2009-01-08bzip2/lzma: fix decompress_inflate.c vs multi-block-with-embedded-filenameAlain Knaff
Impact: Bug fix Fix gunzip uncompression, so that it also works with files with embedded filenames that are larger than one block. Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff <alain@knaff.lu> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-08bzip2/lzma: fix constant in decompress_inflateH. Peter Anvin
Impact: Cleanup Fix constant 0x8100 /* 32K */; according to Alain the value 0x8100 was left over test code to test misalignment, the correct value is indeed 0x8000 == 32K. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-04bzip2/lzma: library support for gzip, bzip2 and lzma decompressionAlain Knaff
Impact: Replaces inflate.c with a wrapper around zlib_inflate; new library code This is the first part of the bzip2/lzma patch The bzip patch is based on an idea by Christian Ludwig, includes support for compressing the kernel with bzip2 or lzma rather than gzip. Both compressors give smaller sizes than gzip. Lzma's decompresses faster than bzip2. It also supports ramdisks and initramfs' compressed using these two compressors. The functionality has been successfully used for a couple of years by the udpcast project This version applies to "tip" kernel 2.6.28 This part contains: - changed inflate.c to accomodate rest of patch - implementation of bzip2 compression (not used at this stage yet) - implementation of lzma compression (not used at this stage yet) - Makefile routines to support bzip2 and lzma kernel compression Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff <alain@knaff.lu> Signed-off-by: H.
