+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions provide a complete API for creating objects on
+disk from
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+descriptions.
+They are most naturally used when extracting objects from an archive
+using the
+.Fn archive_read
+interface.
+The general process is to read
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+objects from an archive, then write those objects to a
+.Tn struct archive
+object created using the
+.Fn archive_write_disk
+family functions.
+This interface is deliberately very similar to the
+.Fn archive_write
+interface used to write objects to a streaming archive.
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fn archive_write_disk_new
+Allocates and initializes a
+.Tn struct archive
+object suitable for writing objects to disk.
+.It Fn archive_write_disk_set_skip_file
+Records the device and inode numbers of a file that should not be
+overwritten.
+This is typically used to ensure that an extraction process does not
+overwrite the archive from which objects are being read.
+This capability is technically unnecessary but can be a significant
+performance optimization in practice.
+.It Fn archive_write_disk_set_options
+The options field consists of a bitwise OR of one or more of the
+following values:
+.Bl -tag -compact -width "indent"
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER
+The user and group IDs should be set on the restored file.
+By default, the user and group IDs are not restored.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_PERM
+Full permissions (including SGID, SUID, and sticky bits) should
+be restored exactly as specified, without obeying the
+current umask.
+Note that SUID and SGID bits can only be restored if the
+user and group ID of the object on disk are correct.
+If
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER
+is not specified, then SUID and SGID bits will only be restored
+if the default user and group IDs of newly-created objects on disk
+happen to match those specified in the archive entry.
+By default, only basic permissions are restored, and umask is obeyed.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_TIME
+The timestamps (mtime, ctime, and atime) should be restored.
+By default, they are ignored.
+Note that restoring of atime is not currently supported.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_NO_OVERWRITE
+Existing files on disk will not be overwritten.
+By default, existing regular files are truncated and overwritten;
+existing directories will have their permissions updated;
+other pre-existing objects are unlinked and recreated from scratch.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_UNLINK
+Existing files on disk will be unlinked before any attempt to
+create them.
+In some cases, this can prove to be a significant performance improvement.
+By default, existing files are truncated and rewritten, but
+the file is not recreated.
+In particular, the default behavior does not break existing hard links.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_ACL
+Attempt to restore ACLs.
+By default, extended ACLs are ignored.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_FFLAGS
+Attempt to restore extended file flags.
+By default, file flags are ignored.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_XATTR
+Attempt to restore POSIX.1e extended attributes.
+By default, they are ignored.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_SYMLINKS
+Refuse to extract any object whose final location would be altered
+by a symlink on disk.
+This is intended to help guard against a variety of mischief
+caused by archives that (deliberately or otherwise) extract
+files outside of the current directory.
+The default is not to perform this check.
+If
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_UNLINK
+is specified together with this option, the library will
+remove any intermediate symlinks it finds and return an
+error only if such symlink could not be removed.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_NODOTDOT
+Refuse to extract a path that contains a
+.Pa ..
+element anywhere within it.
+The default is to not refuse such paths.
+Note that paths ending in
+.Pa ..
+always cause an error, regardless of this flag.
+.It Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SPARSE
+Scan data for blocks of NUL bytes and try to recreate them with holes.
+This results in sparse files, independent of whether the archive format
+supports or uses them.
+.El
+.It Xo
+.Fn archive_write_disk_set_group_lookup ,
+.Fn archive_write_disk_set_user_lookup
+.Xc
+The
+.Tn struct archive_entry
+objects contain both names and ids that can be used to identify users
+and groups.
+These names and ids describe the ownership of the file itself and
+also appear in ACL lists.
+By default, the library uses the ids and ignores the names, but
+this can be overridden by registering user and group lookup functions.
+To register, you must provide a lookup function which
+accepts both a name and id and returns a suitable id.
+You may also provide a
+.Tn void *
+pointer to a private data structure and a cleanup function for
+that data.
+The cleanup function will be invoked when the
+.Tn struct archive
+object is destroyed.
+.It Fn archive_write_disk_set_standard_lookup
+This convenience function installs a standard set of user
+and group lookup functions.
+These functions use
+.Xr getpwnam 3
+and
+.Xr getgrnam 3
+to convert names to ids, defaulting to the ids if the names cannot
+be looked up.
