The whole interface of the bzlib was modelled after the zlib interface.
The zlib interface is actually problematic, it doesn't allow handling of scatter-gather lists on input or output for example.
Therefore we couldn't make the compress cryptolib interface take scatterlists elements either, which is a huge problem. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
