This state includes flags which - * control the module's behavior and preallocated working memory. One - * such structure is present for each VPN tunnel, and is stored in the \c - * context.c2.lzo_compwork of the \c context associated with that VPN - * tunnel. - * - * @par Initialization and cleanup - * Every time a new \c lzo_compress_workspace is needed, it must be - * initialized using the \c lzo_compress_init() function. Similarly, - * every time a \c lzo_compress_workspace is no longer needed, it must be - * cleaned up using the \c lzo_compress_uninit() function. These - * functions take care of the allocation and freeing of internal working - * memory, but not of the \c lzo_compress_workspace structures themselves. - * - * @par - * Because of the one-to-one relationship between \c - * lzo_compress_workspace structures and VPN tunnels, the above-mentioned - * initialization and cleanup functions are called directly from the \c - * init_instance() and \c close_instance() functions, which control the - * initialization and cleanup of VPN tunnel instances and their associated - * \c context structures. - * - * @par Packet processing functions - * This module receives data channel packets from the \link data_control - * Data Channel Control module\endlink and processes them according to the - * settings of the packet's VPN tunnel. The \link data_control Data - * Channel Control module\endlink uses the following interface functions: - * - For packets which will be sent to a remote OpenVPN peer: \c - * lzo_compress() - * - For packets which have been received from a remote OpenVPN peer: \c - * lzo_decompress() - * - * @par Settings that control this module's activity - * Whether or not the Data Channel Compression module is active depends on - * the compile-time \c ENABLE_LZO preprocessor macro and the runtime flags - * stored in \c lzo_compress_workspace.flags of the associated VPN tunnel. - * The latter are initialized from \c options.lzo, which gets its value - * from the process's configuration sources, such as its configuration - * file or command line %options. - * - * @par Adaptive compression - * The compression module supports adaptive compression. If this feature - * is enabled, the compression routines monitor their own performance and - * turn compression on or off depending on whether it is leading to - * significantly reduced payload size. - * - * @par Compression algorithms - * This module uses the Lempel-Ziv-Oberhumer (LZO) compression algorithms. - * These offer lossless compression and are designed for high-performance - * decompression.