+These functions also implement a simple memory cache to reduce
+the number of calls to
+.Xr getpwnam 3
+and
+.Xr getgrnam 3 .
+.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_data_block
+Write data corresponding to the header just written.
+This is like
+.Fn archive_write_data
+except that it performs a seek on the file being
+written to the specified offset before writing the data.
+This is useful when restoring sparse files from archive
+formats that support sparse files.
+Returns number of bytes written or -1 on error.
+(Note: This is currently not supported for
+.Tn archive_write
+handles, only for
+.Tn archive_write_disk
+handles.)
+.It Fn archive_write_finish_entry
+Close out the entry just written.
+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.
+However, some file attributes are written to disk only
+after the file is closed, so this can be necessary
+if you need to work with the file on disk right away.
+.It Fn archive_write_close
+Set any attributes that could not be set during the initial restore.
+For example, directory timestamps are not restored initially because
+restoring a subsequent file would alter that timestamp.
+Similarly, non-writable directories are initially created with
+write permissions (so that their contents can be restored).
+The
+.Nm
+library maintains a list of all such deferred attributes and
+sets them when this function is invoked.
+.It Fn archive_write_finish
+This is a deprecated synonym for
+.Fn archive_write_free .
+.It Fn archive_write_free
+Invokes
+.Fn archive_write_close
+if it was not invoked manually, then releases all resources.
+.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.
+Many of these functions are also documented under
+.Xr archive_write 3 .
+.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.
+.Pp
+.Fn archive_write_disk_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,
+or
+.Li -1
+on error.

+.Sh ERRORS
+Detailed error codes and textual descriptions are available from the
+.Fn archive_errno
+and
+.Fn archive_error_string
+functions.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm libarchive
+library first appeared in
+.Fx 5.3 .
+The
+.Nm archive_write_disk
+interface was added to
+.Nm libarchive 2.0
+and first appeared in
+.Fx 6.3 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An -nosplit
+The
+.Nm libarchive
+library was written by
+.An Tim Kientzle Aq kientzle@acm.org .
+.Sh BUGS
+Directories are actually extracted in two distinct phases.
+Directories are created during
+.Fn archive_write_header ,
+but final permissions are not set until
+.Fn archive_write_close .
+This separation is necessary to correctly handle borderline
+cases such as a non-writable directory containing
+files, but can cause unexpected results.
+In particular, directory permissions are not fully
+restored until the archive is closed.
+If you use
+.Xr chdir 2
+to change the current directory between calls to
+.Fn archive_read_extract
+or before calling
+.Fn archive_read_close ,
+you may confuse the permission-setting logic with
+the result that directory permissions are restored
+incorrectly.
+.Pp
+The library attempts to create objects with filenames longer than
+.Cm PATH_MAX
+by creating prefixes of the full path and changing the current directory.
+Currently, this logic is limited in scope; the fixup pass does
+not work correctly for such objects and the symlink security check
+option disables the support for very long pathnames.
+.Pp
+Restoring the path
+.Pa aa/../bb
+does create each intermediate directory.
+In particular, the directory
+.Pa aa
+is created as well as the final object
+.Pa bb .
+In theory, this can be exploited to create an entire directory hierarchy
+with a single request.
+Of course, this does not work if the
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_NODOTDOT
+option is specified.
+.Pp
+Implicit directories are always created obeying the current umask.
+Explicit objects are created obeying the current umask unless
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_PERM
+is specified, in which case they current umask is ignored.
+.Pp
+SGID and SUID bits are restored only if the correct user and
+group could be set.
+If
+.Cm ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_OWNER
+is not specified, then no attempt is made to set the ownership.
+In this case, SGID and SUID bits are restored only if the
+user and group of the final object happen to match those specified
+in the entry.
+.Pp
+The
+.Dq standard
+user-id and group-id lookup functions are not the defaults because
+.Xr getgrnam 3
+and
+.Xr getpwnam 3
+are sometimes too large for particular applications.
+The current design allows the application author to use a more
+compact implementation when appropriate.
+.Pp
+There should be a corresponding
+.Nm archive_read_disk
+interface that walks a directory hierarchy and returns archive
+entry objects.
