This can be either a single cpio archive with a .cpio suffix or a
|
|
space-separated list of directories and files for building the
|
|
initramfs image. A cpio archive should contain a filesystem archive
|
|
to be used as an initramfs image. Directories should contain a
|
|
filesystem layout to be included in the initramfs image. Files
|
|
should contain entries according to the format described by the
|
|
"usr/gen_init_cpio" program in the kernel tree.
|
|
|
|
When multiple directories and files are specified then the
|
|
initramfs image will be the aggregate of all of them.

See <file:Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/early_userspace_support.rst> for more details.

This option causes the kernel to ignore the initramfs image

analogous to CMDLINE_FORCE, which is found on some architectures,

your bootloader passes to the kernel.

prompt "Built-in initramfs compression mode"
|
|
depends on INITRAMFS_SOURCE != ""
|
|
help
|
|
This option allows you to decide by which algorithm the builtin
|
|
initramfs will be compressed. Several compression algorithms are
|
|
available, which differ in efficiency, compression and
|
|
decompression speed. Compression speed is only relevant
|
|
when building a kernel. Decompression speed is relevant at
|
|
each boot. Also the memory usage during decompression may become
|
|
relevant on memory constrained systems. This is usually based on the
|
|
dictionary size of the algorithm with algorithms like XZ and LZMA
|
|
featuring large dictionary sizes.
|
|
|
|
High compression options are mostly useful for users who are
|
|
low on RAM, since it reduces the memory consumption during
|
|
boot.
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that your build system needs to provide the appropriate
|
|
compression tool to compress the generated initram cpio file for
|
|
embedding.
|
|
|
|
If in doubt, select 'None'

config INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP

help
|
|
Use the old and well tested gzip compression algorithm. Gzip provides
|
|
a good balance between compression ratio and decompression speed and
|
|
has a reasonable compression speed. It is also more likely to be
|
|
supported by your build system as the gzip tool is present by default
|
|
on most distros.

help
|
|
It's compression ratio and speed is intermediate. Decompression speed
|
|
is slowest among the choices. The initramfs size is about 10% smaller
|
|
with bzip2, in comparison to gzip. Bzip2 uses a large amount of
|
|
memory. For modern kernels you will need at least 8MB RAM or more for
|
|
booting.
|
|
|

If you choose this, keep in mind that you need to have the bzip2 tool

available to be able to compress the initram.

help

This algorithm's compression ratio is best but has a large dictionary

size which might cause issues in memory constrained systems.

Decompression speed is between the other choices. Compression is
|
|
slowest. The initramfs size is about 33% smaller with LZMA in
|
|
comparison to gzip.

If you choose this, keep in mind that you may need to install the xz

XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and has a large dictionary which may cause

problems on memory constrained systems. The initramfs size is about

30% smaller with XZ in comparison to gzip. Decompression speed is
|
|
better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip and LZO. Compression is
|

slow.

It's compression ratio is the second poorest amongst the choices. The

decompression speed is the second fastest and it's compression speed
|

is quite fast too.

It's compression ratio is the poorest amongst the choices. The kernel

ZSTD is a compression algorithm targeting intermediate compression

with fast decompression speed. It will compress better than GZIP and

decompress around the same speed as LZO, but slower than LZ4.

config INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE

bool "None"

|
help
|
|
Do not compress the built-in initramfs at all. This may sound wasteful
|
|
in space, but, you should be aware that the built-in initramfs will be
|
|
compressed at a later stage anyways along with the rest of the kernel,
|
|
on those architectures that support this. However, not compressing the
|
|
initramfs may lead to slightly higher memory consumption during a
|
|
short time at boot, while both the cpio image and the unpacked
|
|
filesystem image will be present in memory simultaneously
