tristate "XZ decompression support"
select CRC32
help
LZMA2 compression algorithm and BCJ filters are supported using
the .xz file format as the container. For integrity checking,
CRC32 is supported. See Documentation/staging/xz.rst for more
information.

help
MicroLZMA is a header format variant where the first byte
of a raw LZMA stream (without the end of stream marker) has
been replaced with a bitwise-negation of the lc/lp/pb
properties byte. MicroLZMA was created to be used in EROFS
but can be used by other things too where wasting minimal
amount of space for headers is important.
Unless you know that you need this, say N.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Kernel Services / lib.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
