-> https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/25/21 I'v pushed a patch from Mr Hristo to the same effect. I guess it's still in the queue. I haven't received any review for it yet. (...Andrew?) | Actually, I think this patch makes the initramfs compression | configuration quite confusing. Consider the following configuration | for a 3.13-rc3 kernel: | | CONFIG_RD_GZIP=y | CONFIG_RD_LZMA=y | CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZMA=y | | This now produces a gzipped initramfs_data.cpio against a lzma one | previously. That is because, when multiple options are set, CONFIG_RD_GZIP is checked last in the usr/Makefile. ... # Gzip suffix_$(CONFIG_RD_GZIP) = .gz Hope it helps. -- Prasad J Pandit / Red Hat Security Response Team -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
