What ever happened to: [PATCH] MIPS: add support for gzip/bzip2/lzma compressed kernel images

What ever happened to: [PATCH] MIPS: add support for gzip/bzip2/lzma compressed kernel images

[Steven Rostedt]

Hi,

I'm playing with ftrace on MIPS thanks to Lemote for supplying me a
machine. And I noticed that, although Wu's repo gives me a nice vmlinuz
to install, the default kernels do not.

Wu wrote a nice patch that adds this feature, and I see that he posted
it a few months back:

http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-08/msg00056.html

I do not see it in the mainline nor in Ralf's repo on kernel.org. I'm
hoping that it did not get lost and forgotten. What ever happened to it?

Thanks,

-- Steve

Ralf have added this to his -queue git repo:

http://www.linux-mips.org/git?p=linux-queue.git;a=commit;h=9d20b1ddf20c3ead5e381a1d06471c33d7f3cb6d

Thanks :-)

Ah, I was looking at Ralf's kernel.org repo.

Ralf,

Which is the main repo? The one Wu shows above?

Thanks,

Wu's URL is the linux-queue repo which contains the stuff that will go
into the next -rc0 MIPS kernel.  This -queue repo is not replicated to
kernel.org.

The main repo is

   http://www.linux-mips.org/git?p=linux.git;a=summary

which I'm replicating to kernel.org.
