Please, don't do it this way.
__setup() has icky semantics which are only used in three places (ide,
ppc64's eeh, and um's eth). The string is a prefix and the rest of the
parameter is handed to the fn as an arg. Meaning misspellings aren't
usually caught, and accidental name reuse is hard to catch.
Secondly, we already have a parser in the kernel.
I like the idea of cleaning up saved_command_line crap: ideally
the archs would just assign to a global "command_line" var, and
anyone wanting to write to it would make their own copies.
How's this version, instead? If you agree, I'll produce a merged
version.
Thanks!
Rusty.
Name: Merge __early_param() with __setup code
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested on 2.6.5-rc3
The __early_param implementation added yet another commandline parser
to the kernel. Try just overloading the __setup() code insteadm and
fix up the semantics (require exact match, hand args in two pieces, fn
returns void).
