Add is_compressed callback to the compressions array, that returns 0 if the file is compressed or != 0 if not. The new callback is used to recognize the situation when we have a 'compressed' object, like: /lib/modules/.../drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.ko.xz but we need to read its debug data from debuginfo files, which might not be compressed, like: /root/.debug/.build-id/d6/...c4b301f/debug So even for a 'compressed' object we read debug data from a plain uncompressed object. To keep this transparent, we detect this in decompress_kmodule() and return the file descriptor to the uncompressed file.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
