#include <nitro/mi.h>u32 MI_CompressRL( const u8 *srcp, u32 size, u8 *dstp );
| srcp | The source address where the data to compress is stored. |
size |
The data size of the source to compress. |
| dstp | Needs a pointer to the compression destination buffer and a region greater than the source data size. Needs a 4-byte alignment. |
Returns the size of the compressed data. If the data after compression is larger than the source file, no compression will be performed and a zero will be returned.
Performs RL-compression on the data, then writes it to a specified memory region. A region of the same size as the source data must be prepared in the compression destination buffer.
The function writes in 8-bit units, so an address in VRAM cannot be specified in dstp. An address in VRAM can be specified in srcp.
Processing only takes place on the CPU, without the use of a system call or DMA.
