From: Nick Terrell <terrelln@fb.com>

* Add support for zstd compressed kernel
* Define __DISABLE_EXPORTS in misc.c
* Bump the heap size for zstd.
* Update the documentation.

Integrates the ZSTD decompression code to the x86 pre-boot code.

Zstandard requires slightly more memory during the kernel decompression
on x86 (192 KB vs 64 KB), and the memory usage is independent of the
window size.

__DISABLE_EXPORTS is defined in misc.c instead of the Makefile because
kaslr.c defines __DISABLE_EXPORTS, and defining it in the Makefile gives
duplicate definition warnings.

This patch has been boot tested with both a zstd and gzip compressed
kernel on i386 and x86_64 using buildroot and QEMU.

Additionally, this has been tested in production on x86_64 devices.
We saw a 2 second boot time reduction by switching kernel compression
from xz to zstd.

So the other patches explain why the decompression buffer extra space 
was increased from 64k to 128k, but is there a similar 
calculation/estimate for bumping BOOT_HEAD_SIZE from 64k to 192k?

Admittedly the BZ2 exception doesn't set a good example, but maybe we 
can do this for ZSTD?

Thanks,

	Ingo

By the way, I have a patchset on top of this, to drop BZ2 and LZMA(1)
support, that should clean up this code somewhat.  And bring a lot of
lines of Linus happiness, as both bzip2 and lzma code are not used by
anything else in the kernel, unlike lzma2 (xz).

If you draw a speed-vs-size graph, at no point bzip2 or lzma are a good
choice, while zstd wins by a large margin for most of the range.

It's not necessary to add Reported-by's for problems encountered while
developing the series. Especially as it was my drive-by suggestion to
use __DISABLE_EXPORTS that introduced the issue in the first place :)

I'd have added it to the Makefile and just dropped the definition in
kaslr.c -- should be no reason for anything in here to use EXPORT_SYMBOL.

Thanks.

I cannot follow - this is no more needed as this was due to some of
your local changes in kaslr.c?

That part was meant as a comment on the patch, i.e. avoid the duplicate
definition warning not by putting it in misc.c instead of the Makefile,
but by dropping the definition in kaslr.c.

Yup, the next version will include an explanation. Thanks for the review!

Sure, I was a bit hesitant to modify more than necessary here, but I will go
ahead and do that.
