Hello, I am working on an embedded project using Minnowboard Max with U-boot and customised Linux kernel.
To optimize boot time, currently I am comparing the different comparison algorithms and have read about Brotli compression, which seems to be good. So I have planned to test and see how good is Brotli compression for my use case? The current Linux kernel and U-boot doesn't support this compression, so I have to add this compression algorithm code. I am seeing two ways of doing this, 1. In U-Boot Fit Image creation from vmlinux. Adding Brotli compression to mkimage tool and decompressor to U-Boot. Here we are using mkimage tool to create the image.fit. I can do some changes in mkimage and add the decompressor to the U-boot code 2. In Linux Kernel bzImage --> adding the Brotli compression and decompression to Linux Kernel and change the default compression from gzip to brotli in the Linux kernel Configuration. I don't know which way is comparably easier to implement, any suggestions on these topic will be of great help. Have any body tried this algorithm for the Linux Kernel??
