Message-Id: <200612021248.22791.alon.barlev@gmail.com>
Date: Sat, 2 Dec 2006 12:48:22 +0200
From: Alon Bar-Lev <alon.barlev@...il.com>
To: linux-arch@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH 01/26] Dynamic kernel command-line - common
1. Rename saved_command_line into boot_command_line, mark
as init disposable.
2. Add dynamic allocated saved_command_line.
3. Add dynamic allocated static_command_line.
4. During startup copy:
boot_command_line into saved_command_line.
arch command_line into static_command_line.
5. Parse static_command_line and not
arch command_line, so arch command_line may
be freed.
