The patch titled
i386: 2048-byte command line
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
i386-2048-byte-command-line.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: i386: 2048-byte command line
From: Alon Bar-Lev <alon.barlev@xxxxxxxxx>
Current implementation allows the kernel to receive up to 255 characters from
the bootloader. While the boot protocol allows greater buffers to be sent.
In current environment, the command-line is used in order to specify many
values, including suspend/resume, module arguments, splash, initramfs and
more.
255 characters are not enough anymore.
After edd issue was fixed, and dynammic kernel command-line patch was
accepted, we can extend the COMMAND_LINE_SIZE without runtime memory
requirements.
