent
+.It
+.Ft typedef ssize_t
+.Fo archive_write_callback
+.Fa "struct archive *"
+.Fa "void *client_data"
+.Fa "const void *buffer"
+.Fa "size_t length"
+.Fc
+.El
+.Pp
+The write callback is invoked whenever the library
+needs to write raw bytes to the archive.
+For correct blocking, each call to the write callback function
+should translate into a single
+.Xr write 2
+system call.
+This is especially critical when writing archives to tape drives.
+On success, the write callback should return the
+number of bytes actually written.
+On error, the callback should invoke
+.Fn archive_set_error
+to register an error code and message and return -1.
+.Bl -item -offset indent
+.It
+.Ft typedef int
+.Fn archive_close_callback "struct archive *" "void *client_data"
+.El
+.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 sketch illustrates basic usage of the library.
+In this example,
+the callback functions are simply wrappers around the standard
+.Xr open 2 ,
+.Xr write 2 ,
+and
+.Xr close 2
+system calls.

+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Most functions return
+.Cm ARCHIVE_OK
+(zero) on success, or one of several non-zero
+error codes for errors.
+Specific error codes include:
+.Cm ARCHIVE_RETRY
+for operations that might succeed if retried,
+.Cm ARCHIVE_WARN
+for unusual conditions that do not prevent further operations, and
+.Cm ARCHIVE_FATAL
+for serious errors that make remaining operations impossible.
+The
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string
+functions can be used to retrieve an appropriate error code and a
+textual error message.
+.Pp
+.Fn archive_write_new
+returns a pointer to a newly-allocated
+.Tn struct archive
+object.
+.Pp
+.Fn archive_write_data
+returns a count of the number of bytes actually written.
+On error, -1 is returned and the
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string
+functions will return appropriate values.
+Note that if the client-provided write callback function
+returns a non-zero value, that error will be propagated back to the caller
+through whatever API function resulted in that call, which
+may include
+.Fn archive_write_header ,
+.Fn archive_write_data ,
+.Fn archive_write_close ,
+or
+.Fn archive_write_finish .
+The client callback can call
+.Fn archive_set_error
+to provide values that can then be retrieved by
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string .

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm libarchive
+library first appeared in
+.Fx 5.3 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An -nosplit
+The
+.Nm libarchive
+library was written by
+.An Tim Kientzle Aq kientzle@acm.org .
+.Sh BUGS
+There are many peculiar bugs in historic tar implementations that may cause
+certain programs to reject archives written by this library.
+For example, several historic implementations calculated header checksums
+incorrectly and will thus reject valid archives; GNU tar does not fully support
+pax interchange format; some old tar implementations required specific
+field terminations.
+.Pp
+The default pax interchange format eliminates most of the historic
+tar limitations and provides a generic key/value attribute facility
+for vendor-defined extensions.
+One oversight in POSIX is the failure to provide a standard attribute
+for large device numbers.
+This library uses
+.Dq SCHILY.devminor
+and
+.Dq SCHILY.devmajor
+for device numbers that exceed the range supported by the backwards-compatible
+ustar header.
+These keys are compatible with Joerg Schilling's
+.Nm star
+archiver.
+Other implementations may not recognize these keys and will thus be unable
+to correctly restore device nodes with large device numbers from archives
+created by this library.
