Hi...

in 2.4.20 code, in comment say this clear BSS, i think this not only
clear the BSS and set other data ,them are not belong to BSS, such as
.data.init_task to zero

I check similar sections on 2.6.22. My conclusion is, the comment seems refer to general BSS meanings, that is non initialized data section... not just the .bss section. As far as I can tell, sections between _edata and _end are non initialized data section... they are filled after kernel decompression.

regards,

Mulyadi
