[PATCH 2/2] kexec: Enable zstd in kexec decompression paths

Jeremy Linton jeremy.linton at arm.com
Tue Dec 10 18:58:10 PST 2024


The kexec decompression routines support detecting zlib or lzma
compressed images. Lets add the ability to automatically decompress
zstd ones as well. The zstd attempt is made after gzip because its
fairly inexpensive relative lzma and gzip at this point remains a
popular option.
