What's that last one?
Same here.
pcompress is an enhanced version of compress allowing for piece-meal
compression/decompression rather than having to shove everything in
all at once.
Eventually pcompress should replace the compress interface once
everything is converted across.
Herbert, I was looking at adding async support for ALG_TYPE_COMPRESS
since the CCP device will support compression/decompression but only
as an everything at once invocation. Given what you're saying about
pcompress replacing compress, would this be something you'd even
consider though?
Thanks,
Tom
