This patch (which is in linux-next) breaks
lib-add-support-for-lzo-compressed-kernels.patch, below.  The
definition of INIT is no longer available in lib/decompress_unlzo.c, and

lib/decompress_unlzo.c: In function 'unlzo':
lib/decompress_unlzo.c:106: error: 'error' undeclared (first use in this function)
lib/decompress_unlzo.c:106: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
lib/decompress_unlzo.c:106: error: for each function it appears in.)
lib/decompress_unlzo.c:111: error: implicit declaration of function 'error'


I'm planning on merging 

zlib-optimize-inffast-when-copying-direct-from-output.patch
lib-add-support-for-lzo-compressed-kernels.patch
arm-add-support-for-lzo-compressed-kernels.patch
x86-add-support-for-lzo-compressed-kernels.patch
add-lzo-compression-support-for-initramfs-and-old-style-initrd.patch

into 2.6.33.  I don't immediately remember why I decided that - perhaps
because the patches did arrive in time for .33, but got stalled because
people were screwing around in other trees.

So if I go ahead with that merge, linux-next will need fixing.  And I
didn't get down and work what the appropriate fix is, and I don't want
to break linux-next in serious ways.


So what to do?  I guess I could go ahead with the mainline merge, and
Stephen drops <whatever that tree was> from linux-next until it has
been fixed up?

If we decide to hold the above five patches off until 2.6.34 then
they'll need to be fixed up to work against linux-next, and they will
be dependent upon your patch series.




From: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting
LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on
the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using
LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images.


Russell King said:

: Testing on a Cortex A9 model:
: - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel
: - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel
: 
: which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two.
: 
: However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code:
: - new is 99% of the size of the old code
: - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code
: 
: What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better:
: - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image
: - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took
: 
: So the expense seems definitely worth the effort.  The only reason I
: can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional
: compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.)
: 
: I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO.


This patch:

The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at
extraction.  Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on:

Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo
gzip  1.61Mo 0.72s
lzo   1.75Mo 0.48s

So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's
much faster to extract, at least in that case.

This part contains:
 - Makefile routine to support lzo compression
 - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in
   compressed kernels
 - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one
   block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here
 - config dialog for kernel compression
