Subject: [PATCH] efi/libstub/fdt: Standardize the names of EFI stub parameters
From: Shannon Zhao <shannon.zhao@...aro.org>
These EFI stub parameters are used to internal communication between EFI
stub and Linux kernel and EFI stub creates these parameters. But for Xen
on ARM when booting with UEFI, Xen will create a minimal DT providing
these parameters for Dom0 and Dom0 is not only Linux kernel, but also
other OS (such as FreeBSD) which will be used in the future. So here
we plan to standardize the names by dropping the prefix "linux," and
make them common to other OS. Also this will not break the compatibility
since these parameters are used to internal communication between EFI
stub and kernel.
Signed-off-by: Shannon Zhao <shannon.zhao@...aro.org>
---
Look at [1] for the discussion about this in Xen ML. The purpose of this
patch is to standardize the names to make Linux ARM kernel work on Xen
with UEFI. Also it hopes other OS(e.g. FreeBSD), which will be used as
Dom0 on Xen, could support this mechanism as well.
