EFI_DECOMPRESS_DECOMPRESS

typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_DECOMPRESS_DECOMPRESS) (IN EFI_DECOMPRESS_PROTOCOL *This, IN VOID *Source, IN UINT32 SourceSize, IN OUT VOID *Destination, IN UINT32 DestinationSize, IN OUT VOID *Scratch, IN UINT32 ScratchSize)

The Decompress() function extracts decompressed data to its original form.

This protocol is designed so that the decompression algorithm can be implemented without using any memory services. As a result, the Decompress() function is not allowed to call AllocatePool() or AllocatePages() in its implementation. It is the caller's responsibility to allocate and free the Destination and Scratch buffers.

If the compressed source data specified by Source and SourceSize is successfully decompressed into Destination, then EFI_SUCCESS is returned. If the compressed source data specified by Source and SourceSize is not in a valid compressed data format, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

Parameters

This	A pointer to the EFI_DECOMPRESS_PROTOCOL instance.
Source	The source buffer containing the compressed data.
SourceSize	The size of source data.
Destination	On output, the destination buffer that contains the uncompressed data.
DestinationSize	The size of destination buffer. The size of destination buffer needed is obtained from GetInfo().
Scratch	A temporary scratch buffer that is used to perform the decompression.
ScratchSize	The size of scratch buffer. The size of scratch buffer needed is obtained from GetInfo().

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	Decompression completed successfully, and the uncompressed buffer is returned in Destination.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER	The source buffer specified by Source and SourceSize is corrupted (not in a valid compressed format).

EFI_DECOMPRESS_GET_INFO

typedef EFI_STATUS(EFIAPI * EFI_DECOMPRESS_GET_INFO) (IN EFI_DECOMPRESS_PROTOCOL *This, IN VOID *Source, IN UINT32 SourceSize, OUT UINT32 *DestinationSize, OUT UINT32 *ScratchSize)

The GetInfo() function retrieves the size of the uncompressed buffer and the temporary scratch buffer required to decompress the buffer specified by Source and SourceSize. If the size of the uncompressed buffer or the size of the scratch buffer cannot be determined from the compressed data specified by Source and SourceData, then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned. Otherwise, the size of the uncompressed buffer is returned in DestinationSize, the size of the scratch buffer is returned in ScratchSize, and EFI_SUCCESS is returned.

The GetInfo() function does not have a scratch buffer available to perform a thorough checking of the validity of the source data. It just retrieves the 'Original Size' field from the beginning bytes of the source data and output it as DestinationSize. And ScratchSize is specific to the decompression implementation.

Parameters

This	A pointer to the EFI_DECOMPRESS_PROTOCOL instance.
Source	The source buffer containing the compressed data.
SourceSize	The size, in bytes, of source buffer.
DestinationSize	A pointer to the size, in bytes, of the uncompressed buffer that will be generated when the compressed buffer specified by Source and SourceSize is decompressed.
ScratchSize	A pointer to the size, in bytes, of the scratch buffer that is required to decompress the compressed buffer specified by Source and SourceSize.

Return values

EFI_SUCCESS	The size of the uncompressed data was returned in DestinationSize and the size of the scratch buffer was returned in ScratchSize.
EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER	The size of the uncompressed data or the size of the scratch buffer cannot be determined from the compressed data specified by Source and SourceData.
