It causes an attempt to read an extra block from ring buffer to overwrite buffer, which causes libisofs to hang. The problem is that Volume Descriptor Set terminator should not be read from buffer, but generated instead. |

The rights and merits of the Libburn-copyright holders Derek Foreman and Ben Jansens will be duely respected. This libburnia-project.org toplevel README (C) 2006-2007 Thomas Schmitt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Build and Installation Our build system is based on autotools. For preparing the build of a SVN snapshot you will need autotools of at least version 1.7. Check out from SVN by svn co http://svn.libburnia-project.org/libburn/trunk libburn go into directory libburn and apply autotools by ./bootstrap Alternatively you may unpack a release tarball for which you do not need autotools installed. To build a libburnia-project.org subproject it should be sufficient to go into its toplevel directory (here: "libburn") and execute ./configure --prefix=/usr make To make the libraries accessible for running resp. developing applications make install The other half of the project, libisofs, is hosted in the libburnia SVN, too: svn co http://svn.libburnia-project.org/libisofs/trunk libisofs See README file there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Overview of libburnia-project.org libburnia-project.org is an open-source software project for reading, mastering and writing optical discs. For now this means only CD media and all single layer DVD media except DVD+R. The project comprises of several more or less interdependent parts which together strive to be a usable foundation for application development. These are libraries, language bindings, and middleware binaries which emulate classical (and valuable) Linux tools. Our scope is currently Linux 2.4 and 2.6 only. For ports to other systems we would need : login on a development machine resp. a live OS on CD or DVD, advise from a system person about the equivalent of Linux sg or FreeBSD CAM, volunteers for testing of realistic use cases. We have a workable code base for burning CD and most single layer DVD. The burn API is quite comprehensively documented and can be used to build a presentable application. We have a functional binary which emulates parts of cdrecord in order to prove that usability, and in order to allow you to explore libburnia's scope by help of existing cdrecord frontends. The project components (list subject to growth, hopefully): - libburn is the library by which preformatted data get onto optical media. It uses either /dev/sgN (e.g. on kernel 2.4 with ide-scsi) or /dev/hdX (e.g. on kernel 2.6). libburn is the foundation of our cdrecord emulation. Its code is independent of cdrecord. Its DVD capabilities are learned from studying the code of dvd+rw-tools and MMC-5 specs. No code but only the pure SCSI knowledge has been taken from dvd+rw-tools, though. - libisofs is the library to pack up hard disk files and directories into a ISO 9660 disk image. This may then be brought to media via libburn. libisofs is to be the foundation of our upcoming mkisofs emulation. - cdrskin is a limited cdrecord compatibility wrapper for libburn. Cdrecord is a powerful GPL'ed burn program included in Joerg Schilling's cdrtools. cdrskin strives to be a second source for the services traditionally provided by cdrecord. Additionally it provides libburn's DVD capabilities, where only -sao is compatible with cdrecord. cdrskin does not contain any bytes copied from cdrecord's sources. Many bytes have been copied from the message output of cdrecord runs, though. See cdrskin/README and man cdrskin/cdrskin.1 for more. - test is a collection of application gestures and examples given by the authors of the library features. The main API example for libburn is test/libburner.c . Explore these examples if you look for inspiration. We plan to be a responsive upstream. Bear with us. We are still practicing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Project history as far as known to me: - Founded in 2002 as it seems. See mailing list archives http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libburn/ The site of this founder team is reachable and offers download of a (somewhat outdated) tarball and from CVS : http://icculus.org/burn/ Copyright holders and most probably founders: Derek Foreman and Ben Jansens. - I came to using libburn in 2005. Founded the cdrskin project and submitted necessary patches which were accepted or implemented better. Except one remaining patch which prevented cdrskin from using vanilla libburn from CVS. The cdrskin project site is reachable and offers download of the heavily patched (elsewise outdated) tarball under the name cdrskin-0.1.2 : http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin_eng.html It has meanwhile moved to use vanilla libburn.pykix.org , though. Version 0.1.4 constitutes the first release of this kind. - In July 2006 our team mate Mario Danic announced a revival of libburn which by about nearly everybody else was perceived as unfriendly fork. Derek Foreman four days later posted a message which