22 *If len = 0, inbuf can be NULL, in which case the decompressor will allocate
23 *the input buffer. If inbuf != NULL it must be at least XXX_IOBUF_SIZE bytes.
24 *fill will be called (repeatedly...) to read data, at most XXX_IOBUF_SIZE
25 *bytes should be read per call. Replace XXX with the appropriate decompressor
26 *name, i.e. LZMA_IOBUF_SIZE.

28 *If flush = NULL, outbuf must be large enough to buffer all the expected
29 *output. If flush != NULL, the output buffer will be allocated by the
30 *decompressor (outbuf = NULL), and the flush function will be called to
31 *flush the output buffer at the appropriate time (decompressor and stream
32 *dependent).
