Why would you need to convert the digests on-the-fly? Can't you instead convert in an "offline" fashion, i.e. convert the RPM data into a kernel-understood digest list, and then wrap that in a cpio for use in an initrd? I mean, given the digests are only updated whenever RPM updates are done it sound like something perfectly doable in an "offline" fashion, i.e. convert at the moment of RPM update, and then just stick the covnerted format?
