Linux for the Switch
a09935b878
The decompress_kmodule() decompresses kernel modules in order to load
symbols from it. In the DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BUILD_ID_CACHE case, it needs
the full file path to extract the file extension to determine the
decompression method. But overwriting 'name' will fail the
decompression since it might point to a non-existing old file.
Instead, use dso->long_name for having the correct extension and use the
real filename to decompress.
In the DSO_BINARY_TYPE__SYSTEM_PATH_KMODULE_COMP case, both names should
be the same. This allows resolving symbols in the old modules.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
