The original version of Squashfs used gzip compression, although Linux kernel 2.6.34 added support for LZMA [11] and LZO compression, [12] Linux kernel 2.6.38 added support for LZMA2 compression (which is used by xz), [13] Linux kernel 3.19 added support for LZ4 compression, [14] and Linux kernel 4.14 added support for Zstandard compression.

zlib (/ ˈ z iː l ɪ b / or "zeta-lib", / ˈ z iː t ə ˌ l ɪ b /) [2] [3] is a software library used for data compression as well as a data format. [4] zlib was written by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler and is an abstraction of the DEFLATE compression algorithm used in their gzip file compression program. zlib is also a crucial component of many software platforms, including Linux, macOS ...
