In preparation for being able to decompress into a buffer starting at a different address than startup_32, save the calculated output address instead of recalculating it later. We now keep track of three addresses: %edx: startup_32 as we were loaded by bootloader %ebx: new location of compressed kernel %ebp: start of decompression buffer Signed-off-by: Arvind Sankar <nivedita@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200303221205.4048668-2-nivedita@alum.mit.edu Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200308080859.21568-16-ardb@kernel.org
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
