From 9ba4bcb645898d562498ea66a0df958ef0e7a68c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: P J P Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2013 15:10:22 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image; This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables. But usr/Makefile uses earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file. Since none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains un-compressed. This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds support for LZ4 compression algorithm. Also updates the 'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression command is accessible or not. And fall-back to default gzip(1) compression when it is not.
