Mark Adler    madler@alumni.caltech.edu *//*   The gzlog object allows writing short messages to a gzipped log file,   opening the log file locked for small bursts, and then closing it.  The log   object works by appending stored data to the gzip file until 1 MB has been   accumulated.  At that time, the stored data is compressed, and replaces the   uncompressed data in the file.  The log file is truncated to its new size at   that time.  After closing, the log file is always valid gzip file that can   decompressed to recover what was written.   A gzip header "extra" field contains two file offsets for appending.  The   first points to just after the last compressed data.  The second points to   the last stored block in the deflate stream, which is empty.  All of the   data between those pointers is uncompressed. *//* Open a gzlog object, creating the log file if it does not exist.  Return   NULL on error.  Note that gzlog_open() could take a long time to return if   there is difficulty in locking the file. */void *gzlog_open(char *path);/* Write to a gzlog object.  Return non-zero on error.  This function will   simply write data to the file uncompressed.  Compression of the data   will not occur until gzlog_close() is called.  It is expected that   gzlog_write() is used for a short message, and then gzlog_close() is   called.  If a large amount of data is to be written, then the application   should write no more than 1 MB at a time with gzlog_write() before   calling gzlog_close() and then gzlog_open() again. */int gzlog_write(void *log, char *data, size_t len);/* Close a gzlog object.  Return non-zero on error.  The log file is locked   until this function is called.  This function will compress stored data   at the end of the gzip file if at least 1 MB has been accumulated.  Note   that the file will not be a valid gzip file until this function completes. */int gzlog_close(void *log);
