I just ran into this exact same issue, when disabling DEV_BLK_INITRD
and setting SQUASHFS to "m" and selecting SQUASHFS_LZMA. The option
then evaluates to:
DECOMPRESS_LZMA [=m]
Selected by: RD_LZMA [=n] && BLK_DEV_INITRD [=n] ||
SQUASHFS_LZMA [=y] && MISC_FILESYSTEMS [=y] && SQUASHFS [=m]
With these settings the linker complains:
Error: "unlzma" [fs/squashfs/squashfs.ko] undefined
Please change DECOMPRESS_LZMA (and perhaps the other DECOMPRESS_*
symbols) to boolean.
Regards,
Marcel
