Hi all. In arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_32.S before the call of decompress_kernel() it load the address of z_extract_offset_negative(%ebx) as the output address and actually the output_len of the decompressed kernel is larger than extract_offset so the decompressed data will override the uncompressed data begin at input_data Is that the case? How does it worked as the the input buffer is covered by the output buffer while uncompressing? It confused me a lot. or I'd made some misunderstanding on the decompressing routine? Thanks. 2011-08-27 jiangtao.jit _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
