[PATCH v2 6/7] cmdline: Gives architectures opportunity to use generically defined boot cmdline manipulation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Most architectures have similar boot command line manipulation
options. This patchs adds the definition in init/Kconfig, gated by
CONFIG_HAVE_CMDLINE that the architectures can select to use them.

In order to use this, a few architectures will have to change their
CONFIG options:
- riscv has to replace CMDLINE_FALLBACK by CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER
- architectures using CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERRIDE or
CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERWRITE have to replace them by CONFIG_CMDLINE_FORCE.

Architectures also have to define CONFIG_DEFAULT_CMDLINE.
