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
