Booting an lz4-compressed kernel image fails on our powerpc board with
-EPROTONOSUPPORT. Adding a bit of debug prints, we get
magic: 0x184d2204
flags: 0x64
reserved0: 1
has_content_checksum: 1
has_content_size: 0
has_block_checksum: 0
independent_blocks: 1
version: 0
block_descriptor: 70
reserved1: 7
max_block_size: 0
reserved2: 0
So the magic is ok, but the version check fails, also some reserved
bits are apparently set. But that's because the code interprets the
"flags" and "block_descriptor" bytes wrongly:
Using bit-fields to access individual bits of an "on the wire" format
is not portable, not even when restricted to the C flavour implemented
by gcc. Quoting the gcc manual:
* 'The order of allocation of bit-fields within a unit (C90 6.5.2.1,
C99 and C11 6.7.2.1).'
Determined by ABI.
and indeed, the PPC Processor ABI supplement says
* Bit-fields are allocated from right to left (least to most
significant) on Little-Endian implementations and from left to
right (most to least significant) on Big-Endian implementations.
The upstream code (github.com/lz4/lz4) uses explicit shifts and masks
for encoding/decoding:
/* FLG Byte */
*dstPtr++ = (BYTE)(((1 & _2BITS) << 6) /* Version('01') */
+ ((cctxPtr->prefs.frameInfo.blockMode & _1BIT ) << 5)
+ ((cctxPtr->prefs.frameInfo.blockChecksumFlag & _1BIT ) << 4)
+ ((unsigned)(cctxPtr->prefs.frameInfo.contentSize > 0) << 3)
+ ((cctxPtr->prefs.frameInfo.contentChecksumFlag & _1BIT ) << 2)
+ (cctxPtr->prefs.frameInfo.dictID > 0) );
/* Flags */
{ U32 const FLG = srcPtr[4];
U32 const version = (FLG>>6) & _2BITS;
blockChecksumFlag = (FLG>>4) & _1BIT;
blockMode = (FLG>>5) & _1BIT;
contentSizeFlag = (FLG>>3) & _1BIT;
contentChecksumFlag = (FLG>>2) & _1BIT;
dictIDFlag = FLG & _1BIT;
/* validate */
if (((FLG>>1)&_1BIT) != 0) return err0r(LZ4F_ERROR_reservedFlag_set); /* Reserved bit */
if (version != 1) return err0r(LZ4F_ERROR_headerVersion_wrong); /* Version Number, only supported value */
}
Do the same here, and while at it, be more careful to use unaligned
accessors to what is most likely unaligned. Also update the comment to
make it clear that it only refers to the lz4.c file, not the following
code of lz4_wrapper.c.
This has been tested partly, of course, by seeing that my
lz4-compressed kernel now boots, partly by running the (de)compression
test-suite in the (x86_64) sandbox - i.e., it should still work just
fine on little-endian hosts.

Add a header file to house the lz4 compression function. Add a comment
while we are here, since it not even clear from the name what the function
actuall does.

According to Android image format [1], kernel image resides at 1 page
offset from the boot image address. Grab the magic number from there
and allow U-Boot to handle LZ4-compressed KNL binaries instead of
hardcoding compression type to IH_COMP_NONE. Other compression types,
if needed, can be added later.
Tested on H3ULCB-KF using the image detailed in [2].

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have multiple licenses (in
these cases, dual license) declared in the SPDX-License-Identifier tag.
In this case we change from listing "LICENSE-A LICENSE-B" or "LICENSE-A
or LICENSE-B" or "(LICENSE-A OR LICENSE-B)" to "LICENSE-A OR LICENSE-B"
as per the Linux Kernel style document. Note that parenthesis are
allowed so when they were used before we continue to use them.

gcc 4.4.3 (which is the default native compiler on x86-64 Ubuntu 10.04)
doesn't seem to like initializers for sub-fields of anonymous unions.
Solve this by replacing the initialization with an assignment. This
fixes:
lib/lz4_wrapper.c: In function ‘ulz4fn’:

This patch adds support for LZ4-compressed FIT image contents. This
algorithm has a slightly worse compression ration than LZO while being
nearly twice as fast to decompress. When loading images from a fast
storage medium this usually results in a boot time win.
Sandbox-tested only since I don't have a U-Boot development system set
up right now. The code was imported unchanged from coreboot where it's
proven to work, though. I'm mostly interested in getting this recognized
by mkImage for use in a downstream project.
