/*
* Definitions for fifolog "protocol": the on-media layout.
*
* The fifolog on-media record has three layers:
* The outer timestamping and synchronization layer.
* The zlib implemented data compression.
* The inner sequencing and identification layer.
*
* All three layers are synchronized at a subset of the outer layer
* record boundaries, from where reading can be initiated.
*
*
* The outer layer:
* -----------------
* The first record in a fifolog contains a magic string and version
* information along with a 32be encoded recordsize for all records
* in the fifolog, including the first.
* The recordsize is explicit to avoid ambiguities when a media is
* moved from one machine to another.
*
* Each record in the fifolog has the following contents:
* offset type contents
* --------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 32be sequence_number
* The sequence number is randomly chosen for the
* fifolog and increments once for each record written.
* It's presence allow quick identification of the next
* record to be written using a binary search for the
* first place where a discontinuity in the sequence
* numbers occur.
* 4 8 flags (FIFOLOG_FLG_*)
*
* If (flags & (FIFOLOG_FLG_SYNC)) the record is a synchronization point
* at which the inner layers are aligned so that reading can be started
* at this point.
* To enable seeks into the file based on timestamps, a third field is
* present in these records as well:
* 5 32be time_t containing POSIX's understanding of UTC.
*
* These fields are immediately followed by the inner layer payload as
* described below, which has variable length.
*
* If the inner layer payload is shorter than the available space in
* the record, it is padded with zero bytes, and the number of unused
* bytes, including the encoded length thereof is recorded at the end
* of the record as follows:
*
* If (flags & FIFOLOG_FLG_1BYTE)
* n-1 8 number of unused bytes
* else if (flags & FIFOLOG_FLG_4BYTE)
* n-4 32be number of unused bytes
*
*
* The gzip layer
* --------------
* Is just output from zlib, nothing special here. FIFOLOG_FLG_SYNC
* corresponds to Z_FINISH flags to zlib.
* In most cases, the timer will expire before zlib has filled an entire
* record in which case Z_SYNC_FLUSH will be used to force as much as
* possible into the buffer before it is written. This is not marked
* in outer layer (apart from a natural correlation with padding) since
* zlibs data stream handles this without help.
*
*
* The inner layer:
* ----------------
* The inner layer contains data identification and to the second
* timestamping (the timestamp in the outer layer only marks the
* first possible timestamp for content in the SYNC record).
*
* offset type contents
* --------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 32be ident
*
* The bottom 30 bits of the identification word are application defined,
* presently unused in the stand-alone fifolog tools, but used in the
* original "measured" application that originated the fifolog format.
* Should for instance syslogd(8) grow native support for fifolog format,
* it could store the message priority here.
*
* If (ident & FIFOLOG_TIMESTAMP) the record is prefixed by:
* 4 32be time_t containing POSIX's understanding of UTC.
*
* Then follows the content, either as a NUL terminated string or as
* a length encoded binary sequence:
*
* If (ident & FIFOLOG_LENGTH) the record is prefixed by:
* {0|4} 8 length of binary data
*
