Pstore supports compression using a variety of algorithms exposed by the crypto API. This uses the deprecated comp (as opposed to scomp/acomp) API, and so we should stop using that, and either move to the new API, or switch to a different approach entirely. Given that we only compress ASCII text in pstore, and considering that this happens when the system is likely to be in an unstable state, the flexibility that the complex crypto API provides does not outweigh its impact on the risk that we might encounter additional problems when trying to commit the kernel log contents to the pstore backend. So let's switch [back] to the zlib deflate library API, and remove all the complexity that really has no place in a low-level diagnostic facility. Note that, while more modern compression algorithms have been added to the kernel in recent years, the code size of zlib deflate is substantially smaller than, e.g., zstd, while its performance in terms of compression ratio is comparable for ASCII text, and speed is deemed irrelevant in this context. Note that this means that compressed pstore records may no longer be accessible after a kernel upgrade, but this has never been part of the contract. (The choice of compression algorithm is not stored in the pstore records either) Tested-by: "Guilherme G.

help
|
|
This option enables generic access to platform level
|
|
persistent storage via "pstore" filesystem that can
|
|
be mounted as /dev/pstore. Only useful if you have
|
|
a platform level driver that registers with pstore to
|
|
provide the data, so you probably should just go say "Y"
|
|
(or "M") to a platform specific persistent store driver
|
|
(e.g. ACPI_APEI on X86) which will select this for you.
|
|
If you don't have a platform persistent store driver,

say N.

Whether pstore records should be compressed before being written to

the backing store. This is implemented using the zlib 'deflate'

blown crypto API. This reduces the risk of secondary oopses or other

problems while pstore is recording panic metadata.
