/** @file
  Provides services to decompress a buffer using the UEFI Decompress algorithm.

  The UEFI Decompress Library enables the decompression of objects that 
  were compressed using the UEFI compression scheme. The UEFI Decompress 
  Library is independent of environment and requires the caller to allocate 
  all required memory buffers.

/**
  Given a compressed source buffer, this function retrieves the size of 
  the uncompressed buffer and the size of the scratch buffer required 
  to decompress the compressed source buffer.

  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 RETURN_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 RETURN_SUCCESS is returned.
  This function does not have 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.

  If Source is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If DestinationSize is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If ScratchSize is NULL, then ASSERT().

  @param  Source          The source buffer containing the compressed data.
  @param  SourceSize      The size, in bytes, of the source buffer.
  @param  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.
  @param  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.

  @retval  RETURN_SUCCESS The size of the uncompressed data was returned 
                          in DestinationSize and the size of the scratch 
                          buffer was returned in ScratchSize.
  @retval  RETURN_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 SourceSize.

/**
  Decompresses a compressed source buffer.

  Extracts decompressed data to its original form.
  This function is designed so that the decompression algorithm can be implemented
  without using any memory services.  As a result, this function is not allowed to
  call any memory allocation services 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 is successfully decompressed 
  into Destination, then RETURN_SUCCESS is returned.  If the compressed source data 
  specified by Source is not in a valid compressed data format,
  then RETURN_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned.

  If Source is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If Destination is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If the required scratch buffer size > 0 and Scratch is NULL, then ASSERT().

  @param  Source      The source buffer containing the compressed data.
  @param  Destination The destination buffer to store the decompressed data
  @param  Scratch     A temporary scratch buffer that is used to perform the decompression.
                      This is an optional parameter that may be NULL if the 
                      required scratch buffer size is 0.
                     
  @retval  RETURN_SUCCESS Decompression completed successfully, and 
                          the uncompressed buffer is returned in Destination.
  @retval  RETURN_INVALID_PARAMETER 
                          The source buffer specified by Source is corrupted 
                          (not in a valid compressed format).
