7 1.1 25 Nov 2004 Change deflateInit2() to deflateInit()
8 Use fixed-size, stack-allocated raw buffers

14/* Approach to just fitting a requested compressed size:
15
16 fitblk performs three compression passes on a portion of the input
17 data in order to determine how much of that input will compress to
18 nearly the requested output block size. The first pass generates
19 enough deflate blocks to produce output to fill the requested
20 output size plus a specfied excess amount (see the EXCESS define
21 below). The last deflate block may go quite a bit past that, but
22 is discarded. The second pass decompresses and recompresses just
23 the compressed data that fit in the requested plus excess sized
24 buffer. The deflate process is terminated after that amount of
25 input, which is less than the amount consumed on the first pass.
26 The last deflate block of the result will be of a comparable size
27 to the final product, so that the header for that deflate block and
28 the compression ratio for that block will be about the same as in
29 the final product. The third compression pass decompresses the
30 result of the second step, but only the compressed data up to the
31 requested size minus an amount to allow the compressed stream to
32 complete (see the MARGIN define below). That will result in a
33 final compressed stream whose length is less than or equal to the
34 requested size. Assuming sufficient input and a requested size
35 greater than a few hundred bytes, the shortfall will typically be
36 less than ten bytes.
37
38 If the input is short enough that the first compression completes
39 before filling the requested output size, then that compressed
40 stream is return with no recompression.
41
42 EXCESS is chosen to be just greater than the shortfall seen in a
43 two pass approach similar to the above. That shortfall is due to
44 the last deflate block compressing more efficiently with a smaller
45 header on the second pass. EXCESS is set to be large enough so
46 that there is enough uncompressed data for the second pass to fill
47 out the requested size, and small enough so that the final deflate
48 block of the second pass will be close in size to the final deflate
49 block of the third and final pass. MARGIN is chosen to be just
50 large enough to assure that the final compression has enough room
51 to complete in all cases.
