This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled efi/libstub: fix efi_parse_options() ignoring the default command line to the 6.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: efi-libstub-fix-efi_parse_options-ignoring-the-defau.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 394d7a55630e3ee623197cd87b6c773833a9eb92 Author: Jonathan Marek <jonathan@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Oct 13 01:11:56 2024 -0400 efi/libstub: fix efi_parse_options() ignoring the default command line [ Upstream commit aacfa0ef247b0130b7a98bb52378f8cd727a66ca ] efi_convert_cmdline() always returns a size of at least 1 because it counts the NUL terminator, so the "cmdline_size == 0" condition is never satisfied. Change it to check if the string starts with a NUL character to get the intended behavior: to use CONFIG_CMDLINE when load_options_size == 0.
