 * compress_functions.c
 * Copyright  : Kyle Harper
 * License    : Follows same licensing as the lz4.c/lz4.h program at any given time.  Currently, BSD 2.
 * Description: A program to demonstrate the various compression functions involved in when using LZ4_compress_default().  The idea
 *              is to show how each step in the call stack can be used directly, if desired.  There is also some benchmarking for
 *              each function to demonstrate the (probably lack of) performance difference when jumping the stack.
 *              (If you're new to lz4, please read simple_buffer.c to understand the fundamentals)
 *
 *              The call stack (before theoretical compiler optimizations) for LZ4_compress_default is as follows:
 *                LZ4_compress_default
 *                  LZ4_compress_fast
 *                    LZ4_compress_fast_extState
 *                      LZ4_compress_generic
 *
 *              LZ4_compress_default()
 *                This is the recommended function for compressing data.  It will serve as the baseline for comparison.
 *              LZ4_compress_fast()
 *                Despite its name, it's not a "fast" version of compression.  It simply decides if HEAPMODE is set and either
 *                allocates memory on the heap for a struct or creates the struct directly on the stack.  Stack access is generally
 *                faster but this function itself isn't giving that advantage, it's just some logic for compile time.
 *              LZ4_compress_fast_extState()
 *                This simply accepts all the pointers and values collected thus far and adds logic to determine how
 *                LZ4_compress_generic should be invoked; specifically: can the source fit into a single pass as determined by
 *                LZ4_64Klimit.
 *              LZ4_compress_generic()
 *                As the name suggests, this is the generic function that ultimately does most of the heavy lifting.  Calling this
 *                directly can help avoid some test cases and branching which might be useful in some implementation-specific
 *                situations, but you really need to know what you're doing AND what you're asking lz4 to do!  You also need a
 *                wrapper function because this function isn't exposed with lz4.h.
 *
 *              The call stack for decompression functions is shallow.  There are 2 options:
 *                LZ4_decompress_safe  ||  LZ4_decompress_fast
 *                  LZ4_decompress_generic
 *
 *               LZ4_decompress_safe
 *                 This is the recommended function for decompressing data.  It is considered safe because the caller specifies
 *                 both the size of the compresssed buffer to read as well as the maximum size of the output (decompressed) buffer
 *                 instead of just the latter.
 *               LZ4_decompress_fast
 *                 Again, despite its name it's not a "fast" version of decompression.  It simply frees the caller of sending the
 *                 size of the compressed buffer (it will simply be read-to-end, hence it's non-safety).
 *               LZ4_decompress_generic
 *                 This is the generic function that both of the LZ4_decompress_* functions above end up calling.  Calling this
 *                 directly is not advised, period.  Furthermore, it is a static inline function in lz4.c, so there isn't a symbol
 *                 exposed for anyone using lz4.h to utilize.
 *
 *               Special Note About Decompression:
 *               Using the LZ4_decompress_safe() function protects against malicious (user) input.  If you are using data from a
 *               trusted source, or if your program is the producer (P) as well as its consumer (C) in a PC or MPMC setup, you can
 *               safely use the LZ4_decompress_fast function
