| 1 The network stack implements support for Content-Encodings using | |
| 2 "source streams", which can be composed together and mutate all the incoming | |
| 3 bytes from a URLRequestJob. Currently, the following streams are implemented: | |
| 4 | |
| 5 * gzip (handling "deflate" and "gzip" Content-Encodings) | |
| 6 * sdch (handling "sdch" Content-Encoding) | |
| 7 * brotli (handling "br" Content-Encoding) | |
| 8 | |
| 9 Source streams conceptually form a chain, with the URLRequestJob as both the | |
| 10 beginning and end of the chain, meaning the URLRequestJob produces raw bytes at | |
| 11 the end and consumes unencoded bytes at the beginning. For example, to support a | |
| 12 hypothetical "Content-Encoding: bar,foo", streams would be arranged like so, | |
| 13 with "X <-- Y" meaning "data flows from Y to X" or "X reads data from Y". Data | |
| 14 always flows from upstream to downstream: | |

nit, suggestion: I find the last sentence redundan

Done.

| 19 Here URLRequestJob pulls filtered bytes from its upstream, BarSourceStream, | |
| 20 which pulls filtered bytes from FooSourceStream, which in turn pulls raw bytes | |
| 21 from URLRequestJob. URLRequestSourceStream is the ultimate upstream, which | |
| 22 produces the raw data. Every stream in the chain owns its upstream. In this | |
| 23 case, the ultimate downstream, URLRequestJob, owns its upstream, | |
| 24 BarSourceStream, which in turn owns FooSourceStream. FooSourceStream owns its | |
| 25 upstream, URLRequestSourceStream. | |
| 26 | |
| 27 All source streams conform to the following interface (named SourceStream in the | |
| 28 tree): | |
| 29 | |
| 30 int Read(IOBuffer* dest_buffer, size_t buffer_size, | |
| 31 const OnReadCompleteCallback& callback); | |
| 32 | |
| 33 This function can return either synchronously or asynchronously via the supplied | |
| 34 callback. The source stream chain is "pull-based", in that data does not | |
| 35 propagate through the chain until requested by the final consumer of the | |
| 36 filtered data. | |
