#1661737 — [PATCH 13/15] perf tests: Decompress kernel module before objdump

Subject[PATCH 13/15] perf tests: Decompress kernel module before objdump
Message-ID<tQdMS-1yv-19@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

If a kernel modules is compressed, it should be decompressed before
running objdump to parse binary data correctly.  This fixes a failure of
object code reading test for me.
