[PATCH 02/42] x86, boot: Move compressed kernel to end of buffer before decompressing

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Tue Jul 07 2015 - 16:21:05 EST


So we can find out ZO position easily during run-time for kasl buffer
searching.

Current code is using extract_offset to control copied kernel position, it
will put the copied kernel in the middle of buffer when kernel run size is
bigger than decompressed needed buffer size.

Current layout:
when init_size is the same as kernel run_size:
run_size
0 extract_offset init_size
|------------------|------------------------|
VO text/data VO bss/brk
input ZO text ZO data

This patch try to:
move ZO to the end of buffer instead of middle of the buffer.
When init_size is bigger than kernel run size, will have

0 run_size init_size
|--------------------------------|----------|
VO text/data VO bss/brk
input ZO text ZO data

We already have init_size the buffer size, we can find the end easily
when copying ZO before decompressing.
