zisofs is a compression format for files on ISO9660 file system. It has limited support across operating systems, mainly Linux kernel. Typically a directory tree is first preprocessed by mkzftree (from the zisofs-tools package before being turned into an ISO9660 image by mkisofs, genisoimage or similar tool. The data is zlib compressed.
The specification here describes the structure of a file that has been preprocessed by mkzftree, not of a full ISO9660 ziso. Data is not decompressed, as blocks with length 0 have a special meaning. Decompression and deconstruction of this data should be done outside of Kaitai Struct.
This page hosts a formal specification of zisofs using Kaitai Struct. This specification can be automatically translated into a variety of programming languages to get a parsing library.
