Description:
"A massively spiffy yet delicately unobtrusive compression library."
zlib is a free, general-purpose, legally unencumbered lossless data-compression
library. zlib implements the "deflate"compression algorithm described by RFC
1951, which combines the LZ77 (Lempel-Ziv) algorithm with Huffman coding. zlib
also implements the zlib (RFC 1950) and gzip (RFC 1952) wrapper formats.
Local Modifications:
- Only source code from the zlib distribution used to build the zlib and
minizip libraries are present. Many other files have been omitted. Only *.c
and *.h files from the upstream root directory and contrib/minizip were
imported.
- The contents of the google directory are original Chromium-specific
additions.
- google.patch contains changes from the upstream version, mostly related to
the build.
- Intel SIMD optimisations from https://github.com/jtkukunas/zlib/ have been
integrated. These changes are reflected in simd.patch.
