Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Modern Linux kernels support zstd-compressed modules, which was added
by commit 73f3d1b48f50 ("lib: Add zstd modules").

Commit c3d7ef377eb ("kbuild: add support for zstd compressed modules")
added support of compressing modules with zstd to kernel Makefiles.

libkmod >= 28 built with libzstd is also required.
