kmod 28 supports modules compressed in zstd format so let's add this possibility to kernel.
V2 -> V3
* Fix a typo
V1 -> V2
* Rebuild against linux-kbuild tree

Applied to linux-kbuild. Thanks!
I slightly changed to fix the log alignment.

No, the --rm option is essential. xz and gzip have the --rm option built in as opposed to zstd, which is why I used it. I've been using zstd module compression since last december (although I set a different compression level on mine) and everything works fine. Oleksandr also tested it at his place and didn't report any objections.

[ CC me I am not subscribed to linux-kbuild or linux-kernel ]
[ CC Nick ]
Unfortunately, I do not find my initial posting which has all information.
I add the link to the thread on linux-kbuild ML.
So, I gave you as much information as I have (linux-config, make-line
etc.) and you write "everything works fine"?
What do you mean by "everything" - different compressors and none?
Is that working "fine"?
What build environment do you use?
Here: Debian/testing AMD64.
Did you try with...
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5=y
CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD=y
...Kconfigs enabled?
As said I use builddeb from scripts directory to generate my Debian packages.
Any chance you can test with builddeb?
I have enabled Clang-LTO Kconfig.
Tried with Clang-LTO Kconfig?
This worked *before* and *after*...
kbuild: add support for zstd compressed modules
kbuild: remove CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS (CC Nick as he is listed as a
reviewer here)
... not within my build-environment.
For me this is a *regression*.

I originally posted the patch in a different form [1] even before Masahiro's changes.
I've been testing this solution since December last year and posted it in March this year,
after I made sure everything was working fine. This patch was tested by Oleksandr and he also didn't report any objections. [2]
Masahiro notified me about the planned changes [3] and asked me to resend this patch, adjusted to those changes, which I did.
My current logs:
lucjan@archlinux ~ $ zgrep CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT is not set
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES=y
lucjan@archlinux ~ $ zgrep CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD=y
CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD_LEVEL=19
Pay no attention to CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD_LEVEL as this is not in the upstream, it's an additional patch I use.
The only difference - I don't use clang. Maybe those who use will comment on this.
I relied on the opinions of Oleksander and a dozen other users who reported no errors in using zstd module compression.

I am a big fan of ZSTD and have it as default in all available Linux
Kconfigs and Debian's initramfs-tools.
So, I am highly interested in getting this fixed.
Unfortunately, I have thrown away my yesterday's Clang-LTO build and
switched to Clang-CFI with builddeb - should do handle the same way.
I see three iwlwifi.ko (as an example):
$ LC_ALL=C ll drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko
-rw-r--r-- 1 dileks dileks 8.2M Apr 9 11:07
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko

BuildID[sha1]=78d593f4fd2b8efe81caeb8f1ea729107a33e244, with
debug_info, not stripped
That iwlwifi.ko with debug-info is optimized when moving to
debian/linux-image-dbg directory:
$ LC_ALL=C ll debian/linux-image-dbg/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/5.12.0-rc6-5-amd64-clang12-cfi/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko

BuildID[sha1]=78d593f4fd2b8efe81caeb8f1ea729107a33e244, with
debug_info, not stripped
And think it's shrunk down and included debian/linux-image directory:
$ LC_ALL=C ll debian/linux-image/lib/modules/5.12.0-rc6-5-amd64-clang12-cfi/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko

I speculate both iwlwifi.ko below debian directory should be ZSTD-compressed.
Fact is the one with debug-info is done correctly.
Might be builddeb script needs a special treatment.

OK, I see (sorry Gmail truncates my paste of snippet).
We need to add in this block a CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_XXX handling:
[ scripts/package/builddeb ]
#159: if is_enabled CONFIG_MODULES; then
...
#184: fi
Maybe other scripts in scripts/package/ directory, too.
What do you say Masahiro?
I have to admit I never used any compression for kernel-modules before
and after recent changes in <kbuild.git#kbuild>.
