  *                         Compressed WIM resources
  *
- * A compressed resource in a WIM consists of a number of compressed chunks,
- * each of which decompresses to a fixed chunk size (given in the WIM header;
- * usually 32768) except possibly the last, which always decompresses to any
- * remaining bytes.  In addition, immediately before the chunks, a table (the
- * "chunk table") provides the offset, in bytes relative to the end of the chunk
- * table, of the start of each compressed chunk, except for the first chunk
- * which is omitted as it always has an offset of 0.  Therefore, a compressed
- * resource with N chunks will have a chunk table with N - 1 entries.
- *
- * Additional information:
+ * A compressed resource in a WIM consists of a sequence of chunks.  Each chunk
+ * decompresses to the same size except possibly for the last, which
+ * decompresses to the remaining size.  Chunks that did not compress to less
+ * than their original size are stored uncompressed.
  *
- * - Entries in the chunk table are 4 bytes each, except if the uncompressed
- *   size of the resource is greater than 4 GiB, in which case the entries in
- *   the chunk table are 8 bytes each.  In either case, the entries are unsigned
- *   little-endian integers.
+ * We support three variations on this resource format, independently of the
+ * compression type and chunk size which can vary as well:
  *
- * - The chunk table is included in the compressed size of the resource provided
- *   in the corresponding entry in the WIM's stream lookup table.
+ * - Original resource format: immediately before the compressed chunks, the
+ *   "chunk table" provides the offset, in bytes relative to the end of the
+ *   chunk table, of the start of each compressed chunk, except for the first
+ *   chunk which is omitted as it always has an offset of 0.  Chunk table
+ *   entries are 32-bit for resources < 4 GiB uncompressed and 64-bit for
+ *   resources >= 4 GiB uncompressed.
  *
- * - The compressed size of a chunk is never greater than the uncompressed size.
- *   From the compressor's point of view, chunks that would have compressed to a
- *   size greater than or equal to their original size are in fact stored
- *   uncompressed.  From the decompresser's point of view, chunks with
- *   compressed size equal to their uncompressed size are in fact uncompressed.
+ * - Solid resource format (distinguished by the use of WIM_RESHDR_FLAG_SOLID
+ *   instead of WIM_RESHDR_FLAG_COMPRESSED): similar to the original format, but
+ *   the resource begins with a 16-byte header which specifies the uncompressed
+ *   size of the resource, the compression type, and the chunk size.  (In the
+ *   original format, these values were instead determined from outside the
+ *   resource itself, from the blob table and the WIM file header.) In addition,
+ *   in this format the entries in the chunk table contain compressed chunk
+ *   sizes rather than offsets.  As a consequence of this, the chunk table
+ *   entries are always 32-bit and there is an entry for chunk 0.
  *
- * Furthermore, wimlib supports its own "pipable" WIM format, and for this the
- * structure of compressed resources was modified to allow piped reading and
- * writing.  To make sequential writing possible, the chunk table is placed
- * after the chunks rather than before the chunks, and to make sequential
- * reading possible, each chunk is prefixed with a 4-byte header giving its
- * compressed size as a 32-bit, unsigned, little-endian integer.  Otherwise the
- * details are the same.
+ * - Pipable resource format (wimlib extension; all resources in a pipable WIM
+ *   have this format): similar to the original format, but the chunk table is
+ *   at the end of the resource rather than the beginning, and each compressed
+ *   chunk is prefixed with its compressed size as a 32-bit integer.  This
+ *   format allows a resource to be written without rewinding.
