From cae118b6acc309539b33339e846cbb19187c164c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Deacon Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2021 13:49:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Drop support for CMDLINE_EXTEND The documented behaviour for CMDLINE_EXTEND is that the arguments from the bootloader are appended to the built-in kernel command line. This also matches the option parsing behaviour for the EFI stub and early ID register overrides. Bizarrely, the fdt behaviour is the other way around: appending the built-in command line to the bootloader arguments, resulting in a command-line that doesn't necessarily line-up with the parsing order and definitely doesn't line-up with the documented behaviour. As it turns out, there is a proposal [1] to replace CMDLINE_EXTEND with CMDLINE_PREPEND and CMDLINE_APPEND options which should hopefully make the intended behaviour much clearer. While we wait for those to land, drop CMDLINE_EXTEND for now as there appears to be little enthusiasm for changing the current FDT behaviour.
