[PATCH 2/2] of: fdt: Honor CONFIG_CMDLINE* even without /chosen node, take 2

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

 



I do not read a strict requirement on /chosen node in either ePAPR or in
Documentation/devicetree. Help text for CONFIG_CMDLINE and
CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND doesn't make their behavior explicitly dependent on
the presence of /chosen or the presense of /chosen/bootargs.

However the early check for /chosen and bailing out in
early_init_dt_scan_chosen() skips CONFIG_CMDLINE handling which is not
really related to /chosen node or the particular method of passing cmdline
from bootloader.

This leads to counterintuitive combinations (assuming
CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND=y):

a) bootargs="foo", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline=="foo bar"
b) /chosen missing, CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline==""
c) bootargs="", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline==" bar"

Rework early_init_dt_scan_chosen() so that the cmdline config options are
always handled.
