From c0fbcd9918607e85c9598bfa3dd0a84ed77ea210 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anup Patel Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2018 11:25:15 +0530 Subject: RISC-V: Build flat and compressed kernel images This patch extends Linux RISC-V build system to build and install: Image - Flat uncompressed kernel image Image.gz - Flat and GZip compressed kernel image Quiet a few bootloaders (such as Uboot, UEFI, etc) are capable of booting flat and compressed kernel images. In case of Uboot, booting Image or Image.gz is achieved using bootm command. The flat and uncompressed kernel image (i.e. Image) is very useful in pre-silicon developent and testing because we can create back-door HEX files for RAM on FPGAs from Image.
