dwarfs-0.7.0-RC6

[mhx]

Features

• Support delayed loading of WinFsp DLL for universal binary. This makes the mkdwarfs, dwarfsck and dwarfsextract tools of the universal binary usable without the WinFsp DLL.

Performance

• Optimized the offset cache to improve random read latency as well as sequential read latency. This gave a 100x higher throughput for a case where DwarFS was used to compress raw file system images. Fixes github Feature Request: Target number of blocks/chunks for read performance #142.

Bugfixes

• Fixed building with make instead of ninja. Also fix builing in Debug mode. Fixes github Latest git failing to build due to thrift #146.
• Fixed ninja clean.
• Fixed symlink creation for mount.dwarfs/mount.dwarfs2.

Other

• Added CI pipeline.
• Don't write versioning files to source tree.
