Compress every kernel module with xz (lzma), to make more free space in the rootfs. Before: ``` $ sudo du -s /usr/lib64/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/ 90472 /usr/lib64/modules/5.8.11-flatcar/kernel/ $ df /usr Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/usr 1007760 916024 39720 96% /usr ``` After: ``` $ sudo du -s /usr/lib64/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/ 26908 /usr/lib64/modules/5.8.11-flatcar/kernel/ $ df /usr Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/usr 1007760 845468 110276 89% /usr ```
Now that Kernel modules are compressed with xz, the sys-apps/kmod utility also needs to be built with xz/lzma supported.
