From 6cad4e56a930034765f8e79ba2eaa2ff1cd8394f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Wielaard Date: Sat, 22 Apr 2023 01:45:43 +0200 Subject: elfcompress: Don't compress if section already compressed unless forced Before commit a5b07cdf9 "support ZSTD compression algorithm" elfcompress would not try to compress a section if it already had the requested compression type (or was already uncompressed) unless the --force flag was given. An else if construct was changed to an if in the commit causing elfcompress to warn (in verbose mode) but then still try to (re)compress the section. Add an explicit check so if nothing needs (un)compressing, the file isn't changed. The diff looks large, but git diff -b -w is just: + if (force || type != schtype) + { if (shdr->sh_type != SHT_NOBITS && (shdr->sh_flags & SHF_ALLOC) == 0) { @@ -554,6 +556,7 @@ process_file (const char *fname) printf ("[%zd] %s ignoring %s section\n", ndx, sname, (shdr->sh_type == SHT_NOBITS ?