expressed his discontent. The situation first caused me to publically regret it and then - after i got the opportunity to move in with cdrskin - gave me true reason to personally apologize to Derek Foreman, Ben Jansens and the contibutors at icculus.org/burn. Posted to both projects: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libburn/2006-August/000446.html http://mailman-mail1.webfaction.com/pipermail/libburn-hackers/2006-August/000024.html - Mid August 2006 project cdrskin established a branch office in libburn.pykix.org so that all maintainers of our tools have one single place to get the current (at least slightely) usable coordinated versions of everything. Project cdrskin will live forth independendly for a while but it is committed to stay in sync with libburn.pykix.org (or some successor, if ever). cdrskin is also committed to support icculus.org/burn if the pending fork is made reality by content changes in that project. It will cease to maintain a patched version of icculus.org/burn though. Precondition for a new release of cdrskin on base of icculus.org/burn would be the pending "whitelist patch" therefore. I would rather prefer if both projects find consense and merge, or at least cooperate. I have not given up hope totally, yet. I, personally, will honor any approach. - 2nd September 2006 the decision is made to strive for a consolidation of copyright and a commitment to GPL in a reasonable and open minded way. This is to avoid long term problems with code of unknown origin and with finding consense among the not so clearly defined group of copyright claimers and -holders. libisofs is already claimed sole copyright Mario Danic. cdrskin and libburner are already claimed sole copyright Thomas Schmitt. Rewrites of other components will follow and concluded by claiming full copyright within the group of libburn.pykix.org-copyright holders. - 16th September 2006 feature freeze for release of libburn-0.2.2 . - 20th September 2006 release of libburn-0.2.2 . - 26th October 2006 feature freeze for cdrskin-0.2.4 based on libburn-0.2.3 . This version of cdrskin is much more cdrecord compatible in repect to drive addressing and audio features. - 30th October 2006 release of cdrskin-0.2.4 . - 13th November 2006 splitting releases of libburn+cdrskin from libisofs. - 24th November 2006 release of libburn-0.2.6 and cdrskin-0.2.6 . cdrskin has become suitable for unaware frontends as long as they perform only the core of cdrecord use cases (including open-ended input streams, audio, and multi-session). - 28th November 2006 the umbrella project which encloses both, libisofs and libburn, is now called libburnia. For the origin of this name, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liburnians . - 16th January 2007 release of libburn-0.3.0 and cdrskin-0.3.0 . Now the scope is widened to a first class of DVD media: overwriteable single layer types DVD-RAM, DVD+RW, DVD-RW. This is not a cdrecord emulation but rather inspired by dvd+rw-tools' "poor man" writing facility for this class of media. Taking a bow towards Andy Polyakov. - 11th February 2007 version 0.3.2 covers sequential DVD-RW and DVD-R with multi-session and with DAO. - 12th March 2007 version 0.3.4 supports DVD+R and thus covers all single layer DVD media. Code for double layer DVD+/-R is implemented but awaits a tester yet. - 23th April 2007 version 0.3.6 follows the unanimous opinion of Linux kernel people that one should not use /dev/sg on kernel 2.6. - 31st July 2007 version 0.3.8 marks the first anniversary of libburn revival. We look back on improved stability, a substantially extended list of media and write modes, and better protection against typical user mishaps. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation.

To be fully in effect after the remaining other copyrighted code has been replaced by ours and by copyright-free contributions of our friends: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We, the copyright holders, agree on the interpretation that dynamical linking of our libraries constitutes "use of" and not "derivation from" our work in the sense of GPL, provided those libraries are compiled from our unaltered code. Thus you may link our libraries dynamically with applications which are not under GPL. You may distribute our libraries and application tools in binary form, if you fulfill the usual condition of GPL to offer a copy of the source code -altered or unaltered- under GPL. We ask you politely to use our work in open source spirit and with the due reference to the entire open source community. If there should really arise the case where above clarification does not suffice to fulfill a clear and neat request in open source spirit that would otherwise be declined for mere formal reasons, only in that case we will duely consider to issue a special license covering only that special case. It is the open source idea of responsible freedom which will be decisive and you will have to prove that you exhausted all own means to qualify for GPL. For now we are firmly committed to maintain one single license: GPL. signed: Mario Danic, Thomas Schmitt
