<@mgorny> gyakovlev: does that work on arm64 too or still need uncompressed? (In reply to Michał Górny from comment #1) > <@mgorny> gyakovlev: does that work on arm64 too or still need uncompressed? arm64 can be booted so many ways... my specific setup uses systemd-boot on EFI, and it wants uncompressed linux image. but that's just my machine with my efi implementation. most other machines use grub or uboot, or rpi loader: all support gzip just fine. file /boot/*/*/linux /boot/***/5.10.15/linux: Linux kernel ARM64 boot executable Image, little-endian, 4K pages don't think it's reasonable to keep image uncompressed for arm64 just because of my setup. I suppose it makes sense then. I'll make the change for the next bump, if I don't forget ;-). Changed in 5.4.114/5.10.32/5.11.16. |
