ls_encode_line() encodes one line of input from left to right and to do so it uses the values of the left, upper left, upper and upper right pixels for prediction (i.e. the values that a decoder gets when it decodes the already encoded part of the picture). So a simple algorithm would use a buffer that can hold two lines, namely the current line as well as the last line and swap the pointers to the two lines after decoding each line. Yet if one is currently encoding the pixel with index k of a line, one doesn't need any pixel with index < k - 1 of the last line at all and similarly, no pixels with index >= k have been written yet. So the overlap in the effective lifetime is pretty limited and since the last patch (which stopped reading the upper left pixel and instead reused the value of the upper pixel from the last iteration of the loop) it is inexistent. Ergo one only needs one line and doesn't need to swap the lines out. Signed-off-by: Andreas Rheinhardt <andreas.rheinhardt@gmail.com>
