Hi All,
unfortunately currently I'm not able to reproduce this issue because boards I'm using are not ported to the best so far u-boot tree. However: - I worked with zlib-1.2.3 patch on my current u-boot version (1.3.1) without problem with sh boards. - This u-boot version is a little bit different about decompression, e.g. here we have gunzip inside cmd_bootm and in the bsf it is in a different file (gunzip.c) - Given this, I backported these into 1.3.1 and tested again, with success. I mean, I tested an old u-boot version with newest decompression code. I think it should be a good test, the one I modified is common code and should be self contained.
I'm wondering if something is going wrong only with PPC arch (errors are related to this arch), and in this case I cannot reproduce the issue at all. Please, is there somebody that can test this patch on a differen arch than PPC?
What's your thinking about?
Best regards and, please, let me know. Giuseppe Condorelli

Dear Stefan Roese,

Maybe the zlib update is responsible?
Yes, I'm just noticing the same behaviour:

I checked and verified that commit
b201171f2b4d509f3ad510b214bee70ff902e3d6
[zlib: updated to v.1.2.3] is responsible for this.
So we should probably revert this patch for now. Wolfgang, what do you
think?
I reverted the patch.
Giuseppe, please resubmit, but unly after *thorough* testing, please.
Best regards,
