Hi Alain, Looking pretty good now. The only issues that I see so far are: - Putting the kernel compression selection in init/Kconfig isn't going to work too well, since it affects all architectures, and not all architectures even do their own decompression (for quite a few architectures it's the boot loader's responsibility.) I see two options here: either have this be parameterized by the arch Kconfig files, or simply move this chunk into arch/*/Kconfig as part of the arch-enablement patches. The latter is probably the simplest, even if it means some replicated code. Let me know what you think -- I can do this pretty easily while importing, so you don't need to submit a full new patchset. - I did a followon patch (attached) to change the ramdisk compression search to table driven. Since I already did the followon patch, don't worry about it. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel. I don't speak on their behalf.
