Does anyone (Phillip?) know the status of SquashFS support
for LZMA compression in mainline? I seem to recall that
Phillip got the patches for this into linux-next sometime
in January, but I'm not sure if the latest kernel
(2.6.34-rcxx) includes this or not.
I also see in Linus' git tree the following commits in
March:
2010-03-05 Linus Torvalds Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git...
...git://git./linux/kernel/git/pkl/squashfs-linus
...org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pkl/squashfs-linus:
Squashfs: get rid of obsolete definition...
Squashfs: get rid of obsolete variable...
Squashfs: add decompressor entries for...
Squashfs: add a decompressor framework
Squashfs: factor out remaining zlib dependencies...
Squashfs: move zlib decompression wrapper...
2010-03-05 Phillip Lougher Squashfs: get rid of obsolete variable in struct squashfs_sb...
Squashfs: get rid of obsolete variable...
Is this everything, or are there still things outstanding?
In January the V3 patches were labeled:
lzma: Make lzma available to non initramfs/initrd code
lzma: make lzma reentrant
The first one of these modifies lib/Kconfig, but I don't
see a change (in git) authored by Phillip in this time frame.
Thanks for any information you can provide.
