The ZLIB format (RFC 1950) is made of deflate compressed data surrounded by a header and a footer. The QAT accelerators support only the deflate algorithm, therefore the header and the footer need to be inserted in software. This adds logic in the QAT driver to support the ZLIB format. In particular: * Generalize the function qat_comp_alg_compress_decompress() to allow skipping an initial region (header) of the source and/or destination scatter lists. * Add logic to register the qat_zlib_deflate algorithm into the acomp framework. * For ZLIB compression, skip the initial portion of the destination buffer before sending the job to the QAT accelerator and insert the ZLIB header and footer in the callback, after the QAT request has been processed. * For ZLIB decompression, parse the header in the input buffer provided by the user and verify its validity before attempting the decompression of the buffer with QAT. Then submit the buffer to QAT for decompression. In the callback verify the correctness of the footer by comparing the value of the ADLER produced by QAT with the one in the destination buffer.
