Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ARM: compressed: Enable ZSTD compression
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2026 22:32:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260828-zstd2-v2-3-4d9ce7150877@kemnade.info> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260828-zstd2-v2-0-4d9ce7150877@kemnade.info>
With the previous two commits, it is possible to enable ZSTD
in the decompressor stub for 32-bit ARM.
KASAN logic for XZ is extended for ZSTD, since
the affected functions are also in use.
Measurement was done with clang-19.
Setup was: starting a fastboot image via u-boot,
serial console attached.
Time was measured using ts -s %.s </dev/ttyUSBx | tee logfile
from the last words from u-boot still the first
kernel message. No early serial output was in use.
GTA04 (OMAP3) with something based on omap2plus_defconfig:
zImage size time
GZIP 7997 KiB 1.6s
LZMA 5794 KiB 4.6s
ZSTD 6774 KiB 2.7s
Tolino Shine 2 HD (i.MX6SL) with something based on imx_v6_v7_defconfig
GZIP 10499 KiB 0.9s
LZMA 7611 KiB 3.8s
ZSTD 8884 KiB 2.0s
