Hi Victor,


this seems quite easy to me.... but I don't know how to "move around" to actually implement/propose the required changes.


To make grub aware of gzip (as it already is of lzjb) the steps should be:


1. create a new

/onnv-gate/usr/src/grub/grub-0.95/stage2/zfs_gzip.c

starting from

/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/fs/zfs/gzip.c

and removing the gzip_compress funcion


2. add gzip_decompress

at the end of

/onnv-gate/usr/src/grub/grub-0.95/stage2/fsys_zfs.h


3. update the decomp_table function to link "gzip" and all "gzip-N" (with N=1...9) to the gzip_decompress function in

/onnv-gate/usr/src/grub/grub-0.95/stage2/fsys_zfs.c


What should I do to go on with this changes? Should I start a "community project"?

These changes look simple enough so there is no point setting up community project imho.

Just implement it, test it then ask for a sponsor and integrate it.
