Thomas, All,

This breaks the squashfs tests:

    Filesystem uses "lz4" compression. This is not supported
    List of all partitions:
    1f00          131072 mtdblock0
     (driver?)
    1f01           32768 mtdblock1
     (driver?)
    b300            2048 mmcblk0
     driver: mmcblk
    No filesystem could mount root, tried:
     squashfs

    Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,0)

And indeed, if we boot this kernel with a gzip-compressed squashfs, ad
we look at the configuration (irrelevant options omitted for brevity):

    # zcat /proc/config.gz |grep SQUA
    CONFIG_SQUASHFS=y
    CONFIG_SQUASHFS_ZLIB=y
    # CONFIG_SQUASHFS_LZ4 is not set
    CONFIG_SQUASHFS_LZO=y
    # CONFIG_SQUASHFS_XZ is not set

Could you rebuild the kernel (but not nice for those like who already
have it cached locally), or build a newer-yet kernel?

Or should we just change our test(s) to use lzo instead of lz4?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
